Factoring companies

[Robert Groom]

Can anyone recommend a factoring company I can use to facilitate a payments?

Yes, but a bit more info needed about company size, frequency of payments, single use or continuous use, do you want the people you're invoicing to know you're factoring?

@Ian J is the resident expert, but even he would need a bit more.

Thanks for the reply.
Looking at a one off payment initially but could become monthly.
It doesn't matter if the company knows i'm factoring or not.

As above @Ian J is your man (also as above, he will need lots more info to give reliable recommendations)

 

[Ian J]

Give me a call and I'll gladly chat it through with you and recommend the most suitable factoring company for your purposes

 

[Ian J]

No call so I wonder if that means that one (or more) of our less ethical forum members has contacted the OP directly

I'm not sure there are any other factoring brokers on this forum are there? Unless the non-ethical members just lurk in the shadows.

There are a couple of finance brokers who pretend they can do everything.

Including one of them who's contributions seem to consist solely of "I can do that"

And then there are some of us who can't do anything....!

Sshhh. I seem to have got away with it so far

I've had a good seven days for enquiries so far.

I wrote a piece on my factoring blog about a single invoice factoring company that I didn't like who had just gone bust and one of their clients read it and telephoned me.

Unfortunately I was on holiday in Sardinia last week and had my phone switched off whilst wandering around Alghero old town but switched it on at lunchtime to hear my messages. After listening to the message I pressed the button to repeat it so that I could write down the phone number but unfortunately I pressed the wrong button and deleted it. Doh

Two days ago I had an enquiry from the contact form on my website and despite telephoning several times and emailing her I haven't managed to make contact and now doubt whether I ever will.

On Tuesday I had a call from someone saying that they were setting up a recruitment company and his colleague recommended that he speak to me as someone who could offer factoring and back office services to his new start. When I explained that I was a broker and it was my job to introduce him to the most appropriate factoring company for his needs he said that he would speak to his colleague and come back to me on the following day. Needless to say he didn't.

I'll probably hear from him again in six months when he wants me to rescue him from the awful deal that he managed to do himself.

Never mind c'est la vie
