SAMPLE LETTER

From: Matilde Thomas

Dear Mr. Jones,

Just this morning, I received a settlement check you issued for the storm damages that occurred to our property in York last month. It is in the amount of $750.00 with regards to the storm damage that occurred to the property. The letter that comes with the check states that it reflects the depreciation value of our property.

I would like you to take another look at my insurance policy number 5874662 where you can clearly see that I have been settling the surcharge fees required so the property won’t be receiving a depreciation value. When you look at the records, you will see that I am entitled to receive $1,320 instead of the $750 you sent.

Having said that, I believe that there has been an error. I am asking for the right amount to be sent to me. Please send the balance for the full settlement.

If you need to discuss more with me regarding this issue, please contact me anytime at 872-7777. Thank you very much!

Sincerely Yours,
Matilde Thomas
