Sweden has this construct that you should probably just copy:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enforcement_Authority https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enforcement_Authority
The US seems like it's stuck in the wild west ways of doing things.
- OrwellianChild 9y agoInteresting concept, though the Wikipedia article itself seems to indicate this system has its flaws: "In Sweden, even with the existence of the Enforcement Authority, it is still considered complicated, so most companies use debt collection companies for the process anyway, similar to in other countries."
- tolle 9y agoHuh? I mean, if you don't pay a bill, it'll usually go to a private company trying to collect it at first. But they simply send out another bill with an additional charge added. After a few attempts they will in turn hand it over to the Enforcement Authority. I've never heard of anyone using anything but the Enforcement Authority as a last resort to claim a debt.
