Changing factoring company
Sadly many factoring companies make promises that they cannot keep and we now seem to be spending increasing amounts of time rescuing companies from poor factoring relationships to place them with factoring companies that actually offer the flexible, professional and personal service that they promised.
The
main reasons that companies are not happy with their factoring companies
include the following
They were promised a professional service but the sales ledger management and
credit control was particularly poor.
They were offered a flexible service whereas in reality their every actions
were governed by a strict rule book
They were offered a personal service but ended up having to discuss their
account with someone different every day
They were offered a competitive factoring quote whereas in reality the actual
cost was bumped up by a whole range of unforeseen extra charges.
And worst of all, they found that their cash flow was restricted by a range of artificial funding and credit limits imposed on them.
Factoring Solutions have more years of industry than most and unlike
other brokers our experience and background is on the operational side and not
sales so we know which factoring companies insist that their staff handle
twice the workload of others resulting in a second rate service. We know which
factoring companies offer potential clients the earth but once the ink is dry on the agreement
the operations staff refer to the "procedure manual" and we know which factoring
company will offer a much lower rate than anyone else but will end up costing
more due to the fact that everything is extra.
It should be straightforward but in reality it isn't and as we have very
real concerns with the way that some factors operate we have set out details
of the possible pitfalls in the following pages including such matters as "Why some factors offer such a poor service" and "Why the cheapest quote often works out much more expensive in practice"
There are no charges for our services and you therefore have nothing to lose but much to gain by speaking to us as we only introduce people to one of the few factoring companies that actually perform.
For an informal chat, please contact Factoring Solutions without any obligation whatsoever or click on the links for details on selecting the factoring company and why the cheapest factoring quote often works out more expensive in practice.
