    One Source Van Lines was pushy, unprofessional, and unhelpful in their business. When asked to have extra time to review the cost I was told if I didnt accept it that second the price would go up. Moving company had 1 star ratings across the board. I brought this to their attention and was told it was like playing the lottery and sometimes things turn out good but sometimes bad too. I spent thousands of dollars for that?? I also tried to update my inventory list to be 100% accurate and the man who called me to confirm said he didnt want to update it because it was more paperwork and he just wanted to make sure they didnt need a semi truck. Then when the movers got there they said I used 500 cu ft vs 460 I was quoted because they never updated my inventory list. Thankfully it wasnt much more but still cost more. The moving company was very late and I couldnt get ahold of them and tried One Sources after hours customer service. Rang and rang and went to voicemail twice. When I brought this to their attention the customer service agent insinuated I didnt know how to use the phone properly and that my story was wishy-washy on calling them. My delivery sucked too the driver was late again and had only one other person. The mover yelled at me and my family, other residents, and my landlord. He blocked people from getting on the elevator and put items in front of other apt doors. He dragged my furniture items through the parking lot and also scratched many of my walls and broke my bed. The company also lost a piece of furniture too. When I called One Source after the fact the only thing they cared about was the after hours customer support not working. They offered no resolution or to even try and contact the moving company to address my missing item and many damages, or even the irate delivery mover. Id hesitate to use a broker in the future and I would caution others to NOT use One Source Van Lines for their move. In hindsight, I wish I had never used them.

    Hello,

    We are very sorry to hear you had a poor experience with the move. When reviewing our company online, we are 5 stars on review platforms and A here on the BBB. We are sure where the customer saw ****** rating. There is indeed another One Source out of ** which is not **.

    Our customer service team is available from 10am to 6pm EST. This is gone over with customers directly after booking and also in our emails that are sent out prior to the move, which is the rights and responsibilities email. Outside these times, customer will receive our after hours team. Like most companies, this is a 3rd party service that will email management in the event of an emergency. This team does not have the ability to address matters on-site. 

    When reviewing a file from ****************** it states the following-

    Qa done taking a few items off but adding a floor lamp and a couple more boxes... Told him this is coming out super close and could do minor onsite adjustments. Gave pickup payment options and let go. 

    When there are adjustments on-site as to adding items, this does influence the cost to increase. 

    Like most movers, we cannot guarantee pickup or delivery dates due to traffic, weather, or unforeseen circumstances. We can only provide windows. We are sorry if the driver was late for delivery. 

    If broken/damaged items were incurred, we will be happy to send out the claim's information, so the customer can file a claim with the insurance carrier. Furthermore, we have our dispatch manager digging deeper to verify the level of service that was provided to the customer as to the above complaints of how the furniture was treated. We will advocate on the customer's behalf and for what we can to obtain compensation from the carrier if the work was performed on a less than par level. 

    In the meantime, if further assistance is needed, please reach out to our customer service team during normal business hours, so we may assist with any matters needed.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I said the moving company had all one star reviews, not you. You do tout 5 star reviews, but in fact on another website it says that they removed lots of your positive reviews because many originated from one IP address and seemed false to boost your ratings. So I dont believe you actually have that many glowing reviews because theres plenty as bad as my experience. I had no complaints about being charged for 500 cu ft vs ****************** my original complaint. And yes I got the correct customer service number I am saying your company you contracted out to didnt answer multiple times. That falls back on you for not quality checking who youre using. Also, I also understand that there are times estimates arent correct on timing. However, I expect to be notified and I expect your company to not hire them again even though Ive seen other reviews about the moving company stating the same things. Im glad someone is doing a deeper dive because I feel as though I should be compensated somewhat for the absolutely terrible experience. I also believe whoever the customer support person who said its like the lottery should be re-trained. No business should be telling their customer to just expect 50/50 chance of good or bad when theyre taking thousands of dollars for a service. Had you provided me with a quality mover I would not have walls dinged and scratched, furniture broken, and items missing. I expect when I use a broker that they will find me quality movers and will treat their customer right, you have not. 

