Moving Company Scam Alert
AmericanMoversDirect.com is a ripoff moving company.  I will explain why I feel this way in intricate detail.

First, they claim to be located in Wyoming at the following address:

5830 E 2ND ST, STE 7000 #7801

Casper, WY 82609

However, the Better Business Bureau has no record of said company.  Even after I told this company that I would go to Wyoming at this address, they said there is no one ever there.  They said they are just brokers.

I came upon this company by doing a search on the internet.  I called their 800 number and spoke to one of their representatives for about n hour.  We negotiated a charge of a little over $4000 for what would amount to a 26 foot truck, this charge included a couple of people to take my possesions out of a storage unit and then transport them to Oklahoma.

I took a picture of a check for 1/2 the amount and sent him a picture of it.  Something I shouldn't have done.  I believed the man at his word.  He sent me an econtract which I signed.  I had a very bad cold at the time, and didn't notice that what he really wrote was for the moving of only 824 cubic feet, a lot less than the verbal agreement.  He said that I would hear from this company for a few days.

I was going to drive back to Colorado to meet their driver and helpers to load the truck and let them in my storage unit.  I thought something was strange when I was texted by another person, who wanted to go over my inventory.

Why would they want to do that, when I had already intrically discussed this with the initial contact.  I told them I wanted my money back, as this wasn't what we had discussed, they said no.  They gave me an email address to cancel the order, something I did, but I never heard back from that either.   Then I get contacted by some driver who I couldn't understand do to bad english.  I told him I cancelled the order.  I have since contacted the Attorney General for The State of Wyoming via an online form.  I still haven't heard from that either.

So I'm out over $2000 and don't expect to see it.  So keep away from this company, they have no customer service, may not even be a real company, and they just take peoples money.
