Claim Link charges
just 10% of the net sum recovered. That means that
we do not charge you commission on recovered court fees, only the actual debt.
We do request £75.00 advance commission on issue of proceedings to cover
our expenses - this will be discounted from your final
commission.
Please note that our minimum charge is £75.00
and you should factor this in when deciding to pursue a claim for small amounts
of money.