    Sincerely,

    Brody

    I dont know exactly what it means for clarification. As Ive said One Source Van Lines was the broker for my move and hired an unprofessional and 1 star rated moving company. They were also pushy and lied to me about the process. I was also left in the dark with One Sources customer service who never returned my calls and told me that this moving process was like playing the lottery and thats the assurance I got. One Source refused to update my list of items so then it was not 100% accurate for the moving company and I incurred more charges on the night of pickup. One Source was also not helpful with me regarding any communications to/from the moving company they hired. Theyve never contacted me after my horrible move to discuss the unprofessional and mean behavior of the driver, the damaged furniture and walls, or the missing furniture pieces.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    As I discussed in my previous responses, I called your customer service team multiple times and they were wholly not helpful. In fact your customer service team is responsible for me getting charged more by the moving company for not updating my list and also telling me the wrong footage for a long carry fee. I was told multiple times by customer service it was ***** yet the contract says 75ft and there was disparity. Also, Ive only ever communicated with one person on this team when Ive called so I am unsure if there actually is one. You have not advocated on my behalf whatsoever you have not even called me back about my complaints and its been 2+ weeks. I was told upper management was going to look into it and call me, where are they? If you really cared about doing whats right youd compensate me for the issues (which are beyond minor) and apologize for the terrible service your company has provided me. I have not received anything close to appropriate help or services from your company.

    Hello,

    The customer states that we never updated the inventory list. ******** from Our customer service department called for this exact purpose, to go over the inventory one last time. Customer only made minor adjustments. We only know what the customer is telling ** as to the inventory being moved. As stated in the contract, It is the customer responsibility to provide an accurate description of the items being moved. In the event it is not accurate, it will be adjusted at the price per cubic foot that was agreed upon.

    Furthermore, our contract clearly stated what can cause overages, see below exact verbiage from our contracts-

     

    If Necessary For Your **************** Services And Fees May ** Applied:

    The packing of delicate items (televisions, mattress covers, glass tops, or delicate items, etc.) 
    Any additional packing or special crating (if not already listed on estimate)
    The loading of any bulky items (kayaks/canoe, motorcycle, large safes, piano, ATV) 
    Full packing services are available if needed. If a full pack is purchased, One Source Van Lines will coordinate all labor and materials needed to professionally pack all household items listed. This includes all boxes, furniture packing, and delicate/fragile items. If additional household items are added at the time of pickup, then the total price for full service packing will be increased and adjusted by the guaranteed rate provided. The customer will receive a new written agreement at time of pickup.
    Shuttle services can be provided if necessary. If circumstances prohibit a semi-trailer to get close to the property for loading or unloading, a shuttle truck may be needed to complete the service. This can be arranged for a minimum charge of $300.
    If there are more than one flight of stairs (up to 10 consecutive steps), an additional fee of $75.00/flight may be added.
    Long carry (first 75ft free). Anything after 75 feet will be re-adjusted by the ******* at $1.25/Foot.
    The standard delivery timeframes are based off the **** (First Available Delivery Date) the customer marks while completing the bill of lading at the pickup.  If the **** is outside 30 days from the day of pickup, then the carrier has the right to charge for monthly storage costs.

    We are here to assist, however, taking action to harm our companies reputation prior to bringing the matter to ***************************** first, as stated in the contract, is not the best way to seek compensation.

