    I sent this letter to my bank when they offered me something similar.

    Thank you for your letter received on the *********.

    I am writing to decline your offer of £***** as full and final settlement.

    I continue to be open to negotiation, however, I feel that 65% of the overall sum requested is not sufficient.

    Finally, any funds paid to me in this matter shall come directly to me via cheque or another method of your choosing and will not be paid via any third parties.


    Somethin similar for yourself may be appropriate.

    Hope that helps. :D
