The step grandmother wanting to properly verify before making a payment is actually the proper way to do it. She's fully aware of the crazy scams going on out there
one of these 2 bailiffs __ Matthew Heighway, 40, a former bodyguard, was said to have used unlawful violence to force entry _ An officer was heard telling him: "You can't go in without a warrant" to which the bailiff replied "I beg to differ - I'm making entry." __ TV show "Can't Pay? We'll Take It Away!" was arrested after he was accused of acting "like a burglar" whilst collecting a £10,000 debt at a country manor house. ] what they do is basically door to door collection agents, they would get shot if it was in the u.s.
@@edgarfleming9308 These guys are High Court enforcement officers, that is, they are officers of the Court. Not sure what the equivalent term would be in the US, but they are very different to ordinary commercial collection agents. They are executing a writ of control (aka a writ of fieri facias) issued by the Court. They can force entry into commercial premises, and they can force entry to a residence if there are goods under control there. They actually have fairly wide (although not unlimited) power to seize goods. High Court enforcement officers are only dealing with writs issued by the Court; not with common personal or commercial debts. And you're right, fortunately the UK does not have America's insane gun culture. The UK has around 0.02 gun deaths per 100,000 population, while the US has around 12.2 gun deaths per 100,000. In fairness to the US, it's not the worst in the world - the rate of gun deaths is higher in Venezuela.
Yes, and some retards even think that's so professional. Real low IQ short term thinking. The reality is that every time you let people get away with things like that, the law loses some of it's stature, and somewhere down the road it will have none. That's when the local pimp / pusher rules the street you live in, and just takes your kids 'out for the night'... and it's hell exactly for the manginas who think being so loose is so cool.
Who allows their parking tickets to become over 2,000 pounds? I honestly feel sorry for the wife. Her husband seriously needs to man up and be accountable.
People have low points in life, and not everyone can be as pius as you . Its unreasonable to judge a persons character negatively, simply because he/she is out of work.
That father and son are just oversized toddlers. Most people learn that throwing a tantrum, being defiant, making threats and name calling doesn't fix anything. Do they really think the enforcement agents will say "you WERE going to have to pay off this debt but since you said no🖕 I'll just throw out the writ" 🤦
Michelle Hertzberg that’s like high bail to never sign bail and put something of value cause More times then not they end up going back to jail and losing bail
U got that right. I sign a paper for my brother as he couldn't stay in his apt as his wife left and his disability payment would pay the rent but his rental agreement said he had to have two times the rent it he would be kicked out. He couldn't stay with me as I live upstairs and he was in a wheelchair. Long story short his wife came to stay for a week after my poor brother died and agreed with the mgr to pay for the week she was there. Got $ from all his tools and two vehicles and skipped town after the funeral. They came after me as she told them she wasn't going to pay the week she was there. Ugh. I got collected and they came after me. Only thing that saved my butt is my bankruptcy so they apologized and backed off so I didn't have to pay $263.00. the sister in law got the nerve to ask to stay with me. I told her never call again and blocked her number. Disgusting ppl.
Speak for yourself. I got my mon to consign as a guarantor two times, when I was around 20. Both times I paid all the money eventhough that would mean I eat only bread and mayonaisse that month, if necessary. My mom helped me, that doesn't mean I'm gonna leave her with debt.
well if your talking about the ann situation it’s totally understandable why she didn’t want to pay cash, if someone called me over the phone asking for 3k in cash id be pretty wary too
@@brando12343 you mean when you family phones you because of a high court order and the high court baliff even reveal his identity, you'd still be wary? They literally named her stepson as well.
It's pretty shitty if you are scammed into beeing Guarantor for someone elses debt. I think you are allowed to be emotional about it ! Never ever become or aquire someone else to be a Guarantor! Or as we say in Germany "Den Bürgen sollst du würgen" = "You should chocke out the guarantor" There is no advantage for involving a guarantor when you get into debt, it just enxtends the bad luck to more people if the debter get's insolvent. Only the banks profit from guarantors. It's a big scam. And helps no one.
Stop fucking lying. Bailiffs are just an regular company acting on behalf of an court. They are basically no one, you can keep your doors locked and tell them to fuck off and come back again with an warrant, writ is not one.
Also, over here THEY have to prove that things are mine. As long as they are not under my name in some registry, they can fuck off and not touch a thing.
@mylife But these guys are not bailiffs. They are High Court Enforcement Agents and they have greater powers than bailiffs. In certain circumstances, and provided the correct legal procedures have been followed and the paperwork is in order, they CAN force entry into your property and seize goods.
I cannot believe these parents that allow their kids act like thugs, act badly themselves and don’t expect their kids to take any responsibility at all!! Shameful and disgusting!!!!!
In America they touched those bailiffs, they would be in cuffs and off to jail. Especially attacking him like that. Tasers, handcuffs, the whole 9 yards
It looks to me after watching so many of these that the bailiffs don't want to prosecute as long as there is no serious bodily injury (which hasn't happened). They just want their money, then they get paid. Bringing charges against a minor tussle where no one is hurt isn't worth their time to file charges and go to court.
@@southeirut4773 True, but for the last 10 years since the crash (give or take a year) there are 2 sides to the equation...borrowers and lenders. Some People took out massive loans for which they should not have done and the creditors should not have given the loans in the first place. Both sides took the risk and both messed up.Yes we know the argument...the banks should have been more responsible and the people too.
@@lawsonj39 He could have fallen on hard times but A. He didn’t warn his mother how far the debt had progressed and B. When they called Gerda or whatever her name was the mum was saying ‘Please Gerda, I will pay you back’, but Brandon should be paying it.
Sadly in the UK they don’t care, here in the USA the worst would happen if Brandon didn’t pay and his mom had co-signed is they’d ding her credit and turn her in to collections, but they’d never show up at her house taking stuff. A secured loan where you put up select assets for collateral is another good option here where if payment defaults the item financed is repossessed and sold, nothing else. It hurts your credit rating BUT you’ll only lose what was put up for security, not a bunch of other things.

