I have been with PAngea over 4 years. Honestly, it has been a bad experience. There is never good communication with people in the office and with people over the phone. When I request something, it takes forever to get back at me. This month they raised my rent and people over the phone game one prize and when I am ready to sigh up there was a different number.
