I'm curious: Is it possible to use a collection agency for just one account? I assume most of those places work in bulk for large companies, but I'm curious if some of them do small jobs. Heck, even if they took 75% as a commission, you'd get the satisfaction of making the customer pay. Also, I wonder if you have to prove anything to them about the situation before they will start harassing the customer. If it IS possible and legal to use a collection agency, those guys are really good at harassing people. My auto insurance company used one to collect from a guy who hit my car. It worked.
