Our debt collection process
We know that being in debt can be stressful and it can be hard to make the first call. Here's how we can help if you are in arrears on your account.
We work with Debt Collection Agencies to contact customers and collect payments on our behalf. If you have received a letter from them, the best thing to do is to respond to them by the contact methods in the letter. Their friendly advisors will be on hand to work with you in a non-judgmental way to get you back on track
