I too was ripped off by Mayflower Movers in San Jose, CA. I was quoted $285 for 3 men and 3 hours to move from one house to another, less than 1 mile away. I repeatedly told them not to wrap, cause everything was in boxes, but that did not matter they wrapped it anyway, they even wrapped a empty close hamper!
When we reached the new location, that's when they came with a new bill of $1500, which I did not have. My house had just foreclosed and I was broke. So the Pittsburg Police was called, I thought, to my rescue, and all they said was let them take my belongings and take them to court. Needless to say that made the situation worse. I borrowed the money from a friend and was then told that I needed to write a letter saying, that i was Very happy with their services or I still would not be able to get my things, and I refused! They wanted reassurance that I was not going to sue them, since the officer said take them to court. Then my daughter showed up, and decided to deceive them, so she wrote the note when they were not watching and gave it to them (without my consent).
After they got their money they wanted to put my things on the street, and I picked up the phone to call the police again, so they brought it in the house. They tore my suede sectional, my dinning room chair, and put three dents in my new refrigerator. I have shelves missing from my book shelf my bed was not set up, my kitchen table is missing a leg, etc. Not only did they rip me off, their full service was terrible. There should be something that can be done to stop these companies from cheating people in need! So if there is an attorney out there who does class action law suits, you have my cooperation. People have enough problems with their homes be foreclosed, we don't need this also.
