Debt collection in Belgium

ICS stands for a result-oriented and strict collection of business debts. Thorough knowledge of the legal and business aspects allow us to continue to use the correct procedure quickly and efficiently. The amount and age of your claim is not important for its treatment. Our procedures are set to ISO 9001.

In practice
We propose a contract with simple and transparent prices and conditions for the collection assignment you entrust us. (see a model agreement here).

The claim is immediately registered and debtor is summoned to pay within has five days the principal amount and costs and interest as stated in your terms and conditions.

The case is reported to various financial databases who will review their credit ratings for this debtor.
The debtor can pay by bank transfer, Visa or bank card.
We are convinced that an intensive contact with the debtor is necessary for the speedy processing of your claim.
From day 6 your debtor will be called by our Collection Officer and visited if deemed necessary.
There are four outcomes possible:
1. Debtor pays full amount.
2. Debtor pays, after your approval, in instalments, which are monitored carefully by ICS and reported.
3. Your debtor can pay but does not. Depending on claimed amount, we then can recommend legal action.
