The letters that make the claim hold
A reminder sent too early triggers no fee. A formal demand with a nine-day deadline is invalid. A settlement without an enforcement clause is merely an agreement.

The letters sit in the order they are used
If the invoice fell due yesterday, it is the reminder process. If the claim needs securing before it goes wrong, it is the agreements.

- Payment agreement (instalment plan) The simple instalment agreement — for when you want the money in instalments, but do not need a full settlement. An agreement, not an instrument
- Payment reminder before the due date The friendly email a few days before the due date — the cheapest reminder there is, precisely because it is not a reminder. 3 days before the due date
