Dear Customer Complaints Department

I recently purchased a new Smart Watch from your company, however, I believe the
item is faulty! The buttons do not appear to be working and the watch will not turn on. I
have charged the watch with the USB cable provided but to no avail.

I am very dissatisfied with this product and would like a replacement sent out straight
away! Also, how do I send this product back and will I be compensated for the return
postage?

I hope that you are able to rectify this situation in a swift manner.

Many Thanks

Thomas Blightman
