Marston 4+

I’ve been trying to add my second case with these guys to the app. But from all the reviews I’ve read I’m not sure that’s in these guys best interests. The app is absolute rubbish and not maintained even though you’ll keep getting msg saying it’s under maintenance.. for weeks? Struggling to pay options is present but not useful. My first case was paid off in full but the second will be a plan which I’m dreading cause 200£ can turn to 700 with 1 misstep. Fortunately the address tied to the second case is not my current address. So without engaging with me they won’t even be allowed to enforce it on the residence there. I just don’t want the likes of these guys on me as I’ll go jail behind them trying to play with me. This is folks life. I got a baby on the way and my fuse is short. Praying for a peaceful outcome but highly doubt it. They earn through folks not keeping up or the enforcement stage. I’m an enforcer too however. And won’t be robbed blind or bullied.

I entered in to a payment plan to pay off a debt from a parking fine that resurfaced after years. It was accepted and an agreement was reached. The date was set for them to take the first payment well in advance. The date came and went and they hadn’t taken the money. Trying to get in contact with them is impossible so I decided to go back on the app to try to get in touch there. The payment plan was now listed as broken? There was no communication to let me know and there was absolutely no attempt to take the payment.

I assume the next step would be to send enforcement agents around claiming that I’d missed a payment, before upping the debt by a couple of hundred due to them ‘ being forced to send bailiffs to reclaim the debt’.

Luckily I caught on to it early and paid it off in full.

Typical cycle scam. The only way these types of ‘people’ can earn a living. Don’t fall for it.

Ok so I understand if marstons have contacted you 9 times out 10 it’s not for anything positive

That put aside for what it was it was easy to use app made it easy to make payments and show you what you was up to

Negative thought - I was contacted by a agent after 2 weeks of requesting a call back, I set up a payment play of 100 a month for the next two months an then after that 400 a month as I was paying other bills that was clearing in two months.

When my agreement came through that had put 200 a month for the first two months an then 400

Lucky enough I knew I had the full amount coming with a week so this was just a safety net, that being said if I was in a bad situation and my limit was actually 100 a month, by them changing it to 200 would of cause massive stress

Debt is never a good thing when collectors are hounding you with letters I hope anyone reading this comes through the other side debt free with no issues.
