Dear X,

Good day. Thanks for your efforts in finalizing this transaction, also am glad to inform you that your total price on the rooms has been accepted by us. However the sponsor is going to send you a certified cheque { 10,000 Euros } that will cover the cost of our accommodation and that of the Rental company, who will take care of our flight tickets and cars the students will use during their stay. Furthermore once you receive the cheque payment, deposit and confirm the cash money in your bank account, then deduct the cost of your services { 2,340 Euros}, and send { 7,660 Euros}, to the Rental company whose information will be forwarded to you once this is confirmed.

This payment method will cost you nothing, since all the charges will be decucted from the cheque. So, confirm by providing the following information:

(1) YOUR FULL NAME (name on cheque)...............
(2) ADDRESS (for cheque delivery)................
(3) PHONE NUMBERS.............
(4) FAX NUMBER(optional)......, for payment to be delivered to you.T he company will highly appreciate your prompt response and usual cooperation. I also hope that the stay of our students will be made memorable.

Thanks for your anticipated cooperation.

Kind Regards.