    At this time, there is no refund available to the customer. **low, we have attached the contact info for the carrier. If the customer would like, they can reach out to them.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    Obviously your company was never going to help me even if I emailed you. Phone calls werent enough so certainly emails wouldnt have been. Upper management was supposed to reach out but have never and I suppose they will never. I do not accept any response you are giving on this matter as it does not address any issues, youre merely defending your inaction. ******** did call me but said it was a lot of extra time to re-write the contract with my inventory list to be accurate. As I have said MANY times I am not saying I shouldnt have had to pay the movers more but I would like my inventory to be 100% accurate (as your contract says it should be) so I know exactly what Im paying when I move. Also, I have reached out to the moving company and started the claims process but it doesnt negate the fact that you hired inadequate, unprofessional movers on my behalf. I, the customer, shouldnt even be in this position because I paid your company to find me a quality mover and ensure the process goes smoothly. Additionally, the fact that you put in your contract that were supposed to email you and call you before putting a review online only furthers my suspicions that this type of experience isnt rare with your company. I am putting this out here publicly so hopefully future customers can be better informed about your lackluster service and responses.

    I reached out to One Source Van Lines on April 7th 2023 at 12:30pm to get a quote. I mentioned that it was still uncertain I'd need to move for the possible new job on the specified date, so the representative told me they would extend the cancellation period until April 14th for a full refund. This time frame worked for me so I placed the down payment of $1,425.48 via eCheck. On April 13th, it was confirmed that I would not need to relocate for work and I called One Source Van lines customer support to cancel services.They said that the eCheck hadn't went through on their end and told me to check my bank statements to see if it in-fact went through. If it did, their billing team would assist in a refund. The following week I noticed the money was debited from my account, so I called the customer service line to inform and they told me a member of their billing team would be in touch with me. I waited for a callback from April *****th even though I left voicemails and sent emails every day checking on the status. On Fri April 21st 3:30pm, Billing answers my call and says they were waiting for me to send documentation saying I declined the offer of employment to move the refund forward. I called HR from the company I declined employment from and requested a letter stating such. I didn't get the document until Sat April 29th because the HR worker was out sick. I immediately forwarded this to the billing team at One Source Van Lines. I called Monday May 1st at 10:49am to ensure they recieved my email with the attachement, no answer and no callback from my voicemail. I get a text from Billing the following day asking if I sent it, I reply "Yes" and I reforwarded it to speed things along. Now I'm waiting for the Billing Team Manager to "Review" my supporting documentation. I feel this process has taken way too long and I've recieved very poor communication from everyone at One Source Van Lines. I just want my money back since I cancelled prior to the adendums deadline.

    Hello,

    It appears that the customer is currently in the process of finding resolution with our billing department. There was a stipulation in their contract in which documentation was to be provided by a certain date. Seems this documentation was not provided in time to satisfy the addendum placed in the contract.

    When I talked with **** S on the phone initially he never mentioned that I needed to provide documentation stating I declined the job offer and no longer needed your services. On April 13th (one day before extended cancellation deadline), I called your customer support to cancel and they assured me that everything was squared away and billing would proceed with my refund. Once I found out I needed the document, I immediately reached out to the company, requested the document, and sent it to your billing ***** I've tried to follow up multiple times since.

    I tried to hire One Source Van Lines LLC and immediately they were extremely pushy, offering deals that were suspect and repeatedly calling and texting to make sure I knew that I had to have it done then, immediately. At any minor question or request they would threaten an unusual 200 dollar fee, act extremely rude, and then call me three or four times. In my contact with them in all of one day, I have been called roughly ten times, each time trying to get me to keep going with the company and saying that I would be in the wrong if I did not. Despite me cancelling the service, they are still attempting to charge $1000, and their contract also seems to violate the Consumer Review Fairness Act, the contract says all deposits and refunds are void if I tell other people I have had a negative experience with the company.

    Business Response

    Date: 04/11/2023

    Hello,

    We are very sorry to see the customer feels this way, what was discribed is not our intention when assisting families on a long distance move. 

    In this case they called us on 4/6 to move around 4/10. Most of our customer reserve moves ***** days out. This is done to lock in lower pricing and also allows the moving company to plan the routes appropriately. Furthermore, we had a cancelled move on this route and were able to fill it with this customer move. When potentially booking cancelled routes, they are extremely time sensetive. These discounted routes are open to many moving coordinators who can potentially help their customer save money by utilizing the option. We apologize if this come over as pushy. 

