Play MPE has been by far the best. Customer service is great (with other agencies, it’s patchy, advice isn’t offered and emails are often not replied to), and subsequently we have received a lot of airplay and recognition thanks to this promotion. I’ve also felt comfortable asking questions and making changes.
