Specialist Debt Recovery Experts
There are many unique requirements to recovering international debts in all countries including Ireland debt collection services which differ from the UK and therefore it is very important that cases are handled directly by our expert international debt collection agencies and not from debt collectors UK. This method of international debt collection sets Creditreform aside from the competition who in many cases try and recover debts from a UK debt collector only. Using the local offices and partners enables us to achieve a far greater success rate and our No Win No Fee service together with competitive commission rates against monies recovered only ensures you get the best service.
The debt collection and legal processes in Ireland are very similar to those in the UK but there are some differences such as the currency. Also if and when the UK finally leaves the European Union it will no longer be governed by its rules which could have an impact on the debt collection processes and protocols in Ireland. Debtors also respond far better to a local partner than from communications and correspondence from the UK.
