1. Identify the company that the limit request relates to. 2. Enter and validate your limit request.
You may make a first limit request on a customer
or request an increase on an existing limit (the latter does not invoke
the collection of risk fees, unlike a first request).
Enter the amount and select the currency for your limit request:
if you are making a request on a foreign company (depending on the
conditions in your policy) you may choose a currency. The request
currency will always be converted and recorded in the standard
management currency (the euro). Selection of currency (euro by default):
- EUR (Euro)
- CAD (Canadian dollar)
- CHF (Swiss franc)
- GBP (Pound sterling)
- JPY (Yen)
- USD (US Dollar)
You also have the option to:
State credit terms Enter
the credit period in days (60,90,120, etc.) if and only if it is over
the standard credit period (displayed on the screen) provided for in
your policy. If you enter a credit period longer than the standard
period, then your request will not receive an immediate response.
Request “urgent processing” Tick
the “Express process” box. If you requests necessitates further
investigation, the response will be faxed as soon as the decision is
taken. If the limit request receives an automatic response, we ignore
the urgent processing request element and no extra costs will be
incurred.
Add comments Click
on “Add a comment”. If you add comments, the limit request will not
receive an immediate automatic response in order for us to take the
comments into account. Use this option if and only if you wish to add
particular elements to be assessed along with your limit request (e.g.:
particular events or elements relating to the request, etc.).
Give your customer references Enter
your own customer references, 20 characters maximum. Your references
will be shown on all correspondence relating to the customer concerned.
3. Confirm your credit limit request.
- Click on "Confirm" in order that Euler Hermes France responds to your limit request.
- Click on "Modify" to return to the input page to modify, cancel or add information to your limit request.
4. Enter banks references (account details) (not systematic). When
the customer is not known to us, we ask you for bank account details.
This information is very useful to speed up the processing of the limit
request.
- Else enter your customer’s bank account details and click “Validate”.
- Click “Confirm” to validate your input.
5. View the response from Euler Hermes France. The response to your limit request is either immediate or delayed. In both cases, the response will be sent to you by mail.
