Dear Lavanya,
I am sorry I haven’t written for so long. After the holidays, the work pressure was so high that I never had a minute to myself. I am writing to thank you for the fantastic holiday that you made possible.

It was a long time since we stayed together and living at your house was a perfect retreat to our old times. Going to the same places we went when we were young and meeting those people was simply fantastic. I am still missing the 2 o clock ice cream and the long walks near the beach, outside your house. There was so much that you did to make this holiday memorable and I appreciate every bit of it. Memories of the taylor swift concert that we went and the open fire campaign keep coming back in my mind and make me smile.

And I must tell you, your house is simply beautiful and you have kept it in a way that makes it more amazing to live in. I really loved your bedroom and the drawing room, especially because of the lovely candles and the perfect photos you have hung there. I think words will be less to describe how amazing the trip was and how much I am missing those times.

I have recieved the photos few days back and I am sending them along with this letter. I hope you will love them.

With love,
Anmol.

Issues In Online Delivery # Letter For IELTS

You should spend 20 minutes on this task.
You recently ordered a phone online and had issues in online delivery. When the order came it was not complete.
Write a letter to the company. In your letter –
– explain what you ordered and what were the things missing.
– explain the importance of this delivery.
– ask for a replacement.
Write at least 150 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the delivery services of your company. The reason of this belief is the issues faced by me with the last order that I made.

20 days back, I ordered a phone on your online site, during the mega sale of electronics. It was a HTC 626 g+ desire worth Rs. 130000 and the transaction was completed successfully using debit card. Three days ago, the order arrived and when I opened it, there was no phone in it. It had a box with charger, head phones and other documents. To add insult to my injury, when I asked the courier boy to take the order back, he said, it was not his responsibility and I need to contact you.

Ten days later, I need to go to Australia for an assignment and require the phone immediately. The ideal solution would be that you replace the order and send me the same phone as soon as possible. If that is not possible, inform me of your inability to deliver the phone before 10 days.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,
Anmol.
