IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Complaint — Housing
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
You rent a flat and the heating has not worked properly for two weeks, despite several phone calls to your landlord. Write a letter to your landlord. In your letter: • explain the problem and how it affects your daily life • mention the attempts you have already made to get it fixed • say what action you expect, and by when
Examiner focus: Polite firmness: documented attempts, daily-life impact, and a reasonable deadline.