Imagine someone coming to your house and telling you that someone you know is in debt and if YOU can't prove that things in YOUR house are yours with receipts, they will take it.
I'm guessing it's someone that lives in your home or if you signed as a guaranteed, I do know that in mexico if someone owes and somehow put that they live in your house even if it's not true they still want to collect even if you have no idea who that is. So retarted
@@PatrickFDolan What's primitive is scum who don't pay your debts.

In your system what would happen? "We'll seize this car" "not my car" "oh Ok then have a good day" yeah real fucking great system that....
The son should have been paying his car loan out monthly , It’s his responsibility . These enforcement agents should not have to chase these people for payments.If they. Can’t afford to pay for it, they. should. not buy it.
@@liztrainer895 I bought a new car once AFTER doing the math and realizing I could only get by doing $200-something a month but it would take about a year. I didn't tell the dealer I could pay in full, LOL. It sometimes helps to have access to a little extra cash and use your job paychecks to recover after the monthly payment. Not everyone can pay for a car outright but sometimes, the dealer really wants to make a deal (hey those cars aren't moving themselves and that's why they have "manufacturer-authorized discounts"!). That's why some people go with monthly payments. I made sure I could pay the car in full within six months if I really had to but I stuck with the monthly payments. That was the catch for getting massively discounted Lojack and a free spoiler with the car. But it was a nice looking car.
That poor mum that was the guarantor, she just did a favour for her son and he put her in such an unfair situation and caused so much unnecessary stress
He must be such a loser. His wife didn't even phone him, just told his mother to ring her husband's step grandmother. And she paid up. I doubt she will ever be repaid, Brendon wouldn't pay his bill, and he won't pay the stepgrandmother either.
I find this totally fascinating we have a form of this in the United states but nothing like you do and the professionalism all these people that are collecting the debt is amazing hats off cheers.
It just goes to show, you can live in a fancy house and own several cars and still swear , curse and use violence when you don't get your own way. It's all great on the outside but, when push comes to shove, both father and son are just bullies. I feel sorry for the wife/mother who has to live with them.
Keepin' up with the Joneses just goes to show you, THE JONESES ARE BROKE! 😂 - Dave Ramsey.... But to your point, that's sickening. I'd be ashamed to put my mother through anything close to that mess.
This is exactly why you don’t envy what people have. People put themselves in so much money trouble to “look” a certain way. Be content with what you have. 😌
The first two father and son were just a lovely pair... Father comes to the door with an attitude... they're both told the son legally owes money... and the sons response is to just say "I'll just go bankrupt" as if that's an easy thing that just solves everything, and the fathers reaction is to.... laugh??? Rather than just pay the money you OWE to someone... they work together to find ways not to do that. Great example there dad 👌.
What I don't understand is how they were going to seize the Alfa and then another car and more property, the Alfa is worth more than 4000£ surely, wouldn't that cover the debt then
@James Price they say they only get like 20-30% of the estimated value at the auctions. (I really want to find these auctions. It seems like you can get really cheap stuff) so they make sure to take more than enough to cover the debt so they don't have to come back. 🤷♂️ I'm not sure about the US law on these things, so I can't speak to that, but... that doesn't make a lot of sense to me. The UK law makes perfect sense. If the law was the other way around, (meaning the agents had to prove who owns what) then debtors could just claim everything doesn't belong to them. "This car and that TV... and... that snowmobile, they all belong to my mom!" Of course, everyone would just claim they don't own anything to avoid paying. THEY put themselves in this situation so now the responsibility of proving who owns what falls on them. Thats their fault.
@@Qaor If you search Bristol Car Auctions, Police Auctions or East Anglia Car auctions you will find these cars turn up there. Not all the cars will be seized examples mind, obviously people also just decide to auction their cars sometimes, the way to tell is usually (if the auction doesn't state they are) that they will be missing basically all the information, not just the service history but also things like the V5c, which will be a bit of an admin pain and cost you about £50 more on top to get new docs from the DVLA. Can be a great bargain because sometimes you get a tasty low mileage motor which had FSH for less than 50% of the true value, but sometimes you buy something that's shagged and barely running, didn't have any work done on it ever etc. It's all about how confident you are in looking at a car, run the engine, and putting your money where your mouth is because at these auctions they don't let you take it for a test drive because there are usually about 5-10 people interested in each car and they've got 50-100 to sell per day.
