Subject: RE: Order Confirmation
Dear Mr. Arp,
Thank you for your e-mail. I reviewed the attached breakdown that you sent me, and I’m afraid that I did notice a pretty significant mistake.
Your e-mail says that I ordered fifty (50) boxes of a product, but I actually only ordered fifteen (15). I was rather shocked to see such a high number in the order, but I suppose the man on the phone simply misheard me. After all, the numbers do sound similar. Could you please make sure the amount due is updated before payment gets taken out of my account?
Secondly, would it be possible for you to send me a new confirmation in which you itemize all the expenses including the ones that aren’t currently listed? My company needs to see these charges broken down on separate lines. I hope this won’t be too much work.
Thank you,
Jessie Patton
