IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Explanation — Money & banking

Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.

Your bank has asked you to explain a large payment that recently left your account. Write a letter to the bank. In your letter: • explain what the payment was for • give the date, amount and who received it • offer to provide documents if needed

Examiner focus: Compliance clarity: facts in order, documents offered, nothing defensive.
