They are not considered as valid collection agents or agencies as they recover debts on behalf of their organization only. These individuals do not have the power or the right to charge the debtor an interest. In this case, the company will have a department that will only be specialised in the collection of debts because the organization has the time and can afford to spend resources in order to recover the debts owed successfully

Third party international debt recovery
