My records show that there is £x outstanding from the last window clean on {insert date}.

Please post a cheque to the above address, or other payment options are available at pay.iconicwindowcleaning.co.uk (http://pay.iconicwindowcleaning.co.uk)

Thanks andy  ;D do you think a letter explaining that they always pay late every month would be acceptable or would customers get upset  :P

some customers always pay late, so long as it gets paid in some sort of reasonable time

you could always put on new ticket/invoice/bill

cleaned today 10 jan 2012

last clean 8 dec 2011 payment received 3 jan 2012  and in thank you for payment
you could put days it took to pay say thanks for paying in 21 days a prompt to how long it took to pay

it it worth the record keeping?

I must be too lax with my customers. I tell them pay me whenever it suits them. I say I don't mind it mounting up as long as they don't mind it mounting up and as long as they pay in the end of course.
 I have some customers who pay me a few months advance and some a few months in arrears. It all comes through in the end.
