Re: An apology for missing our appointment
Dear Customer Services Team,
I am sorry that I was not home for the repair appointment scheduled for September 10 at 10:00 a.m. I entered the time incorrectly in my calendar and recognize that this wasted your technician’s visit.
I should have checked the confirmation message rather than relying on my handwritten note. When I realized the mistake, I understood that your team had already set aside travel time and a place in its schedule for me. I take responsibility for not being ready.
I have corrected my calendar and will confirm the time before any new appointment. If you are willing to reschedule, please contact me at john.doe@example.com. I appreciate your time and understand the inconvenience I caused.
Sincerely,
John Doe
What this letter is
An apology letter acknowledges something you did, recognizes its impact and explains what you want to do differently. It should not demand forgiveness or minimize the other person’s experience.
What to put in it
- What happened in your own words
- The impact you want to acknowledge
- A specific next step you can follow through on
A written apology gives the recipient space to consider your words without an immediate response.

Good to know.
What should I avoid in an apology?
Avoid excuses, blame and demands for forgiveness. Be specific about your actions and any realistic steps you intend to take.
Can a letter guarantee reconciliation?
No. A letter communicates your apology; the recipient decides whether and how to respond. Respect requests not to contact them.

- Prices are shown exclusive of sales tax; applicable sales tax is calculated and added at checkout. The base price covers a one-page letter ($3.99 First-Class, $14.99 Certified Mail); for multi-page letters, $0.49 per additional page (up to six pages) are added and shown before payment. The handwritten style is an optional $1.99 add-on, also shown before payment. Letters may be up to 12 pages.
- Genie is an automated AI system, not a person. It drafts each letter from the information you provide and does not add facts or claims you did not supply. AI-generated output may vary or contain errors; you are responsible for reviewing and approving the final letter, and no letter is mailed without your approval.
- Address lookup and verification rely on third-party data and are provided on a best-efforts basis. Accuracy is not guaranteed; you are responsible for confirming the recipient’s address before sending.
- Delivery times are estimates, not guarantees. Statutory deadlines, notice periods and filing requirements vary by state, contract and program — check the ones that apply to you.
