What’s different when we recover a debt in Canberra.

ACAT handles consumer disputes up to $25,000; the Magistrates Court of the ACT covers civil matters up to $250,000.

Every Recovia collector is trained on the ACCC/ASIC Debt Collection Guideline as the national floor and on ACT Fair Trading’s specific complaint-handling expectations as the local ceiling.
