Our Debt Recovery Process

Our Corporate and Commercial debt recovery is not a "one size fits all" process. Our account managers work to understand your relationship with the debtor and consider factors such as age and size of debt prior to initiating action. We act as an extension to your team, allowing your to focus on the day to day operation of your business.

1

Immediate Demand


An immediate demand acts as a formal demand to a debtor in order to recover funds within 7 days. The immediate demand includes the breakdown of the debt, interest, fees and taxes (if applicable).

Letter Before Action


If the Immediate Demand is unsuccessful, we will then escalate your case to Stage 2 – Letter Before Action.
The letter before action is a legal requirement when your intention is to take legal action against your debtors. It gives the debtors the opportunity to raise legitimate disputes and allows them a further timeframe to react to source the funds.
