Where have all of the old fashioned Debt Collectors gone?

If you have documentation - or emails, texts, etc , then I'd use Moneyclaim online - it's the old small claims court. Wouldn't cost you much and in all probability he wouldn't respond. You can then get judgment and get the bailiffs in !

Thanks Monkfish, The sum is £1000 as he was a friend all I have is a few texts of him saying he will pay me next week etc,ya de ya de ya. The money isnt as important as teaching the arsehole a lesson shame Im so old!
