Dull agent demanding payment (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dun

This clue is a double definition.

'dull' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'agent demanding payment' is the second definition.
(archaic term for a debt collector)

(Other definitions for dun that I've seen before include "Greyish brown colour" , "Dull brownish-grey colour" , "Dull greyish-brown colour" , "Brownish gray" , "Brownish grey horse" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
