Overall Experience
The reviews from several authors provide a mixed bag of experiences with this company. While some customers have had pleasant interactions, others have been left feeling disturbed and traumatized.
Positive Experiences
Some customers have reported having a great time with this company, citing friendly staff members who provide helpful advice and support. For example, Cain Thomas had a positive experience with a staff member named Rasol, who was approachable and kind. Additionally, Andrea Mckenzie praised the company's project delivering parcels to children during lockdown, while Catch Rebecca George expressed gratitude for their delivery of an interview skills session.
Negative Experiences
However, another reviewer, Bob McBobby, described a horrific experience where the company's staff member contacted the police, informing them that they had severe concerns about his friend's wellbeing, without consulting his friend first. This incident led to his friend's trauma and humiliation. Bob McBobby strongly criticized the company, stating that they only have positive reviews from themselves.
