Service Level Agreement

Background

• We have a reliable support desk, which enables us to give quick and efficient support to customers in the user and technical spheres.

• We undertake to deliver a backup of each Debt Counsellor’s PDA program to every specific Debt Counsellor, immediately after every distribution. This will give the Debt Counsellor full access to view all transactions effected by the PDA, which will greatly ease the Debt Counsellor’s task of attending to queries from Credit Providers and Consumers.

• We do frequent and timeous distributions to creditors.

• Creditor payment advices and distribution statements are created after distributions and are loaded onto the front-end system in PDF format for the convenience and easy reference of the Debt Counsellor.

• Efficient and timeous payments are effected to creditors on a two weekly basis.

• Each Debt Counsellor receives a dedicated trust account. Your clients pay their money into your dedicated account at the PDA. NO GLOBAL ACCOUNTS!

Debt-Wise

 

In order for Debt Counsellors to operate successfully they are required to perform a range of complex financial tasks to assist over indebted

consumers. These include re-arranging and re-negotiating creditor payments, advising credit bureaus of the consumer’s status, updating

the NCR constantly of the progress of processes and many more.  

Furthermore, in order to secure a viable income from the services they provide, Debt Counsellors have to restructure the debt of a number of

these consumers every month. 

Debt-Wise is an easy and inexpensive solution that encompasses all the functionality to successfully process and manage all the administrative procedures. The Debt-Wise system is already in use throughout South Africa and has been reviewed by the National Credit Regulator (NCR).

 

Because it is a web-based application, it is extremely user-friendly. Access is therefore not limited to a specific computer or pre-determined location like a specific office for instance. The user can log on and start working immediately from any location. All you need is an Internet connection, a Windows based PC or laptop with Mozilla Firefox loaded and off you go. There are no installation costs, no training fees (unless training is specifically requested) and no up-front expenses. In fact, there are no costs involved until your consumers (applicants for debt counselling) are handed to a Payment and Distribution Agency (PDA) for distribution. At that stage you would have received income out of the application already, which will enable you to cover your minimal monthly license fees.
