Bad Debt Collection Letters to the Moderately Late
More about debt collection letters:
It is better to use regular mails early on, at least where domestic collections are concerned. All creditors have their own definition of what constitutes moderately late. Large firms who extend revolving credit lines to millions of people make phone calls and send reminder letters almost immediately to someone who is past due, but the accounts are kept open, sometimes for months. Once someone fails to pay his/her balance in full, make the minimum payment due, or make partial payment arrangements with you, and he/she is more than a week past their due date, there is a problem. It's time to send reminder past due sample collection letters.
