DO NOT BOOK WITH AMERICAN POWER MOVING
I REPEAT
DO NOT BOOK WITH AMERICAN POWER MOVING
Read all the way to the bottom where one of the movers was ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY HURTING ME.
THEY ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!
I have never in my life dealt with more unprofessional people.
I only had an email confirmation (see attached)
I never saw a contract until it was too late.
When I called Mike, he confirmed $270 for 3 hours.
Period.
What he failed to tell me was that they charge $95 per hour after that plus tax.
I was wondering why the movers worked so slow.
They parked, waited in the truck.
Came up to my apartment to have a look.
Went back down to look for parking again.
They didn’t actually start moving until about 30 minutes after they arrived.
I got to the new apartment and waiting another 30 minutes for them.
I figured, they were being extra careful driving.
It wasn’t until they got to my new place that they pulled out the contract and showed me that I owe $600!!
What?
Excuse me?
What?
I called Mike and argued with him that I didn’t’ know this.
He never told me on the phone or on email.
He didn’t care.
He told them to lock up my stuff and take it to storage and they’ll delivery it when I pay.
I had no choice.
ZERO
So that’s why they’re sooooooo slow!
What a scam.
I paid the money and got in the truck and helped them move faster.
Had I known this, I would have shopped around.
I would have helped in the beginning.
I would have done something!
I’m a petite female. And I feel like I was faster than them.
In the end, I had a feeling they wouldn’t put my bed back together.
So I waited by the truck and asked them if they were going to put together my bed.
Nope.
They said I paid until 8 and it was 7:52.
I said, well both of you work for 8 minutes and put together what you can in 8 minutes.
He didn’t want to.
He said he didn’t care.
He wasn’t a builder.
SO I GOT IN THE TRUCK.
AND I WOULDN’T LEAVE UNTIL THEY GAVE ME MY 8 MINUTES TO PUT MY BED BACK TOGETHER.
I’m not sure why they took it apart in the first place. It’s basically just a frame and headboard. I don’t know why they just didn’t take the headboard off.
Oh I know why. BECAUSE THEY’RE SCAMMERS AND WERE SCAMMING MORE TIME!
I wouldn’t have minding putting it back together myself but I didn’t have instructions or tools.
So my only option was to ask them to finish the job they started.
I waited patiently while they called their boss.
Complained to me.
Told me they didn’t care about the bed.
You name it, it happened.
INCLUDING ONE OF THE GUYS TRYING TO CLOSE THE DOOR ON MY FOOT.
UMMMMM ----- THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED ----- HE WAS HURTING ME
But I didn’t give in, until they gave me the 8 minutes I paid for.
I REPEAT
DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM
DON’T LET IT HAPPEN TO YOU!!
