Dear Mr/Ms Recipient’s Name,

This letter is in reference to a $5,000 loan that I gave you on June 4, 20xx for the down payment on your new car. We promised at the time that the loan would be paid off in full by December 4, 20xx. 

You have not made any payments toward this debt as of today, December 4, 20xx. It’s been a year since the loan was due to be fully returned. I request that you reimburse the entire sum as soon as you receive this message.

If I do not receive full payment by the end of the year, I reserve the right to pursue additional legal action to recover the loan amount without further notice to you. This letter could be used as evidence in court if you don’t pay. 


If it becomes necessary to go to court, I will expect you to pay the applicable interest, filing and attorney’s fees, as well as any other costs associated with the case. If you phone me at [555-222-1234], I will be pleased to answer any queries you may have.

Your immediate attention to this matter will be appreciated.

Sincerely,

Signature
