This company has failed me during one of my worst moments, where I had to be rehoused due to circumstances beyond my control.
To begin, I had to pay roughly £160 for a basic flat move. The driver who shown up was rather rude and didn’t communicate with us well, mostly on his phone chatting to… well who knows? We did our best to communicate with the driver, and had all our belongings packaged well beforehand to make the move as easy as possible for everyone.
While moving our items, we had to repeatedly ask him to help us move them (my mum is pension age and has a disability, and had to move heavy items down the stairs). When he finally did move the items, he was very careless and damaged fragile items (which we warned him to handle with care). It was a rushed job and he couldn’t care less about our personal belongings.
The driver then loaded the items into his van incorrectly, despite us asking if they are properly secured, as the way he loaded them didn’t appear secure and we assumed they would get damaged in transit. He assured us they were loaded correctly even though it was obvious they weren’t, and reassured us they would not get damaged in transit.
What a surprise. When the items arrived at our new property numerous damages were evident. I have since contacted AnyVan for compensation and as expected, they lowballed me on their offer of compensation.
I have made this company aware I will be seeking legal action and I encourage anyone who had the displeasure of using this company to do the same.Read more
The same van also was used for our vendors, who scheduled pickup for 11am- rather than going to them first, they arrived with us early and tried to pressure our vendors into storing our belongings before we even had keys, despite the fact we repeatedly told them about the situation.
The van was also very dirty, marking a number of our belongings, with damage done to several of our boxes.
Really unhappy with the customer service, who were more interested in the £80 upcharge than our experiences with the driver.
They explained it had been passed on and someone would be in touch to discuss with in 5 days. I then noticed a refund of £50 in my account made without any discussion. They said that this was a compensatory payment for the lack of packing. I said this was not discussed as promised that I didn’t consent to this as a resolution and to stop the payment as it was insufficient. then later refused a refund saying this concludes the matter and I have asked for my complaint to be escalated but this appears to have been ignored. This was after numerous email exchanges and their incorrect info. I have also sent my complaint to Angus Elphinstone, ignored. Are you happy making money this way?Read more
When it came to move day they didn't arrive in their promised slot, then promised to arrive later. Eventually once they'd missed their third slot, (and I was already moved across to my new place) they said they couldn't do it today but would try again in 2 days time.
Shocking experience, they truly do not care about moving your stuff, only taking your money and playing you like a fool.
If you get a higher quote from someone else, just save yourself the stress and pay extra. AnyVan are NOT worth it.
