Frequently Asked Questions

At AMPAC, we have observed that our most successful clients combine robust internal credit management procedures, high-quality credit documentation, and swift escalation of past-due debts to prevent their debtors from delaying recovery, stalling payments, or paying other creditors ahead of them.

If your business does not have the resources or expertise to consistently apply this approach to debt collection, then you should consider using a debt collection agency to enhance your prospects of recovery. Put simply, your debt should be referred to a collection agency as soon as you feel the debtor is not responding positively to your internal collection efforts. This could include:

  • The debtor has failed to honour two or more promises to pay
  • Three or more contacts with the debtor have failed to secure payment
  • The debt is more than 60 days overdue for payment, and the debtor continues to ignore your requests to pay

There is no minimum or maximum debt amount required before you can refer a debt to a collection agency. However, the amount of the debt will help determine the best and most cost-effective action required to facilitate recovery. A well-resourced and professional debt collection agency will be able to discuss the various options and make recommendations based on the debt amount, the debtor’s circumstances, and the costs involved.

No collection agency can guarantee that the debt you refer will be recovered. However, an experienced, professional debt collection agency in Australia can quickly assess the recoverability of your debt and suggest recovery options to increase the likelihood of recovery at the lowest possible cost.

There are several factors that determine how long it takes to collect a debt. These include:

  • Cash flow and overall financial position of the debtor
  • The debtors’ willingness to pay
  • If the debt in dispute, and the complexity of the dispute
  • The quality of your credit documentation
  • The existence of Personal Guarantees

Referring the debt to a debt collection agency will reduce recovery timeframes, enhance recovery prospects, and reduce the risk of bad debt.

Yes, in most States and Territories of Australia, you can recover all your collection costs from your customer. However, this is only possible if your Terms & Conditions include a ‘Cost Recovery Clause’.

Legislation in some States, such as Queensland, does not allow you to recover all your collection costs from your customer, even if your Terms & Conditions include a Cost Recovery Clause.

Your collection agency will be able to advise you in advance whether costs are recoverable.

This is not the case. A collection agency should keep you right up to date with the progress of each of your matters. Most established collection agencies will also provide you with 24/7 real-time access to their debt collection system, which will enable you to track the progress of your debt online anywhere in the world from your workstation, tablet or mobile phone.

The cost will vary depending on the size and nature of the debt, the age of the debt, and whether a dispute exists. A reputable debt collection agency will explain the costs that may be incurred before you refer the debt, so you are able to make an informed decision.

Usually, an agency will charge a commission for its services; however, this is payable only upon the successful recovery of the debt, or part thereof.

If legal action is required, there will be additional costs. Here again, your collection agency will be able to explain the process, costs, and timeframes involved, so you are fully informed before you decide to proceed. Legal action should never be commenced without your prior approval.
