Ended up quitting a few weeks ago. The work itself isn't too bad (Apart from the hours being a pain in the arse), but I can confirm that the company itself are absolutely useless. Nobody in the office seemed to talk to each other and you'd get 3 different people ringing you up to ask the same question, which you'd already answered.
When I handed my notice in, they sent me the generic leaving email and told me to return my stuff. I worked my notice, then had someone call the week after asking why I hadn't been turning up. Explained to her that I didn't work there anymore and all was sorted. Then a week later I had an email telling me that I'd been fired because I still wasn't turning up....
They also don't answer the phone to their own couriers if there's a problem with any delivery, and are generally impossible to get hold of, with emails/phone calls/follow-up emails/follow-up-follow-up emails going unanswered.
Returned my shoddy equipment with some breakages (Not my fault) and still haven't seen the £150 deposit return to my account yet, so we'll have to see about that.
In short, I wouldn't bother with them.
