They don't even have a support phone number to call into. It is an answering server. They brag about making millions and when you do the math, 10% of millions is alot of money the supposedly bring in. And you don't have a support phone center? Ridiculous!!! The ticket support system takes about 3 days to get closed out and they delete you jobs which have all your notes after 30 days!!! The quality of their providers is horrible and if you ever have an issue with billing, you can forget it!! BOTTOM LINE: They are horrible!!!
