Court Enforcement Services Avis 

very poor service, refused to enforce collection due to "claimed" mental health issues then want me to pay £90 as they wouldnt persue claim, they cancelled the collection NOT ME! but still had to pay . WATCH THE SMALL PRINT. no collection of debt and a bill! Now further debt...

Very impressed. Highly recommend.

CES promptly and professionally recovered in full debt owed to us by ex-tenants who ignored Court Orders.

Hope not to be in this position again, but would turn straight to CES if we are.

Updated 28/7 - Finally this company has done what I have paid them to do and recovered my debt in full. It shouldn’t take me having to write this review to get the job done………….Very slow service. Allegedly the debt collection agents visited my debtor at his home but he was out. Nearly 3 months on no further visits to collect my money or remove goods to the value of the debt despite chasing every week.

Absolutely recommend this company
Does exactly what it says on the tin.
Hopefully I’ll not be needing to use them again .
however I’d have no hesitation if a further situation should ever arise .
THANK YOU court enforcement services 👌👍🙌

can’t fault court enforcement service. they took all the stress away with regards to my claim. hope i never need to use you again but if i do, i know i will be in good hands. thank you

Great service, really simple and easy to use. Katherine Lillie is brilliant too.

They were very helpful in retrieveing the money which was owe to me.

Simple process, quick & effective

This company achieved in a swift and efficient manor the recovery of a debt from one of the most annoying and horrendous women ever, I can only say that the enforcement officers who went there must be some of the best there is I am extremely grateful to them and although i never want to have to go through this process again if i had to i would certainly use them or recommend them to anyone

Employed this company to enforce a High Court Writ on debtor who had ripped us off regarding building work. Whilst I appreciate that nothing is guaranteed regarding reclaiming money this way, this company was totally ineffective to begin with, becoming ridiculous to deal with by the end.

Their agent completely failed to gain entry to the debtors property nor could he get any agreement to repay in writing, even though he, apparently and according to the company, attended the debtor’s property 8 times in 9 months.

I had informed the company and agent very early on that the debtor had goods at his property that they needed to remove to fully or part pay the debt but they repeatedly ignored my information and were unable to do anything other than accept ridiculously low payment amounts, which did not even come close to repaying the debt but, funnily enough, seemed to cover their attendance and other fees.

They then compounded this by ignoring my specific instructions not to accept a new but very low payment plan and, when I was trying to find out who had agreed to this (as they had neglected to inform me of this at all), I received several contradictory emails, each one containing more discrepancies than the last.

Useless customer service and was told completely incorrect information on many occasions.

Also still awaiting some payments that debtor has paid them but they haven’t paid me as well as a payment which appears to have gone missing, but they won’t respond to me when I queried this and now childishly ignore my emails.

Avoid, avoid, avoid as they are useless and contradictory whilst their management think it is acceptable to issue responses to queries and complaints with manipulated and edited documents to hide their errors.

UPDATE: Their reply to my post means absolutely nothing to me and is meaningless drivel. ‘Dissatisfaction’ is such an understatement, I have never dealt with such a useless company before.
Also, the ‘circumstances of the defendant’ are normal, I have never been told any different by CES, it’s just that he is very adept at playing their agent and avoiding payments.
Also, they seem to have completely avoided addressing my ‘missing payment’ situation. So far, they continue to ignore my requests to clarify this situation.
As I say, they are useless and so avoid them like the plague, far better companies out there who are reputable and effective.

Excellent service from start to finish - made a rather complicated process very easy to understand. Kept me fully informed throughout each stage and even better secured payment!

For reasons I won't go into, I needed the help of Court Enforcement Services to retrieve money for me after solicitors & the small claims court were ignored by a company I had unfortunately dealt with. The process was quick & painless. I made an error with the initial paperwork but I was advised accordingly & all was sorted quickly. Thankfully Court Enforcement Services managed to retrieve all of the money that was owed to me & the case is now closed. If you are looking for someone to help get back money that is rightfully yours, this is the company to do it. Thanks guys :)

After 4 years of being a Litigant in Person and spending thousands of pounds to get a court order that the debtor just ignored. Court Enforcement Services visited the debtors business and secured 100% of my money within a few weeks of instructing them. I was kept informed of progress and always felt they genuinely wanted to help me. I can't rate these people highly enough.

Professional at all times, good communication re progress and status of claim. Excellent result, 100% of claim paid with minimum of fuss.

Outstanding service
Would definitely recommend

A huge thank to Irvine Pickett & everyone at court enforcement services- from start to finish a fuss free & up dated frequently service.

I am delighted to report that full payment of our claim against the building company responsible for our attic conversion has been receipted.

Your service to us was one of outstandingly great experience and outcome. When set against the 3 years that this claim has taken to pursue to closure, via the Crown and High Courts, it took you just 4 weeks to enforce payment.

I hope there isn’t a “next time”, but if there is, or if I need to recommend someone to you, I would have no doubt about doing so.

Shockingly poor company. Enforced a writ on an elderly relative with disabilities, registered blue badge holder and who has been recently bereaved by losing his wife to COVID-19.
Visited 3 times and deliberately ignored all legislation, breached confidentiality and removed the individuals only transport even though disabled.
Would not respond to complaints forcing private legal action from relatives. Extorted money from family as they pressured the vulnerable adult and harassed him on 3 attendances for a total of 20 hours when he could not do anything to resolve the matter at the time and by every legal definition is extremely vulnerable.

Directly breached the taking control of goods act, Equality act and GDPR.

THIS COMPANY IS A DISGRACE TO THE INDUSTRY.

They have little regard for professionalism, disregard all relevant legislation and refuse to even respond to complaints.
All relevant matters now being submitted to HCEOA for investigation.

If you want to deal with a company this inappropriate then you will be complicit in poor practices and ultimately will worsen the situation.
If you have a shred of decency stay away.

The actions of this shambolic and disgraceful company should be known far and wide.

They only have a single telephone number that is for payments only - so regardless of the situation you are unable to do anything but let them hurt, harass, extort and cause untold harm to a registered vulnerable adult.

Offers of payment in full after request for surety of time was declined.

Citizens Advice Bureau and National Debt line also informed their agent their actions were illegal yet this company ignored them also -this is the nature of this unprofessional company.
This company deserves nothing other than condemnation for poor practice and Inability to coherently follow their own industry regulations. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

Several days ago I received a letter through the post claiming that I owed a large sum of money to a company I have never heard of nor have ever had any dealings with.

The letter claimed to have a "writ of control" order issued by Northampton County Court on my home address, having spoke to Court Enforcement Services on the phone to explain I believed this was nothing to do with me, I got advised they couldn't do anything and to contact the company who's name was on the letter,

The company on the letter has no phone number, does not reply to emails and has a string of online reviews claiming they are a scam company.

After a lengthy chat with Northampton County Court they told me that Court Enforcement Services did not have a "writ of control" on my address as they claimed to do so in their letter, they told me that the only thing that matched on it was my name, no addresses, no previous addresses absolutely nothing.

The court also told me that Court Enforcement Services cannot claim to have a court order against an address when they do not! Yes you may have a court order against someone with the same name as me, that does not give you the authority to send me a letter claiming to have any form of court judgement against my property when you do not....

If anyone is looking for a debt collection company I wouldn't touch this lot with a barge pole, if anyone is receiving letters from them I would also check with the court that they have even bothered to get the correct person as well.

Shambolic...

I can fully recommend the services provided by Court Enforcement Services. I had almost resigned myself that I would never get my money owed to me by this individual. The County Court Bailiffs proved to be useless so I escalated the case to High Court and I am very pleased I did. I have now recovered the money owed to me.
