Creditor FAQs
Here you will find answers to the questions most often posed by debtors. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
As a creditor, why do I not pay an Inkasso subscription fee?
Creditors do not pay subscription fees of any kind to use Inkasso’s collection solutions. At Inkasso, it is the debtors who pay collection fees, in accordance with the Maximum Debt Collection Fee Regulation. Such collection fees make up Inkasso’s revenue base.
As a creditor, do I need to use all levels of service, i.e. primary, secondary and legal collection?
Creditor have a choice of services. However, we recommend using all service types to ensure collection is as effective as possible.
Can a claim be withdrawn once it has reached the collection stage?
Yes, claims can be withdrawn up to and including the primary collection stage. Creditors can do this via their Inkasso collection system account. Claims at the legal collection stage can no longer be cancelled personally. This can only be done by contacting Inkasso’s customer services.
Do claims keep their original claim numbers once they have entered Inkasso’s collection system?
Yes, claim numbers remain unchanged.
As a creditor, will I be charged if I cancel a claim?
There is no charge for cancelling claims at the primary collection stage.
However, claims that have reached legal collection cannot be cancelled. This is only possible by contacting Inkasso’s customer services. Lög & Innheimta reserves the right to collect costs on cancelled claims that have reached legal collection, in accordance with the company’s official tariff.
As a creditor, can I have a claim paid directly to me and cancel it in the collection system?
As a creditor, can I have a claim paid directly to me and cancel it in the collection system?
There is no charge for cancelling claims at the primary collection stage.
In accordance with Inkasso’s terms and conditions, creditors are liable for collection costs if a claim has reached legal collection and has been collected.
What does it cost my customers for me to use Inkasso’s collection services?
Your customers pay collection costs on top of the claim amount. These costs are calculated in accordance with Inkasso’s official tariff and the Maximum Debt Collection Fee Regulation.
What is an immediate settlement?
As soon as a claim is paid by the debtor, the payment is deposited in the creditor’s bank account. Inkasso does not keep collected funds longer than the system requires.
As a creditor, how do I view a statement of payments deposited in my account?
Payment reports in .pdf and .txt format can be accessed on the creditor’s home page within Inkasso’s collection system. Payment reports give a clear overview of collected funds and can be transferred directly into accounting systems.
What claims should be sent for legal collection?
Legal collection is launched only once a claim is overdue and the debtor has been issued a debt collection notice.
The purpose of primary collection is to give debtors customers the chance to pay their debts, and we therefore recommend that our creditors try this service before resorting to enforced collection. Legal collection can be appropriate when debtors ignore repeated collection notices, a dispute over claims arises, the financial status of customers is deteriorating, or there is a risk of a claim lapsing.
What costs are involved in taking a debtor to court who has failed to pay an overdue debt?
In the event of legal action, the customer is liable for legal costs, which are added to the claim amount.
However, if the claim is not paid, the creditor is liable for accrued and disbursed costs. For further information, see the official tariff of Lög & Innheimta.
Do claims move from primary collection to legal collection automatically?
Creditors who use legal collection services are notified of which claims are moving to legal collection. If the creditor does not respond to this notification by postponing or cancelling the claims, the claims move to legal collection and legal collection notices are issued. However, specific legal collection procedures (such as a legal summons, a final reminder of overdue payment, official registration of the claim, or a request for a court-ordered sale) are at the request of the creditor.
