This organisation should be banned from trading

Have been awaiting a response from AYOM's I have been chasing them for several months and they cannot be bothered to reply. I've not received any of the money that is owed to me despite my debtor having paid the full amount back in April 24 nor have I had any kind of response or update. Given the number of people posting ta similar response I'm surprised the newspapers haven't picked up on this scam have given them to the end of the year to respond then its off to small claims court. Would be nice to just see them pay up for the money I'm owed. End of the day they have charged me for the privilege and held my funds for 8 months gaining interest. I wouldn't use them again. Despite taking them to small claims court and arranging for mediation they don't bother turning up even though they admit they have my money. Now it goes to Court to get what they owe me absolutely terrible to deal with please if you have any sense you would not use this company. This organisation should be banned from trading despite confirming on court papers that they owe me the money they have still not sent the cheque when you chase they say email your issue in and someone will get back to you because we are so busy. So you email and never here from them again. Read more Read less

    DO NOT USE

Their debt recovery side is very good but it would be as this company is collecting your money, but not for you, rather for themselves! AYOM collected over £5,000 for us on 8th August 2024 and as of today we have not seen a penny of it. First they will tell you their repayment terms are 60 days, they they will tell you it can be 90. This is if you can get hold of their 'Customer Service' team which you will struggle to do. DO NOT USE AYOM, they are a scam company. Read more Read less

    Being scammed?

Long story short she ended up owing me around £1250. In trying to find a solution I came across Are You Owed Money and after a very helpful phone call signed up with the promise that if they recovered my money they'd also tag on the fee to the debtor so I wouldn't be out of pocket there either. Fast forward some months and they eventually got the debtor to pay up with a payment scheme. And that's where my problems started. I thought - mistakenly - that I'd simply get paid when they did. However they needed to go beyond a claw back period to ensure AYOM didn't pay me only for the debtor to claim it back. Fair enough. But then because the debtor was paying by card that could be around 180 days. Okayyyy. So I waited patiently for the instalments to start coming in. And I waited. And waited. Despite many phone calls and emails around 7 months from the first instalment I have received £0. Whilst AYOM confirmed they'd received £2k (they obviously bump the amount up significantly to cover their costs) they have yet to remit a penny. I've got no indication when or even if they will ever pay me my own money back. It's an ingenious scam it appears. You provide the debtor, you pay them to recoup the money, they get it back and keep it. Please don't fall for it. Read more Read less

    This is a scam company.

    This is a scam company. They make their money by charging their customers cancellation fe of £150 when they cancel their request due to poor service.

They are out and out thieves. They collect the money you are owed, then keep it. They have been sitting on my money since July. They are probably bankrupt. I'm taking legal action against them.

Great sales pitch, terrible service. Lots of automated emails and messages sent but no action like phone calls, visiting the debtor, or enforcement taken. Very much felt like a 'take your money and run' operation. And no updates, not even when requested via their client portal. Extremely disappointing and we will never use them again. But it was an expensive lesson. Read more Read less

In September 2023 my company employed them to recover a debt from one of my clients who refused to pay his final bill. They took £2,500 as a fee after coming to my house with the big sell. They successfully collected the debt on November 26th 2023. Well almost 12 months later and numerous phone calls and email the money has still not been returned to me!! They hide behind the collection department and never answer the phone or reply to emails. On Monday 11th November 2024 I will be driving up to there offices in Preston to get my money!! They are the worst c company I have ever come across has have c used me and my family emended mental stress and illness. Read more Read less

Chased and chased this company for an answer. case AY-5163-0217.001. Wasting so much time and they are withholding payment for a debt they have recovered. Same few members of staff answer and give the same -no-one here to talk. Have given an ultimatum - before taking this further. This company should be stuck off. CRIMINAL. If I could I would give negative stars. Been chasing my money for ten months and not received a penny and emails not replied to. STAY CLEAR OF THIS COMPA Read more Read less
