Typically I always judged WILLINGNESS over ABILITY. Some of my largest customers were the slowest pay - they knew they could get away with it.... but I'd bend over backwards to work with someone that DID WHAT THEY SAID THEY'D DO.... i.e., if we worked out a payment arrangement and they stuck to their side of the agreement. That's the WILLINGNESS.
I think you have to assess whether this customer has ANY willingness to get caught up. Then take it from there.
