Object: Notice of Credit Limit

Dear [Client.FirstName],

We hope that this letter finds you well. We are writing to you to bring to your notice the current state of your account balance at [Sender.Company].

A review of your account indicates that you have a current balance of (amount) due to [Sender.Company]. Your current credit limit with [Sender.Company] is (amount), which puts you in excess of your limit by (amount).

At [Sender.Company], we carefully assess every individual's account in order to provide you with a credit limit we believe is consistent with both your interests as a customer and our interests as a financial institution. At present, we believe that your credit allowance of (amount) is appropriate for both of our interests.

Unfortunately, since you have exceeded your credit limit at [Sender.Company] by (amount), we will be unable to extend your account balance further until we receive a payment from you that brings you back within the limits of your account.

We would also like to bring to your attention that since you have now reached your credit limit at [Sender.Company], the C.O.D. (cash on delivery) terms have changed. As such, we are now only able to ship future orders to you on a C.O.D. basis. This will continue in the future until you make a sufficient payment to reduce your account balance and bring your account at [Sender.Company] back in good standing.

In order to make a payment and return your account to good standing at [Sender.Company], please send us a check immediately for the excess amount due to the below address.
