Lower Cost
We receive more than one payment for every minute of the day, thats 60 payments an hour, 1440 a day and 525,600+ a year. Operating at this increased capacity means we can offer lower rates with automated processes to make your life easier.
Variable
Different clients segment their cases in different ways. We can recover ‘Active’ accounts for a shorter period if needed and ‘Closed’ cases can have a longer collections strategy before being assessed for Legal suitability. All of our processes are adaptable to what your customers need.
Experience
We are proud to be able to say that a number of our collections agents have worked for coeo for over 10 years. Throughout this journey with us, they have collected a vast bank of knowledge about the Utilities industry and are subsequently expert objection handlers and problem solvers.
