Legal Action

Legal action is not covered by the "No Cure No Pay" agreement. If necessary, Guardian Credit Services provides custom quotes for legal action via the Debitura platform.

Process

To submit a debt-recovery claim to Guardian Credit Services, please first create a free profile on Debitura. Once registered, upload your claim through the Debitura portal, where the exact success fee will be clearly displayed prior to submission. During this process, you will digitally execute a Power of Attorney (PoA) via the Debitura platform, authorizing Guardian Credit Services to carry out pre-legal debt collection activities on your behalf.

Debitura’s Standard Debt Collection Agreement

As an exclusive Debitura partner, Guardian Credit Services operates under Debitura’s Standard Debt Collection Agreement. The Agreement also defines the Minimum Service-Level Requirements that must be met throughout the pre-legal stage.

Pre-Legal Debt Collection Workflow

The exact collection strategy is tailored to each case, yet it generally follows these steps:

  • Step 1 — Case approval (≤ 48 hours): Guardian Credit Services reviews the submitted documentation and confirms acceptance of the claim.
  • Step 2 — Skip-tracing: Debtor location and contact details are verified and updated in the system.
  • Step 3 — Formal demand notice: A written demand for payment is issued to the debtor.
  • Step 4 — Multi-channel collection campaign (60 days): A coordinated campaign involving inbound/outbound calls, emails, texts, and demand letters is conducted to secure payment. If immediate settlement is not achievable, an installment agreement is negotiated and signed.
  • Step 5 — Credit defaults registration: Credit defaults are registered with Centrix and Equifax to motivate debtor compliance.
  • Step 6 — Legal escalation (optional): If pre-legal efforts do not succeed, Guardian Credit Services may recommend initiating legal proceedings. Legal action falls outside the scope of the Standard Debt Collection Agreement. All associated costs will be clearly quoted in the Debitura portal and will require your explicit written approval before proceeding.
