Sundry debts include anything from recovery of housing benefit over-payments to licenses, former tenant arrears for both residential and commercial premises, planning inspection charges and consumer and corporate debt.

We offer a full service for recovery of sundry debts including phone calls, letters and visits to the debtor.

Housing benefit over-payments

During the transition period of claimants moving over to Universal Credit, there will still be claims for Housing Benefit, as well as many overpaid but not yet recovered payments. With over £1 billion worth of housing benefit payments being made each year, Excel Civil Enforcement works with local authorities to recover outstanding over-payments.

Payment options for sundry debts

For debtors we offer a variety of payment options making recovery easier and more achievable.

High Court recovery option for sundry debts

These debts can be handled through debt collection protocols or we can help you escalate recovery through the High Court by transferring the County Court judgment (CCJ) to the High Court for enforcement under a writ of control.

Where recovery is not possible we provide detailed information and advice on further action that you can take.

If you would like to know more about how our parent company, High Court Enforcement Group, can enforce unpaid judgments under a High Court writ of control, please visit their website.
