Debt Collection Letters That Work
There are a few debt collection letter samples you can see here. One of them is good as the first reminder to the recipients to pay their debt. The second debt collection letter is also good as a kind reminder. However, the last collection letter is quite firm. It asks the recipients to follow the instruction in the letter. Otherwise, the writer will impose the sanction towards the recipients if they fail to do the instruction. Please have a look.

Dear Mr. Ronaldo,
RE : Debt Repayment Reminder
On behalf of Asian Bank, I would like to remind you of the overdrawn amount on your current account. The overdraft has been going on for a month with the outstanding amount of Rp 2,000,000. Therefore, we kindly request you to top up the balance before the end of this month. Otherwise, further actions may be taken against you.
If you have already settled this amount, please ignore this reminder. I thank you for your prompt settlement.
Thank you for your transactions with Asian Bank.
Sincerely,

Dear Good Buy Furniture Shop:
We have tried to settle this matter, your account has not been paid yet and is long overdue. If you do not perform your obligation to pay your debt of $5,400, we will turn your account over to our collection agency Boston Revenue Services for collection.
We know that our action will damage your credit rating and your ability to do business with other companies. To avoid this, we really urge you to contact us today to find the best collection process or make immediate payment in full today.
We really enjoyed doing business with you. Unfortunately, if you do nothing today, we are forced to turn it over to the agency mentioned above.
Sincerely,
John Churchill
