Despite my disappointing news, I hope you have a great holiday season. We appreciate the continued opportunity to earn your business.

So unfortunately, it's not an option. But they were surely nice about it (as I knew they would be). Even congratulated me on reaching 75k (even though I'm not).

What a well written response! It clearly left you feeling good about the company, and me too since you shared it. A great demonstration of how having some one with a proper comand of the english language can leave a good impression.

You should see the responses I got recently from Chase and US Airways, one bad enough that I closed an account.
