In the event of an invalid telephone number or address, thorough and time- consuming skip tracing methods are employed. The attempt is not merely to collect information but to locate assets which will pay their delinquent debt.

One-half of all collection accounts require skip tracing.

Martel uses many skip tracer tools, including:

• City Directories
