Service representative，
I recently received a notification of outstanding charges on my account．I am very confused and distressed by the situation outlined in your letter．
First of all，I am certain that I paid for all services during the two billing period in question．The payments were on time and for the correct amount．I used your company’S automated telephone billing system and paid with my credit card．I am including transaction receipts from my credit card company that list these payments and the dates on which they were processed by your company.
After I had paid then，I did receive multiple bills for the periods 7／15—8／14 and 9／15—10／14 as stated in your letter．I tried repeatedly to report this error to your company via the customer service email system，but I never received a response．I am also attaching copies of these emails for your review．
These documents clearly show that I have made all payments in a timely fashion，and I hope they will help you resolve this situation．If you have any more questions for me，please contact me by phone(555-7690)or email(rwalt79@mzmail．com)．
