"The standard of service from NCC staff (is) excellent"

Dear Matthew,

I just wanted to commend the staff of National Custom Compounding (NCC). On each contact with NCC the staff have been extremely helpful and the service has been outstanding.

I live in the Penrith area and from placing my order to receipt of my order is 4 days maximum. My order is only a small order but the standard of service from NCC  staff excellent.

Kind regards Chris
