He thinks he knows a lot, but trust me he doesn't. If he did, I would have been cured years ago after working with him for multiple years. He has not helped me and he is soooooooooooooooooooooooo lazy. HE IS A JOKE. DO NOT C HIM. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF.

He was very unhelpful and he didn’t fix my issue when he said he was confident he could. So he lied and fooled me and mislead me. It’s awful.
