Dear Sir,

 

I am writing to complain about a faulty computer I bought in your shop, and also about your inadequate after-sales service.

On Saturday 3 November I went into your shop to look at portable computers. I decided to buy a Dall 2862XP because your sales assistant Informed me, incorrectly, it would be reliable.

When I tried to operate my new computer at home it did not work. All that appears on the screen is a message saying: "Error reading: Hard disc". The instructions manual is totally unhelpful on this point.

I phoned your store to ask for assistance early this morning, and. again at intervals, throughput the day, but I only got a recorded message. I am leaving the country, at the end of this week so I do not have much time to sort out this problem.

I should be grateful if you could arrange either for a technician to come and put the fault right, or for a substitute computer to be delivered to me immediately.

Yours faithfully,

 
 

Emilio Random

 
 

Letter of complaint # 2: Poor service

Dear Mr Fred Bolton,

 

I really need your help with this. Your engineer Mr. Rolf Bohner called for the third time in the past ten days to repair our computer Dall 2862XP at the above address, and I am still without a working machine.

He was unable to carry out the repair once more because the spare part Hard Disk #CV328AB was again not compatible. (I attach copies of the service visit reports). Your engineers have been excellent as always, but without the correct parts they can't do the job required.

Can I ask that you look into this to ensure that the next service visit, arranged for next Friday, November 28, resolves the matter. Please telephone me to let me know how you'd like to deal with this.

I greatly appreciate your help.

Yours sincerely,

 
 

Emilio Random
