When we write a formal letter of complaint about a problem (e.g. something we have bought, the services in a restaurant or hotel, etc), we divide it into three parts:
• in the introduction, we state the reason for writing, (i.e. say what I who we are complaining about and why).
• in the main body,* we state our complaints and give examples and/or reasons to support them. We use a separate paragraph for each topic.
• in the conclusion, we state what action we expect to be taken.
*The main body can consist of one or more paragraphs, depending on the number of specific complaints we have.
The tone of our letter must be polite and we should never be rude.
Dear Sir/Madam,
Introduction
Paragraph 1 reason for writing
Main Body
Paragraphs 2 - 4 complaints (with examples
and/or reasons)
Conclusion
Paragraph 5 action to be taken
Yours faithfully
(your full name)
