    I feel very sorry for the staff member who had to deal with this...Obviously beat them into submission.

    I cannot believe you remembered my username after all this time. Why send me a PM if you didn't want me to post on your thread? :rotfl:

    Congratulations on getting a result.

    Remembering your user name was easy I just looked back and found the worst reviews of my epic novel. The PM was an acknowledgment of my poor grammar which i agree that it could be improved, but that was not the issue...I did not write to British Gas to improve my spelling I wrote with a complaint. This was not the first and this had been going on for over a year, so i didn't give a damn how it was presented...
    I understood the yawn factor and being told it was to long winded and the facts within were not straight forward, but I couldn't understand your obsession with my puctuation and spelling.
    I have a result at last and that is a weight of my shoulder's and now that issue is out of the way, I do thank you for pointing out how it should have been laid out and presented and I will keep this in mind for any future notes I might write....
    A genuine Thanks
    Cheers fnc6810

    I have a result from a letter that was scrutinized by a money saving expert who said no one would read because it was to long, bad spelling and grammar. Well I have my gas and electricity re-calculated back to Nov 2008 at the proper rate, I have my D/D discounts from Nov 2008, I have all Decreases in prices back to Feb 2009 and also a little something to say sorry for the inconvenience caused. I fink i'll by a dicshunry wiv that....And remember forum etiquette....Pls be nice to all MoneySavers. There's no such thing as a stupid question, and even if you disagree courtesy helps.
    thanks Firefox....
    Cheers

    But you could have probably got the same by writing a letter that was only a few paragraphs long.

    "Could have" - "possible" - "Should have" - "if I" - In My spare time I play the Drums and I can make a song sound Just as good using a different beat, adding different fills and sometimes overfill, so endless possibilities - But in the end the result I wanted

    So Endeth the Thread

    I'll be totally honest, and tell the OP I couldn't be bothered to read even 10% of the letter. But well done you for composing that letter, and getting a result! :j:beer:
