How to approach it

- Use email structure. Greeting, purpose, details, polite close.
- Cover every point. Address each bullet the prompt asks for.
- Keep it concise. Clear and complete beats long and rambling.
Model Answer
Dear Customer service, I am writing this to express my dissatisfaction with my recent purchase of online groceries order. Several items delivered were different from those I had ordered. More important, some of the substituted products contain ingredients to which I am allergic. This mistake has caused significant inconvenience and raised concerns about my safety, I kindly request that the incorrect items be replaced with the correct ones as soon as possible and that I receive a refund for unsuitable items. I would appreciate steps to be taken to prevent such errors in future orders. Thank You Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
