Sample 1.

You had an appointment with the bank and now you realized that you can not make it for that.

Write a letter to the manager:

1) Give details of appointment

2) Explain the reasons why you cannot make it
3) Ask for other date

Dear Mr. Jerry Mouse,

I am Tom Cat from "Soft Electronics" company who have an appointment with you. I am
writing to request your assistance concerning the matter of rearrangement of our meeting to a
new date.

First and foremost, our first meeting has been arranged on 5th of January, according to the
details, at a conference Hall of your bank. We planned to discuss possible sum of loan and
plastic cards of our employees. Unfortunately, I have to delay meeting due to acceptable
reasons related to governmental law. The authority of Uzbekistan has recently announced
closure of offices and starting online mode of operating during a week of anomaly cold
temperature. As both our organizations operate remotely, we cannot meet on time.

Please, let me offer new date for this meeting, the last Monday of January. Would it be possible
for you to organize it on the new date? If you have further suggestions, I will eagerly accept it.

I hope that my request will not inconvenience you too much. I look forward to receiving your
reply as soon as possible.

Your faithfully,

Tom Cat.
