Difficult emails
I'd like you to rewrite this email. It's for a complaint I have about the way I've been treated.
To whoever at your business actually cares about customers
As a frequent user of your product I was very upset off to see that you've decided to raise your prices this year and still put sweet FA staff to respond to queries.

Anyway, I'm writing to tell you I'm giving my notice as a customer and I demand a SIP ref so I can change to a decent supplier
Good riddance
