What Does Our Debt Collection Service Cost?

If you have a signed Credit Application or agreement with your debtor that includes terms and conditions that allow you to recover debt collection costs, these can be added to the debt and legally recovered from the debtor.

We do handle one-off debts and our collection fees are structured based on the size of the debt, and the volume of work you provide to us.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are debts greater that 6 months old more difficult to collect?
    Yes the longer you leave a debt, the more difficult it becomes to collect and if you leave it this long the Company or business may be insolvent and therefore you will be unable to recover your debt.
  • Do I need to perform credit checks?
    If you provide credit to customers for amounts exceeding $2,000.00, we recommend you do credit checks, or you should at least get 3 trade reference checks and confirm that the ABN and ACN they give you is correct.
  • How long does the collection process take?
    Due to the individual circumstances of each debt, we are unable to quote an accurate recovery time. We try to recover your debt/s without resorting to legal action, but if this step is required and approved by you, it may take 6-8 months before a result can be achieved. Once your debt is lodged for collection, the process starts the same day, and we apply constant pressure. Our clients can quickly obtain up to date information on their accounts via the online client service, 24 hours, 7 days a week.
  • How soon do I need to refer to a debt collection agency?
    The debt should be referred at either 60/90 days based on 30 day terms.
  • When it comes to terms, what should the process be with new customers?
    When you open a new account, it is a good idea to formally notify your new client in writing. Serve notice of your terms and conditions of trade. Explain your settlement terms in clear, direct language and indicate how you will expect the account to be treated.
  • How many debts can I submit for collection?
    When you are established as a client of JMA you may submit unlimited debts for collection.
