I know all the addresses but not there names.

there a little tip in there for the future

If it's £10 I wouldnt bother chasing it other than the normal letters and calls we make.

But yes we add £5 to each letter to cover admin costs and the firms costs.

Some will pay the outstanding minus this, others pay the lot.

just to let you know if you are just adding an extra £5 when sending the letters this wont stand up in court if they decide to fight it Thomas Higgins told me, as your not supposed to do it. only when you go to court would you peruse admin and administration costs

banks charge a fee, electric companies do the same if late for letters don't know the legalities but I guess (say that loosely) they would have checked if this was ok

Ian i know they charge a fee, but want they don't do is send you a solicitors letter saying were going to take u to court if u dont pay within 7 days oh and we added a fiver to your account for it.

if you want to add a charge to the customer.. you need to write to them to inform them first .. then send a letter. because if they owe u 10.00 they can stand up and say well i got a letter saying i owe them £15.00? with no notice or warning that it will be going to that price, just a demand for it to be paid.

The big firms can do it because they have t's and c's stating all the charges for late/non payment etc. we can legally charge a small percentage for late payment but it's tiny.

You can, by law, charge a debt recovery fee after 30 days, or whatever your terms are. Theabove website sets out the gov late payment legislation. You are also entitled to charge interest.

In Surrey? surely not old chap.

Found her house btw, nice lady, moving soon though

[Rogue Trader]

i signed on with them today and sent 7 letters, i had around 20 that i wanted to send a letter to but i think this will only work with a certain kind of debtor. The chav types that dont give a poop will see the letter and throw it in the bin but the middle class bad payers who care about mortgages and credit scores will be the ones for this although my biggest debtor is a builder who im thinking may have seen this type of debt collection method or may have even used it himself to chase his own debtors. Im looking forward to see the result.
