Still have some questions?

No jargon, acronyms or words to sound smart.
Just payments made quick and easy.

Can the enforcement agent take my goods if I won’t sign anything?

Yes. The regulations do not require your signature or co-operation for goods to be removed or sold.

What goods can enforcement agents take?

The enforcement agent can take control of goods which you own or in which you have a beneficial interest.

Why are you not called bailiffs anymore?

As of the 6th April 2014 new legislation came into force changing our name when working on cases like yours to enforcement agents. We can still take your goods and sell them but the legislation, terminology and fees have changed.

I am disputing the enforcement agent fees

Bristow & Sutor charge fees in accordance with the Taking Control of Goods (Fees) Regulations 2014. Please note the fees are simple and fixed and there is little reason for dispute. Just because you think they are high compared with your original debt or do not want to pay them is not a reason to dispute them.

What is this debt about?

We collect a variety of debts, including Council Tax, Non-Domestic Rates and Penalty Charge Notices (also known as PCNs) for local authorities (councils).

We know that paying off debts can be a pain, so we have made it our mission to ensure that we have various payment options to make sure payments are as easy as possible.
