Mobility Cars

To whom it may concern, I write to you today on behalf of several of my nearby neighbours and myself. Recently we have seen senior citizens on mobility cars travelling speedily through our streets. Often we see adults and children stepping out into the road to avoid being hit down by these mobility cars, they [...]

Stale fish

Dear Sir/Madam, I bought a ‘fresh’ trout from Sainsbury’s fish counter in Lewes Road on the Sunday 16th January. When I opened it later that day, I realised it was covered in slime and clearly, dangerously, stale. The use by date on the pack was the 17th of January. I took it back to the [...]

Herbal Horror

Dear Herbal Essences, I feel I must write to complain about your new shampoo and conditioner bottles. While the new design is fresh, new and original in essence (ha, ha) the questions and answers on the back of the bottle continue to frustrate me. I shall take the opportunity to remind you that not everywhere [...]

Argos Mower Complaint

I purchased Mower and Grass Trimmer Pack, which was on offer and when I took it home it seemed to be used and didn’t assembly properly due to the handle issue. Therefore I took it back to the Erith Argos Store and got it exchanged, Manager Steven from the store bought the box out and [...]

Shopping Mall Complaint

Dear Shopping Mall Manager, Something that I find quite disgusting is happening in your Shopping Mall. Things that should be done in private are being done in public. I’m not talking about public displays of affection, drunks falling down and vomiting all over the place or even men urinating on public buildings, no, it’s the [...]

Primani

Primani…. a place where women revert to their primeval instincts. In Primark anything goes, it’s like another world, a modern day journey to the heart of darkness. You walk through the doors in a good mood; it’s a sunny day and you’ve been shopping. But once you get through those doors everything changes. It’s an [...]

Tesco Store Layout

Dear Sir or Madam Ref: Tesco Store Layout As supermarkets are the cheapest way to shop and yours is the closest to where I live, I do my main shop with you every Wednesday. Being of a short build, five foot in fact, it would seem I am not the only one who struggles to [...]

Sainsbury’s Chaddesden Complaint

There were three letters in total. The below is the first which gives you an explanation as to what I was complaining about, the second was much the same because I received a stock answer and the third was my juvenile way of responding to a second stock answer… 29th January 2010 Dear Sirs, I [...]

There’s no place like Harrods

Dear Sir, I am delighted that Harrods is celebrating the 70th Year since The Wizard of Oz was first released. I have loved the movie since I was a very young girl, losing myself in the magic and fantasy of this story. I believe that the staff in your Department Store has created a wonderful [...]

Halfords Bikes

Dear Mr Halfords, I hope that you are thoroughly ashamed of what you have done. As a result of what you did, I regret to inform you that i will, in fact, be suing you. A couple of months ago, i came and i bought a bikr at halford’s. It was a purple bike, a [...]

My Nuts!

Dear Mr Sainsbury (Or Mrs although I doubt it as she would have ensured your nuts were sparkling prior to going on display) I am writing to you regarding an experience I was unfortunate enough to endure today. Not an elderly gentleman bent over the tomatoes fingering them with his quite frankly filthy paws although [...]

Aldi Complaint

I live in Bathgate, Scotland and have just heard of people being fined for parking in Aldi’s car park in Bathagte. Amongst others, I heard of one woman (a retired lady) who did her shopping at Aldi’s – when she arrived home she realised she had forgot to buy an item, so returned to purchase [...]

Shoezone Complaint

This is a letter of complaint that I sent to Shoezone In June 2007 To whom it may concern I feel I should bring to your attention the appalling behaviour I witnessed by your staff in your Maidstone branch. After waiting an eternity to be served because the two staff at the counter were busy [...]

Another Sainsbury Complaint

Yesterday I discovered two foreign bodies in a cherry scone purchased from Sainsbury’s Archer Road, Sheffield. I think these are pieces of what seem to be cartridge paper – rolled up. I thought at first they were pieces of animal skin, I took one of the pieces to Sainsbury’s Dronfield which they kept, along with [...]

McVitties Mini Cheddars

This was a letter I sent to McVitties a few years back after finding a staple in one of my mini cheddars, I know writing this will probably bring back the nightmares but I’m trying to be brave Dear Sir/Madam, I have always been very fond of the McVities range of high quality and delicious [...]

10 Items or Less!!

Dear Sir/Madam, It is with some regret that I am writing this letter as I have, until recently, quite enjoyed shopping in your establishment. However, on my last 3 visits I have had my patience pushed to the limit. The reason for this is your checkout with the sign ‘ 10 items or less’. The [...]

Asda and your four chickens

To whom it may concern, I would like you to know that I have always been a very loyal customer of your store, visting my local Asda on a regular basis, but no more. My family and I recently purchased a pack of 4 chicken legs from Asda, little knowing the harm they would cause. [...]

Adsa Bournemouth

Write your letter here… (don’t forget to delete this text) I recently decided to discontinue shopping at Adsa Bournemouth. The service is simply apalling. It seems that which ever time I choose to shop at least half of the tills are closed. The queues are very long and many of the cashiers seem to enjoy [...]
