How the mighty have fallen

I am so utterly disappointed in this company. I had previous experiences with them in KZN and I was relieved to find a removal company that I can trust, they did a wonderful job. In complete contrast to that, I had a horrifying experience with them when they moved us from KZN to Jhb. They damaged furniture, did not handle it with care - I saw a staff member forcing stuff into the truck with his whole body. They were not able to move us on time and I found some of the Gauteng staff very tardy with a bad attitude. When I pointed the damage out to the team on arrival the answer was that they didn’t have time to wrap everything. I don’t understand that at all since the upload took an entire day (shuttling to and fro) and someone could’ve stayed behind to wrap. This move happened a couple of days before lockdown and in the light of Covid 19 I did not observe any safety measures taken whatsoever. This is not the worst of it, when I gave this feedback to the office, they rep**** saying that they could only pay out R300 because I declined taking liability cover. I actually didn't expect money, only an apology but on the mention of cover I looked back at my mails and found that I DID indicate liability cover on the form I sent. This is where it truly gets horrible. Sonja rep**** to Linda (obviously not realising I am copied) that I am taking a chance. I detest this allegation, she is in actual fact saying I committed *****? That I am taking a chance? For what, a thousand rand or some negligible amount? This is utterly disgraceful.

Hi Elmarie

I am obviously distressed to hear how you feel about the service you received from Execu-move.  Our exceptional service record and 5 star reviews on this forum, not to mention your very own past experiences using Execu-move,  would indicate that something has gone terribly wrong here and I would ask you to allow me some time to investigate this.

No excuse for bad service but I can add at this point that if it was a few days before lockdown, we were being faced with massively challenging logistical issues to try and service panicked customers who had to be out of, or into, homes before lock down, getting our staff back to their homes in CT  etc.  A time no mover would want to be faced with again, I am sure. 

With the offices in lockdown, I will get what details I can at and revert soonest.

Kind regards
Peter Theron
