Mission Statement
'To recover money that is rightfully owed to our clients by providing the same advice that we would give to ourselves if we were in a similar situation and always exceeding our clients and regulators expectations.'
Who are we?
A Debt Collection Agency that produces exceptional results
Athena Collections is a hybrid Receivables Management and Debt Collection Agency. We specialise in all types of credit activity from early stage accounts receivables to late stage post insolvency proceedings and everything in-between.
Athena Collections is headed up by Managing Director, Andrew Athineos. His experience exceeds 20 years in accounts receivable, debt collection, commercial debt recovery, Business to Business debt collection (B2B), Business to Consumer debt collection (B2C), insolvency and litigation. Andrew has been instrumental in growing businesses and as a result he has directly been involved in recovering in excess of £30 million.
We understand that the lifeblood of every business is its cash flow. Our outstanding debt collection processes will recover your debts as quickly as possible but most of all without any disruption to your business. A debt collection agency such as ourselves is what may be required to make cash flow problems a thing of the past.
Why are we different?
Debt Collection at its finest
A Thorough, Highly Effective Nationwide Agency. We are passionate about the debt collection service that we offer to our customers and pride ourselves on resolving organisational debt issues with diligence and sensitivity.
Our most noteworthy aim other than to recover what is rightfully yours is to maintain your relations with your current clients, where possible, to allow an ongoing relationship.
As an innovative debt collection agency we like to be at the forefront of regulatory change and combining this with our good practice we like to ensure we always get the best results for our clients.
Keep It Simple
Our Debt Collection Fees...
With no sign up fees or contracts to sign, we work on a NO COLLECTION, NO COMMISSION basis. This means we will only charge our commission on any monies actually collected. It is as simple as that! Just instruct us as and when you like, no obligations.
Our charging structure is simple. The earlier the debt is passed to us the lower the commission rate. Starting from as low as 5% up to 25% for post-judgment debts. We can also agree to cap our commission on larger debts. If you work with another debt collection agency, we will be happy to match or better our commission rate so you can benchmark our performance.
We are open and transparent about the entire debt collection process and therefore if legal action is required, then there will be additional costs but don't worry. We will advise you of your options and associated costs and we will only proceed if you explicitly instruct us to do so. In most cases, such fees will be recoverable from your debtor. We may be able to recover all your costs and interest if you have a provision in your terms and conditions/agreement with your debtors. Alternatively, if you are a company we are able to add compensation costs and interest to the debt in accordance with the 'Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998'.
