Coherence & Cohesion
Focus on clear paragraph structuring. Each paragraph should serve a distinct purpose: introducing the issue, detailing the problem, making a request, and concluding.
Coherence & Cohesion
Include greeting and closing elements more formally. The letter begins with 'Dear Sir or Madam,' which is appropriate, but the conclusion should mirror this level of formality ('Yours sincerely' or 'Yours faithfully' are better options than just 'Thanks').
Task Achievement
Ensure the task is fully addressed by explicitly following the instructions: describe the issue and your feelings, ask for an explanation for the delay, and request a quick solution or a new product.
Task Achievement
Use a more suitable tone for formal letters. Avoid overly casual language and expressions ('my feel very comfortable'). Formal, polite requests and expressions of disappointment or concern are more appropriate.
