Reliable, solid, competitive

Patient, understanding and helpful. Could try to use only electronic verification for new customers initially as most competitors do, it makes it less onerous to try and become members/customers as there are less hoops to jump through. Reviewed on: 4th December 2024

Helpful and understanding

The staff are very knowledgeable about the products. Nothing is too much for them, they go the extra mile. They are extremely polite in an easy going way. The front office lacks privacy but you are offered access to a private office if needed. Reviewed on: 1st December 2024
