Billing team
First and foremost, the formatting in this email is inconsistent and does not read as a professional business/billing email. Secondly, the sender and recipient emails are weird. I did call the number, but someone answered but did not introduce themselves by name or title and stayed on the line for a full minute asking hello, hi, are you there before they finally hung up. When they called me back, the caller ID listed EGG HBR CITY NJ.
