"Hi [Member name removed], I am sorry to hear about the issues with your move. I checked with your move coordinator, and he did not receive a phone call or email from you regarding these issues. 1. We always respond to damages issues when a customer lets us know they have occurred. Since we did not hear from you, we had no way of knowing that happened. We would have (and still will, if you still need it done) sent someone out at your convenience to make repairs to the walls for you. 2. Materials - you were charged for $19 worth of materials, a mattress bag and 3 rolls of tape. The bag was used to protect your mattress from dirt and the tape was most likely to secure pads to furniture and/or TVs. 3. Minimum charges - the driver on that job had just started working for us and had previously worked for a company that had a 4 hour minimum. Our minimum is 2.5 hours. I do apologize for that. We would have easily been able to resolve that question if you'd called your move coordinator when you were told there was a 4 hour minimum. As it turns out, you only paid for 2 hours of labor time and .75 hours of travel time (which was fixed at .75 hours at the time you booked your move). Thus you paid 2.75 hours total, plus $19 materials. Again, I apologize for the confusion over the minimum time, and I would encourage you to give us a call or send us an email if you would like us to send someone out to repair the walls. Best, Oscar’s Moving Company"
The sales rep, Tony, then told me, "We are raising the price 20% because you took so long to give us a date." I objected, saying "You never told me the price would go up if I didn't give you a date by a certain time." He basically said "too bad. Good luck with your move" and hung up on me.
I would never recommend a business with this lack of integrity.
I have used them two or three times. It was really cheap. They gave me a huge discount. It usually is $139, I think and I got it for $79. It was customer appreciation because I had used them in the past and because I referred people to them and used them myself several times. I would never use another moving company in my life as long as they are in business. And if somebody asked me I would definitely tell them to go there.
