Hi, I'm Dameon. Today, I want to share some ideas about a specific IELTS speaking card topic:
Describe a complaint that you made and were satisfied with the result.
You should address the following points:
When this happened
Who you complained to
What you complained about
Explain why you were satisfied with the result
Firstly, let's discuss a few ideas.
Idea 1: Hotel Stay Last year, I stayed at a hotel during my vacation. After checking in and entering the room, I discovered it had not been cleaned. I went back to the reception and spoke to the receptionist about the problem. The hotel staff apologized and offered me an upgrade to a better room.
Idea 2: Restaurant Visit Last week, I visited a newly opened hot pot restaurant. Upon arrival, I noticed that the restaurant was extremely busy. The waiters and waitresses were stressed and somewhat rude. It took over an hour to be seated, and the service was slow. I spoke with the manager and expressed my dissatisfaction with the delay. He apologized and offered me a discount on my bill for the inconvenience.
Idea 3: Online Shopping I ordered a T-shirt online a few days ago. I chose a bright red T-shirt with a funny quote. The following day, the parcel was delivered to my home. However, when I opened the package, I noticed that the T-shirt was pink, not red, and the quote was different. I decided to email the company to provide details of the issue. The company replied, offering to fix the problem and gave me a discount voucher for my next purchase.
In the next post, I will give a sample 2-minute speech about a hotel stay that uses a wide range of grammar and vocabulary.
