var vild med denne app indtil den blev opdateret. totalt uprofessionelt setup nu - man kan ikke se hvem man chatter med og træningen med agenten er mangelfuld og man kan ikke få rullet de oprindelige indstillinger tilbage - så fra at den var til 5 stjerner er den nu kun til 0 stjerner - hvis jeg kunne give det! Troede
So easy for my customers to message me and I love that it informs me immediately, unlike an email.
