Re: Non-payment of cheque issued to a party.

Dear Sir,

This is to inform you that I have issued an Account Payee cheque No.____________ dated ____________ for ____________ (Amount) to ____________ (Company Name) against the price of merchandise, the deal of which was settled with them. Unfortunately, the transaction with this party has been cancelled subsequently for certain obvious reason and accordingly I have not to pay anything to the party against the above cheque already issued by me. It is, therefore, requested to stop payment to the aforesaid party against the cheque when presented to your bank.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
(Your Name)
