Go Ahead - Complain!

If you’re a dissatisfied customer – it can be worth your while to write a letter of complaint...

If you’ve had a bad experience with customer service – let them know about it. Writing a letter of complaint can be a powerful strategy for getting what you deserve. Consider these tips:




• Take some time to cool down. A calm articulate letter will be taken much more seriously than an angry rant.

• Use a company letterhead if you can.

• Take the time to research who you should be writing to. Don’t assume it will get to the right person. Avoid using “To whom it may concern.”

• Maintain respect and give the person at fault or the company an opportunity to rectify things and keep your business.

• Don’t be afraid to suggest solutions – be specific and include copies of receipts if you’d like a refund or exchange.

Make sure to include all your contact information and keep a copy of the letter for your own records.
