So some low life turns up on your doorstep demanding to know who you are and you show them "ID"? I think not.


Here's the correct response:


Debt collector: "We are looking for Mr Smith, is that you"?
You: "No".
Debt collector: "Can you prove that".
You: "No. He doesn't live here, now leave my property and do not come back again".

Sorry, i should of made my post clearer, i was referring to bailiffs in particular, not debt collectors.

Debt collectors have no rights whatsoever, i would never encourage people to converse with debt collectors.

Bailiffs however, usually will keep coming back, especially if they have a writ to enforce.

Its much simpler to show a certified bailiff your ID and have the matter resolved there and then, than to drag it out unnecessarily, especially when the matter in question is absolutely nothing to do with you.
