英文催款函
英文催款函（一）：
Subject: Insisting on Payment
Dear Sirs，
Account No。8756
It is very difficult to understand why we have not heard from you in reply to our two E-mail of 8th and 18th September for payment of the sum US$ 80，000 you are still owing。 We had hoped that you would at least explain why the account continues to remain unpaid。
I am sure you will agree that we have shown every consideration and now you fail to reply to our earlier requests for payment， I am afraid you leave us no choice but to take other steps to recover the amount due。
We are most reluctant to do anything from which your credit and reputation might suffer and even now we prepare to give you a further opportunity to put the matter right。We therefore propose to give you 15 days to clear your account，
Yours faithfully，
xxx
催款函主题：三度索取欠款 如何做外贸
亲爱的先生：
第8756号账单
我们于9月8日及9月18日两次去函要求结付80，000美元欠款，单至今未收到贵方任何答复，对此我们感到难于理解。我们期望贵方至少得解释为什么账款至今未付。
我想你们也明白我们对贵方多方关照，但你们对我们先前的两次询函不作答复。你们这样做恐怕已经使我们别无选取，只能采取其他步骤来收回欠款。
我们极不愿意做任何损害你们信誉的任何事情。即使此刻我们还准备再给你们一次机会来挽回此事。因此，我们再给你们15天时光来结清账目。

英文催款函写作注意要点：
既然双方都明白逾期付款一事，收信人不大可能是遗忘了，那就不必说“as you must assume that this is due to an oversight on your part。”
另外， 当遇到最后一次催款时，也不宜说 “we should be very sorry to have to take such a step after a long and friendly connection with you。”这样给人冗长、态度虚伪的感觉，既然有“长久的友谊关系”，又何必要撰写这样的催款函呢！
此外，说 “We would be grateful if you would send your payment。”就有“假客气”之嫌。要想表达诚挚的协商，不妨这样说 “I would be grateful if you could settle this account within the next。。。 days。”
