T Russell

Scott & Mears worked hard to get my debt recovered. They did everything to guide me through the process. I would recommend them and use them again, if I ever had to.

I've found Scott and Mears very helpful in recovering debts from some difficult tenants over the last 2 years.

Mark Worley

Being a small, family business, unpaid accounts have a serious impact on us. We have used Scott & Mears as our debt recovery agent for nearly 20 years, and in that time they have given us excellent advice, recovered many debts which likely would have gone partly or wholly unpaid, and processed these with the minimum of fuss and inconvenience to ourselves. They do this at a very competitive rate, which again makes a big difference to our profitability.

C Hazell

Scott & Mears have been a superb company to deal with. Advising and guiding me through the entire recovery process, court documents and hearings whilst providing a professional, yet kind service. No stone left unturned proved to give us a positive result in a difficult case. It can be incredibly daunting to embark on something you have so little knowledge of but Scott & Mears have been fantastic from start to finish. Can highly recommend & will be my “go to” in the future.
