Gruppe-S has been pretty good for me. Mike and the others do great work, and the sales guys do pretty well too.

If I had to find a complaint, it would be that i think they are a bit disorganized when it comes ot scheduling things. I think they really try to do the best for each customer that comes in, and that sometimes that means making another customer wait (has happened to me, and others).

However, the reasonable prices, good work and good guys makes that minor quibble pretty much, well, minor.

LIC has been good to me, extremely helpful in answering questions I have, customer service is by far the best from my experience.

I second everything said here. Great service, prices, and quality of work, but on one occasion I sat in the lobby for 6 hours for 2 hours of work, even with an appt.
