Getting information

Write a letter [Your name] [Your address] [ and/or phone] Dear Manager Re: BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM—REASON FOR WRITING Tell the business that you have a problem with goods or services that were bought from them and that you are writing to seek a remedy. Explain the problem, but just focus on the key details. You should also mention when and where you made the purchase and when you discovered the problem. Next, outline the steps you may have already taken to get the problem fixed, such as a telephone call or a visit to the store. Note who you spoke to and the results, if any, of your efforts. Then describe what you would like the business to do about the problem—a refund, a replacement or a similar product to the same value from a different manufacturer. Be sure to enclose copies of any relevant documentation such as receipts or proof of purchase. Finish your letter with a full list of possible contact addresses or phone numbers where you can be contacted, particularly during business hours, and reinforce that you expect to hear from the business within a reasonable timeframe. Yours sincerely Your name

Search for example [Your name] [Your address] [ and/or phone] [Date] Dear Manager RE: FAULTY TELEVISION CABINET I am unhappy with the quality of a television cabinet I bought at [insert store address] on [insert date] and I am writing to seek a remedy. The cabinet doors do not open and shut properly and the stain on the cabinet is uneven, with one half darker than the other. The cabinet was delivered on [insert date] and I noticed this problem as soon as I unpacked it from the box. I feel this is not of acceptable quality and does not match the sample cabinet I was shown in store. I would like you to replace it with one of the same quality and finish as the sample and arrange for return of the faulty cabinet at no cost. I have attached a photocopy of my receipt as proof of purchase. I would like to have this problem resolved quickly. If I do not hear from you by [insert date or within 10 days], I will consider lodging a formal complaint with [name of your local consumer protection agency]. I can be contacted on [work phone number] during working hours or after hours on [home/mobile phone number] to discuss this matter further. Yours sincerely, [Your name] Enclosed: Copy of the receipt for television cabinet
