  • Setting up new devices
  • Retrieving lost usernames and passwords

    Hi, I spent some time today with Lia at the Venton Centre in Eastbourne.
    She was so friendly and helpful even though I made it very clear that I was
    a technophobe. In actual fact, I did learn something and now no longer feel
    in awe of the dreaded smartphone.
    Thank you so much Lia – hope to see you soon. x
