Challenges
Agent Sean was nice and answered all my questions. First time ever shipping a car. He indicated there would be vehicle tracking to monitor its progress which was very important to me. (We did not get this)I asked all the questions prior to booking with them: can we set a particular day and time frame window for pickup as my dad would be on one end and me on the other. I mentioned we would not leave keys in car for pickup and wanted to assure this company would offer personalized pickup/drop-off as well as a schedule 4 hour window. The following day after making a deposit, the agent called me up to say they needed more money as a deposit because they may have a backup driver collect the car, but he needed additional insurance. I refused as this was outside the contact terms. Whilst the total amount remained the same, I do not understand why more money was needed up front and how this was my problem. The driver texted my father twice and said he would be there before noon. At 2:30 I get my dad calling me up irate and pissed off that the driver now says he will be there at 3:30. My dad refused to wait. When he said to the driver you can come at 9:30PM, driver canceled. Sean was able to get a new driver the following morning and vehicle was delivered safely to us. In the end that is all that matters.... however wouldn't it be nice if contractors/truckers say they will be there at x time and show up at x time? Wouldn't it be nice not to have a dad call up on a rant about contractors inability to maintain a promised schedule and wouldn't it be nice for me not to have to take additional time to have vehicle rescheduled for pickup when I am at work. The agent was nice and tried his best, but for some reason there are factors perhaps outside his control that leaves me to give 2 stars. I would use another company if I had to do this again. It takes all hands on deck to have a superior customer service experience and for us, it was challenging.
