There are several reasons for this. In the first place, the cabinet is grey in colour rather than cream as I ordered. Secondly, the lock doesn’t work. Thirdly, there is a large dent on the top, which was probably caused during delivery. I must ask you to replace the filing cabinet with one which is the correct colour and in perfect condition. I would be grateful if you would telephone me on 06845 721399 as soon as possible in order to make the necessary arrangements. Yours faithfully, Hazel Smith HAZEL SMITH (Ms) Write your address (but not your name) on the separate lines in the top right-hand corner   Write the date below your address.     Use separate paragraphs to: - say why you are writing - give details or extra information - conclude your letter
