An Open Letter of Apology About The Door Mats

April 18, 2011

LETTER OF APOLOGY

I am writting this Letter of Apology for all inconveniences we created with the units’ doormats removal.

It was just a misunderstanding when the cleaner mistakenly removed the doormats in order to give proper access to the carpet cleaners. It was not intended to completely remove the doormats nor to create an inconvenience, and we took action correcting this situation as soon as it was identified.

The cleaner will return the doormats at your unit. If you don’t have your mat returned by tomorrow April 19 please contact Didi at 604.719.3884 with a brief description of your mat and she will bring it back at your door.

Thank you for your understanding.

Kevin Costea,
