Another question, which one is correct?

1. I'm sorry, my handphone has gone out of order since yesterday.

2. I'm sorry, my handphone is out of order since yesterday.

Apprecaite your feedback, thank you.

The natural sentence would be:

3. I'm sorry, my handphone has been out of order since yesterday.

Another question, can i write: It's (is) confirmed, tuesday 7th Sept., 9.30am.

Is the use of 'it is' grammatical correct?

Depending on what 'it' refers to, yes, jeeva. The sentence itself needs a touch of revision if it is to be written in a business-like manner:

'It's (is) confirmed: Tuesday, September 7th, at 9.30am.'

or

'It's (is) confirmed for Tuesday, September 7th, at 9.30am.'

This is what I meant "It's (is) confirmed: Tuesday, September 7th, at 9.30."

Here the 'it' refers to a preventive maintenance (PM) that will be conducted on Tuesday, September 7th, at 9.30am.

Apprecaite your kind advise, thank you.

Hi there,

New question.

Suppose I'm quering about a job where I say, " Goodmorning, I'm calling regarding the vacany for the Sales & Service Executive" and then the other person replies, " I'm sorry it's close."

Is the use of 'close' correct?

Apprecaite if you'd comment on the above, thank you.

Jeeva
