I've been doing it that same way for years even with the dial-up. If not paid by the due date, off it goes. It's amazing how fast they come into the office when the service isn't on.

Re: [WISPA] Collections
Small claims works great for LLC and partnership type companies as long the cost is less then $2000. In the past we have done so with great success the hardest part can be to figure out the address to have the Sheriff or Police serv them the court papers. But once served and they don't show up it's a slam dunk win. We also had no problem winning a reasonable fee for court filing and time to do it.
