You travelled by a long-distance bus recently and your suitcase was damaged. Write a letter to the bus company. In your letter, inform the bus company of when and to where you travelled describe your suitcase and what happened to it explain why the company should pay for a new suitcase

Dear Sir, I am writing
this
letter to express my disappointment caused by your company.I am a regular commuter of your bus service "Sunshine Transportation".Unfortunately, my
suitcase
was damaged because of the carelessness of your staff and I would request you to investigate the issue so it doesn't happen to any other commuter. I travelled from Edinburgh to Park Avenue on 4th June.But after arriving at my final destination, I found out that my
suitcase
had got damaged. And it was not any kind of minor damage, that could be fixed or something, rather it was some major damage that didn’t only involve scratches all over its body, but
also
some broken wheels. Now, I am not really sure as to what had exactly happened, or who was exactly in charge of handling it, but I would really appreciate it if your company pays me for a new
suitcase
. After all,
this
suitcase
is not only beyond any repair but
also
because I think that negligence on the part of your company
also
played a huge role in damaging it. I would really appreciate it if I hear from you soon. Yours Faithfully, Soumithri
