Dear {{client_contact_person}},

Body of Request

This letter serves as an urgent notification regarding your account with {{company_name}}, Account Number: {{account_number}}. Our records indicate that your outstanding balance currently stands at {{outstanding_balance_currency}} {{outstanding_balance_amount}}, which unfortunately exceeds your agreed credit limit of {{credit_limit_currency}} {{credit_limit_amount}}.

The excess amount of {{excess_amount_currency}} {{excess_amount_amount}} requires your immediate attention.

Prompt payment will prevent further accumulation of charges and allow us to continue providing our services without interruption. You can make payment via {{payment_methods_accepted}}.

Please note that until the excess amount is settled, your account may be placed on hold, and no further credit facilities will be extended. We value your business and wish to ensure a smooth continuation of our relationship.
