Re: Repayment of a Loan
Make demand for repayment stipulating a reasonable time for repayment (say 14 days). If the loan is not repaid you should either take action in the Victorian equivalent of the Minor Debts Court (generally a self help forum) or seek assistance from a solicitor to recover the debt - the latter course may not be cost effective.
