The movers damaged my large-screen TV during the move, and it no longer works. I was disappointed with the lack of communication and the way this claim was handled.
Nick Andrews, Google
Left our mattress in the rain and then ripped it while moving. No apologies or attempt to resolve the issue.

After finally unpacking, I found that some of my boxes for the kitchen were missing and when I emailed the first time no one ever got back to me.
