    FWIW, an Irish company calling itself stubbsgazette.ie will, for a fee, write a letter to your debtors demanding that they pay up and the letter contains an empty threat to have them named in Stubbs. That's all they do - use the name 'Stubb's gazette' to intimidate people into paying up.

    Yes but your creditor has to take you to court and get a judgement before you get listed in Stubb's. The company which publishes the gazette would not a party to such an action so they have no business whatsoever writing to you demanding that you pay your debts. It's none of their fcuking business if A owes money to B.

    It's a slightly more legal version of hiring a notorious former criminal to call on your debtors demanding payment.

    Writing the threatening letter is a 'service' which uses or abuses the name 'Stubbs', depending on your viewpoint and whether you are the debtor or creditor.
