What options do I have when trying to recover a debt? Can I just turn up on farm abd take something of the value I’m owed?

under £10,000 ? make a small claims court application - cheap and simple online

sadly you cant just take stuff from the debtor, don’t go getting arrested !

dont use agents, they are mostly scammers

Sadly not a lot if they are hardcore and lots of people are chasing them they'll know the rules far better than you and you'll find legal means are expensive and near useless. It's often cheaper to write it off. Otherwise try confronting them where they'd least like it to happen and if that doesn't work you've got to get devious but make sure you don't get caught because again the law is on their side.
