Everything worked fine for about eight weeks, then the unit started making funny metallic-sounding noises and finally stopped working. I live in a small town and don't know who to turn to for advice on fixing this machine. I feel ! should get a replacement. What should I do? I've complained to some close friends, but they don't know what to do either. Reputable businessmen and manufacturers welcome complaints. Sometimes it is the first indication that some- thing is wrong with their product. Most will respond im- mediately because they want to keep you as a customer. How to Complain Successfully • It is wise to complain in writing — keeping a copy. • Write legibly and, if possible, use a typewriter. • Keep it simple and to the point. Don't make sarcastic remarks. • If you are dealing with a local merchant, a personal discussion with the manager often clears up the situa- tion. Otherwise, a written letter is better and avoids the telephone brush-off. • Make sure you have the correct address. You will notice that more and more companies put their mailing address on cartons, literature and warranties. • Make sure you have a name (sales manager, president) to complain to. • Start your letter with your return address and telephone number. You would be surprised at the number of complaints received without this information. • State where you purchased the faulty article, the date of purchase if known, and, don't forget to indicate the model number when writing about appliances. • Sign the letter clearly. • Remember, always keep your receipts. Questions to ask when Buying I. Do I really need and want this article? Do I need it now? 2. Is it within my budget? Is the price what I thought I would pay, or is it suspiciously low? What are the interest charges? 3. Does the product appear to be good value for my money? 4. Is this a standard item or do I have a choice? Have I made the best choice for my use? 5. Is it the right size for my needs? 6. Can I get good service and replacement parts when necessary? 7. Can the article be used tight away? (Are there any additional purchases that must be made?) 8. Can I avoid spending money on anew article by repair- ing an old article that will do the same job?
