WELL….I’ve been calling them for over a week. No one ever answers the phone. I’ve left my number for a call back several times no one ever calls back.

Terrible - NO CUSTOMER SERVICE

Terrible. No customer service, all ticket base and they never get back to you. I have been trying to reach my so-called account manager for more than 30 days. I left countless voice messages and sent more than 100 emails. the refuse to answer. I tried to cancel the account but guess what? only the account management team can do it... but they don't answer the phone or respond to messages... in the meantime, I'm getting charged bogus fees and can't do anything about it. STAY AWAY!!!!
