in writing would be better registered letter
heading saying copy to solicitorxxx citizens advice and xxx newspaper in two weeks time
of course other recipients are optional but make a good bargaining tool ;)
make it formal but to the point don't waffle but tell them what you expect to be the outcome
give them a clue at what level you will be satisfied with the outcome
as in money back[outoff pocket expenses on top off finacial loss]

Thanks BA, I thought i would just set out the sort of ground rules first, before i hit them with the rest of the complaint.

Have i worded this correctly?
Do i sign an email as i would a letter ie; Yours faithfully or whatever??
 
Sorry pred - though you were quoting from another thread an wanted a link.

Tell us more and we'll bash out a draft for you to send. There's no rush as not much post will get through prior to the 27th now and they might be closed/on skeleton anyway
 
Thanks Cal, the fly in the ointment is they've threatened me with "Notice of Intention to Commence Legal Proceedings" i have 7days from the 12-12-12 so am now over there due date.
 
pred needs to think about getting out of bed in the morning and going to work to earn some money to pay his debts, and not to think about writing daft emails.

Pred has been starting work at 1100hrs Monday to Friday and finishing between the hrs of midnight and 0200hrs averaging 63hrs and paying the best part of £200 in taxes every week, if you check my post over the last 3-4 months you'll notice i have been absent during the week, there's only 24hrs in the day, if i leave work at 0200hrs and go home i got time to have a meal brush my teeth jump into bed and get 6hrs sleep if i'm lucky, then fall out of bed, sh1t, shower and shave have my breakfast and back in for 1100hrs, thats 9hrs between shifts, you should try it sometime chapeau!!

I am now off till the 2nd of January and in that time have some problems to resolve, this email being one of them and as i have stated, i am not the cleverest on the planet at this sort of thing hence looking for a bit of advice, thank you!!

Ref: HIPS carried out on xxxxxx, Long Ashton, Bristol,

Dear Sir/Madam
Thank you for you invoice and reminders.

The service carried out by your company was not what was required by me in spite of providing verbal instructions and as such I feel that the product was thus inappropriately sold.

I therefore wish to lodge a formal complaint against the sales representative and am withholding payment in light of this.

Yours sincerely,

etc etc etc


(Don't mention the word "until" in you statement since it indicates that you intend to pay once the rep has had his wrist slapped)

Anyway - it's a starting point
 
...................

, thats 9hrs between shifts, you should try it sometime chapeau!!

Oh dear, that's funny. How funny is that, that is SOOOOOOOOOOO funny.

pred says "I should try it sometime". 9 hours between shifts !!!!

Oh my.

I'm cracking up here pred.

You have NO idea what I've done, NO idea whatsoever.

9 hours between shifts. Luxury, sheer luxury.

People would DIE if we took 9 hour breaks between shifts when I were a lad.

You are SOOOOOOO funny.

Now run along and pay your debts.
