Staying On Top Of Your Debts

One of the hardest parts about being in debt is that the industry isn’t at all transparent.

One common tactic used by Debt Collectors is contacting you under multiple names and addresses.

Sometimes, it’s for practical reasons, but even then it can be confusing and intimidating. So it’s important to try to keep a level head and research what’s going on. 

Some of the biggest debt collectors in the UK operate under multiple names. 

  • Robinson Way will sometimes contact you under the name Hoist Finance. 
  • Cabot Financial Group recently bought Wescot Credit Services
  • Credit Style communicate as both Credit Style and CST Law. 
  • Lowell Financial also owns Overdales and collects debts under both names. 

In fact, in the case of PRA Group, they’ve been known to use multiple company names. As you can see in the image below.

If you’ve been contacted by a debt collector recently, it’s worth going through your post and emails to check that you haven’t missed anything, just in case they’ve started writing to you under a different name.

FAQs

Here, we answer some of the more common questions about Debt Managers Services Limited, and debt collection agencies in general.

Should I pay Debt Managers Services Limited?
If you are certain that the debt is yours, and you have the necessary funds to pay them in full, you should do this right away. Occasionally, you may be able to get a discount on the debt. They will also stop sending you letters and calling your home, which can be a relief.
What happens if I can’t pay them?
Often, our debts gather to a head of steam when we can ill afford them. If you can’t pay in full, get in touch with them as soon as you can. They may agree to a repayment schedule, where you pay back the debt in instalments.
Will they leave me alone if I ignore them?
Ignoring them won’t make them go away. In fact, it’s likely to have the opposite effect. Debt collection agencies like Debt Managers Services Limited are notoriously persistent, so ignoring them will encourage them to continue to call and send letters to you. Get in touch with them as soon as you can to avoid this.
Can I complain about them?
Yes. If you think that Debt Managers Services Limited hasn’t behaved well in your dealings with them, you can make a complaint. On the Complaints section of their website, they advise you contact them directly with the nature of the complaint. If you are still dissatisfied, you can escalate the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
