Awesome call taken by Joshua Solomone. He understood my requirements related to power and gas, did his investigations to find the best alternative service provider for me and found the best one available in the market. Not only that, Joshua also made sure that I got the best deal too.
Jordan has a very pleasant phone manner, even saying I sound younger than I am (blush) and noted my birthday was coming up soon - very personable, lovely and friendly demeanour. Also conscientious, intelligent and professional. Thank you Jordan for making it easy for me gracefully :)
