When a collection is made, we  deduct our agreed commission from the sum collected and remit the balance to our client.

  • What happens if I ignore my debt collection calls?​

Ignoring debt collection calls can worsen the situation and lead to further legal action. Maintain communication and actively work towards a resolution to avoid potential consequences like wage garnishment or lawsuits.

What are my options for resolving my debt?​

  • Negotiate a payment plan. This allows you to make smaller, more manageable payments over a longer period.

  • Consider debt consolidation. This involves combining multiple debts into one loan with a lower interest rate, simplifying repayment.

  • Seek debt settlement. This involves paying a reduced sum to settle the entire debt, but may damage your credit score.