@@Qaorfault of the debtor yes. Not the fault of the person who simply owns the property the debtor lives in. Fact of the matter is most people can’t prove what they own. Very few people keep receipts/records of what they own.
It still perplexes me to see that people can borrow money and choose not to pay and then freak out when someone wants the money they borrowed back. Even if I owe someone 5 dollars I pay it back as fast as possible so that I dont worry about oweing someone anything
I dont know what is worse: the debts or the way debtors (and family/friends) behave towards these brave, professional, and well behaved men. The woman on the phone (second case) really pissed me off People spend their money on nice stuff but none have money to pay fines.

I notice that they very rarely actually take stuff away. The debtors cough it up most times. Good job, Bailiffs! Amazing how often people leave evidence against themselves just lying around.
What I don't understand as an American, with the first collection attempt, how they were going to take two cars and continue to seize property, surely one of the vehicles was worth more than the debt it was only 4000£

People are just so incredibly stupid - I love it when they think it´s a threat if they call the police. They are all arrogant and think they are so clever, that they alone can beat the law. I have so much respect for these guys who do their job calmly and politely
I feel so incredibly bad for the older lady at about 15:10 and onwards. Prime example of how kindness to the undeserving can screw even the nicest people over. I hope she learned to never ever take out a loan or sign anything as a guarantor again. So sad.
Reminds me of the story of Rumeal Robinson. He was adopted by a nice lady when his mother didn't want him. The poor lady ended up almost losing her house because of his debts.
I love how the actual debter had absolutely no part in the resolution, it went from mommy, to the wife and them to mom in law/grandmom not sure wich. They never even called or notified HIM that had taken the loan & was obligated to actually pay it..ofc no one questions that.. WTF
Wife: Don't you worry, he will make payment. Bailiff: Okay great we will take payment then. Wife: But he hasn't got any money at the moment. Bailiff: Well then he can't make payment then can he.
Im a loan officer here in the us and anytime someone comes with a guarantor (cosigner), I always let them know not to sign unless they can manage the payments on their own if the primary defaults. That guy is a mad man putting his mom through that.
This is fascinating. The United States has nothing but to file for Bankruptcy when a person cannot pay their debts. The other punishment for not paying is poor credit (and I think without credit, its very difficult to get through in life). I wish we had your system of collection since its quite common that people win civil lawsuits against one another. The problem is, there's absolutely NO way for any Judge, or law enforcement agency to COLLECT those debts owed. Its refreshing to know that the U.K. no longer has" Debtors Prison." That institution was a bit harsh.
Dad has hidden his assets in "his company". Although he didn't do it very well with still having son's name on vehicles. Also it was also too late for bankruptcy to clear it. You do that before your debt gets taken to court. Bankruptcy court can't over rule previous court money judgements.
worryingly, the kind that has a business and no doubt borrows from banks, warehouses, suppliers and god only knows what else. be interesting to know their company name and look on companies house.
Just found these videos and I'm hooked. I use to be a county constable and lucky I had only one time where I had to go in and check for property. Same situation dude lived with parents and when I formed the parents they actually helped me. Told their son its their house and I was free to look for the property. I really admire these guys for what they do.
The Michael case highlights the glaring difference between the UK and the USA. A title of ownership proves who owns an auto in the US, it also shows a lien if there is one. A registration also shows registered owner. Insurance does nothing but cover people who "can" drive an auto. That doesn't even mean they "DO" drive said auto.
I don't know where you live, but here in Europe it's called a credit card because the card has *available* credit. If you hand over any form of card as payment, the cashier will put it on *debit* unless you explicitly say you want it on *credit.* So I see no evidence here that he used credit to pay just because he said credit card.
@@insertname8042 and I don't know why you're talking because in the UK, where this show is set, a credit card is used to purchase something using a line of credit the bank has authorized for you.

