Financial institutions are usually the ones that offer personal loans to individuals. Typically, these personal loans expose financial institutions to a higher risk since they are unsecured loans. This means that the financial institution cannot go after the borrower’s assets in case he cannot pay for the personal loan.

The only remedy that these financial institutions have is to request payment of a personal loan. This request is usually in the form of a letter to be sent to the borrower. A request for payment must still be polite despite the borrower’s unpaid accounts. This can help a financial institution establish a good reputation, which can even lead to the immediate payment of the personal loan.

Here is a sample letter of request for payment of a personal loan. This might give you the idea on what to include in your own letter.

Dear Ms. Miles:

Our company would like to request for the payment of the personal loan you have made 8 months ago, on October 2, 2009. The terms of this personal loan, in which you and our company have agreed upon, include monthly payment of an interest of 5% and the payment of principal last April 2, 2010. You have only complied with this agreement for three months that includes the payment of 5% interest rate compounded monthly.

Please be informed that the remaining three months, from January to March, are not yet paid. In addition to that, you are also now required to pay for the principal. We have granted your request to give you two months grace period before you pay for the three months’ interest and the principal. However, we still have not heard from you since then.

The company has already given you two months grace period. We can still modify the terms for this loan to help you pay for it. You are still in our best interests. We want to hear from you soon regarding this personal loan. The company really appreciates an immediate reply to this letter. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mary Gold
President

Dear Mr. Herrera,

We would like to appeal to your kind assistance in providing one (1) set of computer equipment, software, and supplies to one of our public high school situated in a depressed area in Sapa, Samal, Bataan.

The students in this high school have not seen what a PC looks like and how it can transform their lives as a digital tool for education.

Although the public high school system is supported by the national government, due to a awful budget shortfall no funds are available to supply even one set of computer equipment to all public high schools.

It will make a substantial difference in bridging the digital gap between high schools in developed countries that have computers for each student as against one computer for an entire high school in a developing country such as ours.

We are attaching below a profile of our local public high school to give you an idea of the numbers of beneficiary that will be served by providing us with one set of computer equipment, monitor, software, printer and supplies.

We will provide the counterpart funds for training the teacher in the use of the computer as a teaching tool to the high school classes together with a one year donation of DSL connectivity through one of the major telecommunication company operating in the area of Samal.

We look forward to your favorable answer to our request.  If in case you have questions that need to be clarified, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you and with our heartfelt regards.

Very truly yours,

Erlinda Bonifacio
School Principal

Dear Mr. Manzano:

This is to request that I be allowed to open a credit account with your organization.

No doubt, you will recall that I have been buying computer parts from you for some time now, in a COD basis, but I should like the decided convenience of charging my purchases.  What I want is an arrangement whereby I can pay my bills within thirty days from the date I receive my invoice.

My business has grown materially during the past year, and I have recently added to my lists such substantial customers as Save and Delete Inc., Dataware Corporation, Datacom Inc., PC Compshop and Compdel Marketing.

I have my account in China Bank and Trust Company and gladly refer you to their Vice Presidet, Mr. Meynard Hipolito.

I am certain that the references given herewith will prove entirely satisfactory, and I therefore hope to hear favorably from you in the very near future.

Yours truly,
