A naughty PPC talking about "prosecutions and chasing"

Never heard of this bunch before but they came up on a consumer programme.
On their website they clearly think they can talk about prosecuting people tut tut:

    What is the betting that they are a one/two man band?

    Interesting too that the glossy web site is actually not brilliantly written. Example -  If they still refuse to pay, we will initiate court proceedings against them. This can also lead to further court costs and possible CCJ on your credit file.

    Very mixed up

    Yup, 2 (wo)man band.... minimal accounts info and no employees in 2023.
    Looks like they kicked off using KADOE through Debt Recovery Plus ltd back in 21-22 FY with 1500 requests, increased to about 3000 in the next year and has tailed off significantly to 269 in the first 3 quarters of this last tax year...odd, and a bit rubbish by the looks of their website...

    Sounds like they thought is was a quick buck to be had - obviously they are IPC not BPA members!

    I'd love one of these special 'sticks'
