Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to complain about the air conditioner of my car, which I took on rent from your company for two weeks. Unfortunately, it has stopped working.
I rented Mercedes Benz 8 days ago. My customer number is 1230. Actually, what happened -I was on my way from Jacksonville to Miami, although the atmosphere temperature was cooler, suddenly a sound came from the engine. At first, I thought that the engine belt is broken and I may not be able to drive the car further. However, when I felt no air coming from the air conditioner – I realized it has stopped working.
Naturally, when I got back home – I immediately contacted your customer care center and registered my complaint. They issued me a complaint number 234343 and said that they will send a technician at my house within 2 to 3 business days to get it repaired. Almost one week has passed since I called, but still it is not being repaired.
I am not at all satisfied with your customer service. In case, you can’t resolve my problem within 2 business days after the receipt of this letter, I want a complete refund of my rent which I paid in advance, that is $200.
Yours faithfully,
Hasnain Siraj
This is a good letter. It has the right structure, covers the task, paragraphs are connected together by linking words and the sentences are well-structured. The grammar needs some attention, especially the prepositions and the way you use tenses (see comments underlined in blue). Overall, looks like a Band 6.5 – 7 letter.
