Dear [Recipient’s Name],
I am writing to respectfully request a waiver of the penalty charges applied to my [specific account/credit card/loan] account. While I acknowledge that I have been behind on my payments, there were extenuating circumstances that contributed to this situation.
I have previously maintained a good payment record on this account, as evidenced by my past payments. However, due to [briefly explain the circumstances, e.g., a family emergency, unexpected financial hardship], I was unable to meet my payment obligations on time.
Despite my efforts to resume payments as soon as possible, I was unfortunately charged a penalty for late payment. I am concerned that these penalties will adversely affect my account balance and credit rating.
Given my history of timely payments and the exceptional nature of my recent difficulties, I kindly request that you consider waiving the penalties. I believe this action will help restore my account to good standing and enable me to continue meeting my financial commitments.
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
