RECOMMENDATIONS
“As you know I tend to send out these types of emails when
we are impressed with the level of service received from
your company. Mark has been servicing PSTG on various
matters for a while now, and I just wanted to say what a
terrific job he does every time. His pleasant disposition in
our environment, where I know isn’t always happy-go-lucky,
makes us truly pleased to have him assist with our issues. It’s
always refreshing when he can’t resolve the problem
immediately, that he researches it, and gets back to us the
next day. I would like to request that he does our monthly
servicing …”. Ms. Saira Ali, PSTG Consulting.
“Mark’s ability to troubleshoot and solve
our issues made us always ask for him to
be assigned to us whenever we had a
problem. We had a security camera
system installed and had almost a year
of problems till Mark was sent to us and
he solved the problem. This was
approximately two years ago and to
date we have not had any further
issues”. Mr. Smyke Sammy, Manager,
Coblentz Inn Hotel.
