"Please give us an update on the payment status" vs "please update us the payment status"

"Please give us an update on the payment status" and "please update us on the payment status" are both unclear.

Last Updated: March 20, 2019

Please give us an update on the payment status

This is not correct. Don't use this phrase.

"Please give us an update on the payment status" is vague. To get the information you need, make a more specific request.

"Please let us know when payment will be made" is a polite way to say "tell us when we'll receive a payment."

"Please let us know when payment has been made" is a polite way to say "let us know when you have made a payment."
