I spoke to Guy Williams and whilst being very professional he was also friendly and understood that i was nervous and needed questions answered. He answered all of my questions in an easy to understand way. Before finishing my call he made sure that i was happy and didn’t have any further questions. Reviewed on: 26th August 2025

Catherine was professional, friendly and helpful.

Catherine was professional, friendly and helpful. However, as I had only 1 customer in front of me in the queue, and it took some time to answer my call, was she the only person dealing with calls. Finally, please use a lower case 'r' for 'Kind regards'. Reviewed on: 25th August 2025
