Coping with the deluge of inquiries ever since has been tough. No one wants to wait and everyone wants an instant assistant. The company has been hiring and training staff on the double.

Due to the shortage of staff we have also put up an announcement on the site about the wait time after sign up.
Despite all this we have been keeping our promise to all those who signed up with us by either commencing service on the due date or well ahead of it.
