Small Business Late Payment Problems

After getting no repsonse to normal chase up letters, I used to send a 7 day letter 'notice before proceedings' letter by registered post and if no response then used www.moneyclaim.gov.uk to start legal proceedings. Just make sure that you have your back up documents to support your claim and also the correct address for the Company. As it does cost to start the claim I would add this cost to the outstanding account in the 7 day notice before proceedings letter and say that they could avoid this charge if they paid in full within 7 days. A lot of them would pay up upon receipt of the notice and I think I only ever used the claim system twice - hope that helps as I know how difficult it can be to make people pay up!!
the company i use it costs £1 to send a LBA, after you complete the details they will send this to the debtor via email and then email you a pdf copy for you to print and post recorded delivery0
