💡 Pro Tip
Money claims have high success rates (70%+ win) but LOW collection rates (only 30% of judgments are fully paid). Only pursue if tenant has assets, employment, or you can find them. Otherwise, accept the loss and move on.

• Our pack includes a fee calculator based on your arrears amount
Yes! You have 6 years from the date arrears became due to make a claim. Many landlords successfully claim arrears after tenancy ends. You'll need tenant's current address for court service.
You can apply to court for "alternative service" (e.g., email, Facebook, last known address). However, if you can't locate them for enforcement, winning the claim won't help you collect. Consider if it's worth pursuing.
Yes! You can claim 8% statutory interest per year on rent arrears (or the rate in your tenancy agreement if higher). Our interest calculator works this out automatically.
If tenant submits a defense, the court will schedule a hearing. You'll need to attend (in person or by phone) and present your evidence (tenancy agreement, rent statements, payment records). Most landlords win if they have proper documentation.
After judgment, if tenant doesn't pay voluntarily, you can use:
• Bailiffs (High Court Enforcement Officers) - most effective
• Attachment of Earnings - deduct from wages
• Charging Order - secure against tenant's property
We include guides for all enforcement methods.
Use Money Claims (£179.99) when you need to recover rent arrears through the county court. This product focuses specifically on the financial claim process. If your tenant is still in the property and you need to evict them first, start with our Notices product.
Court-ready money claim documents in 10 minutes. Recover what you're owed.
