Dear [recipient's name]:

I am writing regarding my account number 233288 with your company, which currently has a balance owed of $497.35. As a result of unemployment and financial hardship, I am unable to make payments on this account. I have every intention of resuming payments as soon as my financial situation improves.

Please contact me if you have any comments or questions. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

[Signature]
