“We have used FastPay LTD for our direct debit collections since our companies inception over 6 years ago. At all times we have found them to be a proactive, dynamic and professional team who deliver on their word. Their easy to use systems and processes mean that we have rarely had to call on their services except for advice, which has always been both accurate and readily forthcoming When we required urgent help owing to a 3rd party issue, FastPay reacted quickly and pragmatically, going well beyond what we could reasonably expect. Without FastPay, their industry knowledge, contacts, and the amazing team which underpin it, our business would simply not be able to function. I would highly recommend them to any business, and have referred numerous customers and colleagues to them.”

“As a business owner, getting the invoices paid on time, if at all, is one of the most time consuming and unenjoyable tasks I had to undertake. FastPay has taken that pain away for good, yes it is a big learning curve but it is worth the effort. To see the funds arrive in my account at the end of the month without any hassle, phone calls, letter sending...”
