Scented Stocks florist

I'm very unhappy with this company. I cancelled my account at the end of November. Services ceased on December 4th in which i paid my final bill. It's January 6th and i keep getting emails for different payments. I have signed no contract and the portal service is very unreliable. When I get in contact by telephone I feel like I am taking to a robot.

Restored Faith

I had started to lose my faith in Chess, but after speaking with Georgia Lowe who actually took the time to understand my issue, and within an hour she had called me back and had it resolved. Georgia has solely restored my faith.
I wish there were more people like Georgia in this world :)

In thought I had a complicated problem!

In thought I had a complicated problem. I have a business contract for broadband services but due to retirement, I needed to swap this to a domestic contract. I foresaw problems but Chess made it perfectly easy and pain-free. Special shout-out to KerryAnne Farmer-Tomblin who provided excellent service and communication throughout.

Samsung tablet purchase

Excellent and extremely quick service from Gareth regarding the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy tablet and all the associated set requirements. The tablet was purchased for a team member who was able to be up and running without any issues in a very short period of time thanks to Gareth's help.
