Dear Abayomi. Sorry that you have left a negative review on our page. I have searched our database and cannot see that you have used the services of O'Connor Bowden Manchester City Centre nor can I see that we have agreed any sale to you. Therefore I hold no contact details for you. Can I ask that you email me at [email protected] and we can discuss further. Regards Alison O'Connor. ...
