The problem

Why most complaints go nowhere

Most complaints are written while the writer is still angry. They are long, they mix the important facts with everything else that went wrong, and they end without saying what would actually put things right. The person reading has no clear action to take, so they send a polite reply and close the case.

An effective complaint letter does the reader's work for them. It states what happened in date order, attaches the proof, says exactly what you want, such as a refund, a repair, a replacement or an apology, and sets a reasonable date for a response.

It also creates a record. If the complaint has to go further, to an ombudsman, regulator or small claims court, a calm, dated letter showing you gave the other side a fair chance is worth far more than a string of angry emails.

Letters we write

Complaint letters we write

Companies and retailers

Faulty products, poor service, refused refunds and broken promises, written to the person or department with the authority to resolve them.

Landlords and property managers

Repairs not carried out, deposit disputes and problems with neighbours or building management, with the dates and history set out clearly.

Employers and HR

Formal grievance letters that set out the issue factually and professionally, so they are taken seriously and do not make the situation worse.

Banks, insurers and utilities

Billing errors, rejected claims and account problems, written to trigger the company's formal complaints process rather than another call queue.

Schools, councils and agencies

Complaints to public bodies, following their published complaints procedure so the letter cannot be set aside on a technicality.

Follow-up and escalation letters

When the first complaint was ignored or refused: a firmer letter that references the earlier one and states the next step you will take.

What you get

What goes into every letter

The same structure that makes a complaint hard to ignore.

  • The right recipient: a named person or the formal complaints address, not a general inbox
  • A one-paragraph summary of the problem at the top, so the reader knows what this is about immediately
  • The facts in date order, with order numbers, account numbers and reference details included
  • A list of the evidence you are enclosing: receipts, photos, emails or contracts
  • A specific remedy, stated plainly, and a reasonable deadline for a reply
  • A professional tone throughout: firm, factual and free of threats or insults
  • An editable copy you can send by email, post or the company's complaints form

How it works

How it works

1. Tell us what happened

Fill in a short form or send an email with the story in your own words, plus any receipts, emails or photos. It does not need to be organised.

2. We ask what is missing

A writer reads everything and asks about any dates, amounts or details the letter needs, along with what outcome you want.

3. Your draft

A finished letter, typically within two business days. Urgent deadlines can often be met sooner if you tell us when you order.

4. Revisions

Changes until you are happy to sign and send it. You can also order a follow-up letter later if the reply is not good enough.

Other letters

Professional letter writers for other letters too

The same writers handle most letters where the wording matters: appeal letters, formal requests, letters of explanation, apology letters, resignation letters and personal letters that are hard to get right.

For references and recommendations, see our recommendation letter writing service. For anything else, tell us what the letter needs to achieve and who will read it, and we will quote for it.

Important

When you need a lawyer instead

A complaint letter is not legal advice, and we are not a law firm. If you are close to a legal deadline, facing a significant financial loss, or the matter already involves a court, tribunal or solicitor, speak to a lawyer before sending anything.

We will tell you if your situation looks like one of those. For the large majority of complaints, though, a well-written letter is the right first step and often the only one needed.

Pricing

What it costs

Complaint letters start at $45. Longer letters, or cases with a lot of documents to work through, cost more, and you get a fixed price before anything starts.

A follow-up or escalation letter for the same complaint is quoted at a lower rate, because the background work is already done.

Questions

Questions about complaint letters

Still unsure about something? Talk to a specialist — no script, no sales pitch.

Yes. Send us what happened and any documents you have, and one of our letter writers will turn it into a clear, professional complaint addressed to the right person, ready for you to sign and send.

Typically two business days. If you are working to a deadline, such as the end of a return window or a reply date in a company's letter, tell us when you order and we will try to meet it.

Yes. The letter is written in your voice and signed by you. We do not contact the company on your behalf, which keeps you in control of the complaint.

What happened and when, the reference numbers, the evidence you have, the specific remedy you want, and a reasonable deadline for a reply. Every letter we write follows that structure.

No. We are professional writers, not lawyers. If your matter involves a legal deadline, a large sum or court proceedings, please speak to a lawyer. We will point it out if we think you should.

We can write a follow-up that refers to your first letter and states your next step, such as escalating to an ombudsman, regulator or consumer body. Having the first letter on record strengthens that.
