Our in-house specialist tracing agents use an extensive range of databases not available to the general public as well as other resources in order to gather information. This is systematically investigated until we obtain a current, confirmed trace address. We understand that you may have strict regulatory or business deadlines to meet, therefore, you can be confident that our team will resolutely stick to your timescale and budget. Although our team is regularly involved in large volume tracing projects, we are routinely instructed to trace an individual or a small number of people. Regardless of the number of missing debtors you need to find, you will receive scrupulous, personal, and dedicated service.

To find out more about how we can help find missing debtors, please get in touch today.

Case Study

Credit Department and Non-Paying Customers

Each month we conduct debtor tracing enquiries on batches of 10 to 75 customers for the credit control department of a large building supplies merchant. These customers have absconded and have not paid their invoices. We provide our clients with regular reports and a monthly invoice at their request. We locate residential addresses from the last known trading/business addresses and confirm whether the limited companies are still trading or not. This particular client also instructs us to attend the addresses we have located.

We have successfully traced hundreds of debtors for our clients, allowing them to collect tens of thousands of pounds of unpaid invoices that would otherwise have been written off.
