Complaint Letters

The purpose of a complaint letter is to bring your grievance to the notice of the concerned party so that corrective action can be taken wherever possible.  While writing a complaint letter, it is important to address it to the right department.  If the letter does not reach the right people then the purpose is defeated.  Similarly, you must include your contact details as well.

Complaint letters need not be strong worded and rude.  It is more effective to put forth your complaint in a firm yet polite tone.  It is also a good idea to suggest what kind of remedial action you would like the concerned party to take.

State your complaint in a simple and concise manner backing up your case with photocopies of receipts or other relevant documents.  Stick to the facts and avoid sweeping statements deriding everything in general.  Keep the letters to the point and short.

Tact can achieve what sarcasm and rudeness cannot.  So, try and include a couple of positive points as well along with your complaint.  This is sure to act as a balm to the bruised ego and your complaint would be taken in the right spirit.

Dear Mr. Scott,

I took my team members to your restaurant on 3rd November, hoping to celebrate a happy occasion.  But, the food proved to be so bad that our mood for celebration was completely spoilt.

Though we ordered some exclusive vegetarian dishes, they contained some form of meat or other and this, despite our explicit instructions to the hotel staff.  The other dishes we ordered were equally poorly made.

I hope a restaurant of your repute pays more attention to the culinary ability of the staff and improves on the fare.

As a regular customer of your restaurant for the past 2 years, I look forward to visiting it again soon and tasting better cuisine.

Complaint Letter on a Training Course

Dear Andrea:

My staff Kevin Evans attended your recent training and ended up very disappointed with the quality of the training course. According to him, the content did not match those you are saying in your advertisements. He said less than an hour was devoted to conflict resolution, while it was supposed to be one of the major topics that need to be discussed. According to Kevin, the facilitator seemed incompetent of the topic itself appearing incapable of answering questions from the attendees.

Given this, I think you owe us a refund since we were not satisfied on how the course was taught. We expected too much as you seemed very competent on your advertisements. The registration fee of $300 is apparently not worth it. It was simply a waste of time on our part. We send Kevin there to learn about the rudiments of handling staff, but ended up very disappointed on how everything was executed.

Poor Customer Service

August 19, 2010

Dear Smart Communications,

I recently subscribed to your mobile Internet service since you appeared to a good mobile Internet service provider. In addition, you also claimed that you offer the best customer service on your advertisements. However, I would like to claim that your customer service is poor, and I would like your company to act on this issue accordingly.

I called your customer care representative to inquire about the very slow connection I have been experiencing for a week. They customer care representative, instead of politely asking what is the problem on my connection, snapped at me instead. She did not explain the solution, and did not even politely ask on what I have been experiencing with your Internet service.

I hope that conduct is not tolerated in your company.

Regards,

Susan Green to;  mr??? ?? m-alt:auto; line-height:normal'>I would like to invite you and Randy on my upcoming send off next week (August 20, 2010) at Gerry’s Grill and Restaurant located at Anapolis St. I would like the both of you to be present in that special event as most of my close friends are coming over.  The party will start at around 8 p.m. and may end until dawn.

Meanwhile, as for your complaint about our slow mobile Internet service, we had unannounced system maintenance last week. By this time, your Internet connection should be back to its normal speed.

Emily Eastwood

Head Trainor

Great Image Training Group

Dear Ms. Eastwood:

This is to call your attention to your training course on “Professional Digital Photography” held last Auguts 10-17, 2010.  I attended the training to upgrade my skills in photography which I need in my job at a local magazine.

Your brochure and advertisements state that the training course includes 14 hours of lecture and 30 hours of hands-on experience.  At first, the training was going well.  The speakers were competent and we were guided during the practice sessions.  However, the speakers started arriving late and the sessions were cut short.  Thus, the training course objectives were not attained and I had not reached my own personal goal to learn new techniques.

Your advertisements boast of a money-back guarantee if dissatisfied and I would like to avail the refund.  I paid a registration fee of ?100, an amount that is definitely not worth the training I got.

Dear Mr. Miller:

This is to inform you that the modem I ordered from your company is defective. I purchased the item last week, and it was delivered to my office yesterday. I tried connecting to the Internet through the said modem, but to no avail. I have tried using it for several times, but my efforts seem futile.

I think the item you shipped is defective. I tried calling your customer care hotline, and told me to write a letter addressed to you so you can look on the matter. If you would not give a replacement modem within the week, I wish to just refund my money since I badly need a new modem as soon as possible.

You can call me at 390-876-2918 to discuss this issue.

News Article Complaint Letter

December 5, 2010

Ms. Letty Hill

Editor-in-chief

The Daily Tribune

Dear Ms. Letty:

This is in reference to a news article published in your paper last December 3, 2010 entitled “More private firms to ax employees.” I am one of the interviewees mentioned in the article. While I commend the reporter for having a balanced article, I have some issues on how my statements were phrased.

