IRS ends use of private collectors
From the AP: IRS dumps private debt collectors, shifts pendulum
From IRS: IRS Conducts Extensive Review, Decides Not to Renew Private Debt Collection Contracts
I didn’t have any real world experience dealing with the private collectors, so I can’t comment on how this experiment actually worked out. If anyone wants to share some examples of their real life experiences with the contract collectors, I’d be glad to post those. There’s a good chance this will be attempted again in the future.
