Moving Service

We relocated recently from Switzerland to Australia. We thought Swiss Moving Service Ltd (SMS Ltd) would provide Swiss quality when we shipped our personal effects with them. We clearly got the wrong end of the stick! Swiss Moving Services Ltd is a small business that tries to do international removals. Therefore, SMS Ltd broadly depends on changing partners and you may never know who actually handles your shipping. Thus, our personal effects were picked up by a partner business of SMS Ltd. Except the SMS-shirt that the two men wore, nothing reminded that we actually hired SMS Ltd and not a random removalist. What was awkward was that only one of the men knew how to handle furniture and other stuff as the other man clearly needed a fair bit of instruction. SMS Ltd must have opted here for a cheap subcontractor. From the moment we touched ground in Australia, SMS Ltd dropped off the radar. Nobody felt responsible for the delivery of our personal effects from the storehouse to our new home. Not surprisingly, a massive delay occurred! When we finally lodged a formal complaint the situation got even more bizarre. Swiss Moving Service Ltd (which we hired!) put the blame on the partner business and the partner business put the blame on SMS Ltd. Of course, nothing of it helped to sort out the situation. After countless phone calls and e-mails, we eventually got hold of our personal effects. Long story short, we would never ever hire Swiss Moving Services Ltd again. SMS Ltd was unreliable, unhelpful and clearly did not seem to care about a happy customer.
