My response :-


Ref: 101429

Thank you for your e-mail and I am sorry you had a disappointing
visit to the George and Dragon.

We have already been contacted by Mr Plair, another member of
your party regarding this matter. This has been forwarded on to
the Operations Manager to investigate and respond to Mr Plair on
behalf of your party.

Regards

Josie Brandon

101429 ? THE GEORGE & DRAGON

Thank you for your e-mail regarding your recent visit to the
George & Dragon.

It is always our intention to meet and exceed our guest's
expectations, both with the quality of our food and the service
we offer. I am sincerely sorry that on this occasion we have
failed to do this.

I was very concerned to receive details of your complaint and
would like to apologize for poor service that you received in the
bar. I have followed up your concerns personally with the
General Manager, Richard Wilson, at the George & Dragon. I can
confirm that Richard is addressing the staffing levels in order
to offer the appropriate level of service, however with
fluctuating numbers of guests our businesses can sometimes find
themselves with insufficient team members. In addition to this
Richard is conducting a thorough investigation to discover why
you were refused service, rather than informed of how soon you
could have been catered for, and will be taking appropriate
action to prevent any reoccurrence.

As a gesture of goodwill I wish to send you £75 of vouchers that
can be used at any Beefeater restaurant. Please supply us with an
address we can send these to you via registered post (
Customer.Relations@Whitbread.com)

I hope that I have managed to address the issues you have raised
and apologize again for the problems you encountered at the
George & Dragon. Thank you again for contacting us and do not
hesitate to contact me should you have any issues in the future.

Dear WRX_Dazza,
Thank you for your e-mail regarding your recent visit to the
George & Dragon.

Have to say your silver classic was by far the best car to grace our shabby carpark that night.
It is always our intention to meet and exceed our guest's
expectations, both with the quality of our food and the service
we offer. I am sincerely sorry that on this occasion we have
failed to do this.

As a gesture of goodwill I wish to send you £7500 of vouchers that
can be used at any Subaru Dealership. Please supply us with an
address we can send these to you via registered post (
Customer.Relations@Whitbread.com)

I hope that I have managed to address the issues you have raised
and apologize again for the problems you encountered at the
Gorge & Drag-on. Thank you again for contacting us and do not
hesitate to contact me should you have any issues in the future.
