SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’ve been a member of Leisure World for a year and recently I’ve noticed a deterioration in the general standards of hygiene in the changing rooms. I have complained about this several times, but there has been no discernible improvement.
I first noticed the problem about a month ago. When I arrived early one morning, it was obvious that the changing area had not been cleaned overnight and there seemed to be a lot of slippery mud on the floor where people had been walking around with wet shoes on. Furthermore there were quite a few empty shampoo bottles and discarded soap sachets littered around. It made the place look very untidy and unhygienic.
I mentioned this to the lady at reception who assured me that something would be done immediately. Furthermore, I had a quick chat with the cleaner who told me that you are very short-staffed at the moment.
I would be very grateful if you could let me know what is being done about the problem. I feel that there is an urgent need to hire additional staff to ensure that the changing area is clean and safe for us to use, otherwise I will be forced to cancel my membership and go elsewhere.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Regards
