Really disappointing. Used Lee Marston. Found sole objective to be boosting fee income rather than having any interest in doing a good job. Will say anything to keep a case going rather than attempting to resolve anything.

Just found out I've been blamed for these guys sitting on questions for over a month before sending them through to me. Very dishonest to be blaming the vendor for their own slow actions
