A Complaint Letter for Correction Hi there ! I kindly ask to correct the following letter. I am currently training my writing skills in English. A "story" for writing this letter is that a few days ago I bought a mobile phone in a tax -free shop and it does not work properly. Dear sir/madam, I am writing you this letter to complain about a mobile phone that I bought a few days ago in your shop. On October 10 at Heathrow airport I purchased the latest model of Galaxy mobile phone . My intention was to use it abroad in order to keep in touch with my business colleagues here in the UK. I was assured by a sale representative that this model would work also in the USA where I was flying to. In addition to that it had a 3 year international warranty and a long list of the most modern features. Upon arrival to the US I followed the instruction written in the technical documentation that was provided along with the phone. To my greatest disappointment I couldn't connect to none of the American mobile phone operators. The phone got stuck with a message "Couldn't establish connection". Because of my disability to be in constant connection with my company, my business trip was not as successful as it could have been. I was even more disappointed when I returned to the UK and again had the similar problem with the phone. This time all the smart phone applications was not working properly so I even couldn't receive or send SMS. I have tried to talk with the service center that is ran by you shop but I was not given any assistance there. I firmly insist on either exchanging the misfunctional phone to a new one or fully refunding me with the cost of the phone. Faithfully yours, Jack Eighter.

A Personal Letter for Correction Hi there ! I am requested to write a personal letter to practice my writing skills. The topic of the letter is : I stayed at my friend's house and forgot there a file with important documents. I am asking my friend to return this file by post. Dear Lynn, I'm writing you this letter asking you for a favor you can kindly do for me. As you probably remember I visited your hospitable house about 3 days ago when I participated in a business seminar in your city. Unfortunately, when I was wrapping up my belongings for my trip back to the UK, I completely forgot about a file with important documents inside. If my memory doesn't fail me, I left the file on the table that was located in the room I stayed at. The file has a read cover and a tree-colour logo at the top-right corner. I'd be very thankful if you could send me the file by the post. I'll send you by e-mail my exact address in the UK. I'll pay for all postal expenses related to sending the file from Australia to the UK. Thank you in advance, Betty.

A question about an expression or an idiom Hi ! I am looking for an expression in English that means if somebody is allowed to do something , he or she jump on this opportunity and asks for more. There is an expression in Russian that literally says "He is given a finger and he will eat up the whole hand". Is there something similar in English ? Thanks, Boris.

Hello. Talking about time (pm, am) I am listening for a sound track of learning program in English. http://elc.polyu.edu.hk/IELTS/li/ex/li_ex_tips.htm#2#1#8 One of the characters there says that a film will be screening at 12:30 ( without specifying weather it is 12:30 after noon or 12:30 at night). I am asked to choose one of possible options: 12:30 am 12:30 pm I have chosen 12:30 am and it turned out a wrong answer. Can you please tell me why ? Thanks, Boris.

Prepositions in English Hello everybody ! I am pretty confused about the way the prepositions are used in English. When should I use IN and when AT ? Are there any rules that can help to understand ? For example what usage is correct : AT the moment or IN the moment ( e.g. IN the moment you finish that , you can call me) IN the end or AT the end. ( e.g. IN the end he changed his mind and bought something else). Thank you for help , Boris.
