Is there difference between "Yours faithfully, ..." and "Yours sincerely, ..."?
I've found information that the first one is used if the author doesn't know the name of the addressee, and the second one if the author knows. Is it right?

Question

Answer

Yes.  You must use "Yours faithfully" if you do not know the name of the person you are addressing (for example you have used Sir/Madam as the addressee).  You must use "yours sincerely" when you do know their name (eg.  Mrs Smith, Kayleigh...)  :)
