Invoice chasing email template

Invoice chasing email templates that stay firm without sounding careless.

Use these UK B2B email templates as a starting point, then switch to SHVL when you need matching email drafts for every row in an aged-debtors CSV.

Polite reminder.

Subject: Reminder: invoice [invoice number]

Hi [name],

I hope you are well. I am checking in on invoice [invoice number] for £[amount], due on [due date]. Could you confirm whether this has been scheduled for payment?

Overdue invoice.

Subject: Overdue invoice [invoice number]

Hi [name],

Invoice [invoice number] is now [days overdue] days overdue. Please arrange payment of £[amount] or let us know today if there is a query we need to resolve.

Statutory-interest notice.

Subject: Final reminder: invoice [invoice number]

Hi [name],

Unless there is a dispute we are not aware of, we may add statutory interest and fixed compensation under UK late-payment rules. Please review and respond by [date].

When a template stops being enough.

A blank email template is useful for one invoice. It becomes error-prone when a bookkeeper or credit controller has 20 to 50 overdue rows, each with different due dates, amounts, days overdue, and compensation bands.

SHVL generates openable `.eml` drafts from the CSV, plus Word letters and an Excel calculation log, so the reviewer can check the pack before anything is sent.

Turn the template into a complete review pack.

Upload a sample CSV, preview the invoice count and totals, then create email drafts, letters, the calculation log, and README after checkout.
