Tasks: Complete the gaps in these emails with one of the word partnerships with do.

Dear Mr Johnson,
Please do me the courtesy of replying to my letter. I have now written to you three times asking for payment, but so far you have not replied. I have done my utmost/my best to provide you with a good service, and I believe I did a good job of it. Now it is time to pay! I have done my utmost/my best to be patient with you. I hope that you can do likewise. If I don’t receive payment within this month, I shall have no alternative but to do something about it by contacting my lawyer.

I hope you remembered to use the correct form of the verb!
