Scammy and Aggressive
Put in a request to a website Monday at 7:45 for a quick move across multiple states for a job (right under 2 weeks until move date). Within minutes I was called by Robert at Ryder Relocations. In about 3-4 minutes I told him our general inventory and the locations, to and from. He gave me a quick quote which I asked for him to email as he was the first company I spoke to and that I would need to talk about it to my partner. He nudged saying I needed to give him an answer at that moment which I tried nicely to ask for an email quote and my reasoning why I would not give an answer immediately. He kept pushing me and asked for me to speak to my partner while he was on the phone. He also sent me a text with his name but no quote. The call lasted 11 minutes which 6 of them were very uncomfortable and seemed scammy. Shortly afterwards I spoke to two other companies. Robert at Ryder tried to text again within 15 minutes of me getting off the original call with him. Still no actual emailed quote. He then text me aggressively that I needed to get back to him asap. It had literally been 17 minutes. Finally he text again saying it was my loss and he was just trying to help me. In total I received 5-7 texts in a 20 minute timeframe at 8pm on a Monday. This interaction was wildly awkward and very questionable while never actually giving me a written quote just pushing for me to give a down payment of $1300. I’ve moved multiple times and this has never been the process. Avoid this company and their scammy aggressive behavior.
