Example of a letter to ask a Creditor to write off a debt
Dear Sir/Madam,
Account No: {{Your account or reference number*}}
I am writing to you about the current situation of our debt.
The current situation is bringing extreme financial hardship to our business.
We would be grateful if you would consider writing off the outstanding debt owing.
We have always been very responsible concerning our financial responsibilities. Unfortunately, the circumstances are so bad that we cannot maintain any payments at the moment. Please consider these factors when making your decision.
Our situation is very unlikely to improve in the future and our continued high debt level may have serious consequences on the very state of our business.
We would be grateful if you would seriously consider our request to write off the debt.
