特別理賠信寫作范例(一)

　有些商家是秉承“售出概不退換”的原則的。如果偏偏在這樣的商家買的東西出了問題，該怎樣去爭取理賠呢?我們看看下面這位客戶是怎樣爭取讓商家給他換有毛病的絲巾的吧。

　Dear Manager

　While working in China for the past three years, I had always purchased gifts from the Friendship Gallery for my Canadian friends. The quality and value had always been more than I could reasonably expect, and I have often recommended you store to others.

　Last autumn, I was back in Canada, but I did not forget to mail-order some charismas gifts from your usual annual Fall Sales. After examining the gifts supplied to my order of November 2, I found that there was a distinct hole in the middle of one of the silk scarves. Although I remember that you apply a no-return policy to this kind of merchandise, I sent this silk scarf in a separate mailing yesterday so that you may see the damage for yourself. When you receive it I am sure that you will share my surprise and dismay.

　I understand from my past experience with the Friendship Gallery that this is an unusual situation. Will you kindly reconsider your no-return regulation with one of your loyal customers and replace the above mentioned silk scarf by mailing another one? I would be delighted to have it and present it to my friend for Christmas.

　Yours sincerely

　在信的開頭，客戶先是贊揚了商家的產品，并表示自己是他們的忠實客戶。這些話都有利于建立一個良好的對話情景。然后詳細解釋貨品的損害，以求得到讀者的同情和支持。最后，通過道義的力量力爭得到商家的賠償。

　Gentlemen

　Your Super Electric household appliances have always given me a pleasure in doing my housework. Recently, I was glad to notice the opening up of a new store of your Super Electric in Seattle and decided to make a purchase of a new dishwasher to ease my kitchen job.

　Three weeks ago I came to the store and talked to a salesman about my preference. I noticed the store policy of offering installation with the purchase. However, when I asked for the work on the machine I would buy from the store, I was told to wait for a week because the plumber, who has got a part-time job for this store, was unavailable right then. As I needed an immediate performance of my dishwasher, I convinced Mr. Robert, the manager of the store to have another plumber for the installation. Mr. Robert agreed only after I said that I would have to buy elsewhere unless he could have the machine installed.

　The dishwasher disappointed me when I used it the first time. My kitchen became flooded soon after the machine started working. I phoned both the plumber and Mr. Robert to determine the problem. The plumber said that there was something wrong with the hot water valve on the dishwasher and that the store was responsible for replacing the defective one. Mr. Robert said that the dishwasher was improperly installed and that the plumber was responsible for the poor performance. Neither showed any indication of correcting the problem. I talked to them many times, but failed to get any action done for my request. That is why I am writing to you, the Customers Service of the corporation.

　As it is known for its good quality of products and efficient service, I believe that Super Electric has always been doing the best in making your customers' every purchase a perfect one. Would you please look into the matter immediately? I require my newly bought dishwasher to have proper installation and operation. It would be very much appreciated if you could arrange for the store to perform the repair under the warranty or authorize me to have the repairs made.

　The best time to contact me is 4-6 pm during weekdays.

　Sincerely yours
