Excellent Service

I had debt appointment with Shabana from Barking & Dagenham. I was struggling financially due my low income. Shabana identified my problem and advised me on that, on top of that she spoke to DWP to reduce my deduction from UC which is sort of comfort for me.

Thanks for your Incredible support Shabana.
