asking for an extenstion of credit

dear mr.Hanh

thank you for you letter of november 1st. We fully appreciate your concern. And would like to assure you that we shall endeavour to settle our account with you in immediate future. We wish to propose the following:

An immediate part payment to imported machinery delayed by cheque post-dated to dated to augst 20th.
We would like six month's extension of credit , on which we will pay interest.


As you know, there have been problems with you payment by instalments within 6 months,plus interest. We are already experiencing some problems. Some time ago a fire has occurred in our company, so there are few constraints in production then we had to postpone it. Many of the losses we suffered due to these problems. In view of all these prospect are confident that we shall be able to clear any outstanding debts.

thank you for your assistence and patience, also for the excellent service your company has given us in the past.

your sincerely
