Thanks for sharing the above information - it looks like the only action I will be able to take is on MCOL, to archive the claim now that judgement has been entered/made. MCOL hasn't updated the claim progress since it was originally transferred to Hertford County Count in April.

ok good, thanks, I'll draft the receipt. Regards the judgement, I was wondering if I needed to do any admin to follow up. The judgement form itself didn't advise I needed to take any action in the event of it being fulfilled and I couldn't see anything that placed any obligation on me to notify the court. Would it be for the defendant to validate they have paid it, if they wanted the judgement cleared?

Just catching up on the last few posts - the money banked ok, and is now showing on my account. I did take a copy of the judgement with me as it had crossed my mind regards anti-money laundering protocols but they didn't ask where the money come from, nor did they look at the judgement I handed over. The account it went to has received electronic payments of value in the past so hoping it wont trigger anything this time being cash. Regards the amount being in cash - I did wonder myself if it was stored 'under the mattress' but if the messages from NFS are to believed, it was taken out from Lloyds bank. That said, I don't want there to be a hole in their booking keeping records...should I send a receipt to the accountant for the cash payment?

Update: *drum roll* Royal mail redelivered this morning. Package contained: £20 note x247 £10 note x1 £2 coin x1 £1 coin x1 20p coin x2 2p coin x1 £4,953.42 total... On my way to the bank now to deposit....as long as all the notes bank... its done!

Update: I received a message from NFS to say a missed delivery was the money for the judgement. When I got got home there was a royal mail missed delivery note with redelivery to be attempted tomorrow. Wondering what's in the letter/parcel!? Could this actually be coming to a close?

Mrs P messaged to advise he didn't turn up.

After much repeated insistence they were coming, and me telling them not to, they then said they would be here 7.30am tomorrow. At which time only wife and kids will be home. After 3 times saying not to come, then their further insistence, I called 101 to advise of the situation and that I wanted it logged he has been told not to come. It feels a bit petty but I seriously do not want this guy at my house, period, let alone if I'm not there. This all feels like it's gone a bit silly. He made a comment to say 'good luck with your building work', (I'm having a new extension built currently) so he's clearly actually been to my property in the last couple of days. Payment is due by a week today. If it doesn't arrive then he never had an intention to pay in my eyes and I'll proceed with the 3rd party debt order

After another exchange - I've offered NFS to post a cheque or pay the a cash to a specified account. Either will serve as a receipt and proof of payment. He's being insistent he wants to come this evening, to my house, so I'm even more wary. Good point, I can't verify the notes are good! lol

Update: I've just received a WhatsApp message from NFS: "Are you in later I believe I have to give you some money" Firstly, wasn't expecting that... secondly I'm not in the mood for an confrontation...as it is likely one of us will lose our tempers... I'm going to tell them to send what ever it is they want to send me via registered post - certainly don't want to be giving them my bank details. (still in a bit of shock...unless of course, in the word of Admiral Akbar... "its a trap!") thoughts?

After I wrote it I thought, hmmm I should ask them! lol They replied advising they can only enforce at the address stated on the judgement and would not be able to visit another address (albeit used on invoices) unless it was also a registered business address. On that basis, directing the HCEO to enforce would prove highly unlikely to get any kind of result as there is nothing of value belonging to NFS at the accountants offices (maybe other than their financial books, which I don't think would be of any value or use, even if the HCEO were allowed to take them). I'm not sure if there is a case to transfer the judgement to the director - although it was the director who actually did the job that was in dispute. The only viable route then looks to be a '3rd part debt order'? If one route proves unsuccessful, can I then try the next or is it a one shot deal?

Could the HCEO visit an address that is not the registered business address, if they use that address on business invoices ?

This is their website - I've been exchanging emails with a member of their team after a brief inquiry call (I was referred to them after contacting a more local enforcement company) Award-Winning Debt Collection Bailiffs & High Court Enforcement DCBLTD.COM Over 20 Years of Experience in Ethical Debt Resolution. DCBL Provide Industry-Leading Debt Recovery Bailiffs & High Court Enforcement. If its possible to do both, then I can/will.

I've been in contact with a potential company who I can use as the High Court Enforcement Officer, and have been querying the visitations to collect - the company advise they can only visit the registered address of the business, being their accountant, at which no actual business is conducted nor any property of the company stored. Therefore sending enforcement officers round would prove fruitless, most likely. The enforcement company has suggested a couple of possible options: "...have the county court judgement put into the director's name or a third-party debt order if you have the bank details for the company." Do either of these options sound sensible and would yield a better result? I do have both the director's name and address and the company bank details.

Based on Companies House, they filed accounts up to March 2023 in July. As far as I know they are still trading.
