We the undersigned would like Unilever, Michael Treschow (Chairman), Lord Simon of Highbury (Vice Chairman) and the CEO Paul Polman to bring back the delicacy that is Magnum Triple Chocolate.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I emailed you earlier in regards to the Magnum Triple Chocolate being taken off the market, and you have not yet had the liberty to response. As you can see, it is quite late at night; I have college in the morning and that happens to be 2 hours bus ride away, meaning that i have to get up at 6am. The last thing I want to be doing is sitting by my computer/telephone waiting for you to respond. You are a multi-million pound company who obviously will have people regularly checking the company's emails; why have you not yet responded to mine?
Is it because you see this as some form of joke? Or maybe you believe that noone enjoyed the Triple Chocolate Magnum, and that WE (yes, I have read of other complaints over the internet on researching the topic) are just some idiots that met over a website or something equally as ridiculous. We are not. We are Magnum Triple Chocolate lovers who want their favourite ice cream back, or, in my case, a frozen snack enthusiast with a dream.
Please consider our thoughts.
Yours sincerely,
-

this thread is genius. i thought i'd go with something believable as i actually WANT that free ice cream:
To who this may concern,
I am writing to you as I recently got back from a long spell in France and went to my local corner shop to purchase some 'Triple Chocolate' Magnum ice creams, which were my favourites. However, I had the misfortune to find that the shop no longer stocked this product. Much to my dismay, after also checking your website to find out that this flavour had been officially discontinued, I was left with a feeling of dread as a void was left where this flavour once resided. May I ask what would be the reasoning behind stopping the sale of this flavour (one which I had thought would've have been quite a popular flavour)?
Thank you and I eagerly await your reply,
Sam Diss

Yeah I think more serious ones are needed in order to even up the fucking downright hazelnuttiness of some of these.
These letters remind me alot of a book called "Dear customer services..." which consisted of a guy writing pretty strange letters of complaint to various companies.
Edit:
Already got the first one, in the album "My besties" with the title "SUSAN!"

Dear Sir or Madam
After much deliberation and many a furrowed brow I have eventually decided to write to you concerning that Excalibur of cold treats, "The Triple Chocolate" edition of the orally renowned "Magnum" ice cream. After taking the five minute walk from my parish to the local Netto, I was shocked and overcome with nausea by the sight of an empty section where my majestic stick bound companion used to lie. After hurriedly finding one of the wardens of the "cold section", I stood, mouth agape, as he proceeded to tell me that the ice cream had been discontinued. I fell to my knees as the news sunk in that I would never again, feel that delicious, creamy stick in my god fearing mouth.
Once in the safety of my own home, I realized that I am now unable to finish the model of my church I have tirelessly laboured over for the past year, what a brillaint idea I thought, a four foot model from magnum sticks, I was so close, I needed a triple chocolate magnum stick to complete the steeple alas cruel, cruel fate has yet again sabotaged my plans for a brighter future. Please could you provide me with any information as to the reasons for the demise of this powerhouse of cold snackage.
God bless you
Gerald Gibbons

To Whom it may Concern:
Dear Sir or Madam,
As a chronic sufferer of dysmenorrhoea (severe period pains), one of the few things that brings me comfort and relief during these uncomfortable spells is the joy that is Triple Chocolate Magnums, made by your good selves. So in all sincerity it pains me to read on a Facebook group that this news that the product has been discontinued. Thankfully I still have some left in the freezer should I have another attack.
Being a tertiary care nurse I am all to aware of the therapeutic benefits that a pleasurable experience can bring to a person. It can be something as simple as reading a nice poem, smelling a beautiful bouquet of flowers or as in my case Triple Chocolate Magnums.
Would you please be as kind to look into re-releasing this product? It worked for Cadbury’s Whispa and I believe they’re now more popular than ever before! So we all could win from this terrible and sad loss of a great product.
Yours truly,
Kim XXXXXXXX
