I needed to Move my stuff from Kolkata to Bangalore, and talked to various movers. Agrawal was most expensive; all others quoted more or less same, Biswajit of Goel Packers quoted a very good rate.
One thing about Biswajit (Goel Packers) was that they never looked at my staff and quoted me on basis of my description of items.
I was not convinced and asked Biswajit to send one his men to see it for himself. They came, they asaw it, and reconfirmed the quote.
My misery starts from there. I cancelled all other packers, , gave the contract to Goel. On the day of the packing, Biswajot came and immmediately claimed that I have too many things, and must pay more!! (This after my insistence his man himself came and checked the staff before hand)
Finally, he charged 5000 more, and refused to take my flower tubs (even though I specifically mentioned that to them beforehand). After that, in Bangalore, their shipment was delayed. Items were broken. I paid extra for a 5 lakh insurance for breakage. Refused to honor insurance. Their insurance means one single guy will try to repair your items. If cannot repair, forget it!! My lampps sheds were broken. They cost thousands of rupees because they were high end fancy stuff. They just handed mr Rs 500 for the lamp shed (Remember, I purchased Rs 5 lakhs insurance by paying extra to them!!)
Never be fooled by the sweet talk to Biswajit of Goel packers in Kolkata. Never buy insurance from them. Never hire them for your move!!
