Throughout her career, Thea Dudley, PROSALES columnist and credit expert, has heard many spectacular (ie: bad) reasons as to why customers haven’t paid off their accounts. From customers saying, “My [fill-in-the-blank] died,” to telling suppliers that “[they] pay [their] bills alphabetically and ran of money before [they] got to the U’s,” there is never a shortage of excuses.

Thea will then choose the most laughable, worst responses received and share them in an article in mid-December.
