Many years ago when I was sorting out the mess my father had go the family company into, I had to settle an outstanding with Customer & Excise as was...

They refused to accept payment by instalments, but each month Is sent them a cheque for a fraction of the debt, with a covering letter.

Each month I got a polite letter enclosing a receipt, detailing the amount still overdue & a statement that they didn't accept payment in instalments... each month the same for tow years!
