Dear Mr. Tom,
I am writing to express my satisfaction with my memorable stay at your accommodation. I
also
noticed my payment was debited twice, so I would appreciate it if the second payment was refunded.
The room exceeded my expectations for such
an affordable bed and breakfast, Moreover
, I really enjoyed the banana bread served during breakfast with a nice cup of orange juice, would visit again in the future.
Unfortunately, I just noticed my bill was debited twice, both on my credit, as well as
my debit card. It happened that, I first paid with my credit account but the payment didn’t drop until the last
day of my stay, so I paid again with my debit card.
So verify this
with your bank and process the refund. Try using wire transfer since it is faster. My bank details are from Canada Bank, my account number is 777777777 and the account name is Eby

. You can reach me on 333333333 in case of further
clarification.
Thank you for your hospitality.
Yours Sincerely,
