What it does
A final written notice on an overdue account before it moves into collections
States the outstanding balance, the original due date, and the specific next step, typically a deadline to pay before formal action begins. Formal in tone, specific in content, unambiguous about consequences. Not a reminder. The last communication before the relationship changes.

- ▸A commercial services company uses this when a business account has ignored multiple payment notices and the account is being escalated.
