Automotive debt recovery
Recover unpaid service, parts, and finance arrears, without the consumer-law trap.
Dealerships, service centres, parts wholesalers, and after-market specialists recover overdue invoices and finance arrears with a workflow that respects motor-vehicle consumer-law specifics — and the broader ACCC scrutiny on the industry.
Why traditional recovery breaks for Automotive.
-
ACCC has been actively scrutinising automotive consumer treatment — heavy-handed recovery is reputational poison.
-
Service balances ($300-$3,000) where 25-30% commission destroys economics.
-
Parts wholesale to trade — B2B AP cycles drag, and the customer is also a future customer.
-
Disputed-quality recovery (alleged faulty repair) needs careful routing — contested workmanship is not a debt-recovery problem.
How we do it differently.
ACCC-cognisant tone
Communications stay clear of automotive-industry-specific complaint triggers — guarantee language, fitness-for-purpose claims, etc. Disputed-quality cases route back to your service manager, not into collections.
Trade vs retail routing
B2B parts wholesale debts run a different cadence (longer, more formal) from retail service debts (faster, more direct). Both branded as your dealership.
Contingency-only — viable on small balances
Materially below 25-30%. $400 service balances become economic to chase again.
Customer voice
What finance teams tell us
Switching off our old agency saved us roughly 28% on every recovered dollar in the first quarter — and I stopped getting angry-customer phone calls forwarded to me.
Our debtors used to ghost a 1300 number. Now they pay through a portal in their pyjamas at 11pm. Recovery rate's up, calls volume is down, and the tone of the whole thing feels less like a fight.
The hardship workflow alone justified the switch. We had two genuinely struggling customers this quarter and our previous agency would have just kept hammering. We kept the relationship.
