recovercorporatedebt
CCI is one of the UK’s leading commercial
collection agencies, collecting high and
low value accounts all over the world
across a variety of sectors, including:
Freight
Manufacturing
Tourism
Publishing
Utilities
Construction
Insurance
Healthcare
Education
Leasing
Trade Associations
At CCI we are all too aware of the
difficulties in collecting commercial debt as
well as the dangers of not acting quickly in
an insolvency situation.
Our commercial collectors are
specifically trained. They are able to
resolve complex commercial issues as well
as take the initiative when debtors are
stalling or buying time.
In particular they understand the
importance of escalating the intensity of
the collection process according to the
circumstances of each account.
We also use the full range of litigation
options available to maximum effect. In
short, our aim is to secure payment to you
in advance of other, slower creditors.
Promptness is essential.
In addition to recovering many millions of
pounds from UK debtors, we recover
similar sums from overseas. With partner
offices in over 90 countries employing over
3000 people, CCI provides the complete
solution to all of your credit problems.
To mitigate risk, many of our clients
use CCI as an extension of their own
credit control department; partnership
pays.

8. Twenty first century
tracing technology
Tracing
CCI has invested heavily in the tools
needed to trace your debtors. Our trace
agents are some of the most experienced
in the business. They are all equipped with
the latest technology necessary to ensure
the highest quality results.
Speed
Recognising that some accounts must
take priority over others, our systems are
flexible and are capable of extremely fast
turnaround times - six hours if necessary.
The Law
These days it is not enough to be able to
trace the debtor - you need to be able to
establish that you have done so legally
and ethically. CCI is acutely aware that we
are acting in your name. We always act
within the permissible legal and ethical
boundaries. Cutting corners never pays.
Recovery
Once the debtor has been traced, the
account is transferred to our collections
department. Our standard recovery
procedures are then applied.
Prices
Our trace and collect charges are
negotiable. However there are discounts
available for volume and value. Please call
us to discuss your needs.

LITIGATION
SERVICE
The litigation maze -
from issue to enforcement
Litigation cycle
CCI Legal can manage the whole litigation
cycle on your behalf, from issue to
enforcement. In conjunction with our
solicitors, we will seek Judgments,
bankruptcy orders, warrants of execution,
charges on properties, third party debt
orders etc, etc...all with the benefit of full
professional indemnity insurance.
Immediate action
Within twenty-four hours of your
instructing us to initiate legal proceedings,
CCI’s team will issue a Court claim. Acting
swiftly will help you maintain a high profile
for your debt. We always prioritise your
claim.
Judgment
If no defence or counter claim is entered,
our solicitors apply for Judgment on the
fourteenth day after legal proceedings
have been issued. Thereafter, the Court
will serve your debtor with an order to pay
the debt (and all relevant costs and
interest).
Enforcement
Where necessary, we use the Courts to
enforce Judgments. We deploy our
experience and skill to ensure that the
most cost-effective measures are
employed. In the event that an action is
defended or ignored, it is reassuring to
know that you have the support of our
qualified legal team.
Communication
Even after legal proceedings have
commenced, CCI will continue to maintain
a regular and positive dialogue with your
debtor. We do not allow claims to be
ignored. Our experience has shown that
continued personal contact stimulates a
higher recovery ratio. In fact, our
recovery ratios exceed the national
average by a substantial margin.
Competitive rates
In addition to our own legal department,
our position in the marketplace has
enabled us to negotiate highly competitive
rates for specialist lawyers.
Assuming your claim is valid and the
debtor pays, the costs involved in the
litigation cycle are minimal.
10. How to avoid the
predators
CCI Legal has developed a range of
credit management services designed
to protect your business.
Credit checks
CCI provides corporate and consumer
credit referencing services to help you
make informed decisions. Comprehensive
checks are immediately available.
Our advice is to never open an
account and never trade with any
third party without employing our
services. Caution pays.
Auditing terms and conditions
An experienced commercial lawyer will
undertake a thorough review of your
business terms. He will amend, update
and redraft as appropriate to ensure that
they comply with current legislation and
general trading practices. Improving your
terms will help you protect your business
against the risk of bad debt. Charges are
from £200.
Staff training
All too frequently the reason an account
cannot be collected is that something has
been overlooked at the point of sale or
collection techniques are out of date. CCI
offers comprehensive training courses for
sales and collection teams. Discounted
rates are negotiable for staff training on
client or CCI premises.
