Bait and Switch Price Increases! Scam!
Following the death of my mother, who lived in a different state from me, I looked for long distance movers to move her belongings here so my sister and I could go through them. I engaged MoveSafe when I spoke with Andrew. He was very well spoken, made many assurances, even gave me his cell phone number to call if I had any issues. He was very good at making me feel at ease. What he did not do, is explain that they were simply brokers, and would engage other companies to handle the move. I paid a 50% deposit of the quote he gave me to reserve the move. When the movers showed up, there was a lot of miscommunication already. They were from a different company, First Class Movers, and they immediately increased the price by almost $1,000. I was then told that they would not accept a credit card (which I had confirmed would be ok with Andrew at Move Safe at the time of reservation). Move Safe was able to get them to agree to the cc, but there would be a processing fee. When I challenged this, Move Safe agreed to refund me $100. I was then sent an NDA in order to get the refund. This was the second red flag. They also did not send adequate crew to load the materials and my sister and her husband had to assist with the piano. Once loaded, my load remained in limbo for several weeks with no promise of delivery day. Finally, I received a call at 7pm from the driver stating they would be delivering our load at 10pm. When I declined this, I was told I would need to zelle the remaining balance for them to wait. Ultimately, we arranged a time the next morning. When we got there- the price was again higher than agreed in the contract. Andrew stopped answering my calls, and the regular customer service people at Movesafe advised me to "just pay it to get my items". At the end of the day, our items moved through 4 different vendors and there was miscommunication and extra charges at every turn. Do NOT trust these people- they are the kings of bait and switch!
