Really great engineer!

There were several missed attempts before the booking took place and some of the rearrangements were made without checking with me first but once the engineer arrived she was, as usual, really excellent.

Good morning Karen,

I hope you're well,

Firstly I do apologise for the delays with getting our engineer to replace the product. It seems there was an administrative error which meant the order had not been processed yet.

I can see that our team have now contact you and provided an attendance date.

Once again, I do apologise for the time it has taken to resolve this.

Kind regards,
Bradley

Poor correspondance.

I recieved a quotation for an under counter water boiler but this was for supply only. Have tried contacting now a number of times as I require a quote for installation also. This has been over two weeks now and no-one has responded.
