I picked this company because of "online" reviews but my experience with them to date has been a nightmare. I personally placed this order yet they did not put my name and number on the order as the contact person for the driver. This company NEVER contacted me when they picked up my car.
I've had to call THEM for any information regarding my car shipment. I've been lied to regarding delivery of my car. I was told the driver would arrived last Sunday- nothing- I then called them on Monday and Leanne again lied to me and told me that my car would be arriving THAT DAY- nothing and again no communication from the company or the driver. I emailed both Joanne and Leanne and told them I was very upset and expected them to call me and educate me as to what was going on. No phone call from them and no email from them. I called Joanne who proceeded to laugh at me and tell me I was being abusive. (Believe me, I did not cuss, swear etc.. all I did was tell them that they were not doing their job and not communicating with me etc..) I'm sure Joanne will try and tell you differently but God knows who's telling the truth here. When I tried to hold Joanne accountable for their actions and lies she hung up on me SEVERAL TIMES. I finally requested the owners name and phone number which they have NOT provided. They are incapable of dealing with any type of customer complaint, they don't try and work with the customer. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. After Joanne tells me that the driver (who has never called me) won't be calling me ever, I get a call from a Mexican man whose English is so bad I honestly could not understand who was calling me.
I had to piece together that the driver was broken down in IOWA. (now how could a driver in IOWA deliver a car in Seattle last Sunday or Monday?) So at this point I'm beyond livid. I've missed work waiting for a delivery all because Leanne lied to me and chose to lie to me rather than telling me the truth. So I'm without a car that's stuck in IOWA with someone who can't speak english with a broken down transmission and an auto shipping company that hangs up on me when I need their help and intervention who won't disclose the name and phone number of the owner. I hope everyone who reads this gets the picture here. PLEASE DO NOT CONTRACT THIS COMPANY TO MOVE YOUR CAR!! Learn from my mistake. Whatever their response will be to this notice I'm sure it will be less than honest so bear that in mind.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and please have a better day than I'm having today.

Have you ever heard the saying “Be careful what you say about other people - because you are usually talking about yourself” When you place an order with us, it is done online and YOU enter in who the pickup and delivery contacts will be. As you are well aware, the driver had mechanical issues. As for Leanne intentionally lying to you, why would she do that? What purpose does that serve? As for not responding to your emails – all your correspondence and mine are electronically recorded, date and time stamped in your file. Order 07/02/13 6:13 pm Philip, I am sorry for the misunderstanding. You are correct, the driver will not contact you for pickup. You are only listed as the delivery contact person. The driver will only contact David to schedule pickup as only David is listed as the contact for pickup. Everyone works and we understand. We NEVER ask a customer to take time off work. I am not clear why you felt that you needed to take time off work? I totally agree with you about the driver not calling you to inform you that he is running behind schedule. It is just common courtesy and I would be upset also. I have sent them an email and I will be following up with them shortly. I will be in touch once I hear from them Thank you, Joanne Parker Parker Auto Transport, LLC Order 07/02/13 6:14 pm Philip, As I was trying to explain to you before you hung up on me The driver will not call you for pickup because you are not listed as the pickup contact You emailed Leanne on 6/26 and she responded regarding your ESTIMATED DELIVERY. I am trying to educate you on the procedure is. For you to call me up and be abusive is uncalled for. After speaking with you, I understand WHY the driver is not calling you. Thank you, Joanne Parker Parker Auto Transport, LLC Order 07/02/13 6:37 pm Philip, I am also on my cell phone rolling down the highway. We were going thru a canyon where service was in and out. I chose not answer your call after speaking to you the first time. I did not feel that your abuse was warrant. To call me up and be so nasty and so hateful was totally uncalled for. I have never treated you like that! You are correct, you are the person that placed the order and gave us the contact and delivery information. Per your instructions, the driver was instructed to contact David L Schlafer. You are listed as the delivery contact only I don't think that you were intentionally lied to. Please keep in mind that we are dealing with mechanically equipment. Good example is I went to go to the store this morning and my battery is dead in my car. Break downs happen as much as we preferred that they don’t. This is the first that I am hearing about the truck being broke down. I spoke to one of the drivers this morning and he told me that he would contact you which he did. I am also not happy that to hear that he is broke down and not only did not contact you with status but he has never contacted me either. As for speaking to the owner = MJ Parker Trucking / Parker Auto Transport = M. Joanne Parker = owner - 480-628-0391 Please be advise that my employees have been instructed to refer you to me. I do not feel that ANYONE makes enough money to take abuse.
