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.

Dave Sutherland Artist, Americana/Non-Comm

Working with Play MPE has been A+++ experience all around. Our new indie record label, Soulville Sound Recordings, felt comfortable, confident and valued. Best of all, we can see the results of Play MPE in a transparent manner in nearly real time. We’ll be back for Round 2 soon.

The customer service has been invaluable to me as I am not a power user. Play MPE’s team are always quick to respond, and happy to help. I honestly would not be able to do the job without their continued high-quality assistance. I even got totally surprised by a REFUND when THEY found I had accidentally selected the same list more than once. I would never have known my mistake. They not only helped me, but without me even asking, they corrected it immediately.
