　　[范文]

　　Dear Mrs Geddings,

　　I write regarding a training course on health and safety which I attended 27 November.

　　When I booked this course, I chose your company as it came highly recommended and the courses seemed to be of a high standard. I was promised an experienced trainer but unfortunately he was sick and the replacement was not as good as expected. Regarding the information packs these were only a pile of loose photocopies, which was not promised. The class was supposed to be about 8 people but in mine there were about 15. Finally, I should make it clear that the class started 1 hour late, and the lunch that was served, was cold.

　　I am sure you can understand my disappointment. I would therefore be glad if you could investigate this matter.

　　I look forward to hearing from you.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Lisa Kostevska

　　Dear Sir or Madam

　　5 years to be exact.

　　PLASTIC TABLEWARE-Product nos. 0821 (forks) and 7234 (bowls)

　　We have used your company as a supplier to our restaurants for several years, and until recently the quality of your products has always been good.

　　However, on 2 September this year, we took delivery of some plastic tableware which was of extremely poor quality. Many of the bowls were chipped and several of the forks were broken. We cannot use them in our cafeterias.

　　We will replace them free of charge.

　　I do hope that such a delivery will not be repeated, and that your supplies to us in the future will again be of high quality. If, however, we receive any further faulty plastic tableware from you, we will be obliged to find another supplier to provide us with goods which meet our own high standards I am sure you will be able to provide us with a satisfactory explanation.

　　So do I! It was the faulty packing machine

　　( now repaired. )

　　Tell her it won’t happen again – she’s an excellent Customer, so please offer our apologies.

　　Yours faithfully,

　　Ann Jereme

　　Restaurants Director
