General overview of fair debt collection practices in Scotland
Debt collection is a process of obtaining late payments from individuals or businesses. In Scotland debt collection and recovery in B2B is quite an important task since many companies find themselves in a situation where business partners do not pay the invoices for goods or services provided on time. That is why companies have two options in terms of debt collection: to outsource a debt collection agency or to initiate a court proceeding.
Many companies prefer the 1st option for various practical reasons. Nevertheless, one of the few peculiarities that a company which outsource debt collection services needs to remember is that the way that process is carried out needs to be in accordance with fair debt collection practices.

Fair debt collection practices in Scotland are quite an important thing to follow. It is a set of actions, or a so-called guideline, which prevents debt collectors from inappropriate actions towards debtors.

First of all, debt collectors can contact the companies by sending them letters of demand, reminders, and making phone calls during business hours. All communication has to comply with the established rules of business communication.
Unfair debt collection practices include any tactics used that overstep boundaries. Any form of harassment is a criminal offense in Scotland. Such actions may include: phoning unreasonable amounts of times during the day or night, talking to others (staff, employees) about the debt, threatening you physically or verbally, and creating fake court orders.
