For addresses in Kreis 4 (8004 Zurich), we are currently unable to order the collections report via our service. This is due to technical or infrastructural limitations in the connection to the responsible debt collection office. However, you can order your collections report directly from the Stadtammann- und Betreibungsamt Zürich 4.
A request may be rejected for various reasons. The most common are:
