Hi everyone ! Long time no see!
What is wrong with this letter sending out to its agents as well as clients by TDC?

Quote:
Dear Sir/Madam,

CEPA is creating enormous business opportunities for thousands of Hong Kong service providers.

Please refer to this brochure for details or call the enquiry hotline at 1830 668

I'd say 'on' with a phone number and sign off with 'Yours faithfully'.

Thank you Mr. Tdol! You are my real English teacher for nothing.

I understand that if using Dear Sir/Madam,
the ending should be used Yours faithfully.
But if we use Dear Mr. Tdol, Mr Ronbee, or Miss Casiopea,
We should enclose the letter with Yours sincerely,
How about Yours truly?

Regarding the telephone number, we usually use at. I am still pondering whether it is correct or not!

That letter looks perfectly fine to me. Is the question about the closing?
