It's Important to Shop Around for the Right Virginia Collection Agency for Your Business

Virginia Collection Agencies
With its mild coastal climate and proximity to the nation's capital, Washington D.C., Virginia is ideally suited for business and pleasure. This Atlantic state is rich with history and tourist attractions. But it's also a hub for military operations, technology firms and famous colleges and universities. For those reasons and many more, nearly 8 million people and all types of businesses call Virginia home. If you're part of the local business community, you already know how important it is to make a budget and stick to it. But if delinquent customer accounts are getting in the way of that goal, consider turning to a Virginia collection agency for help.

Contrary to what some people think, most collection agencies abide by federal laws that prohibit bullying or harassing debtors. A reputable agency should:

• Explain it's method of communication up front - how many letters does the agency send before calling the customer?
• Describe its fee structure in detail and clarify any contract language you find confusing or unclear.
• Be willing to provide references and share examples of the letters it sends to delinquent account holders.

You're accustomed to shopping around when it comes to finding vendors for your business. So why should a collection agency be any different? Federal laws prohibit you from sending a delinquent account to more than one collection agency; however, you can “test” agencies in your area by sending them different accounts to try. Choose the one that has the most success settling your accounts and treats your customers professionally.
