Unpaid balances on finaled accounts will be submitted to an external collection agency. Customer will be responsible for additional fees and related collection charges. If you are contacted by a collection agency, you will need to communicate with them until your debt is resolved. Central Collections will not be able to discuss amounts due and will not be able to accept payments toward this debt. For all accounts submitted to a collection agency, all payments must be made directly to the collection agency. Note that funds collected by the collection agency may take up to three weeks to apply against the account. New service will not be provided until this debt is resolved.
Central Collections does not accept “Starter” or “Temporary” checks for any payments. Payments using temporary checks presented in person will be refused. Payments using a temporary check received via mail will be returned to the customer with a letter notification as to the reason for the return.
