 letter finds you well. I am writing to outline the complaints that have been made about the reception area, as well as to suggest several improvements to be implemented. Many visitors expressed their dissatisfaction with our company’s reception area. Since it is not spacious and overcrowded, there are not enough tables to fill in the various papers and chairs to be seated while waiting to be called.

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
