              My biggest customer has gone bust – owing me a
              lot of money – can I recover the debt ?
              If you are an unsecured creditor you may only recover a
              few pennies in the pound -usually nothing.  Here are
              some, precautions you can take:
              Follow clear credit control processes consistently.
              Check credit references before offering credit.
                                                                                                            Ends 31st Oct 2016
              Do not extend credit limits without good reason.
              Monitor customer accounts regularly.
              If a payment is overdue, discuss it with the customer and:
              suggest they take smaller more frequent deliveries;
              maybe restrict payment periods to, say, 20 days and
              extend to 30 days when you know they will pay; ask for
              confirmation that both the goods and invoice have been
              received to avoid the ‘sorry I lost the invoice’ scenario.
