Today, 4.27 pm We've reported numerous issues about the awful system back to our network who do absolutely nothing, I'd imagine they're embarrassed to have thrown their weight behind the CRM so wholeheartedly, seemingly with the development capabilities of a ZX81 (one for the kids). All I can assume i...
