It's called "attachment of earnings" in the UK there is no special agency for that, it's just a court order sent to the debtor employer.
This also exists in most US states, I believe it's often called "wage garnishment" there.
Repossession or seizure of property also exists in the US and the UK (and indeed most countries). Here in the UK there's even a TV show about that, with the cool name of "The Sheriffs are coming"...
