You can increase your current recoveries while you lower your operational costs! First party collections on newly delinquent accounts are the way to go. When you hire IDR, we use a gentle but effective method to recover your debt. We use skip tracing early in the delinquency to make it possible to quickly locate debtors and secure payment on overdue accounts. Using an outside collections service before you’ve been forced to charge off accounts means that fewer accounts will ever reach that status.
