The Wrong Jumper

Subject: Problem with my order #UK2489

Dear Sir/Madam,

I ordered a blue jumper from your website last week. The jumper arrived today, but it is green, not blue! I paid $35 for this jumper and I am not happy. I want the blue one that I ordered.

Please help.

Kind regards,
Tom Wilson

Dear Mr Wilson,

Thank you for your email about order #UK2489. I am very sorry about this mistake.

I can see that we sent you the wrong colour. I understand this is disappointing. I have two solutions for you:

1. You can keep the green jumper and we will give you $10 back
2. We can send you the blue jumper tomorrow. You can use the label in the box to send the green one back to us. You don't need to pay for postage.

Please let me know what you would like to do.

Best wishes,
Emma Parker
Customer Service Manager
