Free overdue invoice reminder support for businesses

Debt recovery specialists Direct Route are offering an invoice reminder service for the price of a £1 donation to the NHS, to help pest management companies keep cash flow steady during the pandemic.

These are difficult times for everybody and in the BPCA Covid-19 impact survey, 74% of respondents revealed that they unfortunately had contracts cancelled because of the pandemic. 

Whether you're a one-man-band or a large multinational, chasing unpaid invoices often feels like an endless task. But now more than ever, that income is critical. 

An email chase service has been launched by Direct Route Collections, a UK business to business debt recovery specialist, with a one off £1 registration fee which goes straight to the NHS frontline appeal.

Michael Collins, Managing Director of Direct Route Collections said: “The first 600 hundred email chases have seen 90% of the businesses using this service receiving positive responses of immediate payments, payment promises and instalment plan offers - from genuine customers that perhaps for the first time ever find themselves with an unforeseen cashflow difficulty that has been forced upon them.”
