Report
Doing all they can to ensure thousands of complaints stay as backlog and time is stretched so everyone is getting paid in an stretched contract. Worse management.

Some of the staff are useless and some pretty good. One of the best is leaving this Friday, no doubt to be replaced by someone useless. Avoid this branch if you can.
