Dear Mrs. Jones:
As of July 2 we have not received a payment for your May telephone services. We realize that unusual circumstances sometimes interfere with prompt payment. Current charges should be paid by July 14 to avoid termination of telephone services.
Please contact our office if you have special circumstances which are interfering with your ability to pay. If you are determined eligible, we can discuss alternative payment options. If we are not contacted and a payment is not received by July 14, telephone services will be disconnected. Reinstallation will require a zero balance, as well as a $35 reconnection fee.
You are a valued customer. We want to assist you in any way we can. If you have already sent your payment, we thank you.
Sincerely,
[/tab]
