word usage - Verb for someone who refuses to repay money


What's the verb to say the behavior of someone who refuse to repay the money he owed? (Even if he knows it and is able to pay it back.)


As far as I know, there is a commonly used noun which called deadbeat to describe this kind of person, but is there a corresponding verb to describe this kind of behavior (idiomatic one) in English?


How would you say it in real life conversation?