My brother got a huge loan to buy a 'sure-fire gold mine' business, which was prosperous. He tried to get the loan via our parents being guarantors - they said no. I told Mum do NOT put your house up for collateral cos if my bro's business fails, you are homeless. My bro (I think) took out a 2nd mortgage or something on his house, his business failed & he lost his house. He doesn't speak to or contact any of us to this day, even though we all offered him help when we could. Never put your house up as collateral!
More like starting at 1K for MONTHS of neglect, then taken to court and they LOST then they refuse to pay if for MONTHS, now you have interest, court costs etc..... Now you are refusing to pay when the sheriffs show up, they then have to HIRE ANOTHER COMPANY to remove goods in a van or truck. So hiring these people costs money, around 400 or so depending on how many people, what type of trucks, etc... Any who, just wanted to share from what I have seen watching all of these =D

A guarantor is required on all rental agreements. Did your parents or older siblings not agree to become guarantors the first time you moved out of the house? Or are you living in your parents' basement like a little bitch? You could be earning 100k an year, a guarantor is still required on all rental agreements. If no one becomes a guarantor for anyone, no one would be able to rent or take loans.
It never ceases to amaze me how LONG it takes for the cops to show up in England. In Canada or America if you call with imminent threat to yourself you'll have 2-3 cars there with in 5 -10 mins TOPS and those cops will be looking for a fight at that too. So either England needs MORE cops or North America is a Police Continent.
In the USA we have called the cops 3 times, for things like strangers sitting on our porch, big firecrackers going off in April, and a woman falling off a bike onto her head. Oh, and called for medical assistance twice. They arrived within 90 seconds each time. Can't complain about that response time.

I sign a paper for my brother as he couldn't stay in his apt as his wife left and his disability payment would pay the rent but his rental agreement said he had to have two times the rent it he would be kicked out. He couldn't stay with me as I live upstairs and he was in a wheelchair. Long story short his wife came to stay for a week after my poor brother died and agreed with the mgr to pay for the week she was there. Got $ from all his tools and two vehicles and skipped town after the funeral. They came after me as she told them she wasn't going to pay the week she was there. Ugh. I got collected and they came after me. Only thing that saved my butt is my bankruptcy so they apologized and backed off so I didn't have to pay $263.00. the sister in law got the nerve to ask to stay with me. I told her never call again and blocked her number. Disgusting ppl.
Speak for yourself. I got my mon to consign as a guarantor two times, when I was around 20. Both times I paid all the money eventhough that would mean I eat only bread and mayonaisse that month, if necessary. My mom helped me, that doesn't mean I'm gonna leave her with debt.
“How can I pay this debt?”
“What are you stupid or something!?”

It's pretty shitty if you are scammed into beeing Guarantor for someone elses debt. I think you are allowed to be emotional about it !
Never ever become or aquire someone else to be a Guarantor!
Or as we say in Germany "Den Bürgen sollst du würgen" = "You should chocke out the guarantor"
There is no advantage for involving a guarantor when you get into debt, it just enxtends the bad luck to more people if the debter get's insolvent. Only the banks profit from guarantors. It's a big scam. And helps no one.

