My initial phone call a week ago was difficult as I could not understand the person I was speaking to however today I spoke to Jamie and he was excellent. He took time to explain everything to me. He was courteous and kind as I recently lost my husband. I was thinking of leaving Alinta but dealing with Jamie on the phone altered my mind. Thank You Jamie
