Dear Sir, In September 2003, I joined your Sports and Social club as a full-time student member. Since
then
I have paid the monthly membership fees by direct debit from my bank: Nationwide in Sanderson Avenue,
Kinghill
Correct your spelling
Kingshill
. I have thoroughly enjoyed my club membership as it has provided me with useful opportunities to meet up with other young people and to participate in a number of social activities. I have
also
been fortunate enough to play in some of the inter-club tennis tournaments and have taken advantage of the various classes available
such
as Yoga and T'ai chi.
However
, my studies are now coming to an end and as I will shortly be returning to my home country, possibly for good, I regret that I no longer wish to continue my membership. I would be grateful,
therefore
, if you could confirm in writing that the monthly fee will no longer be deducted from my bank account.
