This is precisely why<strong>our intervention remains relevant<\/strong>: in difficult times, a (debt collection) service that keeps<strong>humanity<\/strong>at its core is crucial!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Neither schools nor parents should have to break their heads over unpaid school bills<\/strong>. In reality, however, we see that this problem is<strong>inevitable<\/strong>, but we do believe that our framing and support offers<strong>a correct answer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">A cost-effective amicable solution for both the school and parents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We look for<strong>a suitable amicable solution tailored to both the school and the parents, avoiding escalating (bailiff) and procedural costs and preserving the relationship between both parties<\/strong>.<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tcm.be\/de-reele-rol-van-incasso-in-de-strijd-tegen-schulden-op-school\/\">We do not pass on our operating costs to the families<\/a><\/strong>(which is forbidden by law for all actors who collect school invoices amicably), and our follow-up always includes<strong>the possibility of a (free) payment plan<\/strong>if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Human emphasis ensures complaint-free course<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our support allows schools to focus on their core teaching tasks. Our<strong>human emphasis<\/strong>has been bearing fruit for decades: in all these years, during which we have approached thousands of parents,<strong>no complaint has ever reached us or the schools<\/strong>. We are proud of that! We realise that we have<strong>a social role to play as mediators<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We wish you a happy new school year, and hope to continue relieving you in the future thanks to our<strong>cost-saving approach with a long-term solution as our goal<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Do you have difficulties with the regional nuances yourself and would you like to obtain more information about collecting unpaid invoices in Belgium, the Netherlands or abroad?
