“We used Coface twice in the last year in the UK to recover late payments and they were brilliant. In one case, we received the money just two or three days before the company files for bankruptcy,”

Credit Controller
"In some cases, a customer has approached us and asked why we have stopped supplying and we would say, we have passed the matter to Coface because it is a late-paying debt. That normally unlocks the payment quickly"
