## Prompt

```text
Help me write a complaint that gets results.

**To:** [COMPANY / LANDLORD / SERVICE — and the department if known]
**What happened (with dates):** [FACTS IN ORDER]
**What I've already tried:** [calls, emails, reference numbers]
**Impact on me:** [cost, time, inconvenience]
**What I want:** [refund / replacement / repair / compensation / apology — be specific]
**Evidence I have:** [receipts, photos, emails]
**Channel:** [email / letter / web form / social media]

Write a complaint that:
- Opens with the issue and the exact remedy I'm requesting.
- Lays out a clear, factual timeline. No insults, no exaggeration.
- References my evidence and any order/account numbers.
- Sets a reasonable deadline for a response and states the next step if it isn't resolved (e.g. escalation, chargeback, regulator or ombudsman).
- Stays under 300 words.

Then give me a 2-sentence version for a phone call or chat, and tell me which consumer-protection body usually handles this kind of issue in [COUNTRY] so I can check it myself (I'll verify — this isn't legal advice).
```
