Communication is non existent via emails. Very rude when asking questions over the phone. When asking for documents to be emailed to you they don't even ask you who you are nor do they ask for you email. Just said when we get them and hung up, and they never emailed them (how could they, they didn't ask for my email) so I had to call them back the next day, and this was a different person and she was rude too. I would NOT use them.
