Dear Service Team, I an writing this to inform you formally about order which I received today, which contained several incorrect items. Some of the products delivered do not belong to me, while others were items I did not ordered. Unfortunately, a few of these items are ones I am allergic to, which makes this mistake quite serious. Last Friday, I ordered groceries online in the morning 9 am. During the process, application froze multiple times, and after several attempts, my payment went through However, I was charged twice for the same order. I kindly request a full refund and take immediate preventive action that this issues will not happen again in near future orders. Sincerely, [Your Name]

Dear Sir/Ma'am, I am a frequent buyer of groceries from Grofers App. But last week, on 20 March 2026, I had ordered few items using the app under order no. 223410, in which several items were wrongly delivered. I am allergic to mushrooms and peanuts. They were delivered to me instead of carrots and olives. This has been a very strange experience for me. I feel such instances, if repeated can ruin the brand name and lead to unnecessary litigations as well. Therefore, I demand refund for all the items wrongfully delivered and an written apology from your team. Looking forward to hear from you. Yours Sincerely, [Your Name]

Dear sir, I am writing this email my disappointment regarding weekly groceries I purchased last week. I have ordered only few items egg, wheat, bread and veggies, but surprisingly i have got wrong items even diary products which I am allergic to. The main issue is that getting wrong products costs me lot, more than that I have planned to spend. Moreover your attention should be directed towards the invoice generation as the order places. So, kindly refund the money that I paid as soon as possible to avoid further confusion. Faithfully, [Your Name]
