  1. Contact Form Submitted

    I must enquire about a recent report made to yourself regarding Eivissa Glo (49 High Street), based in St Mary Cray (Orpington). It’s come to our attention that in a short space of time, several false claims have arisen in what we suspect to be a malicious attack by a disgruntled ex-employee that decided to leave. if you can share any information at all about the report made to you very recently, I’d greatly appreciate the help.