In Germany you would go to jail for attacking a Bailiff. And luckily the police needs 5-10min to arrive and not 20-40min.
ja ne is klar ja ne is klar
Stop fucking lying. Bailiffs are just an regular company acting on behalf of an court. They are basically no one, you can keep your doors locked and tell them to fuck off and come back again with an warrant, writ is not one.
Also, over here THEY have to prove that things are mine. As long as they are not under my name in some registry, they can fuck off and not touch a thing.
@mylife
But these guys are not bailiffs. They are High Court Enforcement Agents and they have greater powers than bailiffs.
In certain circumstances, and provided the correct legal procedures have been followed and the paperwork is in order, they CAN force entry into your property and seize goods.

Unless they were Muslim or flaming feminists, they may get away with it then.
in america those bailifs (private entity) on your property would be in body bags
It looks to me after watching so many of these that the bailiffs don't want to prosecute as long as there is no serious bodily injury (which hasn't happened). They just want their money, then they get paid. Bringing charges against a minor tussle where no one is hurt isn't worth their time to file charges and go to court.

Sadly in the UK they don’t care, here in the USA the worst would happen if Brandon didn’t pay and his mom had co-signed is they’d ding her credit and turn her in to collections, but they’d never show up at her house taking stuff. A secured loan where you put up select assets for collateral is another good option here where if payment defaults the item financed is repossessed and sold, nothing else. It hurts your credit rating BUT you’ll only lose what was put up for security, not a bunch of other things.

@@liztrainer895 I bought a new car once AFTER doing the math and realizing I could only get by doing $200-something a month but it would take about a year. I didn't tell the dealer I could pay in full, LOL. It sometimes helps to have access to a little extra cash and use your job paychecks to recover after the monthly payment. Not everyone can pay for a car outright but sometimes, the dealer really wants to make a deal (hey those cars aren't moving themselves and that's why they have "manufacturer-authorized discounts"!). That's why some people go with monthly payments. I made sure I could pay the car in full within six months if I really had to but I stuck with the monthly payments. That was the catch for getting massively discounted Lojack and a free spoiler with the car. But it was a nice looking car.
That poor mum that was the guarantor, she just did a favour for her son and he put her in such an unfair situation and caused so much unnecessary stress
He must be such a loser. His wife didn't even phone him, just told his mother to ring her husband's step grandmother. And she paid up. I doubt she will ever be repaid, Brendon wouldn't pay his bill, and he won't pay the stepgrandmother either.

The first two father and son were just a lovely pair...
Father comes to the door with an attitude... they're both told the son legally owes money... and the sons response is to just say "I'll just go bankrupt" as if that's an easy thing that just solves everything, and the fathers reaction is to.... laugh???
Rather than just pay the money you OWE to someone... they work together to find ways not to do that. Great example there dad 👌.
What I don't understand is how they were going to seize the Alfa and then another car and more property, the Alfa is worth more than 4000£ surely, wouldn't that cover the debt then
Also with English law you have to prove ownership? In the states it's the other way around.
@James Price they say they only get like 20-30% of the estimated value at the auctions. (I really want to find these auctions. It seems like you can get really cheap stuff) so they make sure to take more than enough to cover the debt so they don't have to come back. 🤷♂️
I'm not sure about the US law on these things, so I can't speak to that, but... that doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
The UK law makes perfect sense. If the law was the other way around, (meaning the agents had to prove who owns what) then debtors could just claim everything doesn't belong to them. "This car and that TV... and... that snowmobile, they all belong to my mom!" Of course, everyone would just claim they don't own anything to avoid paying. THEY put themselves in this situation so now the responsibility of proving who owns what falls on them. Thats their fault.
@@Qaor If you search Bristol Car Auctions, Police Auctions or East Anglia Car auctions you will find these cars turn up there.
Not all the cars will be seized examples mind, obviously people also just decide to auction their cars sometimes, the way to tell is usually (if the auction doesn't state they are) that they will be missing basically all the information, not just the service history but also things like the V5c, which will be a bit of an admin pain and cost you about £50 more on top to get new docs from the DVLA.
Can be a great bargain because sometimes you get a tasty low mileage motor which had FSH for less than 50% of the true value, but sometimes you buy something that's shagged and barely running, didn't have any work done on it ever etc. It's all about how confident you are in looking at a car, run the engine, and putting your money where your mouth is because at these auctions they don't let you take it for a test drive because there are usually about 5-10 people interested in each car and they've got 50-100 to sell per day.
@@Qaorfault of the debtor yes. Not the fault of the person who simply owns the property the debtor lives in.
Fact of the matter is most people can’t prove what they own. Very few people keep receipts/records of what they own.

