warning before recording claim

[Solosmurf]

Mercers were billed/invoiced on 10th Feb and have not paid so I am getting ready to warn them for non payment and billing them the overdue payment charges.

This is what I have so far:

Please note that you have now accrued ** days late payment fees of £** as a result of the non-payment of Bill/invoice dated 10th Feb.

Should I not receive payment of the outstanding amount within the next 7 days i will have no choice but to file a claim againt you for the full amount, including late payment fee and charges for any additional phone calls and correspondence in the interim

What do you think? I know it will need changes made before I send it.

Look forward to your comments

Notice of fault and opportunity to cure, then notice of default, then file time. Do it as they would.

Thanks Ceylon I take it there are form letters somewhere? I will look up the terminology and see what comes up.

Hi Solosmurf, I'm coming up to about that stage now, how did you word it in the end? Thanks,

So far have not taken this forward as I have been passed on to yet another agency before I had it finalised. Just waiting til 19th of August when hopefully I can send them the Estoppel letter. Funny how they seem to send out letters just in time.
