Final Payment Warning

You are about to send your last payment and want to ensure the creditor or collector knows it's your final payment.

Just marking "Final Payment" or "Paid in Full" on your check may not be legally sufficient enough to relieve you of the debt if the creditor or collector claims the account does not have a zero balance. Rather than risk additional costs, consider sending a letter that informs the creditor or collector that you intend to send a final payment in thirty days. If after 30 days you do not receive a response, you can assume the creditor or collector agrees with you.

 

Feel free to copy and paste the letter below into any word processor or, if you prefer, I'll send you an electronic copy absolutely FREE! Simply submit the form located at the right and I'll send a copy of this sample letter to whatever email address you provide.

Send your final payment marked paid in full and if the creditor or collector fails to respond but cashes your payment, you'll be on solid ground should they decide to take you to court. Use the free sample final payment warning letter below to draft your own letter that can be used to inform creditors and collectors of your final payment. CAUTION: Owing $1,000 and sending a payment for $10 marked "Paid in Full" will not only not work, it's unethical. Act in "good faith" and send a final payment warning only when you truly believe your next payment will pay off the debt.
