Summarise a Long Complaint History Into One Effective Escalation

You have been dealing with this for six months. The complaint has a long paper trail and an escalation letter that covers all of it in painful detail. Nobody reads that. This extracts the core issue, the critical timeline, and drafts a focused escalation statement in the format that ombudsmen and senior managers actually respond to.
