Under the court rules, Sherforce cannot enforce judgments under £600 or those which
are based on a Consumer Credit Agreement (

for an explanation of this), so instead Sherforce has an alternative.
Sherforce Plus is the answer for creditors who want to use the skills of a Sherforce
Officer but whose debt is too low in value or where the debt is based on a Consumer
Credit Agreement.
Sherforce Plus Recovery Officers have all the skills of Sherforce Enforcement Officers
including negotiating for full payment or a satisfactory offer, and will talk to
the debtor about their circumstances and report back so that creditors can make
informed decisions about what to do next.
Sherforce Plus has the same online reporting system so that creditors can track
the progress of their field visit and Officers will report back to the same high
quality as they do when enforcing a Writ.
All we would say is that Sherforce Plus Recovery Officers do not have the power
to seize or remove goods and we have to be very clear about that. That said, often
the fact that the Officer is at the debtor’s address and is talking to the debtor
about how they intend to pay means the debtor will come up with an offer of payment
which is related to their financial situation.
To take advantage of Sherforce Plus’s services all you have to do is fill in our
online Track Form, print it off and send it to us with our fee in the sum
of £50.00 plus VAT which in total means a payment of £60.00.
