Let me just start off by saying this is one of the worst representation of Jamaica in the US as a company entity. The staff at this establishment are particularly rude especially the women. They are slow and they act as if they are not getting paid for the service . They never answer the phone so don’t even bother to call it’s a waste of time calling them. I have done an application paid for everything and three months later they send you a letter requesting some new information I then send the information back and it’s been another 3 months no response. They need to evaluate their staff and make changes to provide customers better service and they also need to appoint someone to answer the phone if everyone in office is busy dealing with in person customers because a lot of the times questions that people are asking is not visible on their website or on their voicemail system . They also need to consider that not everybody lives in Miami. There is a lot people that are living all over Florida so for this to be the main hub . The service is below average. Actually the service is very poor not everybody has a luxury of driving to Miami back-and-forth deal with one off situations that could’ve been dealt with over the phone. If I could give this place zero stars I definitely would . As a company representing a whole country you guys need to evaluate and do better .
