Set The Expectations for an Invoice Dispute

You can set the tone for the call by setting up proper expectations. Don’t give in to their delay tactics. Offer to investigate their dispute but make it clear that you don’t tolerate disputes made after the payment due date. To research the dispute, tell them that their payment must be processed first. Then, if their dispute is valid, their payment can be credited back to them. Remind them that in the future, if they have a dispute, they must notify you before the payment due date.
