HANDLING COMPLAINTS
Complaints
Complaints are common, both in everyday situations and in the business world. In making a complaint you have to present the facts concisely, state your complaint unemotionally, and suggest a solution.
While many complaints can be made in person, some circumstances require formal business letters.
Tourists often complain about services that are not up to the usual standards. The essential rule in writing a complaint letter is to maintain your diplomacy and poise.
Follow the tips:
Do not delay your complaint
Do not apologize, as it weakens your complaint
Do not be rude because your aim is not to offend but to get results
