PostRight - Professional Complaint Letters

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about sending a complaint letter with PostRight.

Why Send a Letter?

Companies are increasingly removing email addresses and online complaint forms, pushing customers toward chatbots and phone queues designed to wear you down. A physical letter is different. It creates a paper trail, carries legal weight, and signals you are serious. Many companies have dedicated teams for written correspondence that are empowered to actually resolve complaints — unlike frontline customer service.

Yes. A formally worded letter sent via Royal Mail demonstrates intent and commitment in a way an email never can. It also starts the clock on response deadlines, which matters if you later need to escalate to an ombudsman or take the matter to small claims court.

If the company does not respond within your stated deadline, PostRight will follow up with you by email to ask if the matter was resolved. If not, we make it easy to send a follow-up escalation letter — either a Letter Before Action (the step before small claims court) or a Formal Complaint Escalation to senior management and the relevant ombudsman.

For many dispute types, yes. A posted letter provides proof of delivery (especially with Signed For or Special Delivery), gives you a clear timestamp, and is the format expected by ombudsman services and courts if a dispute escalates. PostRight is not a law firm, but our letters are drafted to reference the relevant UK consumer legislation for your dispute type.
