  Our military move was set up through TMM and was an absolute disaster from start to finish. TMM does not care out the service members they are serving or the belongings we entrust to them. The main issues with the claim fall into three categories:
  
  1) TMM focuses on delaying any payout and building frustration to push service members to settle for anything instead of getting what they are truly owed. I tried multiple times to have a conversation about what was needed to substantiate my claim and was never told clearly. The requirements just changed with each round of correspondence. I finally gave up when information I provided was being ignored which was endorsed by the Claims Director and VP according to the email I received.
  
  2) TMM unjustly devalues your belongings to minimize their liability. They look at any item you have and find the cheapest thing that may looks similar and offer you a fraction of that value. Two examples, I had a custom made sailboat model and they provided replacement value for a cheap toy. I had a specific tool (model provided to TMM) and they offered replacement value for the cheaper model. For custom made table that the contracted movers put screws through the top, they refused to acknowledge to provide a guarantee that the item would be restored to the original condition and value.
  
  3) They have no respect for anyone's time. Multiple of their settlement offers expect me to go around and buy replacement hardware and install it at no cost to them. If a piece of furniture was shipped with all the hardware, it should be delivered the same way. I should not be responsible for buying parts or coordinating repairs for a full service move.
  
  For a move with FULL REPLACEMENT INSURANCE, I am being left with multiple damaged items and all the onus on my to deal with it. Please do bother to thank a servicemember for their service, because by the way you treat them it is clear you are not sincere.

  To Whom it May Concern,

  Our contract is through the Government DoD and we follow the required rules, regulations and guidelines set forth by the Military regarding 1) claims liability, 2) settlement process and 3) dispute resolution. The military members are required to submit their claim directly with the Transportation Service Provider (TSP), in this case, Total Military Management (TMM). If after receiving their settlement from the TSP and they do not agree with all or part of the settlement, the member has the right to request further review of disputed items through the Military Claims Office (MCO).

  *** ********** submitted a claim for damaged household goods on March 25, 2023. TMM had the items inspected and presented a settlement offer. *** ********** did not agree with the offer and submitted a rebuttal. Upon receiving TMM’s response to the rebuttal, he opted to transfer all of his claims to the Military Claims Office. As per the regulations set forth by the military, TMM is not permitted to engage in direct negotiations with the service member once a claim has been transferred to the MCO. TMM is in compliance with all requests from the MCO’s office and will continue to work with their office to resolve *** **********’s claim.

  If you require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly. We regret *** ********** had a less than optimal experience and we appreciate his time and feedback to suggest improvements to our processes.

  Respectfully, ***** ********
  Sr. Manager, Priority Claims *********************

  I relocated from ******* to ********** and was compelled to use this company. Although the shipment arrived earlier than expected, the problem lies in the significant damage caused to my belongings. Firstly, they disassembled my transported sofa but failed to include the necessary screws for reassembly. Secondly, one of my items arrived in a broken container with missing components. Lastly, most of the electronics I shipped stopped functioning, including my high-value items: a $900 full keyboard and a $4000 Gaming PC. Despite my attempts at troubleshooting, such as checking connections and power supply, I couldn't get the PC to turn on. I filed a claim, but after several exchanges, they denied it along with other items. Their denial reasons were inconsistent and flawed. They initially claimed the item wasn't on the packing list, but I pointed out their error, prompting them to reopen the claim. Later, they denied it again because it wasn't listed on the high-value sheet. They labeled the PC as an old defective unit without any evidence and stated there was no mishandling. The money I invested in replacing components for the PC has now gone to waste. It's clear that this company mishandled and neglected my items, making it evident they're misusing the government's funds. They take advantage of soldiers by dishonestly describing items and refusing reimbursement, except for the cheapest items, to maximize their profits. The military should thoroughly investigate this company and make a better choice for their service members, as this company fails to fulfill the terms of their contract and is responsible for damaging personal belongings.

  During our move from **. We had a washer machine that was a bit old, but it was still active with no problems. I also had a desk that was in perfect condition and no issues, along with my filing cabinet. Upon the move when we were settled in our military home, we noticed somethings. The first thing we noticed was that our washer machine had a hole in the drainpipe, and when we tried to run the machine, it was damaged. We got an estimate quote on the washer machine and the inspector clearly stated that it was old, but the damage was from the movers. The desk was also damaged upon repairs with a hole poked through one of the boards that will not make it able for the us to install the desk and my file cabinet clearly looks like someone tried to break into it.

  Hello, I'm military and my household goods were loaded on a truck, but the movers (**** ****) left a couch behind. They said they would schedule for it to be picked up on Monday, but no one contacted me. I reached out to ****** ***** at TMM, Inc. but she didn't provide any information and wasn't very helpful. I'm selling my house on Tuesday and I won't have access to it anymore. I would like to file a claim for the cost of the couch, since the movers abandoned my furniture. They never followed up with me. I reached out to Ms. *****, and **** **** when I didn't hear from them, and they haven't sent me a time.

  TMM was tasked with moving our Household Goods to **** ********* *** During this move the movers they decided to use damaged our brand new bed-set through careless handling and packing. We filed a claim via the process to be reimbursed the value of our bed. Per the contract and guidelines outlined to us through the claims process via the military and TMM they have 30 days to issue payment once settled. TMM will has not payed us and continuously ignores calls and refuses to pick up phone calls. Its over the 30 days and still yet to have received payment. No one ever answers the phone at this establishment when going through the military options on their phone line. Per the contract they are over their time limit to pay the settlement. I need help ensuring this company stops abusing military families and ensure we get paid what we are owed. My families GBL number is ***********

  We have spoken to the service member, , and advised her that the settlement check for her claimed items was
  issued on 11-29-22 and sent to her via USPS.  Member confirmed that she had not received the check.  She also confirmed that the mailing address
  we have on file is correct.  We have
  requested an immediate reissue of the settlement check for tomorrow,
  12/20/22.  The reissued check will be
  sent via fed ex and tracking information will be provided to the member.  Reissuing of the check resolved all of the
  member’s concerns.
  
  If you
  require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

  I got a phone call about schedule the delivery of my home goods from my previous base. I’ve left several voice messages about trying to schedule it. No response from them. I’ve called 10+ times the holds times are in excess of an hour each and at the end they say no one is available. I’ve called the minute they opened as well and all their lines are busy. No response to filing complaints.
