Good morning, :-)
I'm obviously not getting anywhere with my complaint please let me talk to someone senior to you. What does "I`m obviously not getting anywhere" mean?
Many thanks for respond,

The person complaining does not feel that any action is being taken to address his complaint.

Hi Dina,
'I'm not getting anywhere with my complaint' suggests you are not being at all successful when you have made a complaint because nobody has taken any notice. Supposing you have bought a washing machine and it doesn't work. You email the shop you bought it from, you telephone them and you write them a letter but nothing happens and you realise you're not getting anywhere.
