Pésimo el servicio. Deberían tener una persona que hable español para que ayude a los que no hablan inglés.
Ayer jueves 24 de julio/25
Fui a enviar unos documentos a Colombia.
La señora jamás hizo el esfuerzo por explicar el valor del paquete.
Todo el tiempo estaba enojada y con una actitud de no querer explicar.
En pocas palabras pésimo el servicio.
