Ielts General Training Writing Letters 
Dear Sir,
It was a great shock to receive a letter from your bank stating that there was an overdraft of $240 in my account, and I would have to pay $70. I feel, there has been some communication gap, as this discrepancy is surely a case of gross negligence on account of your employees.

When I checked the statement of my account, I realized that the bank had transferred $240 to my insurance premium even though I had issued standing instructions about not transferring premium to the insurance company, as I had discontinued the policy.

However, I realize that your staff chose to ignore my instructions and issue a transfer off amount. This has caused me immense stress and inconvenience: I have been levied not only an extra charge on the over drawing but also the transaction fee. This is quite unwarranted, and I think the bank should take a stern action against such erring people.

I anticipate a quick response from your end and reversal of my money and charges wrongfully levied.   

Thank you

Yours Sincerely,


Adolf Hitler.

Ielts General Training Semi Formal Letter Letter to Insurance Company


Your car insurance company has told you that they are going to increase the amount you have to pay in insurance for your car each month. You are not happy about this.
Write a letter to your insurance company. In your letter explain
  • Why you are writing to them
  • Why you think the insurance should not be increased
  • What you want them to do
Your car insurance company has told you that they are going to increase the amount you have to pay
Ielts Letter Car Insurance 

Dear Sir,
I am writing to express my displeasure over the raise in the insurance premium that I must pay every month to enjoy insurance coverage for my car. It is indeed shocking for a regular customer who has always opted for your company.

I have been maintaining relations with your company since last eight years, for the three cars  I have possessed in these years. If you refer to your records, you would realize the fact that during this period, I have never been a claimant, on account of being a careful and responsible driver. This aspect, in my view really deserves to be duly appreciated, and the raise in premium is the last thing that a regular client with no claims record, would expect.  

I have been approached by various companies for transferring my insurance to their company; however, I would still be interested in continuing with your organization provided you can give a satisfactory reason for the hike.

I hope you would resolve and respond at the earliest.

Thanking you
Yours Sincerely

Ielts General Training Letters Parking Problems in Office 
Dear Sir,
I am writing to request you to kindly look into a pressing problem, that is not only affecting efficiency of organization but also the business: the lack of parking space in our office premises.

Of late everybody has been finding it hard to cope with the lack of  appropriate parking slots in the allocated space leased by our company. This issue has recently surfaced due to closure of authorized municipal parking area for renovation, which is bound to take not less than a year.  

This has forced workers to look for alternative arrangements, but the nearest parking available is a mile away from our premises, which is making it hard for workers: they must walk two miles every day. Even our clients have been complaining about finding it hard approach us, which is affecting our business.

There is some extra space available for parking in our building, and everybody feels that we could actually have that place.

I hope that you would look into this request with compassion.

Thanking you

Yours Sincerely

Dear Mr. Trump,
First of all, I must compliment you for the excellent services provided by your to me during my stay from 25th August  - 5th of September. I stayed in room number 1015, and was at home with everything, but while checking out, I forgot to collect some important papers that were enclosed in a black colored leathered folio.

These  include some important papers, my ID Card and some reports, that are of great importance to me. I would be thankful to you if you could tell your staff to search the cupboard by the bed in that room.

If you are able to locate the said folio, please arrange for delivering the letter it to me through courier – preferably through DHL as I have an yearly contract with  them, and they have agreed to collect the freight at destination.

In case, you need to get some more information, you could contact me on my phone number or send me an email. 

I hope you would help me with this.

Thanking you in advance

Your Sincerely

Ielts GT Letter School Foreign Trip 
Dear Sir,

I, Brandon Fraser, father of Martha Fraser, student of Class VI-B, would love to accompany kids on trip to Paris, that your school is organizing next month. I am pretty sure that I, with my good knowledge of Paris and its surroundings could prove to be of a great help.

I have lived in the French Capital for almost 10 years, and have developed a good acquaintance with the city and the surroundings: the attractions, the locales the distances and the best way to reach these locations. Moreover, I being a member of civil society of   Parisians could prove to be beneficial as it make it easier for the troupe of students and teachers to gain entry, on priority, into certain galleries and museums.

I could arrange everything ahead of the scheduled trip, if only, I could get to know how many people would be travelling to Paris and also about the scheduled itinerary.

I thank you for the opportunity and  request you to kindly help me with the required information.

Thank You,

Your Sincerely

Brandon Fraser

Ielts General Training Formal Letters City council is planning to pull down one of the historic buildings in your town, because they do not have funds to renovate it


City council is planning to pull down one of the historic buildings in your town, because they do not have funds to renovate it. As a citizen, you don’t want it to happen. Write a letter to the city council and say

– What is the importance of the building?
– Why should it be renovated?
– Suggest a plan to raise funds and maintain the building in the future.
 
Ielts General Training Formal Letters 
Dear Sir,
I am writing to express my disbelief and shock at the decision of the city council to tear down century old Art Gallery – which has been the most beautiful land mark of Delhi, with a great nostalgic value since its construction in 1901 – due to dearth of funds to refurbish it.

Most of my like-minded citizens have expressed their concern and regret: they too want that some solution be found out to save this site – that has been always regarded as pride of our city – from being razed to the ground, and that is thronged by a number of tourists throughout the year.

Demolition of this gallery would rob the young generation of an opportunity to take a look into the rich past of our society.

People are prepared to associate with the council and work for the collection of money – by organizing collection drives and evens to raise awareness – that could surely help refurbish this glorious structure.

I hope you would look into this matter with a great compassion.

Thanking you

Yours Sincerely,

Max

Ielts Letter - Party of an Old Uncle 
Dear Mr. Drinkwater,

First of all, I will like you to compliment you for the excellent services rendered by the staff of your hotel, especially Mr. Mohit Saini, banquet manager, who supervised the party hosted on 27th of March 2018, in the honor of my grandfather, Mr. Baron, who turned  90 that day.

Everyone, although was quite apprehensive about how the things would be managed, where the guests also included some aged above 75 and needed some attendants to help, sitting and selecting food from the buffet, it was quite a relief to see Mr. Saini efficiently perform all the required tasks by arranging attendants to help elderly guests reach the party hall; choosing appropriate seating and food; and reaching back to their cars after the party was over.

On the top of that, the food we were was not just a healthy selection but also was scrumptious and finger licking. On an overall, everything just sailed through smoothly.

I wish you all the best in all the endeavors.

Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely
Jack Hammond
