Dealing with Walter has been an absolute pleasure! I always felt well supported. He was always a phone call away if I had any... doubts, or queries. If he was not available at the time he would always call me back or send an email to organize a call. He has been so accommodating when I had a few personal issues and fell behind. Than you Walter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐read more
