The early 1970s was when Wescot was initially formed, and it was originally established as a partnership. In 1983, it was incorporated as a private limited company and Wescot Credit Services Ltd was born. The company operate throughout the UK and over the last 40 years have established themselves as the number one provider of receivables management services in the country.

Wescot Credit Services Ltd have a wide range of clients across a variety of sectors, including utilities, local government, retail finance services, banking and finance and telecoms and media. Over 50 of the biggest and most successful companies in the UK benefit from the products and services they offer.

Wescot Credit Services Ltd are a debt free company and see themselves in a strong trading position, with a turnover in the financial year ending February 2012 of £32 million. This means that they have sufficient capital to allow them to meet and exceed their clients’ ongoing needs. This makes them the obvious choice for customers who want a first class service.

Wescot Credit Services Ltd believes strongly in developing their people, which is why they have implemented a thorough learning and development programme for employees. This allows their staff to develop new skills and improve their chances of career progression. This in turn ensures that the firm’s clients are receiving the best service possible from knowledgeable and motivated individuals.

An excellent example of how Wescot Credit Services Ltd are able to provide real value to their clients can be seen in the work they recently carried out with Swift Advances. The exercise was to trace over 2,000 Swift customers who had already repaid their loans to the company. These customers were all due to receive a small refund and using its core ‘Locate’ range of services, Wescot were able to successfully trace almost 80% of the individuals. This far exceeded Swift’s expectations and the exercise was deemed very successful.

Wescot Credit Services Ltd are very proud to be the main sponsors at this year’s CCR-Interactive and Credit Excellence Awards. This is a prestigious event and further raises their profile within the industry. Furthermore, the deal that Wescot signed with global information services company Experian two years ago means they are in a fantastic position to deliver an even better service to their clients. The partnership between the two firms will help Wescot to adhere to strict regulatory guidelines, which further ensures that their customers get treated fairly.
