Sweet justice’ as wronged homeowners repossess

I heard about this idea elsewhere. It seems even in this country you can issue a similar order against a company. I believe it works rather well and
gets fast results. I wonder if you can do the same to the CEO of a company, I like the idea of turning up to their house and taking goods etc
Didn't we do this already with RBS and Northern Rock ?
If a customer or organisation owe you money, they don't dispute the amount owed and you have exhausted all reasonable attempts to obtain payment
IIRC you can take out a Winding up Order against them on the grounds that you have come to the conclusion they do not have the assets to meet their
liabilities!
We used this against a major international company in the photographic industry located in West London some years ago who consistently refused to pay
us.
A letter to their CEO explaining exactly how we were going to proceed meant we had a cheque hand delivered the next day!

The woman who runs the local hairdressers had a nasty accident in her car. Tesco Insurance agreed to pay a large sum of money - but kept delaying
payment, until nearly 6 months went by.
They paid out pretty quickly after they heard that she'd initiated debt recovery proceedings with a firm of local bailiffs...
I seem to recall a similar story a few years ago, where someone had taken a big company to the small claims court, and they hadnt bothered to turn up, so lost automatically. They then turned up at the head office with a bailiff.