This is fascinating. The United States has nothing but to file for Bankruptcy when a person cannot pay their debts. The other punishment for not paying is poor credit (and I think without credit, its very difficult to get through in life). I wish we had your system of collection since its quite common that people win civil lawsuits against one another. The problem is, there's absolutely NO way for any Judge, or law enforcement agency to COLLECT those debts owed. Its refreshing to know that the U.K. no longer has" Debtors Prison." That institution was a bit harsh.
"I'll just make myself bankrupt." Dad is there smiling and laughing. What kind of family is that?
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Dad has hidden his assets in "his company". Although he didn't do it very well with still having son's name on vehicles. Also it was also too late for bankruptcy to clear it. You do that before your debt gets taken to court. Bankruptcy court can't over rule previous court money judgements.

"Grab the credit card" Paying debt with more debt.
I don't know where you live, but here in Europe it's called a credit card because the card has *available* credit.

@@fearlessformidableferociou8623 I used to be a bill collector and I despised it. They told us to be harsh and threatening and even lie to ppl about what would happen if they didn’t pay. I quit on principle cuz I’m a compassionate person. Now I’m disabled and living on disability and I tell bill collectors that I lived the game and know the rules.
My brother got a huge loan to buy a 'sure-fire gold mine' business, which was prosperous. He tried to get the loan via our parents being guarantors - they said no. I told Mum do NOT put your house up for collateral cos if my bro's business fails, you are homeless. My bro (I think) took out a 2nd mortgage or something on his house, his business failed & he lost his house. He doesn't speak to or contact any of us to this day, even though we all offered him help when we could. Never put your house up as collateral!
You owed 500 pounds with court cost you now owe 4800 pounds we called a tow truck you owe 5900 pounds .
Well thats what you get if you leave this kind of debts unattended for months, sooner or later they will come for some sort of payment the hard way.
More like starting at 1K for MONTHS of neglect, then taken to court and they LOST then they refuse to pay if for MONTHS, now you have interest, court costs etc..... Now you are refusing to pay when the sheriffs show up, they then have to HIRE ANOTHER COMPANY to remove goods in a van or truck. So hiring these people costs money, around 400 or so depending on how many people, what type of trucks, etc...
Any who, just wanted to share from what I have seen watching all of these =D
Wow that's crazy in America they don't take your stuff they garnish your check
@@susanjoynes6395 Cheque 😉 English folk might not understand your American English.
As usual, crummy house, expensive cars. Nice to see these bums have their priorities straight.
Start moving the tv always creates real action! 😂😂😂
I am just waiting for a bailiff to pick up some guys Xbox. Can you imagine?
Edit: oh shit. About five minutes after I posted this the bailiff said “Xbox 360”
It's important to charge everyone who assaults court bailiffs and similar people just as policy to have a high level of respect when dealing with these people. If people know that shit gets real when they assault a bailiff (like with a police officer), they're more likely to think twice. It's a random Tuesday morning and this guy is getting assaulted with no recourse.
Its also important to show these highway robbers what happens when you force your way into private property like a thug.
Don’t let them in your house in the damn first place
It’s an assault,Michael needed arrested.
Im pretty sure he'd have to press charges
Not everyone is a pussy. The agent wasn't hurt and he realizes people get emotional and do dumb things so he cut the guy a break. I think that is perfectly ok.
I’ve never seen anyone get arrested, I don’t get it!
I blame the father.
@@allisonren3260 Difference here is that it has been filmed, both on the agents' body cams and the TV producers. Plenty of what is known as direct evidence.
How in hell are you clueless to run up 2,000 in parking fines?
came from india... he probably didn't even know there were parking fines to begin with.
still an idiot tho, i mean what type of moron goes to a country without knowing its laws.
@@amerlad he thinks he's still in india where everybody drops their car wherever they want. why is this guy at home and lets his wife do the working.??? scrounger !!!
In his country you can probably dump your car anywhere. For them it's hard to understand we pay for it. Also they don't speak the language so all reminder letters go most likely straight to the bin. Different world.
