Mercers - Please Report Them

Along the same lines as the HFO "related" company a few days ago.

Mercers Debt Collection Ltd are trading, yet they're registered with Companies House as a being a dormant company.

The more that complain to Companies House, OFT and Trading Standards the better.

I imagine one should add the ICO to that list as they'll be processing data which as a dormant company they should not be.

Re: Mercers - Please Report Them

Are you sure that the active company is Mercers Debt Collection Limited rather than merely Mercers Debt Collection? For a "dormant" company, Mercers seem remarkably active:

Re: Mercers - Please Report Them

@CC,
So what are we saying here. Mercers is still showing as Dormant. Does that not mean they are acting against the law? Do we complain?

I know they're one of several. I posted another one up yesterday as well, and you've come up with Triton. Are they actually acting unlawfully? My understanding was that they were.
