The Chewiest, Berriest Candy Company
123 Candy Lane
Candytown, USA 12345

To Whom it May Concern:

I am writing to complain about my recent purchase. I purchased a box of your Strawberry Chews. Your company is called the Chewiest, Berriest Candy Company. You promise to have the chewiest and most berry-flavored candy around. However, when I opened the box and took a bite of the candy, it was neither chewy nor berry-flavored. Instead, my box was full of hard, lemon-flavored candies. As a customer, I was really hoping for a box of chewy Strawberry candy as the name Strawberry Chews suggests. I was very disappointed.

I would like to give you another chance to prove to me that you have the chewiest and most berry-flavored candy out there. Instead of asking for a refund, I am asking for you to send me a new box of Strawberry Chews. If you would like to throw in boxes of Raspberry Chews, Blueberry Chews, and Blackberry Chews, that would be great. I would also accept a box of Razzleberry Chews. Although, a Razzleberry is not a real type of berry.

Hopefully, you honor my request. This will help prove to me that you really do have the chewiest and most berry-flavored candy. I am enclosing the rest of the box of lemon-flavored candy I received to prove to you that my letter is honest. You do not have to send those back. I am not a fan of lemon candy. I am not sure why a company called the Chewiest, Berriest Candy Company would even make lemon candy. Last time I checked, lemon wasn’t a berry.

Thank you in advance for fulfilling my request.

Sincerely,

A customer who loves berries