    When reserving a move with us, the contract offering a 72 hours cancellation window. This means if the customer cancels within the first 72 hours we will refund 85% as we hold 15% for processing and administrative fee's. After this time, the deposit would be non-refundable. In addition, the contract also states if a customer books a move with 7 days of the 1st available pickup date, the deposit is non-refundable. This is done being that last minute booking need to be dispatched as soon as possible to ensure the move goes smoothly.

    We hope the customer can understand where we are coming from as a moving company.

The resolution agreement basically states, by accepting the offering we have come to an agreement and resolved the matter.

    THEY rescheduled 3 times for pickup date,also were supposed to pack the kitchen stuff for ** since its more delicate and was a part of the service initially agreed, but seemed the movers werent aware(the office never told them) anyways we paid the pickup charge online through a link the movers sent, after they left we discovered many thing left in kitchen cabinets that we now have to throw out since we cant take them across the country with us Now to delivery, we had a temporary address for the delivery in ********* since we didnt have a place yet,but a month ago we got a place/new address for delivery and let the office know to change in their system,WEEKS AGO still in the same city, they delivered to wrong address because again the office/company ***** at communicating, the driver called us and we gave the driver the correct address.They said forms of payment cash or Zelle, no link this time(weird) so my husband and I sent the money in 2 parts since from experience we know ***** has a cap on large amounts, both transactions went through and my husbands said it would be available for them within 1-3 days. WITH CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND ALL, the movers got the notification also but the company rejected that form of payment and basically said send the $500 again, we dont have it so we contacted ***** and my husbands bank directly and they both said they couldnt cancel to send another $500 since the money WAS ALREADY SENT TO THEM, it will just clear fully within 1-3 days but we have no access to that money anymore since its already sent to them.We called one source to let them know and they did not care at all.They said the only option was to hold our stuff and charge another 600!So ultimately we HAD to send our payment double!!Just to get our stuff delivered. I hope we get the first payment back (the one thats 1-3days) and were handling all of this over the phone across the country, OneSource is a terrible, stressful, unprofessional company to work with

    Hello,

    This move was reserved within 2 weeks on the pickup window which was to take place directly between Christmas and New Years Eve. As this is a military move, we were to pickup on a base which in some cases can be challenging to gain access at the gate. It appears the first attempt, the carrier did not have the strict requirements to gain access, due to this unfortunate situation the carrier had to pivot and come back the next day with all the proper documentation to be allowed on the Military base. 

    Leading up to the move, the customer received texts, calls, and emails to ensure all proper expectations were set and they understood their responsibilities as a customer. When it comes to payments to the carrier, they all require cleared funds, cash or money order. In some cases they will accept, cash app, Zelle, Venmo, Etc. However, these types of payments needs to be acceptable by the ******* on-site and the funds have to hit on the spot just like cash or money order. Unfortunately moving companies have been burned in the past when they drive thousands of miles away for a check to bounce or a card to be reversed. This is standard for the industry. This is all stated in the Customer rights and responsibilities email. We also go over this verbally directly after booking during the verification call. 

    Finally, our job was to locate and dispatch  a licensed carrier to handle the move. This was completed and we followed all requirements set forth by the *** and our agreement with the customer. This complaint should be directed towards the carrier that the customer signed a Bill of lading with as that is the contract that bares the weight for the claimed issues by the customer. Anything outside of that directed towards One Source Van Lines is simple a defamation case in which our legal team will purse if need be.

As we stated prior, they claimed to not have received the payment from my husband *************************** to the driver *************************************, so they had me send $500 additionally from my account(******) since they claimed to not have received my husbands payment. ***** and my husbands bank both confirmed the payment from his part went through so  One Source needs to return that to us.

