Shocking service from start to finish

Shocking service from start to finish. Do NOT use these guys. Once they have the sale they do not want to know. Customer service is non existent. I haven't been able to take card payments now for over 2 weeks which has caused me no end of headaches. Awful :(

Friendly and Personal service

Karen Fabrizi helped get me set up with a new card machine in under 20 minutes start-to-finish. Very easy process, friendly service, and she helps to make sure the system is set up properly.

I would highly recommend Karen to any business of any size looking to set up or improve their card processing abilities.

Massive shout out to Callum for helping me deal with a problem we had with an old machine at work that died on us.
Callum went above and beyond to source new machines with the same benefits and design features as the now obsolete old one.
Callum was extremely helpful and kept me informed throughout the whole process.

5 Star customer service.

Ian Dawson was incredibly helpful in finding a quick and efficient solution for our card payment needs. He recommended WIFI terminals and had them set up within just a few hours of our initial conversation. His ongoing support has been invaluable. I would highly recommend Ian Dawson for his exceptional service, especially if you need a prompt and reliable solution.

Excellent customer service

I want to express my gratitude for the outstanding customer service provided by Alfie Cook. He was incredibly efficient and handled my refund with ease. From the moment we connected, Alfie listened attentively to my concerns and quickly understood my situation. His swift response and clear communication made the entire process seamless and stress-free. It’s rare to find customer service representatives as dedicated and responsive as Alfie. His professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction truly stood out. Thank you, Alfie, for turning what could have been a complex process into a positive experience!
