When accounts go overdue, delays cost your business money. Our award-winning 48-hour debt collection process acts immediately so your cash flow does not suffer. Many firms will take 7 days before this happens (if and when they get to it). Within 48 hrs the case is confirmed and the debt collection initial contact is sent out within 48hrs.
This structured approach delivers faster outcomes than typical debt collection agencies and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. Debt amounts can range from under $1,000 to well over $100,000. We treat every account with the same level of urgency and attention as if the funds were owed to us.
Melbourne businesses and organisations across Australia rely on ACS Debt Collection because we deliver consistent, professional outcomes. We work across a range of industries including:
Every debtor situation is different. Our team adjusts communication accordingly, whether that requires a firm and fair conversation, with Payment in full, a structured payment arrangement, or escalation through legal channels or a hardship assessment.. Our team is well trained in all circumstances and adjusts the conversation as required while building rapport and maintaining the business relationship.
One of the biggest concerns Melbourne businesses have about engaging debt collectors is the fear of permanently damaging customer relationships. We address this directly through our balanced, professional approach. Respectful communication sits at the centre of everything we do. We recover what you are owed without burning bridges.
This is precisely why leading schools, commercial operators, and businesses across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and nationally continue to trust us as their preferred debt recovery agency.
Engaging a third party to do the collections also takes the Emotion out of the collections process so it does not get personal. This also assists with maintaining the ongoing relationship with your business and customer. While getting you paid!
We believe in transparent, performance-driven pricing. To support everything from occasional outstanding invoices to high-volume corporate ledgers, we offer two distinct, flexible payment options:
Option 1: Standard No Collection, No Fee Model
Perfect for businesses looking to recover selective overdue accounts with absolutely zero financial risk.
Zero Upfront Costs: No retainers, no hidden administration charges, and no risk.
Pure Performance Pricing: You only pay a commission percentage when we successfully recover your funds. If we don’t collect, our standard service costs you nothing. Commission rates for this standard tier are assessed and quoted upon consultation based on the age and nature of the debt.
Option 2: High-Volume Annual Subscription Tier
Designed for corporate operators, property managers, and businesses with ongoing recovery needs who want to exchange a small flat fee for locked-in, discounted commission rates.
The Subscription: A flat $495.00 per annum (inc. GST) covers unlimited debt load submissions with no exclusivity caps or hidden lock-in periods.
The Benefit: Instantly unlocks our lowest, pre-agreed commission matrix for any debt you submit throughout the year.

ACS Debt Collection has been helping Australian businesses recover outstanding accounts since 1997. Here is what sets us apart as a debt collection agency in Melbourne:
Our knowledgeable debt collectors and nationally authorised field agents work directly on your accounts with full transparency and regular reporting.
NO, In Victoria, a debt generally becomes "statute-barred" 6 years after the date of default or the date the debt was last acknowledged in writing or part-paid. Once a debt passes this limitation period under Victorian law, Collections and legal enforcement through the courts is no longer an option.
At ACS, we strictly recover legally enforceable debts. Under Australian regulatory guidelines (specifically ASIC/ACCC Regulatory Guide 96), attempting to pursue a statute-barred account without explicitly informing the debtor that they are no longer legally required to pay constitutes a severe breach of consumer law. Our Melbourne team will audit the age and history of your outstanding invoices during your free consultation to ensure compliance before any action is taken.
If overdue accounts are affecting your cash flow and consuming your internal resources, ACS Debt Collection is ready to step in. As a trusted debt collection agency in Melbourne with nearly 30 years of experience and a 72%+ success rate, we have the process, the people, and the proven track record to recover what you are owed.
Our No Collection, No Fee model means there is no financial risk and a 48-hour response guarantee means we start working immediately. Our firm-but-fair approach means your professional relationships stay intact throughout the recovery process.
Speak with our local team at 1 Queens Rd, Melbourne VIC 3004. Call us today on 02 9790 6877 or email info@acsdebtcollection.com.au for a free consultation. We are available Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
