I spoke to Rachael Ward at Debt Recovery Plus about the debt recovery letter i had received. This related to a parking fine from UK Car Park Management (CPM) that i was twice assured by CPM had been cancelled, instead they passed the fine to Debt Recovery Plus. Rachael has been brilliant, she was very polite, professional and helpful, really not what i was expecting when calling a debt recovery company. Rachael was able to speak with CPM after i provided evidence that i was told the original fine had been cancelled. My case with Debt Recovery Plus has now been closed. Five stars for Rachael, zero stars for CPM. Thank you again Rachael for your help.

Victim of cloned plates - Kiren provided smooth solution.
I had a situation where my plates were cloned and I got tonnes of fines and it was later forwarded to Debt recovery plus to handle.
I spoke with a lovely lady named Kiren who investigated the evidence provided and had the case removed from my name.
Smooth experience. Thank you Kiren

I was emailing a staff member and had no replies even after mutiple emails. i phoned up and got rachael ward who dealt with my case very differently. she was fast at responding and within a week she actually resolved my case which is what i needed to be done in Feb. Rachael was professional, freindly and got the job done. Thank you!

Mike from Debt Recovery was very helpful- I had been receiving communications from debt recovery in regards to a fine issued by Smart parking due to them failing to notify Debt Recovery that they had cancelled my parking notice which then meant I was receiving letters to be taken to court. speaking with Mike and making him aware of what’s been going on, he was very helpful and very apologetic as this shouldn’t have happened, I appreciate all he has done to help and get that cancelled. Many thanks again.

Mike Gibson was extremely helpful and understanding of my frustration with Premier Park Ltd and not with Debt Recovery Plus. He went above and beyond in assisting with my ongoing dispute with the aforementioned parking company.

Is it possible to give zero stars
Is it possible to give zero stars? Agent on the phone threatened me, like, literally threatened me. I then said fine I'll pay today but I won't be able to eat for the rest of the month. They took the payment without hesitation. I had to live for 2 weeks on rice and sauce.
I got a parking ticket because I stayed in a McDonalds for 20 minutes too long in a hire car, so the rental company got the initial period with the ticket, I got the late fees. I had no opportunity to pay the lower fee because I was there in a hire car as I'd travelled over 200 miles to see my friend who was contemplating taking his own life, he desperately needed a friend. We spent the time in the McDonalds. A few months later I get a final notice warning from these creatures (I can only assume they've got their staff brainwashed because they're not human). Left a note on my file which said it would get reviewed, it doesn't, it goes to an empty pot that no-one looks at. They threaten with legal action and talk to you like you're a criminal. I explained how the charge happened as I figured it was worth mentioning I was trying to save someone's life, they threatened to call the police (I'm not joking, I've got this on a recorded transcript).
Bottom line, I wish nothing but the worst for this company and everyone associated with it and I mean that with every ounce of my existence. Absolute scum of the earth and they don't care. I'm not a religious person myself, however the idea that there is a hell for people like this does bring me some comfort.
Will they read this review? Probably not. If they do will they care? No, they'll probably laugh. I hope their families know what they do for work. If anyone I was related to was doing this I'd be embarrassed and ashamed.
