Credit Protection Association Response
9ye appreciate comments but find it hard to believe that you worked full-time at The Credit Protection Association (CPA) as a salesperson, because experience proves if you had worked full-time and followed the recommended procedures, you could have been highly successful. Indeed, you would have made a very good income for yourself as so many other hundreds of people have done over the years we have assisted them to have successful careers. Rather than raise issues with us directly, unfortunately you have chosen to write anonymously so we never had the opportunity to address issues that you felt you had. Frankly, what you say is inaccurate and untruthful. All our salespeople are given exclusive territories which each have a minimum of 12,000 live eligible businesses to prospect who are not present members of CPA. We break up the United Kingdom into less than 90 sales territories so we cannot fathom how you can claim to have only 500 eligible businesses available. We do encourage our sales persons to break their territories into three zones and only work one zone at a time in order to prevent unnecessary traveling. But even then, each zone would contain thousands of businesses. We sell to all types of businesses that sell on credit and it is our interests to provide our salespersons with viable territories. Again, you make a blatant untruth in saying that the product is “worthless”, because, as so many thousands of happy commercial users have found, the success rate on overdue account recovery exceeds 80% of all accounts submitted; also the credit reports, instantly obtainable by clients, are amongst the best in the marketplace. Have the courage to reveal your name and I as Managing Director of CPA will be pleased to meet with you and discuss your time with CPA in a proper, business-like manner
