Getamover Reviews 107

I completed an online request for quotes, indicating on the appropriate tick box, that I required dismantling (of the 2nd-hand bed that I was buying on eBay.)

A company then phoned me, quoted me, I accepted their quote, they asked for a deposit which I paid using my card - concluded the deal - and THEN got a text message, wanting to charge me an additional £100.00 for the dismantling.

Called the company straight back, and they refused to refund the deposit, saying they needed 5 days notice of cancellation (despite the move being two days away, and having only just arranged the move within the previous hour!

Contacted Get-a-move, who were not interested. Said it’s none of their business (despite the fact that they were the middle-man, who either failed to pass on the job request accurately, or else who list unethical traders on their website.)

Stay away! Entirely stressful at a time of great stress.

Really unhappy with my experience. The website promises a hassle free experience, and trusted removals companies, yet when I had a terrible experience with the company we picked (who also refuses to respond to my complaints), Getamover's answer is just a "sorry" and "we can't change the past" 😕

This company employs criminals. We were contacted by "Jolene Porter Clearance & Delivery Dept, Get A Mover (Address in Blackburn)" who was employed by Get a Mover (logo on invoice). We transferred money only to then be asked for more money when the removal was cancelled the hour before it was due. This was reported to HSBC who confirmed it was fraudulent and returned the money. Get a mover never got back to us to accept liability.

advertised my moving job on getamover, easy & effective. Job done.

Good service. Needed mover at short notice. Getamover gave names of 2 companies, only one responded. Got quote from Butlers removers via Getamover. Quote reasonable and service very good. Would use Butlers again if need a mover. Staff very pleasant and helpful, nothing seemed too much trouble.

Thanks to Getamover we got several budgets in two days, just in time for our move.
Everything was fine thanks to this service.

To start with I had offers but requesting a lot of money I was not prepared to pay for. In the end I managed to get a much lower price and the service was fantastic from beginning to end.

I had no experience or knowledge and this site gave me quick links and quotes from a variety of local companies. They were much better value than anticipated and the service proved good.

A quick and efficient moving experience.

I was seeking a removal company that could accommodate my particular moving requirements.
Through getamover I was offered a choice of companies and found a very professional company that I was very happy with.

An excellent service
I contacted Getamover to quickly identify a removals firm available to move my daughter's belongings from one house to another at very short notice. A company was highlighted and I was able to read their reviews posted on Getamover. I contacted the company directly and they were extremely helpful. The move was successful and I would use and definitely recommend Getamover to others. Thank you, Getamover!

Great service. Good follow up

Easy to find multiple companies to give me a quote for what I needed.

Crap lead generation company. Avoid.

Asked few times a quote, never got back to me. After more than a month, I've received a feedback request and status update of my move.

Service allowed me to get 3 quotes from different companies. Very useful when navigating in a field of which I don't know much about.

VETTING PROCESS IS A LIE, SCAM REMOVAL COMPANIES ACTIVE.
If I could give 0 stars I would. As per the below review, we too were scammed by DX Removals which apparently are a vetted company by getamover.co.uk. Paid our invoice and they didn’t show up. Thank goodness that Trunk Logistics came to our aid 2 hours later. They are not registered on company’s house, their “office” addresses are fake and do not answer calls as soon as they have your money. What makes “Stefan” even more of unemployed troll is that he knew I was pregnant and couldn’t complete the move by myself. Getamover have not yet responded to my complaint which makes them just as complicit - stick with checkatrade.

BE AWARE OF SCAMMERS , Getamover recommended me a company called DX Removals which was a completely Scam . Dx removal took my payment and never collected my belongings. I spent the double in emergency expenses on the day of the removal to keep my stuff safe and have time to get
a new removal service. It has been almost 4 months and I have not been refunded and received compensation for this failure . I have not received any support or assistance from getamover so far to recover funds . They just apologized , removed the company from their data base . I do not understand why this company says they work with top, trusted, reliable companies if they do not check if companies are properly registered in the BAR association and relevant authorities and they cannot actually find anyone at this company themselves . The address seems not to even exist and it is impossible to get hold of this removal company . They have basically disappeared. This has been the most stressful experience of my life when moving homes.
I must at I have reported to authorities both companies .So I recommend not to use these two companies at all

There quote system is bad, they ask you to give details then they send your details to different companies which later spam you! Don't enter your details on their website, not GDPR compliant..

We moved house during the COVID 19 pandemic in May 2020 which left us to find a suitable removal company that were prepared to move us. My husband found Waters removals from Stafford and are now part of Getamover. Very dependable and even enabled us to leave them at one point in our home. An extra journey was no problem, courteous, professional, respectful of belongings. We recommended them to a friend who also very happy with their service. Thank you Olly - Roy Pinxton
