    Weird letter

    Got a letter from former clientCo - haven't worked with them for 18 months. (I was direct)

    Request for Information - supplier accounts.

    Asks me to provide prints of any outstanding items, including invoices etc. for accounts in the name of ClientCo.

    Is this usual? Or have they lost track of who they owe what? How much can I fleece them for?

    Sounds like they got an upcoming audit of some sort

      Ah, mebbe. Guess I should tick the 'nil' box and return it.

        Have you considered getting in touch to ask what it's about?

          Put £20k and send it back. They may be in Administration so worth a punt that the auditors pay you something.

            Sounds like this to me.

              That did cross my mind.

              Can I charge an administration fee for the RFI?

                And interest for non payment.

                  Probably better with a payment for non interest.
                  While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                    Had this a few years back.
