Bait switch bait switch. I had a long discussion with Sam prior to placing order. He assured me his quote was accurate. Said for a higher price he could guarantee immediate pickup but my car would ship in under a week. I agreed to $700 and gave a $100 deposit. I heard nothing for about five days, then received a voice message saying if I wanted my car moved there was a driver in the area who could pick up within the hour for $800. I wasn't ready to be there in a n hour nor did I want to pay $200 extra. I called Sam and again he assured me there was no problem but only a driver trying to fill his truck at the last minute. I reminded him of our agreement and what he said. About a week late I received a rather rude voice message. If you still want your car moved us back, driver wants $850. I didn't call back. So the gave the order to this driver anyway who called. We had a long conversation about these tactics and they were very nice. Since I had now waited almost two weeks I allowed them to pick it up. Since then I learned that there was a zero percent chance of that car shipping to Phoenix for under $900. So obviously Sam lied, his dispatch lied and they took my money not caring of the car actually shipped or not. Bad part is I had another carrier I wanted to use for $900, someone that obviously wasn't full of crap, but Sam had sweet talked my wife into this great deal. So my message to all. Avoid this company no matter what. Sam you're a liar. Not the money but the principle. I have money and also my integrity, not so much in your case.

This review is completely inaccurate and filled with false information. This customer booked his order on 04/02. Our customer service department made numerous calls to him, trying to confirm all the details of the transportation. Mr. Kydd made no effort to return our phone calls or emails. At this point we placed his order "on hold". Finally we received a phone call from Mr. Kydd on 04/22. We re-posted his vehicle and received multiple calls from drivers. We attempted to contact this customer each time with no response. We again placed the order on hold. Mr. Kydd called back finally on 05/06 at which time we kept him on the line and called a company that had called to pick up the vehicle just a few days before. At this point it had been over a month and the rates for this route had increased, something we had absolutely no control over. Mr. Kydd did not have another "carrier" to pick it up for $900, he had another broker quoting him $900. We had a company pick up AND deliver his car in 5 days once we were finally able to get a hold of him. We tried to resolve this issue with him and refund his money. He did not accept our offer. Our company had done nothing wrong and even offered to do the move for free. His car has been delivered in Arizona.
