This review is specially regarding my experience with an agent called Benjamin - DCO, via live chat, on 6th March.

Previous to this interaction, I found the other members of staff to be rude, pressurising and unhelpful.

Benjamin was the opposite of this. Firstly, he helped me to revise my payment plan, ensuring I could afford what was agreed to. He did this is a professional, polite and reassuring manner. He has been the only positive experience I have had whilst speaking to a member of staff here.

I hope this feedback is passed onto you, because you've genuinely been brilliant 👏

Bristow & Sutor – Concerns Regarding Enforcement Process and Vulnerability Handling This review rel

Bristow & Sutor – Concerns Regarding Enforcement Process and Vulnerability Handling

This review relates to an enforcement matter involving Mr R (identity withheld for privacy reasons).

The case has been escalated to Derby City Council and the Enforcement Conduct Board due to documented concerns regarding procedural handling and statutory compliance.

Key issues raised include:

Enforcement action proceeding on 1 July 2025 despite written communication dated 27 June 2025 indicating the case was on hold.

Application of a £425 compliance fee after vulnerability had been communicated in writing.

Correspondence referencing the potential for a County Court Judgment, which has since been subject to regulatory scrutiny.

Concerns regarding complaint handling and whether internal procedures and vulnerability safeguards were properly applied.

The Head of Complaints previously stated that where systemic issues arise, recommendations for service improvement would be made. However, no communicated outcome of any systemic review has been provided in this case.

The matter is currently under formal review through the Enforcement Conduct Board’s Decision Review Process and has been referred to the Director of Policy and Oversight for consideration.

This review is intended to share a documented experience and raise awareness about the importance of proper hold procedures, vulnerability protections, accurate communication of enforcement powers, and transparent complaint handling.

Still Waiting for Paypoint Barcode

I have been waiting since November 5, 2025, for the Paypoint barcode to make payments. I was told I would only need to wait 7 days, but I'm still waiting for the barcode to make the repayments. This situation has been very stressful regarding the debt.

Frustrating Communication Issues

Efforts to reach out through the provided channels are ignored, followed by reminders regarding your case, only to be met with silence again. Eventually, they escalate matters by sending bailiffs for full collection without any prior discussion.

Poor Communication Skills

They disregard any attempts to reach them through the stated channels, sending reminders about your case only to ignore further contact. Eventually, they resort to sending bailiffs for full collection without attempting to communicate with you first.

Intimidating Behavior

Extremely unprofessional. They initially demanded full payment, and when I explained my financial situation, they insisted on three payments of 400. Even after I stated what I could afford, they dismissed it and threatened to send bailiffs, showing no compassion for my vulnerable situation. This has only increased my anxiety and stress.

Unacceptable Service

Your service is unacceptable, leaving me feeling anxious and intimidated. The financial amounts seem fabricated, and I have received no responses to my complaints. Communication channels are ineffective, and I feel completely disregarded in this situation.
