Got You!


Recently one of our Franchise Owners attempted to serve a Court Order on a debtor in his local area. He met the subject at the address provided by the client a couple of times but he insisted he was not the man we were after and was 'sick to the back teeth of people calling round looking for this bloke ......'. He was not a happy man.  Local enquiries suggested it was in fact him but he denied his identity again. 
We informed the client and they decided that as there was strong evidence that it was him, our Manager should letterbox the Order. Unsurprisingly he failed to attend the hearing and a Suspended Committal Order was eventually issued and sent to us for serving.  We did a little more digging and discovered a website page for the man and, handily, a photo that showed that the man we'd peviously met was indeed the right person. Further enquiries revealed that the debtor was a political party candidate in the local elections being held this month.  So our Franchise Owner personally served him at the local polling station!  Priceless.
