Any time I have ever had a question I call Midwest and they have the answer. Any time I have needed advice they have been there for me and have guided me through the process. Their customer service is outstanding and their work ethic is even better! I couldn’t imagine a time when I wouldn’t need them.
Advanced/Preferred Physical Therapy
The team at Midwest Service Bureau has earned our trust for over 10 years based on their service, results, performance, and rates and that’s why they will continue to receive all our collection business. They deliver excellent customer service with quick responses, unlimited willingness to lend their assistance, ethical work values, and even training seminars that provide us with other processes and tools to reduce our collections activity. On top of that, I enjoy the relationships I have made with the people of MSB over the years. I have no reservation in recommending Midwest Service Bureau to others.
Earnest Heat & Air, Inc.
We have been doing business with Midwest Service Bureau for a while now. They have an extremely high recovery rate. They are always right on top of things, and get the job done. We have other credit services calling us but, we always tell them that we are happy with who we are using. We would highly recommend them to anyone.
Inspire ENT & Pulmonology
Our office has had a great experience with Midwest Service Bureau. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable, always available to answer questions. Our representative comes into our office once a month to check in and see how things are going for us. If we have any questions or issues they take the time to get them resolved. Midwest also offers training for the staff. We did take advantage of this opportunity and it was very helpful to the staff members that had no previous experience with collections. Through the training, the front office staff learned what information they should be gathering and the importance of it. I would highly recommend Midwest Service Bureau if you are looking for a collection agency.
Debbie P. Collection Manager
I have been employed with Sunflower Bank for over 20 years as the collection manager, and during that time have dealt with Midwest Service Bureau, LLC regarding collection accounts to include credit cards, loans, and deposit accounts. I have also dealt with them prior to coming to Sunflower Bank when I worked for GMAC out of Wichita, KS for roughly ten years. Omar Taha who is the President of this organization and her staff have provided wonderful customer service the entire time. A representative from the organization always contacted us in person once a month, and the face-to-face contact was always greatly appreciated. Their staff was always available to answer any questions or address any concerns we had. Their software program was very user friendly and make it an easy way to communicate regarding accounts. I would definitely recommend this organization if you are looking for a company to handle your collection accounts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the law on debt collection in Arizona?

Debt collection in Arizona is governed by the Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S. §§ 32-1001 to 32-1057) and the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). A major local requirement is that all collection agencies must be licensed and bonded by the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions. Arizona law also demands that collectors “deal openly, fairly, and honestly” with consumers, prohibiting any misleading or oppressive tactics.

Arizona’s timelines are shorter than Missouri’s. For credit card debt and written contracts, the statute of limitations is 6 years. However, for oral agreements (verbal contracts), the limit is only 3 years. Once a debt is “time-barred,” we can no longer sue to force payment, but we may still contact the debtor to request voluntary settlement, provided we do not threaten legal action we cannot legally take.

Yes. If an account is within the 6-year (written) or 3-year (oral) window, a creditor or agency can file a civil suit in an Arizona Justice or Superior Court. If a court judgment is obtained, it is valid for 10 years and can be renewed indefinitely every 10 years, allowing long-term collection efforts like property liens or asset seizures.

Yes, but only after winning a lawsuit and obtaining a judgment. Arizona’s garnishment laws are actually more protective than federal law due to Proposition 209. As of 2026, the amount that can be taken is limited to the lesser of 10% of disposable earnings or the amount by which weekly earnings exceed 60 times the highest applicable minimum wage (Arizona’s 2026 minimum wage is $15.15). This ensures debtors keep more of their income for basic living costs.

Arizona businesses should first ensure their contracts are in writing to benefit from the longer 6-year statute of limitations. The most effective path is partnering with a licensed agency like MSB. We use compliant demand letters and professional mediation to resolve balances. For difficult cases, we can transition to the legal phase to secure a judgment, which then allows for bank account levies or earnings garnishment.

No. Ignoring a licensed Arizona collector can lead to a default judgment. Because Arizona allows judgments to be renewed every 10 years, a debt you ignore today could follow you for decades, accumulating interest and eventually leading to the seizure of funds from your bank account or a lien being placed on your home.

You should verify the debt immediately. Under the FDCPA, you have 30 days to dispute the debt or request validation in writing. Check if the debt is past the Arizona statute of limitations. If the debt is valid, engaging with a professional agency like MSB is the best way to negotiate a settlement or payment plan that prevents a lawsuit and protects your credit standing.
