  Warning: Unethical Practices by Home Delivery Link I, *************************, owner of IJC Logistics, want to warn others about the unethical behavior of Home Delivery Link. My experience includes:- Robbery of Funds: Failure to deliver services after payment.- Defamation: Spreading false information about my business.- Forgery: Forging my signature without consent.- Threats and Misconduct: Hostile treatment of workers and coercion tactics.- Managerial Misconduct at Partner Locations.My interactions with Home Delivery Link were marred by manipulation, coercion, and dishonesty. I urge caution when engaging with this company due to their history of unethical conduct. Taking action against them is necessary for resolution.

  We regret that ************** was unhappy with his company's experience working with our company. Unfortunately he operated his business with ** remotely, with workers in ***** and while he was resident in *******. As issues arose with his workers not having proper equipment or supplies, he was not available to resolve the issue with speed. We took it upon ourselves to resolve the issues so his workers could perform their assignments and be compensated for their time. We promptly notified him of those actions, to which he took exception but did not take steps to resolve the issue. We have since refunded him the money he was charged for that equipment (although that equipment was never returned). We have come to a financial resolution of ****************** disputed items and have heard nothing further from him so assume at least the financial aspects of his concerns are resolved. It is unfortunate that with this remote arrangement, timely action and communication posed challenges to servicing the needs of our clients and their customers and resulted in apparent misunderstandings of our expectations and procedures.

  I had a refrigerator delivered that I purchased on Costco.com. The fridge was delivered when I was asleep on 11/29/23. My wife stated the delivery guys had a hard time getting the fridge in and had to remove the doors. When they did they damaged my ceiling. The delivery guy told her he wouldnt get paid if it got reported. He texted her his phone number and a not saying fridge wall and said we could contact him and he fix it. We usually enter our house via the garage. I did not notice the damage to the door frame for a few days. I noted it in my review of the delivery. When I did not hear a response I filed a complaint. The company who handled the delivery said theyre not responsible because they driver didnt annotate damage on his manifest.

  We have been in contact by telephone with the customer. He advises he wishes to obtain estimates for the repair rather than accept a cash settlement. We are awaiting those estimates and then will arrange for the repair with the customer. We will update as that information becomes available.

  HomeDeliveryLink delivered a refrigerator I ordered from ****** on 11/9. During the removal of the old appliance their employees scratched my hardwood floors in numerous areas. The delivery crew acknowledged to ****** that they damaged the floors. Photos were provided to *************************** and he agreed to get quotes to have the floors repaired or refinished. I have made multiple attempts to contact *** since then and emails and voicemails and phone calls go unanswered.

  We were able to make contact with the customer late last week and an appointment has been scheduled for an inspection and estimate for repair of the floor for Tuesday 1/9. Once that estimate is received we will either arrange for the repair or provide a settlement to the customer, whichever the customer prefers.

  On Thu, Oct 12, 3:00?PM Home Delivery Link delivered around 5 pieces of furniture from Ashley ********** subsequently due to the lack of protection on the bottom of the furniture the ******************* scratched the wood floor when placing the left side night stand next to our new bed frame. Ultimately at the time the Delivery associated admitted liability, I was assured a claim was being filed, at the time I spoke to ****** and they informed me to take pictures of the damage, unbeknownst to me since I was working, I took pictures with good faith and sent them across to ****** who informed me the liability would be with Delivery home link. After a week the company contacted us and stated due to the differences in my pictures versus their pictures they would reject our claim leaving us out of pocket with a damaged floor. I tried to contact the person that sent the rejected claim letter stating that I would like to proceed with their pictures of the damage and sadly to no avail. Essentially this company has come into our house, damage the floor and rejected our claim to fix it, which is completely unacceptable.

  Contact has been made with this customer and a verbal agreement as to compensation for the damage has been reached. We are awaiting a signed agreement from the customer and then will be paying the settlement as agreed. We believe with this the issue has been resolved to the customer's satisfaction.

  I purchased a couch from ********************** that was delivered by their vendor Home Delivery Link, on or about July 6, 2023. We had the moving guys bring the couch in through the back yard into the ******* room, and they set it down in the room and scratched my brand new floor. The two movers / company disputes that they scratched the floor. Either the packaging or how they attempted to slide it gouged the floor.If my husband had not them to ************* it up, they would've scratched the entire floor. This is a newly installed floor and was in perfect condition prior to the furniture delivery. They are responsible and are being dishonest about disputing they scratched my floor and I want ****** or Home Delivery Link to repair it. Neither a representative from ****** or Home Delivery Link has reached out to even come and look at the damage caused solely by their movers. The only communication they've sent is a letter stating their guys said this didn't happen and they didn't cause the damage.