@Mac Mahan well that's bad too but I probably understand that a bit more than the parking fines. People need to eat and they crave fast food. So they spend money, eat it and that is good until they're hungry again.
How many times do you have to park illegally and get fined until you learn you can't park there? Lol
E M I’m more amazed how the drive on the wrong side of the road....how do you drive a stick using your left hand.
I totally know how this old lady feels... I guaranteed for a friend to get a CC. He maxed the card while I was in the hospital dying then refused to pay back the card. I had to take $1800 from my savings and his parents $2000 to pay off his CC. I will never ever sign for anyone again.
Sorry to hear you died, but I noticed you voted in the last election anyway.
How do you worry about debt when you died in hospital? 🤨
The CC had a max line of $3800? For like...emergency Starbucks?
My set reply when anyone asks me to cosign, "No." I figure if the bank deems them a risk then so do I.
@@ghostofaforgottenweedledying as in was fighting a deadly illness or injury. That’s not exactly rocket science is it
This speaks volumes about a highly civilized society. I'm impressed.
Love that you guys give us follow up on these cases.... Thank you!
When Gerda said : Are you stupid or something? I started laughing so hard that I almost peed in my pants 🤣
She has a point actually. They call like many of those phone call scams.
Honestly, wish we had this sort of agency in America.
The ex girlfriend dodged a bullet there!
A grown man living with his parents. She should have seen this coming.
Michael seems like a real winner..😂
You wouldn’t want to swipe right, that’s for sure. ;)
This show is crazy to me. The enforcement agents constantly leave each other alone, turn their backs to the debtor and are constantly unsafe.
I was thinking the same thing. I laughed when he said his first job was to make sure his colleague was safe.
in Europe people are not that crazy like in the US...
@@mongolz1000 No, they are crazy, just the crazies don't have easy access to weaponry. Every place on this earth has crazy people, please don't just throw nationality into.
@, actually Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, and El Salvador are the highest. Followed by South Africa. But by all means, say that it is America.
It’s because no guns in the UK. It would be a way different job if the worst you might get was a punch in the head.
love that despite how a tough guy person Mat is, he still has a sense of humor.
Yes he soo tough with his 0 self control.. just like a 2y old.. and wouldn't you guess! he calmed down quickly when the "grownups" showed up..
In America... if you owe parking fines, you will not be allowed to register the vehicle the fines are attached to until the fine are paid!!!
Never garanter anything for anyone.
Unless you are ready to pay with cash in your safe.
Er du norsk?
Capital Never
A guarantor is required on all rental agreements. Did your parents or older siblings not agree to become guarantors the first time you moved out of the house? Or are you living in your parents' basement like a little bitch? You could be earning 100k an year, a guarantor is still required on all rental agreements. If no one becomes a guarantor for anyone, no one would be able to rent or take loans.
Never ever
Amazing how quickly payments are made under pressure ,humans are motivations specimens 😉
Never co-sign for anyone. I Lived and learned that along time ago.
“Who owns this? Who runs this?” She then sternly declares, “ME”. Who pays the bills? [crickets]
It never ceases to amaze me how LONG it takes for the cops to show up in England.
In Canada or America if you call with imminent threat to yourself you'll have 2-3 cars there with in 5 -10 mins TOPS and those cops will be looking for a fight at that too.
So either England needs MORE cops or North America is a Police Continent.
Realistically it depends on your location in my area police would come in an hour or so
Lol. In my area an hour is good. They tell you to protect yourself. I have called and 4 hours later one policeman showed up.
Yeah, the us is a police state. And even then its not as reliable everywhere.
In the USA we have called the cops 3 times, for things like strangers sitting on our porch, big firecrackers going off in April, and a woman falling off a bike onto her head. Oh, and called for medical assistance twice. They arrived within 90 seconds each time. Can't complain about that response time.
Love this tv show 👍👍👍
I have been binge-watching.
Interesting show.
Just pay the bill man.
It's funny when you threaten to take their toys, they magically pay up.
Love how they think they're above it all. 🤣
