Debt recovery specialists at Singapore Debt Collection Service really want people to know that they are not loan sharks; they are just mediators working out a compromise between creditors who want their money back, and debtors who don’t have enough.
How do debt collectors recover money owed? Comedian Rishi Budhrani becomes a debt recovery specialist and discovers that it is a tough job for tough guys.
Rishi is put through the paces and learns where the line is between legal debt recovery and illegal collection. He is given a case to handle on his own, and quickly has to figure out how to track down the debtor and negotiate payment.
Eventually, Rishi heads out to confront

But in reality, as the debtor you can be stuck in a situation where you're not financially stable or even able to get the money back readily to repay your creditor. And from the creditor side, it is very easy to get upset and ignorant cos you just want your money back and you're tired of handling your debtors in person but not easy to stop and realize that doing so isn't helping the situation.

They will promise sky promise mountain in what they will do, how they will update you etc etc… On top of that, they will cut a certain % once debts collected. In truth fact, nothing was done. Client still have to chase them for update. They are rude and unresponsive in email and calls. Got time to do interview with CNA, yet no time to do real chasing. “Sugar Coated” someone commented….VERY TRUE man.

Bankruptcy means no loans, bad credit rating (which affects your job proposition) You cannot leave the country without the OA/PTIB’s permission. You cannot hold public office. You cannot be a company director without the approval of the OA. You cannot Sue any party in court (except for personal injury or matrimonial proceedings) without the OA’s/PTIB’s approval. Your Bankruptcy will be entered into Singapore’s bankruptcy register, which anyone can freely search. You can continue to work, but not in high positions (basically you screw over your career prospects) Your Credit score will be affected

Couldnt this be an easy way out for some debtors? for example, a debtor could agree to a loan with a bank on an unfavourable contract/ repayment date, then just refuse to pay, when the sdcs shows up, ask and agree for a more favourable repayment plan. obviously this is only hypothetical but it seems like a potential loophole

Unless Big Amount or Companies ..U guys uniform like Cisco n make their Family members pai seh with neighbours cause their Son issue aiyah ...or if they got family with medical issue inside how bro ? Their son owe $2 k ++ but their Expenses Monthly Jus 2 Survive i believe Jus 2 Pay n Pay also $2 k - $3 k cheh no doubt.... Nothin 2 brag about being authorised 2 collect Money fm Debtors jus be mindful n Try 2 avoid making uninvolved individual out of tis nego in Initial stage ,as most debtors in debt due 2 a reason for sure UNLESS they are repeated borrowers u can chek 4 sure .. thx

Police usually cannot deal with these cases because of a lot of legal barriers. A lot of these debts are owed between private entities and the correct legal action usually is to take them to court. Police don't act as debt collectors. If you get a court summon and don't show up then police can act.

@sleepyboi7 2 года назад

I guess. But for fraud cases like payment made but goods or services not delivered, shouldn't the police help the victim to recover their money? I mean if given supporting documents for e.g. Bank Advice and Communication Correspondence in Carousell.

@AVeryNormalGuy 2 года назад

@@sleepyboi7 Police not hired strength... If you have the documents then go find a lawyer to sue for breaking contract... What makes you think the police has the jurisdiction to settle legal contracts between private entities?? If it's a legal problem, go find a lawyer.. your lawyer will prove your supporting documents are valid or not. You have some paper means you can call police to jail people anyhow? Did you call the police down when you make the contract that if they don't pay they will be jailed by the police? If the police not involved in the contract why would they enforce it for you? You want the police to go their house and harrass them? This isn't that difficult to understand. The police is there to enforce public law, not your personal loan. If you want to prove fraud also need go lawyer. Unless they physically stole money from you or operate a known fraud operation fat chance they jail anyone for you lol.

@theachilles96 2 года назад

Bro, police deal with criminals. If you owe people money and police come knocking on your door, how do you feel? You feel like a criminal right? And you think police got time to settle each and every Singaporean's personal problems? These are all civil cases. Police don't handle civil cases.

Do some (or should I say ‘many’) debt collection agencies - especially working for overseas clients who are not familiar with Spore laws & customs - actually give the debtor a ‘discount’ and then tell the client the debtor has gone into bankruptcy? That way, the collection agency has actually bilked their clueless overseas client while pocketing the ‘discounted’ payment from the debtor. So instead of helping their overseas client, they have in fact ‘pakat’ with the debtor with a reduced payment. I’ve heard of a case like that but I’m not sure how common it is.