  We were unable to resolve this claim initially because of difficulties reaching the customer. We are now in contact with the customer and working to obtain estimates for the needed repairs. Claim will be resolved promptly once estimates are available.

  On November 28, 2022, I purchased a couch and reclining chair from **********************. On December 9, 2022, the couch was delivered late in the day. The two delivery men attempted to bring the couch in through the front door, in one piece. After watching the two men struggling under the weight of the couch, I commented to the men I cant believe they sent only two men to deliver this couch! I later learned from the delivery men who delivered the reclining chair in two pieces, that the couch should have been brought in, in two pieces as well. As the two men reached the front porch, the couch was dropped on the composite decking. The two men attempted to push it through the front door, causing damage to the decking on the porch and couch. (See Pictures). I contacted ********************** on December 10, 2022 ( the next day) and spoke to ******. He requested pictures, which I sent that day. On December 12, 2022 I received an email from *********************************** with **********************, explaining a representative from Delivery Link (delivery company) would be contacted me to resolve the issue. On December 19, 2022 I was contacted by ****** with Delivery Link requesting more information and pictures, which I sent that day. On December 23, 2022, ****** contacted my wife, with an offer of $200.00 for damages. I declined this offer and sent via email an estimated cost to replace the damaged decking. I have made multiple attempts to contact ****** via email and phone, and have not heard back from them.

  On August 27, 2022 furniture movers from Home Delivery Link attempted to deliver a sofa I purchased from **********************. While attempting to deliver sofa they caused damage to my property. An employee named *************************** reached out and asked me to provide pictures of damage and a check would be sent to me. I provided picture evidence and have heard nothing back since. It is been over a month now and I have yet to receive compensation and I have not heard back from ***** at all. I've called everyday since and each time I call I am told she is not in the office. I've emailed her several times as well and I have heard nothing. Either she doesn't actually do any work for the company or this is scam. Damage was done to my property by Home Delivery Link and I should be compensated.

  In response to this notification we have contacted the customer and confirmed the agreed settlement amount. Unfortunately the settlement notice was never forwarded to accounting for payment. That is in the process of being done now and a check will be issued to the customer next week. We regret the delay and appreciate the customer bringing the matter to our attention.

  We subcontract delivery services to independent contract carriers who are responsible to employ qualified individuals and to handle all pay, tax and related issues for those employees. We do not have any involvement in those pay arrangements and therefore do not know what services ************** provided  and are not aware of what, if  any, commitments were made by the subcontractor as to how much or when payment would be made.

  In the interest of trying to get the matter resolved, we did bring this complaint to the attention of the subcontractor and suggested they make an effort to reach an amicable agreement regarding any possible outstanding money due. As we do not operate or control the subcontractor's activities, we cannot assist further in this matter. All money due to the subcontractor for services performed has been paid to the subcontractor by HomeDeliveryLink.

  I ordered a washer/dryer in December. My delivery window was supposed to be from noon-4. Driver contacted me at 9:30 and said I needed to be there ASAP or they would refuse delivery. I had to leave work early, delivery guys left a 2 foot long scratch in my wood floor and damaged the transition strip into my laundry area. That was on December 30th. It is now April 25th and the delivery company (Home Delivery Link) driver has contacted me twice. Once to get additional pictures of the damage. When I asked if he needed anything specific in the photos (the entire room, measurement) he got frustrated and hung up on me. He today a week later (today) to tell me they can fix my floors tomorrow. When I asked if the moving company was planning on fixing my floors he said yes. I told him I wasn't comfortable having a moving company do the repairs and I would prefer to have someone who works on floors do the repairs. He got frustrated and when I asked what we should do try to work it out he hung up on **** was originally contacted by *************************** who works for Home Delivery Link. He was initially very helpful but has since stopped answering any calls or emails from me.

  Customer was contacted on 4/26 and notified we would be having a specialized repair contractor prepare a quote for the repair. The estimate is expected by end of this week. Customer will then be advised of the costof the repair and offered the option for a cash settlement or to have the company perform the repair at our cost.

  I ordered a table through ****** and they use this delivery company. The drivers walked on the table during assembly and threw heavy cardboard boxes at my fridge, scratching it. They broke my table when they walked on it. ****** has replaced my table but told me home delivery link should be contacting me about my fridge. They sent me a letter saying they are closing my case because I failed to contact them even though I called multiple times. I called the phone number they provided in the letter and nobody called me back. It has been over 5 weeks and ****** keeps telling me the company will call me within 24 hours and I have heard from no one.
