GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
You saw an advertisement recently and bought the advertised product. Upon receiving the product you discovered that the information in the advertisement was incorrect. Write a letter to the person responsible for the advertisement and say:
– What is the product?
– What information in the advertisement is incorrect?
– What do you expect the person to do about it?
SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir,
I am writing this letter to complain about the wrong information provided in your advertisement because of which I bought a cell phone which does not have all the features that your advertisement claims to have.
Last week, I saw your store’s advertisement in the local newspaper about a cell phone which has a long battery life and 7.2 megapixel camera. I went to your electronics store and bought the cell phone. I especially asked your salesman whether the cell phone was the same one which was advertised in the paper and he replied in the affirmative. I realised very soon that the battery backup was very less and every few hours I had to recharge my cell phone. The camera was also 5 megapixel and not 7.2 as you had claimed in the advertisement.
I would like you to replace my cell phone with a different model which has all the claimed features or give me a total refund. I would also suggest you not to put up such misleading ads just to lure customers.
Hoping for a prompt action from you regarding this matter! If you need to contact me, please feel free to call me at 08696*****4.
Yours faithfully,
