"If you can't be bothered to write to me with a signed letter, your complaint can't be that serious, and I like receiving bits of paper via my P.A.". Really. It's "too easy" to send an e-mail. -- Frank Erskine |

My experience is that nowadays letters written for the personal attention of name of chief exec are completely ignored by some household name companies. I don't think it makes a lot of difference. |

The tip I heard to use is a pink envelope (and lightly perfumed) and marked personal - not many PA's would open a potential love letter so it will get to the in-tray with a bit of luck. Neil |
