Rude, aggressive attitude. I've been paying off my debt with Octopus energy every month. But these hyenas have been constantly threatening me throughout the period requesting that I pay them. Rude... See more

Incompetence at its best chasing the wrong people harassing with constant communication even after I proved without a doubt not to be the person they look for, rude and incompetent advisors, managers do not return calls, impossible to open a complaint this are the worse incompetent people in this business

This company should be struck off saying they purchased a debt from BT. Number 1 the only bt i had was tv. And if you didnt pay each month they switch it off. Then with the switch over to tnt it had to be cleared on the account for tnt to take it over. So how the hell can the debt be there something is not right and if you dont pay you cant use there service something stinks about buying a debt with out showing any evidence and putting £1300.00 on for telling me they brought it. I will now sue BT for thae hassle and stress
Sending an overdue electricity bill…
Sending an overdue electricity bill demand to The Occupier? REALLY?
Octopus energy are still chasing us for a previous tenant's bill.
We don't owe them anything and have never had an account with them.
They said it was all sorted but today we got a letter addressed to The Occupier demanding payment from MIL collections.
This type of harassment is unacceptable.
If you don't know who owes the money then don't send threatening letters to the current occupiers who don't owe you anything.
We gave octopus energy the lettings agent's details. They should be your first port of call to find out the name of the person that actually owes money.
Do your job properly and stop harassing innocent people.
Friendly, responsive and courteous handling.......
There was throughout a friendly, highly responsive and courteous handling of the sensitive issue of debt collection.
From the outset the focus was on resolving the issue fairly and equitably.
It was also helpful that one representative conducted the whole process of inquiry until the final resolution.
At no points there were any threats expressed
Pursued for dissolved company debt despite disability
“I was contacted by MIL Collections Ltd regarding a debt for IHQ Systems Limited (Company No. 09350336), which was dissolved in May 2022. I have no personal liability and have not signed a personal guarantee.
I am a vulnerable person, being registered blind and living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Despite informing them of my disability, they continued to pursue me, causing stress and impacting my health.
I have sent formal complaints and a Subject Access Request (SAR), but the matter has not been resolved. I would caution others about aggressive or inappropriate contact from this company, particularly for vulnerable individuals.”
Jordan is a credit to the business.
Having an unpaid debit is never nice. But the service with MIL was excellent. Jordan especially was outstanding blending understanding and a true human approach to my situation made the process of paying it back almost a joy! Almost I still had to pay what I owed!!
Jordan worked with me to set a payment plan and followed up when he said he would. He is a credit to the business. Professional, understanding, kind and a true gentleman.
Highly recommended
Highly recommended, professional and easy to work with

I had my identity stolen to set up an account with an energy company. This had not been paid. MIL collections were appointed by the energy company to recover the debt. They contacted me following their processes. I explained that I had never had any dealings with the company, and had not lived at that address. I was advised to contact Action Fraud, and after sending further proof of my identity, I have been advised that they accept I was not responsible for the debt.
I was assisted by Ryan Hobbs, Dylan Hill and Dan Brown who were all very helpful and polite.
Professional service
Friendly, helpful team.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Truly Outstanding Long Term…
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Truly Outstanding Long Term Collections Partner
Our experience with MIL Collections has been exceptional from day one. Their collection rates consistently outperform every other DCA we’ve worked with, and the results speak for themselves.
What truly sets MIL apart is their approach to onboarding. They took the time to fully understand our culture, our internal collections processes, and the unique needs of our customers. They then tailored their strategy to seamlessly align with our business, something we have never experienced at this level with other agencies.
We’ve always felt valued as a client. MIL ensured our accounts were prioritised, keeping us updated regularly so we could confidently incorporate progress into our cash forecasting. That level of communication and transparency gave us absolute peace of mind.
MIL has become a genuine long-term strategic collections partner, stepping in to recover debt even after our internal credit control teams had exhausted all efforts. Their ability to resolve customer concerns and outstanding balances in a single-call resolution is impressive and has strengthened our customer relationships rather than damaging them.
We highly recommend MIL Collections to any business looking for a reliable, results-driven, and customer-focused collections partner. They continue to exceed expectations and deliver value far beyond standard DCA performance.
Not as scary as I thought
I was very worried before contacting milcollections. I spoke with Ryan hobbs who was very reassuring and put me at ease. Between us we have come up with a plan and I am able to enjoy my Christmas. Thankyou
A big solution for a small company
We are a small company and often get taken advantage of, by bigger players and invoices remain outstanding for long periods of time, which impacts our day-to-day operations. Thank goodness we found MIL collections. They understand the issues we we facing and took everything over for us, taking a huge burden off our shoulders. So far, they have been a pleasure to deal with and professional to work with. Thanks so much

100 % would recommend
I have worked with the team at MIL for a number of years on my cases. They are nice to deal with and to be frank, get the job done. If you have debt that needs recovering, they are the leaders in their game. Do not look anywhere else.

Great company!
We have recently started using Mil Collections after speaking to Dave and also chatting to him at BEVA Congress. We have only just started working with Mil Collections so we are new into this working relationship, but we have received funds for every client we have sent to them so far, which is impressive, and we are looking forward to continuing this working relationship together.

Absolute con merchants
Absolute con merchants - tried to force me to pay a fictitious debt.
Then they started phoning business associates and discussed the situation - thereby breaking GDPR.
Don't bother trying to talk to them - the agents just talk over you and then won't stand by what they say and will even go as far as denying the words that have just left their lips.
They'll try and convince you that they can't send emails - but they can, lying comes easy to this bunch of con artists.
I had an excellent experience with this…
I had an excellent experience with this debt collection agency. Not only were they professional and easy to work with, but they also took the time to give me genuinely helpful advice on how to properly credit check people before extending services. Their guidance was clear, practical, and something I can actually use to protect my business moving forward.
It’s rare to find a company in this industry that goes above and beyond just doing their job, but they truly did. I appreciate their honesty, expertise, and willingness to help. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable debt collection services or knowledgeable support.
