Make a payment

Pay the amount owed

Pay the amount using the details on your letter.

Propose a payment plan

Propose a payment plan. Instalment arrangements are standard practice here, and negotiated every week.

Dispute the debt

Dispute the debt. If you believe the amount is wrong or isn't yours, tell us in writing and activity on the disputed amount pauses while it's reviewed.

Yes, the letter is real

Here's what to do.

Capricorn Credit Pty Ltd is a Sydney debt collection agency operating since 1993, owned by practising solicitors. If you've received a letter, it references a genuine account. You can pay, propose a payment plan, or raise a dispute using the reference number shown. Nothing here needs a phone call you're dreading. Everything you need to respond is on this page.

HOW TO PAY

Pay now, or set up a plan.

Use your reference number to pay the amount owing directly, or tell us what instalment amount would work and we'll confirm a plan.

HARDSHIP

If paying would cause serious hardship ...

If paying this would cause genuine hardship, tell us.

IF YOU DO NOTHING

What happens if you ignore the letter?

Nothing happens immediately, but the account doesn't go away. Follow-up contact continues, and if there's still no response, the creditor may instruct legal proceedings, which can add costs to the amount owing. Responding, even just to dispute it, is always the better first move.
