Am watching it now; how an earth do these people manage to rent a flat in the first place?
These landlords must be mad renting to such people - or is it that they see 'housing benefit' and think they're guaranteed rent forever.Very sad when there are children involved but dozens of letters must have been sent out before it gets to eviction stage.

Out of interest, and genuine question: why should he be a special case? Compared to (say) some bloke who'd worked as a miner, then as a truck driver and then Burger King, and who'd then fallen on equally tough times?
The army vet admitted that he had maxed out on his credit cards,He was however up to date with his rent/mortgage payments.He must have had a lot of time off work due to his medical conditions and used his credit cards to buy things,A shame what happened to him but,never a good idea to use credit cards if you are struggling financially.surveyor said:
This programme is far more sensitive than I expected and Steve seems a top bloke.
It's an interesting show.
I am curious if these guys are typical though because they don't look thuggish enough. It's some incentive to do something though when you don't get paid unless you get a result.It's an interesting show.

Bailiffs have a reputation of using threats, intimidation and exploitation, which, on the whole, HCEOs don't need to resort to.

HCEO is a different type of job description to a normal debt collector/bailiff.

A contrast to the HCEOs on the BBC's 'The Sheriffs Are Coming'. They all seem to be overweight and bald and look like people you would not want to mess with.Bailiffs have a reputation of using threats, intimidation and exploitation, which, on the whole, HCEOs don't need to resort to.
