Complaint letter: after buying a new computer You recently bought a piece of electronic equipment from a shop, but it didn´t work properly. The shop promised to repair it but having taken it back twice, it still does not work. You decide the only solution is either for the shop to replace the item or to get a refund. You decide to write to the manager of the shop. Write to the manager explainig the situation and what you would like to happen next. To whom it may concern: I am writing this letter to complaint about the unacceptable treatment that I have received from your customer service department. The last month I bought a new computer in your shop. The shop assistant asure me it was one of the best models and although the first days it worked properly, after a week, the computer shuted down and inexplicably I couldn´t switch on it again. To try to find a solution, I went to your shop and I let the equipment to one of your worker, who guaranteed me that He was going to fix it as soon as possible. Today, one month later, I have received a call to pick up the machine, however the computer is in the same state and It wasn´t repaired. After all these incidents, I consider that the best solution is that your company remplaces the ítem to another completely new to compensate the inconvenience. If it wasn´t posible because of the politics of your shop or if this model it´s not already available, I beg you that you refund me the full money. I hope that you take care of this mistake to prevent this situations in the future and I wish it would have been solved in a few days. Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter. Your faithfully; Sarah Jhonson

Complaint letter: after buying a new computer

One month ago I brought my computer to your shop to have it repaired. Today I received a call to pick it up. However, I was very disappointed to find the computer had not been repaired and was in exactly the same state as when I brought it in.
I think that the best solution would be for your company to replace the computer with a new one to compensate me for the inconvenience. If that isn't possible because of company policy or if this model is no longer available, I request that you refund the full amount.
I hope that you take the appropriate steps to prevent this situation happening again in the future and I ask that you resolve this problem as soon as possible, preferably in the next few days. 
Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter.
Your faithfully;

After all these incidents, I propose that the best solution would be for your company to replace the item for another brand new one to compensate for all the inconvenience. If this isn't possible due to your shop's policy or if this model is no longer available, I require you to issue me with a full refund.  

I hope that you will deal with this mistake to prevent this situation from happening again in the future, and I trust it will be solved within a few days.


Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.  <---- "Thanks" is too informal for this context. Use the full form "thank you" in formal writing. 

Yours faithfully,

I am writing this letter to complain about the poor level of service that I have received from your customer service department.

The Last month I bought a new computer from your shop. The shop assistant assured me it was one of the best models, and although it worked properly for the first few days, after a week, the computer shut down inexplicably and I couldn't switch on it again. To try to find a solution, I went back to your shop and I lent the equipment to one of your workers, who assured me that he was going to fix it as soon as possible. Today, one month later, I have finally received a call to pick up the machine. However, the computer is still in the same state as before and it obviously hasn't been repaired.
