Check Judgments Online - Trust Online developed by Registry Trust
Trust Online has been developed by Registry Trust. The non-profit company which gathers information from six jurisdictions, including the Register of Judgments, Orders and Fines for England and Wales under contract to the Lord Chancellor.
All the information held by Registry Trust is now available to the public online for a fee of £8. The database contains over six million registrations, some dating back six years. CCJs, high court judgments, fines defaults, child support liability orders and administration orders are available.
Scotland, Ireland, N Ireland, Isle of Man, Jersey court judgments and decrees are on the searchable register.
Re: Check Judgments Online - Trust Online developed by Registry Trust
Just noticed this thread, before anyone gets too over enthusiastic about this Non-profit making organisation just understand exactly what it is.
This is an organisation set up by Malcolm Hurlston. The very same Mr Hurlston who set up the CCCS charity which helps so many thousands of people in debt (and a good job they do too ).
The Registry Trust as stated above by UKactivator gathers CCJ - county court Judgment information from all those jurisdictions which the likes of you and me get if we don't pay our debt -AND THEN THEY SELL THAT INFORMATION TO THE SUB-PRIME MARKET BROKERS!
I have a business, so I wrote to Registry Trust and posing as a potential buyer of this information asked for a price list. £80,000
Now these sub prime lenders and brokers (although there are not so many as there used to be post crunch) used this information to send out those flyers you get through the door offering loans, sub-prime loans, because no high street lender will give a loan if you have a CCJ. Just do an SAR on any leaflet sender (or just phone and ask) and you'll see where they got your name from.
Once done, the borrowers who are now paying much higher interest rates and as we read on here, suffering tremedous pressures and fees and so on from the lenders get themselves into more debt as a result of these high repayment charges and pop off up the road to the CCCS charity to get help.
All not-for profit? The Government pays Registry Trust a Consultancy fee and Mr Hurlston no doubt invoices through his own consultancy a nice fat fee each month too. Still not for profit? £80k for a list of ccj holders? Still not for profit? Yeah, pull the other one.
To cap all that Mr Hurlston very kindly sat on a panel of Judges for the Credit Today awards to select the debt collection Agency of the Year a few years ago.
See how it all works?
Teach your kids to live without debt. It's a rocky road to ruin from the minute they open an account. Control, that's all this is about - they want to control YOU!
