Ever tried to solve a problem through an online customer-service form? Sofia, a Brazilian exchange student in Manchester, paid for snacks at a convenience store using a self-checkout. Later, she noticed two identical charges on her bank app for the same purchase. The store website offers a short form called “Payment Issue,” and it warns: “Messages may be shared with staff and must be respectful.” Sofia wants the message to sound appropriate for a formal complaint: clear, polite, and focused on facts (what happened and what she needs).
