Report
If there was something lower than 1 star I would leave it. Don't work with this firm unless you have lots of time - and money - to waste on the mistakes they make. Not only will they continue to make errors, when you call to find out what happened, they charge you for the phone call. What a great racket! Update: Boyum did remove the charge for our follow up emails and calls.
