    On September 18th, 2024 Mini-Moves moved me and my partner from ******** to ***********. I was assured my belonging would be cared for, citing their experience and guarantees. My belongings were lost, damaged, possibly stolen to the tune of over $20,000 - though they were only insured for $14,000. Despite pictures and extensive documentation, Mini Moves has not rectified the situation and has not been able to find my missing items.

    Dear *****,
    We are truly sorry to hear about your concerns regarding your recent move. We fully understand how important your belongings are, and we have been in regular communication with you, providing updates throughout the entire moving process.
    Your items were picked up on September 17th, 2024, and delivered on September 30th, 2024. On the day of delivery, you reported damaged boxes to our **************** Team, and we promptly sent a claim form with instructions on October 1st, 2024. Two weeks later, you notified us of missing items, and we immediately conducted a search. Unfortunately, we were unable to locate the missing items. As advised, we encouraged you to move forward with filing a claim to address any damages or losses.
    On October 28th, 2024, we received notice from ***************** that you disputed the charges for your move, totaling $5,311.75. The next day, on October 29th, 2024, you filed a claim for damaged and missing items. According to the agreement you signed prior to your move, any claim for loss or damage cannot be settled if there is an outstanding balance. Please refer to the attached MiniMoves Terms & Conditions, specifically line 2e, for further clarification.
    We take your concerns seriously and will continue to review all the details of your case. Once the balance is settled, we can proceed with processing your claim and work toward resolving this matter as quickly as possible.
    Sincerely,
    ******** *****
    MiniMoves **************** Team

    I hired Minimoves for a move between ************, ** and ******, ** (move # *****). After various issues with the move, including the price being different than agree to, the movers showing up late, and no communication surrounding delivery, my goods finally arrived at the destination in ******. Numerous items were broken, including family heirlooms. The ****** movers informed me that the ************ movers improperly packed certain items and lots other items, such as furniture hardware and peloton pieces. I have attempted to contact minimoves on over 10 occasions, and have not received a response to date. I also have not received my move paperwork, which I have requested on 3 occasions. I have reached out to *********************************, the move coordinator, and her supervisor -- who I have called and email numerous times with no response. I am unable to file a claim because Minimoves will not send me my move paperwork and no one will return my calls or emails. I have over $2000 in damages and Minimoves is totally unresponsive. I am happy to provide photos of the damaged good and copies of the email outreach with no response.
