What does “Rest assured” mean?
An attempt to reassure someone; it does not itself explain what action is being taken.
“Assurance is pleasant. An update is more useful.” — Arthur
What it means in practice
This phrase tries to make you feel confident, but the reassurance itself gives no evidence of progress. The useful information is the action being taken, who is handling it and when you will hear more.
An example and a clearer version
Rest assured, we are looking into this.
We are checking the problem and will update you tomorrow.
What to say instead
say what you are doing.
How to make the next step clear
A helpful reply can thank the person and ask for those details. If you are writing the service message, replace general reassurance with a concrete update you can actually deliver.
Wording you can adapt
The wording around a phrase matters. Keep the names, dates, amounts and conditions from the original when you rewrite it.
