    Seamless transition

     The account manager revisited my account history and was able to satisfactorily pinpoint my dissatisfaction with my exorbitant billing Upon joint review we were able to arrive at a fair price moving forward and he was also instrumental in a review of an additional utility account. This was my very first person to person contact with this company and I did not go away disappointed nor unsatisfied.
