Was extremely surprised how easy it was to set up, even more surprised that there’s no upfront or hidden costs, £1 a month? Can’t go wrong. Received the machine after a day or 2, was called to help with machine set up. Barry was my advisor, he was very polite and helpful, very efficient and made this process and quick and easy as possible! Thanks! Ps. Loving the new machine!
