Client portal FAQs
Baycorp's online Client Service allows you to view the current status of defaulting customers in "real time". It is an efficient tool that enables you to load debts, gain access to status information and request action on your defaulting customer files in real time.
There is a one off $50 plus GST fee to open an account. Once the account is opened, each debt loaded is $7.50 plus GST for Online Clients only. On all payments recovered from your debtor in NZ, there is a 25% plus GST commission charged. On all payments recovered from your debtor overseas there is a 30% plus GST commission charge. If no money is collected there is no commission charged. Please feel free to talk to our Client Services team as you may be able to recover some of these charges from your debtor.

If the conversations you have with non-paying customers fail, the sooner the better. There are some pains and pitfalls in hanging onto bad debts for a long time.
Our clients can use a client portal on our website – this has useful detail on what’s happening with the debt.
If you’re already a client, and would like a log-in set up for you, please contact Client Services on 0800 800 713 and they will provide you with a user name and password.
We have to be honest - we can’t give you a time frame.
How long it takes to resolve a debt depends on so many factors such as the age of the debt, the customer’s changing ability to pay, time to locate them, and how they respond to our follow up.
The short answer is no. It’s not possible to guarantee that a debt will be recovered. We incur costs (excluding legal and field fees) which our clients don’t have to pay for. It is therefore it is in our best interests to do everything reasonably possible to collect the money so as to recover our costs.
We place all money collected to our Audited Trust account, and do a once a month reconciliation and payment to you by bank transfer to your bank account on the 10th working day of the month following receipt.
No. We only purchase the debts of large corporates in New Zealand.
No. Collecting debt using physical force, harassment or by misleading or deceptive means goes against our brand values. There is a difference between what’s in the movies and reality.
We also know that New Zealand is a very connected place with real community ties in every district. By far most often our clients would like to both get paid, and take care of their local business and personal reputation by conducting debt recovery in a professional and respectable manner. Baycorp “gets that” and is the ideal partner to achieve both.
No. Having charges ticking over on-going fees has never been our approach. If you have any questions regarding our performance based charges please contact us on 0800 229 267 or email enquiries@baycorp.co.nz.
Please contact our Client Services team on 0800 800 713 or email clientservices@baycorp.co.nz we’ll reset it for you and have you underway in no time.
In many cases we will refer you to a third party such as the Disputes tribunal to hear the matter. Once you have a judgment, if you still don’t get paid, we can then load the case and be in a position to resolve your debt.
We collect a wide range of debts across many industries. The debts we collect include everything from unpaid electricity and mobile phone bills, to unpaid credit cards, loans, council rates, parking fines and veterinarian charges.
Yes. If your customer doesn’t pay a bill it can negatively impact their credit rating. Several factors will determine someone’s credit worthiness such as their payment history, outstanding debts and the length of their credit history.
Yes we do. Our in-house legal team can support you with legal proceedings.
Yes. We can serve documents on your behalf. To find out more please contact us on 0800 229 267 or email enquiries@baycorp.co.nz.
