MoveCorp

I would like to express our sincere thanks for the professional and caring way in which you carried out our recent move to Italy. My sister raved about how good you were when you moved her from her house in Cambridge to America and could not recommend you highly enough and I am glad to say that she was right. From the first contact I made in March to the arrival of our belongings in Turin, the service was exceptional. Even having to delay the move for several months after a problem with our buyer I still felt that the firm was understanding and was committed to giving us the best service. Good old hubby missed all this as he had to start his new job in May no matter what so it was probably better that we handled it. Brilliant service by a brilliant company.

We used Movecorp in June 2012 to move from Newquay, Cornwall to Sheffield and I am glad to say that they have not lost their professionalism and pride of carrying out a good job. We used them two years ago and I could not believe that we got through to the same co-ordinator Elisia, the same lads turned up to move us and the price was only £95.00 more than we originally paid . The whole move was flawless, arrived on time, away on time, everything delivered safe and sound, no breakages and the price was the price the same as before. Absolutely brilliant service.

Would like to take the opportunity to express how impressed we were with your company after carrying out our recent move from Greece back to the UK. Our belongings arrived back in the UK on the promised date and time, good old mom phoned to tell me, and as you were aware that we were no returning straight away we will check them when we return. Although I have no concerns that everything will be fine and another part of your work will have been carried out superbly. It has been a pleasure to deal with Movecorp and listen and see people who really care about their customers. We would not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and family alike.

All wne t well to start with. A good price, on time pick up, well packed. They put into storage as its a shippment to australia. They managed to lose a box, but sent a different one. But there is more, whilst in storage they renumbered every box in the shipment. They also repacked some boxes, it sounds dodgy, suspect theft as only stuff of value was missing. They still haven't told me the box is offically missing yet. They expect me to claim on the insurance I took out, we will see.

The above "Pick Up and Delivery" does not allow me to show that the collection was from Val d'Isere in the French mountains to York. In May 2010 we made a snap decision to sell our property in Val d'Isere and had to asrrange removal of all our furniture and effects within two weeks.  Movecorp were superb.  Despite it being impossible to get a large removal van up the mountain, they arranged to ferry in smaller vehicles to the bottom of the mountain, and miraculously kept to an extremely tight time schedule. They then stored the effects for over a year, before arranging a perfectly on-time delivery earlier this year, with everything neatly packed and negligible breakages. At all times their approach to problems was highly professional, and nothing was ever impossible or too much trouble.    .

I decided to use Movecorp as they were cheap and because their salesperson, Rachel has a good telephone manner and seemed to know what she was talking about. I paid 550 to ship my belongings (boxes of clothes) from Spain to Vietnam. The price was too good to be true. Moving day came and I waited inside all day to no avail, it was a no show. This was a stressful experience as I was due to leave the country 2 days later to move to my new home and I had to leave my things behind as movecorp refused to come the following day. Movecorp offered little in the way of explanation but I'm guessing that as they sub-contract the collection work to a Spanish company something went amiss there to stop them from collecting. They said they could arrange it for another day and as I had little other choice, I agreed but obviously as I had already left the country, I had to be reliant on friends to look after my things and to be there for collection. Communication was painstakingly complicated, as I wanted to know times (approx) of collection and they just kept saying they were unable to tell me as it was an "all day service"- obviously they were having communication problems with the company they sub-contract. They failed to come the second time because it was a public holiday. I already knew it was a holiday but I thought (as anyone would) that as they had already agreed to do it on that day, that they must be working, only to have a friend wait in all day and for them again to not show up. I called the next day to see what had happened only for them to say "yeah, aparantly it was a public holiday". Duh, I already knew that! I agreed a third and final time to let them come and collect and again, with no explanation, nothing. This time I didn't bother to find out why, I asked for a refund. The only good thing about this whole experience was that my money was refunded without issue. After reading some of the other reviews on here I was quite worried that I was never going to see my money again. Quite seriously- avoid- this is one of the worst companies ever.

Service cost: £550

The service that the company provided from the first stage of getting a quote, packing, collection and delivery was absolutely amazing. My wife was quite worried about our belongings being moved around 2000 miles plus by other people as we had always self moved before. But she accepted the fact that I was not going to drive a van/lorry to Madeira, packing and unpacking to boot at my age and enjoy it. Better still your whole teams support, service and understanding together with your professionalism made the whole move effortless and quite enjoyable. Add a price that was we feel was exceptional for the service provided and you can be assured that you will definitely be the first and only company I use in the future.

I think the adage that you get what you pay for is in this case very true ie cheap = cheap and shoddy service. I paid a total of £750 for my move from Manchester to Sitges in Spain. The collection date was agreed as the 18th September and they sent one driver to collect the contents of a 2 bedroom apartment. I therefore had to help him load all of my belongings onto the truck, talk about DIY removal. In their emails they stated a delivery time of 7 - 14 days which instead was 49 days in total. Disgusting. My belongings indeed turn up, undamaged, a day later than promised. They were supposed to turn up on the Tuesday and instead arrived on the Wednesday. I would never use Movecorp again and I find it difficult to believe that there are positive reviews on here. I did indeed get what I paid for..cheap and shoddy service.
