What merchants complain about

“EDIT 30/05/2018: Developer has changed the text with our prices, which now means the text is all squashed. Waiting for a reply from them to fix this back to how it was.... The two prices (inc & ex VAT) flashes up then disappears, so doesn't work for us. Shame as we only wanted it to show both prices, not for all the VAT ID features. Price text on collections if far too big too and overlaps so looks awful on our site Had to uninstall after no-one on live chat and no response to email :(”
