But do not take our word for it, should you decide to use our services, we will gladly supply you with a list of clients, who have been using our services for more than 3 years already.

Our motto in business is "doing things the old school way". Honesty, integrity, loyalty and good service define our business ethics.
We specialize in Corporate Debt Collections and not consumer debt. Corporate debt is where either a product or service was rendered between entities. Our fee is on a no success no fee basis.
There are different modules for the above. It depends on what the client wants to ascertain. These modules can be accessed for example, tracing or credit scoring. Example: Scan Investigation – All details on a Company, Directors, Bank Code etc.
Should we not be able to recover the account handed over to us for collection, all the merits of the case will be looked at, and discussed with yourselves, in order to determine if we will proceed with Legal Action or if you must write off the amount as bad debt. No time will be wasted on throwing good money after bad money.
Blacklistings will be done on your instruction, if or when a debtor does not pay his outstanding account, and there is no queries or disputes relating to the amount outstanding. (Please note, as per the new National Credit Act, blacklisting can only be done where there is a signed credit application, and a (20)day registered letter was forwarded to the domicilium address on the credit application, with no response received after the said period.
Tracings will be done on your instruction via Trans Union Credit Bureau.
In the event of a company or private individual going into liquidation or sequestration, we will gladly handle the proceedings of the above, and hope to recover a dividend on behalf of yourselves. We also provide the service of liquidating or sequestrating either a company or private individual, should this be the best option to recover an outstanding amount.
