Accounts Receivable

Excuse me sir...
But it seems we have a small problem.
Your account is falling past due---
has been for several months
and though we've contacted you,
sent several gentle reminders
and even made a few calls,
you seem intent on ignoring it.
We recognize that anyone can go through a bad spell,
and would hate to have to formally sever
long time, established relationship---
Your credit has always been good.
We note a pattern here---
a few payments will come in...
then nothing for months.
If we knew what was wrong,
perhaps we could make some accomodation...
But we cannot continue
to allow you to ignore us.
If you have already made some arrangment,
please forgive us
and just ignore this notice.
But Please sir---
make some effort
to clear up this matter.

Thank you for you time...
Oh yes...and have a nice day.
