These guys Affinity Auto Carriers are the scum of the earth. Their owner embodies everything that is horrible about the auto carrier industry and gives good brokers and transporters a bad name. Thank god for the carrier who brought my car, because they were excellent and really saved me.
First, Affinity gave me a quote, told me that it would be $1250 to ship my car, I said, OK, let me see what else is out there. They called back a few days later and asked for more details so they could write up an order, but assured me that it wouldn't be finalized until they found a trucker and at that point they would place the order and run my card. A day later after I read the reviews on them, I called and told them that I would not be using them. They said I had already placed the order and the contract was already finalized. The problem is, I never received a contract, never signed anything and never agreed to use them. I told them forget it, and that was it I thought, wrong. Instead, after I contracted another broker, they somehow sent a carrier to pick up my car on the same day the other broker was supposed to send a carrier and impersonated the other broker. Because I didn't know that this was the wrong carrier, I gave them my car. The carrier that took it was Geo Tiger...they are awesome, out of Philly. Upon learning of the issue, I called Affinity and told them I wanted me car back immediately. They said absolutely not, you can pick it up in Arizona, and if you don't like it, I'll have the carrier leave it on the side of the road or leave it in Mexico, too bad. This was the OWNER of the company telling me this. Because of contractual issues between Geo Tiger (carrier) and Affinity (broker), Geo Tiger had to pay Affinity $200 of the $1200 that I gave to them in cash. I had multiple conversations with Geo Tiger and they assured my car would be dropped off in Arizona and that if I had called the police it would complicate everything. They assured me that THEY were in charge of my car and would take good care of it. They did, they came through for me, car was in great shape on time and great work. Affinity on the other hand threatened me, extorted me, lied to me, cheated me and are overall the scum of the earth. When I told the guy that I was going to write a negative review, his response was that he would find out what company I worked for and write a negative review on my business. This guy and Affinity are the scum of the earth, NEVER use them for anything, they are thugs, crooks and horrible people.