    I am more than happy to provide any clarifications. What additional information is needed? I have the amount total we had to pay and I also have the amount of what we actually paid and it was $500 over that the driver from their company said they would return to us. They owe us $500, they also stole my husbands weed ****** but at this point we just want the $500 they stole from us. As shown in all screenshots, I have collected all transaction numbers so One Source cannot deny receiving the funds. Its confirmed as the funds are not in our account, the bank confirmed it, and so did Zelle. If One source did not want to accept Zelle as a payment option, then why offer that service in the first place and no they are ignoring my calls. I just really need my money back as we are practically living paycheck to paycheck, we had to borrow that money same day because we did not have an additional $500 just sitting around. Please I ask that this gets resolved as they stole $500 and its not fair they can get away with it.

    Business Response

    Date: 03/24/2023

    Hello,

    We are the broker on the job and only took the deposit payment in the amount of *******. One Source Van Lines did not take any payments via Zelle, this was taken by the carrier. Yes, the carrier's do except *****. Zelle is an automatic payment that should go right through, just like cash app or venmo. When they go into a pending state, this is an issue on the senders behalf. This could mean they have limit restrictions that cannot be exceeded, or additional approval is needed. This was an issue on the customers end. The carrier does not have the ability to take the chance of it going through in a couple days after they've traveled to another state. This is why cleared funds are due at pickup and drop off. 

    Finally, this complaint is being directed towards the wrong company as we never took a Zelle payment. Below you will find the contact info for the carrier to reach out to them directly. We have also notified our customer service department to reach out to the carrier and investigate the matter.

    On September 13th, 2022, my girlfriend (***************************) and I entered a contract with **************************************************** fora cross-country move from ******* to ***********. The company took a $1000 deposit. Within 24 hours, we felt that the company's model, which charges moves by weight, was one that would not work for us in planning our move. We informed our sales point of contact of this, *******, in the first 24 hours. We have records of those calls to ******* where we initiated the process of cancelling our move. ******* insisted that we give the business one more chance to try and get things right. Even after the updated quote, which was provided shortly after, we still did not feel that we could proceed. So we asked ******* to please process final cancellation for our move. All of these conversations fell within the first 72 hours of our contract signing, which reflects the cancellation requirements listed on the company's website (Attached). We did not hear back from the company despite calling multiple times to call and check on our cancellation. The following week, a different representative *****, called to inform us that we had not followed the procedure for a cancellation, because we had not sent an e-mail to the affect. After reviewing the cancellation policy listed on the company's website as well as our contract for the move, we believe the company invoked improper terms to avoid returning our full deposit. The company claims that an e-mail is required. However, the cancellation policy on their website says no such thing. Additionally, the company was clearly aware of our desire to cancel, because we had called repeatedly, requesting if further action from us was required, only to hear back one week later and be informed that we had not taken the adequate steps to cancel. After offering only 20% of our deposit, the company tied the refund to a new contract requiring us to acknowledge full responsibility for the improper cancellation, which we could not accept.

    Hello,

    One Source Van Lines would disagree with the accusation the customer has made. Like most companies, we go by cubic feet, not weight. However can provide weight slips for military moves. We did everything we could for this customer to ensure they had a positive moving experience. Unfortunately, they were not willing to pay for extra items in the event they added inventory. We weren't sure why they felt they should not have to pay for additional space on the truck as if we would just move more items for free. When it comes to the terms of our business practices, these are the terms listed on the adobe E-sign, not our website. Most of the moves that we come into contact with reserve a move with the intention to move, very few cancel. In the event that a move needs to be cancelled, customers are to send an email to ***************************** as to cancelling, this way it is in writing and time stamped. This is very clearly outlined in our cancellation policy. Unfortunately no such email was sent by the customer. In effort to find common ground, we sent out a partial refund offer in which the customer declined and felt that would take further action through news outlets and review sites. This is simple defamation of our reputation and the BBB should take into consideration that we did nothing but follow the terms of our agreement as to moving services.
