Petition Details

This is a petition to stop private debt collection companies from operating, or have them heaviliy regulated. They are killing people due to the untold stress and heart a h they cause. To date they have no more powers than your friend who knocks. However most say they can break in and take goods.

Additional Information

What I would like is to see government take on private debt collection companies and stop this nonsense for good

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

Private debt collectors have to be authorised by the FCA. We aren't sure how you'd like the regulations changed.

You can find out more about the rules that apply to debt collectors here:

You could start a new petition setting how you would like the rules changed.
