    I’m honestly thankful to IFG for how they handled my whole journey. I didn’t know what to expect at first, but they were patient, answered every question, and guided me through things I had no idea about. What I appreciated most is that I never felt pushed or judged. The coordinators were always in touch, even late evenings. It’s a stressful process, but with them it felt manageable. I’m really glad I chose IFG!

    Can’t recommend, poor service, very quick to get you sign and pay but service falls off afterwards. Can’t recommend, avoid if possible and save yourself a headache.
