Great communication from all team members with super fast response and updates along the process. Without them we wouldn't have gotten the case resolved.

Outstanding service
Outstanding service. Everyone at Equivo was so helpful. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough and already have to friends and clients. Being owed money that you rightfully deserve isn’t nice. They reassured me that it would get funds and did.
Responsive and professional
Equivo were responsive, communicated well and carried out the required collection of outstanding money quickly and professionally. I will definitely use their services again.
The worst company I’ve ever seen
They're taking my car without approval from the finance company they work with. They haven't known where the car is for days.
Excellent company & excellent service
Excellent company & excellent service.
I have recommended Equivo to a number of friends and clients, and will continue to do so. The service, experience and help in complicated cases has been second to none, including assistance on legal issues where appropriate.
I will continue to recommend Equivo and would never use another HCEO company.
Professional and Competent
I can not rate Equivo highly enough. From the very first contact I have found them to be very easy to deal with and they have shown a level of professionalism and competence that I have not experienced previously with other similar companies. Both Jonathan and Alison have gone above and beyond and could not have been more professional. An excellent company who I can wholeheartedly recommend without question.
Although we didn't achieve the outcome…
Although we didn't achieve the outcome I was hoping for (it was a long shot and realistically I attempted to chase this debt at too late a date), Equivo have been communicative and detailed. Alison in particular was great to work with.
If I ever have another debtor that won't play ball I will be going back to Equivo first.

the team at Equivo were super polite and efficient. I would use them again if I had to!
Equivo have been so helpful
Equivo have been so helpful, Didn’t have a clue and they explained everything, I really wasn’t hopeful because the person who owed me money was really not a very nice person owed lots of money to a lot of people he’s very dodgy, But a huge thank you to Lee he was able to get payment, Hopefully I won’t need bailiffs again but if I did I would definitely use Equivo highly recommended and thank you to Alison on the end of phone and email 🙂
Excellent Service
After searching for a company to recover money via a court order, we selected Equivo and couldn't be happier. They talked us through the process of upgrading our court order, helped with the process and then enforced the HC Order, recovering the money. Would use again if in a similar situation.
Complex case - carried out efficiently and quickly.
Aaron dealt with my complex case efficiently and extremely quickly, and it was brought to action promptly - especially as courts are notoriously slow. The agent on site was courteous and professional, and worked with me to make the situation as smooth and manageable as possible. Would definitely recommend.
Knights in shining armour! 🙃
As a business we were owed almost £20k. We obtained judgement in default and they still refused to pay. Out of desperation I called 4 High Court Enforcement companies. Mr Chapfield called me back immediately unlike the other 3 and managed to get the judgement transferred within 3 weeks. They said they would dispute the debt but 6 weeks later the whole amount was in our bank account. Equivo/ Mr Chapfield literally saved our business. No hesitation in recommending them if you are owed money Thank you.
What an Outstanding team!
What an Outstanding team!
Equivo recovered the debt I was owed in full, with zero hassle and really quickly too.
I still can’t believe it.
I would definitely use them again.

For regular people with a rental property that runs into trouble with tenants, the people of Equivo- London are efficient, effective and understanding.
This makes a trustworthy company, it is a rare and precious thing.

My neice used Equivo for a money judgment- they were patient and helpful and Alison handled our case and kept us updated on progress when there was any attendance. Would highly recommend Equivo.
Excellent Service
Equivo collected a debt for us where another debt collection company failed to do so. I only wish we had used Equivo in the first place, this would have saved us over a year of wasted time with another debt collection company. Equivo managed to collect our debt in under 1 month. Well done we are so impressed with Equivo!
Emily Mumford is fantastic

Amazing professional staff
Amazing professional, extremely helpful, friendly staff. Guide you every step of the way with the Writ process. I contacted them numerous times and they never lost their patience with me. I would absolutely recommend this company, it was a pleasure doing business with them. My special thanks to Alison.
Embarrassing
Apparently Argos have sold a £100 final payment (not overdue) to this company, which we knew nothing of. Today had a debt collector banging my door, no one was in so called equivo who said no details on file for my address or my name/previous owners. Found a card from said collector on doorstep with ref number and conveniently when called they found a record. Asked why they sent a debt collector to my home when we knew nothing of this ‘debt’ being sold - ‘WE WERE IN THE AREA!!!’ So we dropped a card in - not before you were knocking my door though so you weren’t just dropping a card!
