use "However" or "Nevertheless.", "I was disappointed to find that the product did not match the description.", Formal/Passive-ish: A professional way to express dissatisfaction without being rude., "Your website lied about the product.", Informal/Active: Overly emotional and informal vocabulary; lacks the distance required in formal English., "Could you tell me how much I'll get paid?", Informal/Direct: Uses a contraction (I'll) and a direct question about a topic (getting paid)., "I am writing to clarify if a small allowance is provided, as the leaflet mentions volunteering is unpaid.", Formal/Indirect: A polite way to ask about money/benefits., "In light of the above, I would appreciate a full refund.", Formal/Linking: A high-level phrase to conclude a letter of complaint and state your expectations., "So, give me my money back please.", Informal/Direct: Too demanding and uses "So" as a linker, which is too casual for an exam., "Consequently, we are looking for alternative transport.", Formal/Linking: "Consequently" is a great B2+ result linker., "It was expected that the item would be delivered on Tuesday.", Formal/Passive: Using the "It + passive" construction shows a high level of grammatical control., "You said it would come on Tuesday.", Informal/Active: Simple "Subject + Verb" structure that sounds a bit childish in a formal complaint..