The article quoted me saying: “We are actually having problems in our operations given the economic crisis we are experiencing. We have no choice but to terminate some employees in the coming months. At least 50 employees will lose their jobs, I think.”

While that is the actual statement I said, I think the reporter forgot to mention the sentence following that statement. During the interview, I said the company is trying its very best to help the employees. I think it is important to mention the context of the said statement as well. I was asked on what-ifs and I actually stated a hypothetical statement on the termination of employees. The “at least 50 employees” that will be fired is not absolute, and was stated under the condition that the company would have bigger losses.

I felt I needed to write this comment to assure our employees that the company is doing everything to save them from unemployment. I hope I am making myself clear.

Thank you very much and more power.

Dear Mr. Baker,

I write to you with regard to the quality of the laptop which I purchased from your company at your branch in town.  I bought the laptop which was sold on sale last week.  Despite the item being sold at a lower price, your sales staff at the time, Mr. Joseph McDonald, assured me that the item is still fully functional and has no defects.  I was satisfied with my purchase at the time.

After only a week of use, however, the laptop battery is already starting to malfunction.  I have to keep the laptop connected to an electricity source and thus could not use the equipment outside my home or office.  Since the item has a one year warranty, please replace the laptop immediately.  I have attached the receipt and warranty card for your reference.

Funny Complaint Letter

From,

To,

The management,

WIZARD mall

Dear sir/madam,

This letter is to make you aware of some of the features which are very annoying for the patrons which you entertain. First of all, the staff of the clothing department should be changed for the reason that they have no dressing sense. It is very annoying to bear them in front of us while choosing the clothes. Moreover, they constantly make their presence apparent by pestering us with the features of anything and everything which patrons approach.

The next thing is associated with the trial rooms. The trial rooms are very small and pose a problem for over-sized people. Moreover, the trial rooms have only single mirror while most of the reputed malls have mirrors on all the walls of the trial rooms. The sanitation factor especially in the loo needs to be taken into account as well. All these things will make your mall a better choice for us.

Yours sincerely,

Draco jr.

First of all, the delivery was to be made on the day of order itself and it has been delayed by 2 days. One can bear the late delivery for once, if the product ordered is as per the desired quality.

The product which I have ordered was a juicer, going by the product number 544. The advertisement showcased many features of the juicer which are apparently not in presence in the product which has been delivered to me. The load power is almost half the advertised one. The accessories are missing. This is not expected from a reputed firm of yours. I am hoping that my complaint will not fall on deaf ears.

Much was told about the hotel and the facilities which would be given to us, while we were being wooed by you for the tour. The way you promised us, made us ensured that we were at a right destination for travelling needs. The promising features were forwarded to entire group, only to add to the embarrassment later on.

The goons from this college have become a nuisance for every passing girl. The incidents of eve teasing have been apparent for more than a week.

Besides this, the shops adjacent to the college are also fed up of the menace which the hoodlums from this college are causing. This letter is drafted as a written complaint against these college students. The negligence which the misbehavior from these people received initially has encouraged them to reach this level. I, Jane Willis, hereby, put this plea in front of the entire police department via this letter, to get rid of this behavior as soon as possible. We have full faith in the judiciary and the execution of the law from the police department.

Drafting Complain Letter

A Complaint Letter is a form of formal communication wherein the annoyance in the senders’ mind is required to be portrayed in such a way; that the recipient of the letter is urged to find an immediate solution to the grievance which has been put forward to him or her. There are some technical aspects of the Complaint letters which are needed to be considered while drafting such a letter.

The Complaint should be written as the subject of the letter so that the recipient is made aware of the reason for the letter being drafted, the moment the letter is opened. It is advisable that the subject should be bolded. Also, the Complaint Letter should be kept short and to-the-point. One should avoid usage of rude language, even if the Complaint is desperate; since it gives an impression of an unprofessional attitude of the person drafting the Complaint Letter.

Complaint Letter to The Head of The Society

From,

Mr Fudge,

D -12, Galaxy Housing Society,

Philadelphia

To,

Mr Hopkins,

C -5, Society Head,

Galaxy Housing Society,

Philadelphia

Dear Mr Hopkins,

This letter has come into effect to convey some serious matter for you to mull over. The thing is the gymnasium which has been opened on health grounds in D-8 room has been a pain for residents of the adjoining flats. The gymnasium has slowly metamorphosed into a hangout place. Loud music keeps troubling the residents of the neighbouring flats. I have talked in person to the owner of the gymnasium but all my efforts proved futile and my plea for etiquette has fallen to deaf ears.

