Buen trato al cliente y buen servicio por eso le di 5 estrellas totalmente recomendado gracias por el servicio
Signed up and immediately saw that I could get a good discount on my existing phone plan. It worked. Saving $25 a month. Many more savings available.
I was only satisfied with the agent that conducted the video. The rest of the chat agents kept passing me around and had me open tickets
I was directed to the site by my phone carrier and without prior knowledge was directed to perform the setup very quickly and clearly

If you want to waste a lot of time uploading documents it "clearly" states are acceptable on their site, go for it. I've wasted most of my morning changing formats ie pdf to jpeg, their site doesn't like pdf.
Clearly our government had picked a company to use that works as well as they do!
