For each aspect of the task, provide detailed and relevant information. Your letter should address all three bulleted points thoroughly, ensuring that the bank is fully informed of the situation, the issues faced, and the specific actions you require of them.
coherence cohesion
Always start your letter with an appropriate greeting and close with a suitable sign-off, matching the level of formality to the recipient. You have done well with the closing in this letter.
task achievement
Maintain a consistent writing tone appropriate to the context of the letter. In a formal letter to a bank, remain polite and professional throughout, carefully explaining the situation without expressing frustration or blame.

Structure your letter

A letter needs to be written using a proper format, including the following:

  • A greeting (Dear sir/madam, Dear John, Dear Mr. Smith)
  • The main body (consisting of paragraphs for each part of the letter)
  • A closing (Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully, Best wishes, Kind regards, Love)

When writing a letter as part of the IELTS General Training Writing Task 1, it is important to include the bullet points presented to you in the question.

All three bullet points need to be presented. And remember that some bullet points contain more than one element. So, make sure to watch for ‘and’ and plurals.
