8) You recently had some items shipped to you from overseas. Upon receiving the shipment you found that some things were damaged in transit. Write a letter to the manager of the shipping company. In your letter - Provide the details of your shipment - Describe the damage - Say what action you want the company to take.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing
this
to express my dissatisfaction with the shipping service provided by your company. I ordered the phone from Australia and it was delivered by your courier service with the tracking number 12234. The shipment was delivered to me on 24th January.
Unfortunately, upon receiving the parcel, I found out that the screen of the mobile is completely damaged and is not in working condition. Additionally
, the body of the phone has multiple dents on it as proper care was not taken during the transit. The parcel was wrapped with very less padding material.
Therefore
, I request you to refund me the amount equates to the mobile or get me a new one because I believe I should not bear the loss of your mistakes and it has to be before 15th March. Additionally
, I expect the item to be more wrapped with padding material to prevent any unwanted damages during transit.
I hope we can resolve this
promptly.
Yours faithfully,
