Dear AM

I sent the bills in the post as requested.

Yesterday, I received a cheque for £45 (cheque number XXXXX) which represents only one of the two contracts.

Can you please confirm I am still owed another £45 cheque?

Thanks as I look forward to your response.

Mr Wright

=============================================

Dear Wright

Thank you for your email.

I attempted to call you today at 12:00pm on XXXXXXX2 but there was no reply.

I am very sorry for all the trouble you are having regarding your redemption chequeback.
We do not have any record of receiving your 6th invoice (dated April 2008) for the mobile number XXXXXX2. In order to resolve this matter, please resend a copy of your invoice by recorded delivery to the address provided below so we may process your cheque:

Redemptions
PO BOX 356
Southampton
SO30 2PG

NB. The bill will not be returned.

Please remember that the Redemption process can take up to 60 days to be completed, as we do have a vast amount of cheques to process so we do request that you be patient, as contacting us prematurely can delay theprocess.

If you have already sent the invoice to us by recorded delivery, please can you provide the Proof Of Postage Reference Number and we will then be able to track your claim.

You can find more relevant information on the redemption process on our website

I'd be grateful, if someone takes this query out of your standard
scripted workflow to read and consider, so that the proper action to
resolve can be taken..Thanks.

Now my response to your last email:

I get my invoices for both mobile phones in one single mailing. I sent
that invoice (for both) to you already.

The proof is the fact that you have sent me a cheque for one of the phones (XXXXXX1).

Obviously, I cannot send it to you again as I no longer have it..Your policy of "NB. The bill will not be returned." made certain of that.

If you go back to the documents you processed in issuing a cheque for XXXXXXX1 I think you will find it also includes the bill for XXXXXX2.

I am still confident in CPW's ability to resolve  this query with me having to escalate to a formal complaint.

Yours patiently,
Mr Wright
