Misistry of Justice and Claims managment Firms

The Ministry of Justice is getting tough on poor and misleading claims management firms. Soke of these firms will offer which offer to "buy" a person's debt and then get it written off through a loophole in the law.

This month, GloVista Red and Ezee Claims have had their authorisations suspended, while Claimwise Legal Services and Momentum Network have had their authorisations removed and can longer conduct business.

Carl Wright of Cartel Client Review warns: "Consumers must be wary of firms which make misleading claims of buying up debt.

"If cases go to court it will be the consumer who ends up in the dock, not the company."
