At only £10 inclusive of VAT, a letter before action demands payment from the debtor within 7 days, failing which Court action will be commenced. Our debt recovery statistics show that in 70% of cases where a letter before action is issued, Court proceedings have been avoided.
On instructing our specialist debt recovery solicitors to send the letter before action, please contact us to arrange a card payment or alternatively a cheque can be sent. Once payment is made, we will:
- Check that your debtor is still active on Companies House (if your debtor is a Limited Company)
- Calculate any contractual interest payable (arising from your terms and conditions) or statutory/late payment interest and/or compensation from the due date of each invoice.
- Acknowledgment of your instructions by email to confirm that the letter before action has been sent together with details of the amount demanded (interest and/or compensation).
- Contact made by email to you after 7 days to check whether payment has been received. If not, we will provide you with details of court action.
Our debt specialists have developed an online debt recovery instruction form so that you are able to instruct us instantaneously. For volume instructions we have a simple and quick instruction form designed to handle any volume of recoveries, please contact us for further details.
Our debt recovery solicitors guarantee to send a letter before action on the same day of instruction (subject to payment for this service) unless your instructions are received after 4pm.
Please note that we do not provide copy letters.
