Report
I made an enquiry with the company and requested further information. I was dealing with Aidan Goulding, the Managing Director. He never got back to me. He obviously couldn't be bothered, or felt that I wasn't worth his time.. Not a very professional way to conduct business. Every potential customer, large or small, should be treated with the utmost courtesy and professionalism, otherwise your conduct has a tendency to come back and bite you on the rear, especially in this age of online business reviews.
Aidan Goulding, I hope this is a lesson learnt the hard way.

Not courteous towards neighbours on their building sites. Abandon their vans and block people's cars from moving. Play music far too loud as well
