Dear Mr Smith,
I hope
this
email finds you well. My name is Federica Speciale and I am a regular passenger on bus 347 which stops in Beechbooro. I'm writing this
letter to express my concerns about the reliability of the service in the recent past.
As I mentioned above, I am a regular passenger of bus 347, I take it every morning at 6.45 am to go to work however
this
has rarely been on time in the past few weeks.
I am sure you can understand my frustration as long as these constant delays result in myself
Correct pronoun usage
me
beeing
late for work.
Correct your spelling
being
This
wouldn't be a big issue if there was a bus prior to the one I usually take, for
this
reason, if I suggest a possible solution it would be to add more early rides to allow people like me to be on time at their own jobs.
In conclusion, I would like to thank you for the time you dedicated me reading my email
waiting to hear from you about a possible solution.
Yours sincerely,
Federica Speciale.Submitted by ste.deblasi.97 on
