I first approached Ibtihel Sayar to assist me in issuing a business license in Dubai Mainland. I was impressed by the outstanding customer experience she showed and by the excellent service received from her and the team at EBMS: Mindi Sen and Syed Ghayoor. I call them a Dream-Team. I am sure there are hidden soldiers too. They expressed an outstanding attitude and were available even beyond their working hours and weekends. As a facilitator and expert in customer experience, I was impressed by their loyalty to the customers of EBMS Business Services. Thank you Dream-Team and thank you everyone at EBMS Business Services.

I applied through EBMS for opening my company’s office in Dubai. Here i was introduced to Mr Tauseef Ali who explained all the required details to me for the process. Going through the process i could feel the transparency that was maintained by EBMS for this. Even at my first meeting with Mr Tauseef Ali, the procedure looked so selfless that it was somehow hard to believe, but eventually i found it same as explained. My heartfelt thanks to Mr. Tauseef for his genuine cooperation in helping me attain my Immigration card and making the procedure so hassle free with his prompt support.