Hence, it is for this reason that this complaint letter has surfaced. You, as the society head, have all the right to question the annoyance created by the gymnasium. We have right to live a peaceful life.  I hope that effective and necessary action would be taken against them. I am looking forward for you steps in this context with all hopes rested on you,

Yours sincerely,

Mr Fudge

Complaint Letter by Teacher to Parents

From,

Mrs Braganza,

Class Five teacher,

St Theresa School,

Denver

To,

Mr and Mrs Brown,

D -2, Privet Drive,

Denver

Dear Mr and Mrs Brown,

I have been forced to write this letter for the circumstances which have cropped up. Draco has been the concern for which this letter has to be drafted. Draco has been one of the brighter students of my class. However, the same cannot be said with his performance in the recent days in view. Draco has not been the same in his studies. The impeccable energy and zeal which he used to portray in front of the entire class is fading away. I, hereby, urge you to look into this matter very seriously.

There is absolutely no need to panic. Sometimes, students tend to get disoriented from their path and this is where our responsibility of putting them back into array comes to light. I am hopeful that needful steps would be taken by you in this context to make Draco deliver what he is capable of. Hoping for the better future,

Yours sincerely,

Mrs Braganza

Complaint to School Letter

From,

Mr Cornelius,

Head of the Sterling Housing society,

Philadelphia

To,

Principal,

New Model Art School,

Philadelphia

Dear sir/ madam,

I, Mr Cornelius, head for Sterling Housing society, am drafting this letter out of desperation and some disgust. As you would be aware, Sterling Housing society is adjacent to your school. However, this has not been a proud thing to boost of in the recent times. Students have been playing the spoil sport to disrupt the peace between us neighbours. The plants planted in row in front of our society compound have been completely wrecked by the students of your school. Not only this, the walls of the compound are full of absurd graffiti, which has been done by the students.

This I can say because I have witnessed this happening in front of my eyes. I tried to prevent this from happening but students proved my actions futile. I am hopeful that this letter shall serve its purpose and necessary action would be taken to avoid such things in future.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Cornelius

Complaint Against Poor Service Letter

From,

Ms Scarlet,

F -19,

Sterling apartments,

Bridgeton archway,

Houston

To,

Excellence Courier Service,

Wilson Boulevard,

Houston

Dear sir/ madam,

This letter has surfaced out of sheer disgust resulted by the delivery service of Excellence Courier Service. Couple of days back, I received a parcel which was destined to me by my cousin through your courier service. The parcel has been delivered at least a week late after having being promised to be delivered well in time. I can understand things can get disarrayed for some reason or the other. But, it is your responsibility to put in a reasonable excuse for the long delay in the delivery. But, nothing of this sort was done.

Moreover, the parcel has been delivered in complete mess. I wish that you draw some inspiration from the name of your service, Excellence Courier Service; and deliver what the name actually promises. I am expecting a reply from your side for the poor service which was rendered to me. Hoping for a reasonable and a quick reply,

Yours sincerely,

Ms Scarlet

Neighbour Complaint Letter

From,

Mr Jackson,

B-11, Wilson Drive,

Glasgow

To,

Mr Lawrence,

B-10,

Wilson Drive,

Glasgow

Dear Mr Lawrence,

I, Mr Jackson, your neighbour, am writing this letter to put forward my grievance. The grievance is regarding the party which you had yesterday. I understand completely that things sometime get hysterical. However, the after effects of the party which you had yesterday are entirely beyond the reach of my understanding. My lawn has been a wreck because of the disruption caused by the guests in your party. Not only my lawn, have all the plants planted at the rim of the lawn suffered gravely from the outrageous and irresponsible behaviour of your guests.

Besides this, we have been denied peace for the entire night. Considering the good relations that we have had in the past, I did not complaint to the concerned authorities. I am hopeful that you will look after the things for not turning this disastrous in future. Looking forward to a utopian phase in the neighbourhood,

Yours sincerely,

Mr Jackson

Harassment Complaint Letter

From,

Ms Veronica,

Blazing Dance Group

To,

Mr Finnegan,

Organiser,

Celestial Talent Show event

Dear Mr Finnegan,

It is very unfortunate that I have been required to write this letter to you. But, the circumstances appeal that strict actions are required to be taken pronto. The thing is that my group has been suffering the harassment from the other performers of the event. It has been entirely suffocating for us to perform in such an ambience. It would be better that the reasons of the harassment are discovered by you on your own.

This kind of treatment has never been met to us by anyone. And I am afraid that we have to pull out of the event if necessary actions are not taken in time. I may bear this to some extent; however, I would not tolerate mistreatment of my fellow performers. It has been extremely necessary for you to take charge of the situation and give us the ambience for the preparations which has been promised.

