Poor Customer Service

Their programme froze after I spent nearly an hour inputting all the necessary data, particularly as I own a motley collection of
vehicles. Their help line is not manned and the only reply I got to my appeals for help was that a "Dedicated Sloth" Would contact me to discuss the problem within 48 hours. 3 days later I am still waiting. They have, however, refunded my payment. Not a very nice experience when going through the trauma of a house move.

Hi Robin,

I'm sorry you've not had a great experience, we couldn't seem to see anything wrong with your move on this occasion.

Our auto-response message also outlines our working hours and we responded to all of your messages within our 48 working-hour time frame 😊🎉

Useless - Doesn't add any value.

Doesn't add any value.
Several providers are missing - Scottish Widows Pensions can't be that rare and no sign of my breakdown recovery service either ?
The level of detail allegedly required by DVLA goes beyond all reason and is surely no quicker than notifying them myself. As there is no way to "save for later" pending researching some of the gazzillion bits of data they demand, I've had to abandon the process which makes it worse than useless as I will now have to contact the individual providers anyway.
This is a good idea spoiled by a hopeless implementation.

Thank you for your feedback. We're actively expanding our provider selection and working on including more services like Scottish Widows Pensions. The detailed DVLA information requirement is for security and verification purposes. We're committed to improving our service and appreciate your patience as we grow.

Please do drop us an email so we can identify you and help with your account 😊

Best wishes,

Brilliant idea, fantastic service

I was recommended Slothmove by my conveyancer to help with address updates. I used the service last week, and the journey was very straightforward. You can see your updates in a dashboard, which I thought was nifty; so far, I’ve had updates from most of my companies - I genuinely can’t believe it’s that easy. One question, though, can I add an update that I missed or is it too late?

AVOID AT ALL COSTS-DATA BREACH

Slothmove incorrectly updated my address and sent my driving licence to an incorrect address, which they now have no record of. Therefore I am left with a mess of organising a new driving licence with my personal data sent to unknown persons.

Hi Frances,

Thank you so much for reaching out.

I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience in your SlothMove. We hold ourselves to very high standards. We are a small team with a big mission to remove the stress of moving home. Genuinely, we never want to fall below the high expectations of our customers.

Please know that we take your experience and the accurate handling of personal data very seriously.

From your account, I can see someone investigated your complaint yesterday after you emailed with a comprehensive breakdown and next steps.

We have never had this complaint before. Our system has successfully updated many driving licences without issue. If anybody has a different experience, that is an absolute priority.

We hope we can make your experience a positive one.

Best wishes,
SlothMove

Sloth Move are useful up to a point…

Sloth Move are useful up to a point (they came recommended by a conveyancing solicitor, which is good, as he deals with people moving all the time), but... they sent me an email saying 'you might've forgotten to complete your Sloth move', after I'd paid - bit worrying. They corrected this a few minutes later.
And they don't cover some major providers when it comes to changing address. For example, my bank, NatWest (pretty well known!) weren't on their list, nor were my mobile provider, O2 (also, pretty well known!).
Ultimately, I managed to change address for some providers, but not all - so I'll now have to change those addresses manually.
It may cost more, but a Post Office redirect would've covered all of my providers.

Hi there Nick,

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review 😊

We're working really hard to add more companies to our service for you to update your address with.

As a new, unique concept in the UK, onboarding large, established organisations is a lengthy process 😅

The Post Office Redirection service is helpful - but, unlike SlothMove, won't update your address.

If there's anything else I can do to help, drop me a message from your dashboard messenger or an email to hello@slothmove.com 😊

Best wishes,
Anna 💙🦥

Fast and relevant help

I appreciate the fast feedback to any queries I have in the chat facility. The responses have been helpful and reassuring.
One of my selected companies was missing on my homepage and an agent is trying to sort it out.

Hi there Kelly,

I've just looked into this for you and can see that we responded to your email outside of our typical working hours to make sure that you were refunded and resolved this within 6 minutes of you contacting us 🙌

If we have missed something please don't hesitate to reach out to us 😊

Goof to know: our system is set up to only charge your card once for a hassle-free experience. Hiccups can happen if the payment button is hit twice accidently 🙌

All the best,
Anna

Dream turned into a nightmare! (Updated!)

Edit: Update March 2024, I came back to say that while my experience still can't be described as 'stress free', I really do have to credit Slothmove with a top notch apology.

I was contacted directly by the company director, Anna, who offered me an unreserved apology and took full responsibility for making sure all of my details actually got updated, even while agreeing to a full refund. It's clear that while the system isn't completely foolproof and things do go wrong (horribly so in my case!), this company do actually care about setting things right, and I have rarely seen such a graceful turn around in customer service. I've got a lot of respect for folks who own their errors so thoroughly, and I'd be willing to give it another go in future as a result.

I would recommend doing things differently to me and signing up as early as you can ahead of the move, as it's a lot more stressful if things go wrong when it's already last-minute!

---
My original experience:

I'm on benefits partly because I struggle to deal with phone calls and admin, so a service offering to do it for me sounded like an absolute dream, but it has been nothing but stress.

First their automated form got a bunch of my details switched around, so the companies I was supposed to be leaving showed up as the ones I was joining. They fixed half of them when I asked for help, but then nothing happened for weeks and they simply stopped responding to my emails.
When I tried going back to the start of their help system, I was assured that one person was going to deal with my issue personally... but as far as I could see, nothing actually happened and then they also stopped responding.

It's been six weeks now since my move. Nothing is sorted, and now not only do I have to do it all myself, I have to explain to everyone why I haven't contacted them sooner. Absolutely my worst nightmare.
I'm genuinely considering seeking compensation for the mental distress this has caused me, because as a disabled customer I just feel completely taken advantage of.

Also, the advertised WhatsApp chat support that was mentioned several places on the website apparently doesn't exist. I was given the option of email only, so I have no other way to get hold of them.

Hey there Carol! 👋

We hope you're doing well ☺️

Our team reached out earlier today to advise that it appears as though you are providing your Driving License Number rather than the requested Photocard Number -this is a code located on the back of your card, to the bottom right 🙌

Once we can confirm the correct details our team will get to work on distributing your updates as soon as possible 🚀 🎉


All the best,
