Professional Extortionists
I hired Long Distance Movers, Inc. in July 2017 to move my one-bedroom apartment. The Binding Moving Estimate included up to 2000 pounds of items. I compiled an extremely detailed inventory of our things (we don't have a lot of possessions) and weighed each item/box. We were under the weight by approx. 800 pounds. Long Distance Movers had my list in early July and again four days before the move (on Oct. 3). At no point did any employee of LDM say that any of my items would require an additional payment. They sent a third-party company to pick up my things. My sister was there with my inventory list and the movers left her a copy of their inventory list that they compiled as they loaded my things on the truck. Those two lists match (save for some small differences in wording - "plastic tote" instead of "plastic box", for example. Five hours after they left, I received a text message from the contractor, Integrated Moving Solutions, Inc, saying that I owed them an extra $686 dollars because they collected "10 extra items". When I asked what items they were referring to, they only said "suitcases and kitchen stools". Those suitcases and kitchen stools were on my inventory list. When I contacted Long Distance Movers the next Monday, they said that I signed off on a Binding Moving Estimate that contained a very different inventory list on Oct. 4. This is a complete lie. They had my inventory list on Oct 3 and I can't be held liable for them not transmitting that list properly to their contractors. Update: Hilarious, now they are claiming I reviewed the wrong business (see below). The names on the contracts and the engagement letter my lawyer sent them back in 2017 prove otherwise!.
