Reviews...

These are reviews just in case anyone feels like searching the internet to find out more about particular companies that we've used in the last little while.

Iggy's Restaurant: As we moved from Utah, we were most saddened to say goodbye to Iggy's of all the restaurants we were about to lose. They have marvelous burgers, free fresh bread and chili water, mmmm... nachos, and their FRIES! Oh my gosh their fries win for the best fries I have ever had!

Oasis Moving: We used this moving company based out of Nevada and had an almost deplorable experience. We used some plastic storage bins as boxes and they all came back broken. We had three pieces of furniture ruined. Boxes of ours were thrown into our new apartment and I could here the broken glass inside rattling around even though it said fragile across the box. They didn't come when we were told they were coming but they were a day early rather than a day late which worked out sort of better for us. The quote we got originally was too low apparently because we ended up paying close to double that price (which wasn't cheap to begin with but we went with them because their customer service was so good) Lesson learned. We'll ask for references from other customers next time (hopefully there wont be another cross states move for us anytime in the near future!)

Stockton to Malone Honda: So, once we got everything figured out with the car and had to go through all the fine print of our agreement on our car we found out that Stockton to Malone had cheated money from us in just about every way they could including raising the sticker price on the car! (We didn't know this until we really looked through things because they wouldn't make deals with us based on the price of the car, they only wanted to tell us what our monthly payment would be) We were very upset about how we were treated as we went through the process of returning warranties and Gap insurance and it took us forever to get that money back and then even then we got copy back on what had been returned to us and they WHITED OUT our gap insurance like we never asked for it back. I'm pretty sure that's illegal to do on a signed document. So, we had to go call and go back in again to pick up a check for that.

Murdock Hyundai: So after the fiasco with Stockton to Malone, we still needed a second car, okay so we need a reliable car that would take driving in CA to Ryan's work everyday. We bought from Murdock Hyundai in Orem. Beware of internet postings that aren't very specific. We called in asking to drive their 2008 Elantra that was still new and not used so that we could get their 100,000 warranty but an almost used price on it. They told us they had it but that someone put money down on it to keep it saved but ended up buying something else so we better hurry and come in. We showed up ten minutes later and they couldn't FIND the car we asked for and we couldn't talk to the guy that on the phone told us the car was there. Seriously, four days later they call us back and say they have a car for us to test drive, that they finally found our car that we asked for. It's not the car we asked for! THEY NEVER EVEN HAD THE CAR WE SAW ONLINE! They had to drive this similar car down from a Logan dealership!
Luckily buying went a lot better this time. They didn't even try to pull the same stuff that Stockton to Malone had and we were triple checking all the paperwork this time. They didn't charge one extra cent out of us for anything ans we got them to go down on the sticker price.

We've had a bad time with moving companies and they haven't even moved us! Looks like we are doing it ourselves since they don't even show up. They are full of excuses from our experience. Hope your stuff is good for the most part. And hey, let's see those new couches or did you not get them?
