my needs so that they could send out the best information. There was no hard sell - I hate attempts to put pressure on me & was most impressed with the person who made the call. I was able to take my time making my decision without being badgered to do so. Information is clear with adequate detail but without too much of the usual ‘small print’. Very straightforward so was delighted with the service I received.

exceptional throughout - very friendly and knowledgeable. This company provides great value for money and time.
