Persistent Communication Issues with SDC International Shipping
My experience with SDC International Shipping has been consistently disappointing due to ongoing communication issues. Despite receiving an initial response and a promise of a quote, I have yet to receive any further communication or the promised estimate. Following the initial interaction, I made multiple attempts to follow up through emails and the chat feature, but unfortunately, my inquiries have been met with silence. This lack of responsiveness has left me frustrated and concerned about the reliability of SDC International Shipping's services. Effective communication is crucial when it comes to the transportation of personal belongings, and it appears that SDC International Shipping falls short in this regard. Unfulfilled promises and a lack of follow-through have marred my experience with the company. While I understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, a commitment to transparent and timely communication is essential for maintaining customer trust. As a potential customer, I am disappointed by the apparent disregard for my inquiries. I strongly urge SDC International Shipping to address these communication issues promptly. Providing a quote is a fundamental part of the customer service experience, and the continued delay is both inconvenient and unprofessional. I hope this review serves as a reminder for SDC International Shipping to prioritize effective communication with customers. As it stands, I am left with reservations and will need to reconsider my choice for transportation services. Additional Comments based on Company response: Thank you for your response. I'm troubled by your mention of maintaining a customer interaction log and the implied lack of response on my part. Clearly your response is an attempt to shift responsibility onto the customer rather than reviewing your own records. While I understand this might not be the ideal platform for such discussions, I feel it's crucial for potential customers to be aware of the situation. To provide some context, I submitted a quote request on 1/5/24 and promptly received a reference number for the web portal, where I provided detailed information on the move and the item list. On 1/8/24, I communicated with Marlene by email in response to her request for the item list; I directed her to the portal. On 1/9/24, Marlene contacted me again with questions, and I reiterated that all the information she requested was already in the portal. On 1/19, I reached out, expressing concern about the lack of a quote. Despite checking spam folders, no messages were found. Finally, on 1/25/24, I informed your team of my decision to no longer pursue a quote due to inadequate communication and posted this review on Trustpilot. Within a day, I received a quote, and was told it had been sent previously; no prior quotes or responses had been received since 1/9/24; no messages in spam. I want to emphasize that I have a trail of emails confirming that I had provided all necessary information and was awaiting a quote. While I understand communication challenges can occur, I find it concerning that you imply there was no response to your emails. Please carefully review your records, and refrain from deflecting responsibility for the lapse in customer service. I appreciate this experience occurring before any commitment to working with your company.
