Hi Lamees,

Thank you for helping to get our GIC remitted on our tax debt. What a successful outcome.

You have been wonderfully helpful and empathetic through this whole stressful tax debt process. I really don’t know how we would have managed without you!

Kindest Regards

Lamees

Thank you Lamees for helping with the tax debt GIC remission

Dear Tania

I want to thank you for responding so promptly to my request for assistance and thank you so much for assigning Lamees to look after our case.

She has been so very good to work with, I appreciate her skill at listening closely and understanding the specific details very quickly. She has assisted me personally by very gently managing my anxiety over this problem – by staying in touch and updating whenever possible.

We are of course hoping for a good outcome, but regardless of this it is comforting to know that she has a firm grasp of the issue and is dealing with it professionally and with sensitivity.
