On bailiffs and outrage

EnergyVision is strongly committed to taking away people's worries – not only our customers, but also our employees. While we usually get on with this quietly behind the scenes, occasionally we so publicly, so long as it provides added value for society or can help to solve a problem.

Last summer, for example, a bailiff wanted to seize the wages of an employee who had not paid a parking fine of EUR 40 on time, but had already paid more than EUR 1,000 in bailiff costs. The bailiff company was asking for more than EUR 1,500 in costs, wanting to receive this through some sort of wage agreement. After talking to said company failed to help matters, EnergyVision stepped in as a group, with colleagues raising money to pay for the costs and our CEO posting a message online. That message has been viewed, discussed and shared over 125,000 times. Two months later, the Minister of Justice announced that, from now on, this type of practice and its associated costs would henceforth be restricted.
