We spoke to ** who is the manager he came out and said he would have gotten back to us on the Tuesday which he didn't so i call back he came out was very rude and wasn't intresting in replacing anything or try to work with us on resolving the issue. He said that they can give us $100 back fir all the damage and i ask him if he was serious looking at how expensive and the excellent condition of our furniture you wanted to give us $100 dollars? I then ask for them to replace our boxspring which is new and still didn't want to do so mr ******* and said he will pick up our boxspring to have the board replaced and i said to him how are you going to replace the board that broken he will fixed it i said no you need to buy us a new boxspring and they still refused to do so they haven't been answering our calls or even trying to replace it please help us resolve these issues with the furnitures and crcked tiles in our entry way please.

    When I called to coordiinate our move a month in advance the office was so professinal and helpful, the estimate they gave us was ****** okay not bad,the day of the move they were suppose to be there between 11:30-12, no they showed up 2:15 .When the guy ask again what was going I told him take only the heavy furniture, he said oh its going to be more like a 7 hour job, we were told 3 to 3.5 hours.We said we can take the boxes , no they loaded up the truck with boxes so they had to make two trips. They said well we have to take apart the furniture and put it back together,, I said Dont put it together we can do that,thats extra time. It didnt help that only one of the guys spoke english so if he wasnt around no one understood anything. The office gave us a quate for supplies, tape,wrap etc... of ***** . on the final bill it jumped to ******. It was raining so they brought in 2 other guys and said we werent charged but how on earth did my ***************** from ****** to ******* !!!!!!!!!!When they called to say they were on his way they saiud their taking lunch first,they also took smoking breaks. If their not going to speak english they should at least read english BREAKABLE,GLASS,FRAGILE,,! They did put together a few things even after we told them not to, one which was my daughter bed which was done wrong,because that nite when she was sleeping it fell apart! They didnt have tools to take apart the couch so my brother in law had to run home to get his.One guy fell outside and got hurt so he left.I believe that "WSM" took advantage of us because my husband is disable and couldnt do anything.I will never use them again or tell people to use them.
