FAQs

Tracing FAQs


See below some of the Common Questions we receive for our Tracing Services!

 


  1. How long does a Trace take?   It does depend on the chosen speed of service however Individual Tracing is completed within 10-15 days. Corporate Tracing Services are usually completed within our standard timeframe of 20 working days.   We also offer an Express Trace of 24-48 hours or finally a Super Trace of 6-8 working hours. In all cases, a report will be sent out by email once a trace has been completed.   Super Traces & Express Traces can be telephoned over as soon as a result is confirmed. Super & Express Traces are also emailed for your ease.  

  2. Can you undertake Traces Abroad?   Yes! We have Experts in-house & we also use trusted & respected Experts in countries virtually all over the world. These Experts can undertake Residential or Employment Traces abroad however the cost & payment scheme may differ from our Nigeria, or Africa Traces. Please enquire for more information.   

  3. What kind of Information can I expect to receive?   For a Residential Trace you can expect an address accompanied by background details in line with your original brief to us. Telephone numbers can usually be supplied, unless they are not listed or ex-directory.   For an Employment Trace, we will provide either the address where your subject works from or the address where he / she is paid from (as this is often used for an attachment of earnings) & a contact telephone number, as well any other information relevant to your subject’s work status.   We may also confirm a subject is out of work, which is still a positive trace result.  

  4. Will I be charged if the subject is still living at the same address or working as stated?   Yes, as we will have verified that the details provided were correct, & as our Experts will still have had to go through the same processes to confirm this. Re-confirming information often involves even more work for our Experts, but the fee is still the same!  

  5. What details are required to Trace a Company?   The Company’s Name & the last known Trading Address are the key details required. Any other additional information you may have on the company (such as nature of business, director details, whether it was a Public Limited Company or Sole Trader, the Company Number, etc.) is always worth submitting to speed up the Trace & increase the likelihood of a positive result.   

  6. What is a Status Report?   As well as Trace & Employment Information, the following search details: Credit Check including CJs (Court Judgments), Marital Status, any known or visible Assets, Date of Birth & Property Ownership details.   Any additional information that the Expert may come across during the investigation will also be included. We also do a larger & much more In-depth Enquiry which involves a Personal Visit by one of Our Local Investigators who will try & determine more in actual tangible assets, such as Vehicles or Assets or Equipment.   The visit is conducted covertly, & we can provide our clients with an up-to-date assumption on value & provide pictures & evidential proof of any Vehicles, or Assets, & then in turn undertake allied checks on. (This is an invaluable service that our clients are happy for us to undertake when the debt levels are high).   Please note we are NOT able to investigate Bank Details as part of Our Status Reports & can only Assess Banking Information in certain circumstances when it’s in compliance with the relevant Data Protection Act.   

  7. What happens if the Trace or Status Report is a Negative?   You will receive a Negative Report which will outline the “Lines of Enquiry” we undertook. However, we do always suggest re-submitting the case later – usually within 2-3 months in the event new information is located.   For Corporate Clients with large volumes of work, we work on a “No Trace, No Fee” Basis.  

  8. Can I expect any Additional Information?   Yes. If our Experts come across any additional information which may be of use to you, this will be included within the Completed Report.  

  9. What if the Information Supplied appears to be Incorrect?   You can notify us within 30 days of the Trace Completion Date, we will be more than happy to re-check the information for you on a “Free of Charge Basis”. If we are unable to re-confirm our findings or if we have been misled with our initial enquiries – your account will be credited for the cost of the original trace.  

  10. What are Our Success Rates?   Depending on the information passed to us, Our Success Rate can be over 70% to 80%, bearing in mind that the more information that we hold the better the likelihood that we will be able to trace the subject, please contact us if you require more detailed information.  

  11. What is My First Move?   We must be formally instructed to proceed with both Private & Corporate Cases. This can be via submission of an Instruction Form or providing us information by email or post. Corporate Clients must first set up an account with us & we will then supply you with a Corporate Trace Instruction Form.   Private Clients will need to supply a completed Private Client Instruction Form. If you have any further questions or require further details, please contact us & a member of Our Customer Service Team will get back to you.
