One of the staffs not helpful
Everyone is very helpful, and pleasant, I am fully satisfied with the service, except one of the yards man, called Hassan, not very helpful and in fact he would walk past you and ignores you completely, pretending he is busy, he is very lazy and argumentative, he lets the branch down big time. I assumed he was like that with me, but other customers have said their experience with him has been the same. He lets this branch down. The above comments apply to numerous visits and not just one day.
