Please check this sentence

To compensate you, we will give you a 10% discount off this month's Internet bill.

Is it gramatically ok? Thank you.

Its better to put "to..." clause in the end of the sentence and not the very beginning. (I think it is fine though)

To compensate for your loses, we'll take 10% off this month's internet bill.

.... we'll give you a 10% discount on this month's internet bill.

You do not "give 10% discount off".

Hi,

This is my thought. You are communicating to your ISP and your ISP responded . So this is what the reply should sound in natural tone:

To compensate for your inconvenience, we will take 10% off this month's billing.

It's not necessary to say "internet bill" since it's understood.