Yours honestly,

Ms Veronica

Product Complaint Letter

Mr Simpson,

D-4,

Bridgeton Lane,

New Orleans

To,

Mr Fraser,

Gem Electronics,

New Orleans

Dear Mr Fraser,

This letter has surfaced to fulfil the need to submit my grievance at your disposal. I am entirely disgusted that the vacuum cleaner which I bought from your shop has broken down after a couple of uses. It has been promised to me that it is the best quality vacuum cleaner; but the promise has not been delivered. Warranty has been provided on the vacuum cleaner, but even then such an early break down of the machine is not justifiable. The letter is enclosed with the warranty card which has been provided with the vacuum cleaner for the one year warranty period of the vacuum cleaner.

I am expecting that the repair of the vacuum cleaner would be done at the earliest and you shall be sending someone to get it fetched from my home. I am hopeful that this time around a gem of a service is rendered from Gem Electronics.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Simpson

Complaint letter to Higher Authorities

From,

Mr Jones,

General Manager,

The Mall,

Dubai

To,

Mrs Jessica,

Head of Quality Control department,

The Mall,

Dubai

Dear Mrs Jessica,

I, Mr Jones, general manager for The Mall, am writing this letter to forward some of the feedback which we have received for the upholstery products which The Mall provides. The feedback has not been encouraging at all. Most of the consumers are not satisfied for the quality of upholstery products which we are providing. There has been some problem somewhere which is needed to be investigated for these undesired results which have cropped up.

I assure you that utmost care is taken for handling and keeping of the products. I suggest that the area of concern is the making up of these products. I am hopeful that you would be taking the necessary steps for overcoming the undesired consequences for all the efforts which we put in. I would like to hear from you if anything can be done on my part in this context. Please, look after this urgently,

Yours sincerely,

Colleague Complaint Letter

From,

Mr Smith,

Junior sales manager,

The Mall,

Riyadh

To,

Ms Isabella,

Junior marketing manager,

The Mall,

Riyadh

Dear Ms Isabella,

This letter has come into effect for some serious concerns. The sales of the electronics products which The Mall offers have sunk by quarter levels in the last month. The quality of the electronics products has been reassessed, and everything else has been checked. The investigations among the consumers have resulted in the cropping up of the fact that these products are not marketed well and people are immune to the knowledge about these products.

This has lead to discovery of the fact that the marketing concentration for electronic products has dipped by nearly 20% and hence the drop in the sales of the products. I am hopeful that you will be looking into this matter for the uplifting of the sales of electronic products at The Mall. Proper and organised marketing is now required for getting things back on track. I hope that promotions for other products do not get hampered.

Yours honestly,

Mr Smith

Dated: 4th of February 2012

Subject: Complaint regarding transfer of less salary

Dear Mr. Moody,

This letter is in regards to my salary credited in the month of January. I have checked my salary slip and I believe that I have received less salary than what I am entitled to.

My monthly salary is $4000. But when I was checking out my salary account for the month of January I found that $1000 less has been credited in the account.  I contacted the HR executive of the company 2 days back regarding the same but have not yet got any reply.

I have never faced such situation before. This is not expected from the human resource department of such a reputed company.

I would request you to look into the matter and take action immediately.

Thanking you,

Subject: Complaint regarding noise made

Dear Mr. Ripper,

This letter is in regards to the noise coming from the neighborhood apartment due to ongoing construction. This noise is very disturbing and I would like it to be stopped immediately.

There has been a noise coming continuously since last one month from flat number 403. I believe that the noise is the result of the construction taking place at their apartment since last one month. The noise comes not only during the day time but also during the night time. As a result my family members and I feel disturbed. We have a senior citizen staying at our apartment who is not keeping well health wise.

I would be highly grateful if you take an action immediately and ensure that the noise is stopped.

Regards,

Norman Creed

Brooklyn City, Iowa 4987

Dated: 3rd of February 2012

Subject: Complaint against customer service

Dear Mr. Harris,

This letter is in regards to the telephonic conversation I had with one of your customer service executives on 2nd of February 2012. I am very disappointed with the quality of customer service received and would like to lodge a complaint.

I had called your company on 2nd of February 2012 to place an order for some medicines. The behavior of the customer service executive was a turn off. He sounded very rude on the call. He did not sound helpful at all and above that he had no knowledge about all the existing products. As a result I could not place my order. When I asked him to transfer the call to a supervisor he refused. This type of behavior is not at all acceptable.

I request you to look into the matter as soon as possible.

Jack Brown

This letter is a follow up to the complaint made at your departmental store on 10th of February 2012. I had made a complaint in regards to a purchase made by me on the same day.

I had purchased ten cans of baked beans from your store on 10th of February 2012. I had failed to check the expiry date at the time of purchase. On reaching home I found that five of the cans have expired. I lodged a complaint at the billing counter that day itself and the executive assured me to get back after talking to his seniors. It’s been 7 days and I have received no response from your store.

I would request you to take necessary action and refund me the amount or else I will have to go to the consumer court.
