Spotlight on Atlas – Expat mail
One unique service Atlas offers is Expat Mail, an online portal that allows Australians living abroad to redirect their post to the firm, which is then scanned and uploaded so it can be viewed anywhere in the world.
Using a secure online account, clients can then instruct the firm how they would like to proceed. “We can destroy it, save it or post the originals to them and even pay a bill,” says founder and group managing director Brett Evans.
“If you are an Australian living in the UK and you get a rates notice on your house in Australia, we can put it up for you that day so you can make a decision.”
He says the idea for the tool came about from a number of “horror stories” where expats who rely on parents or loved ones to pick up their post were left facing unpaid bills or missing letters after an argument with relatives.
“We take out the emotion and make it a clear and simple process,” says Evans.
