Thread: How to track someone down?

I have the bond back but it is the unpaid rent and water bills etc.

Next of Kin will not release information on their loved ones - been through that before.

I also know that the Electricity company and a number of debt collectors are after them without much success.

This lot sound like professional "Skipper's" I know of a couple of ways of extracting the dollars from them & so does Brian Hjelm and Rob Hay but they may not be quite legal

The previous tenants in this place did a runner after 4 years occupancy. The neighbours tell me they shot through to QLD somewhere - left one night - all their furniture - the lot. The landlord has never caught up with them. We still get mail for them and we have been here just on 4 years.

Good luck with your quest.

Uncle, first you have to find them. Can't sic the bike clubbies on to them until then.

The pensioner/beneficiary is entitled to draw out the entire amount of the welfare payment in one transaction.

As to garnisheeing bank accounts of welfare recipients, the best of British luck to you. Benos don't usually have anything in the bank.

Sorry, I thought you were making a general statement.
Garrcol hadn't confirmed that the debtors were welfare recipients. That's what I was commenting about.
