Does anyone of you know any of those erm old fashioned debt collectors. PM me if you can help.
I think your mate needs to rethink his approach to this problem. The services of any debt collector who uses a bit of 'firm persuasion' is probably not going to come too cheaply and will eat into what's left of the money he's looking to recover . What if it all goes 'tits-up', someone gets badly hurt, it could all come back to your mate?
