### 1/5 — Unbelievably the worse customer service I have experienced!

*2022-07-25, version 2.0*

I’ve had Marianne D. Take care of my ticket and then proceeded to close the ticket without resolving the issue. I’ve made a new ticket and it has been a week and still no help. Unbelievably awful, utterly disappointed.

### 5/5 — Super great way to receive tips!

*2019-04-24, version 1.0*

Nobody has cash anymore, but with the Air Merchant app running in the background, I’m able to receive tips any time from anyone with the PayRange app.

**Developer response:** Great to hear you are now able to receive tips though Air!
