Past Due Notice (GA)
Most customers pay their bills on time, but sometimes they might have late or missed payments. If this happens, you can send them this past due notice letter to let them know their payment is overdue, remind them of the goods or services the payment is for, and ask them to pay you as soon as possible.
The letter can be customized for situations where the customer was sent an invoice, an agreement was signed, or if there was nothing in writing.
This past due notice letter is intended to be a first notice of a missed or late payment. If the customer continues to withhold payment, you can also use our formal demand for payment letter, which is a little more strongly worded. Both letters may be useful as evidence if you need to pursue a collection action for this payment later on. If you want to start a collection action, you should consult an attorney or collection agent as many states have specific requirements on how to proceed.
