What
does a typical professional collection
agency do? |
|
| |
-
The
collection service receives past-due accounts
when those accounts cannot be collected
economically by the creditor. Third-party
collection services can often collect accounts
more efficiently than creditors themselves
because their operations are streamlined and
specialized for that purpose. Often the
collection agency has to first find an accurate
address or phone number so that they can contact
the debtor, a process called "skip tracing."
After confirming the proper address, the office
must send a first written communication to the
debtor a notice that allows the debtor to
dispute the validity of the debt and/or request
verification of the debt. Although exact
procedures vary by collection affiliates
worldwide, type of account and client. The
debtor then receives a letter or phone call from
a collector, who asks for payment in full. If
payment in full is not possible, the collector
works with the debtor to solve the payment
problems and sort out amicable solution, after
due consent from the creditor.

What
is your turnaround time (TAT) for collection?
|
| |
-
A: Depends on the nature of the debt, it
would take between two to four weeks to work on
and before getting back to you. During that
period, all the necessary searches and
investigations are performed so that a strong
ground could be build to collect debt.

Why
are accounts referred for collection? |
|
|
-
A:
Most accounts are referred for collection
because they have gone unpaid beyond the due
date and often the creditor has not received any
communication from the Debtor People who provide
goods and services to their clients on credit
rely on their customers' promises to pay. While
they value their customers, they must also
depend on payment to meet their own costs and
expenses. The longer an account remains unpaid,
the less likelihood that it will be paid. When
the creditor can no longer afford to carry
past-due accounts and cannot collect them
economically, the accounts are either written
off, or referred to a professional, third -party
collectors like ICIL.
