- Dear
-
- You deserve an explanation for what went wrong in our
- accounting department, and I hope that this letter will
- serve to resolve our recent difficulties.
-
- I know that you can appreciate the fact that it has
- taken some time to find out exactly what occurred, and,
- therefore, please accept our apologies for the delay in
- this response.
-
- Apparently, your payment was received in a timely fashion,
- but it was credited to an account which bears a similar
- name to yours. Therefore, we commenced sending you our
- standard notices requesting payment, in keeping with our
- routine policy. Even after the posting error was rectified,
- our accounting department failed to notify our credit
- department, which is why you continued to receive our
- correspondence demanding payment.
-
- I know how exasperating this has been for you and I am
- deeply sorry that it has taken so long to straighten out
- this problem. While there is a procedure within our firm
- to preclude this type of error from occuring, we are
- reinforcing this procedure.
-
- You have been a valued customer of ours for a long time
- and we appreciate your affording us the opportunity to serve
- you. You may rest assured that this problem will not
- surface again.
