Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to let you know that I have lost my black colour - Dell
laptop
, Model number ASD123. What makes the
laptop
unique is there is a cartoon character sticker of Goku on the top of my
laptop
. Sadly, I lost it on 25th Oct, 2024 when I was on my business trip in Alberta, Canada. I recently bought it from Best Buy on 1st Sept,2024 and insurance for one year was included in the price I paid for my
laptop
. My payment receipt number is 12253789. Let me explain where I have lost it. The
laptop
was with me when I went to Starbucks to have a coffee and complete my presentation for the meeting.
However
, when I went to the washroom I kept my
laptop
on the table but as soon as I came back the table was missing. After that, all the staff members
along with
me went on a mission to search for my
laptop
but all in vain. So, I would like to request either completely reimburse the price I have paid for my
laptop
or send the same
laptop
to my home address - 234 Winner Circle, N1N 2K0. I would appreciate your help. Thank you for your consideration Faithfully,
Swheta
