TrustpilotThe people are as bad as it gets
The people are as bad as it gets, they hang up if they don't have an answer, they allow sirens on their properties run for DAYS, they rig the out-of-hours emergency phone line so they don't have to take calls - Literally "queue position 2" for an hour and over 100 calls. I hope they die in a fire because the person they call cares as little as they do to bother to pick up the phone.
