Dear Sir or Madam,

Last Thursday, I traveled on the 8:40 am train from Glasgow to London King's Cross and I was very unhappy with the service provided by your company.

The train was forty minutes late leaving Glasgow, and although the guard apologized, we were not given any reasons for the delay. We then had further delays when the train crew (乘務(wù)人員)changed at Preston and had to wait another thirty minutes. As a result, I missed my flight from London Healthrow to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.

What's more, the service on the train was also very poor. The trip took over five hours. Unluckily, there was no restaurant car on the train and only a bar with soft drinks. Worst of all, the air conditioning broke down halfway through the trip and it got hotter and hotter in the train. However, there was no apology for this. And before we reached King's Cross, the temperature was over 40 degree.

In view of the poor service, I felt I am entitled to compensation. (有權(quán)索賠 )

I look forward to hearing you.

                  Yours,

                  David Robertson
