EWI welcome Westbury Collections Ltd as Supplier Partner

byWiebke Morgan

Located in Epsom, Westbury Collections Ltd has over 20 years debt recovery experience, with directors and management spending a career lifetime within the industry. Westbury Collections acts both for large corporate companies and small businesses ensuring a consistent service is a priority.


They are one of the fastest growing debt recovery agencies in the UK.

​​

As part of the partnership, Westbury Collections Ltd will be offering EWI members a discount of 3% on their Commission Rate (usually 15%), and a dedicated Account manager.


Westbury works on a “no collection – no commission” basis which gives them extra incentive to recover debts. And in many cases, they can recover their commission directly from the debtor. Please see their services and collections for more information.

 

EWI CEO, Simon Berney-Edwards, said: “We are delighted to welcome Westbury Collections Ltd as new supplier and we very much look forward to working with them. While we offer advice on Terms and Conditions, non-payment for Expert Witness work is, sadly, an all too familiar challenge identified by our members. This partnership provides great value for members; giving them access to a cost-effective solution for debt collection and the assurance that there will be transparency and clarity about costs of debt recovery.

 

Anthony Browne, Director of Westbury Collections Ltd, said about the new partnership: “We are pleased to have been asked to join the institute as Supplier Partners.  We look forward to providing its members with exceptional service and helping them retrieve payments in the coming years.”

 

More information on Supplier Partners and the benefits offered to EWI members can be found on the website.
