In name of transporting goods and vehicles they carry out shear fraudulent practices. Rather than sending vehicles in carrier they drive it out to particular location.
I had hired(Associate Cargo Packers & Movers) for delivering my Hyndai i-20 car from Gurgaon to Mumbai in a car carrier. Car was picked up from my home in Gurgaon on 31st January in the morning at 9 am and was scheduled to reach Mumbai in around 7 days. It was delivered to me on 9th February at my office in BKC at night 7 pm.
While taking delivery, On the first sight, I found many dents below driver door. Some of the stuff in the car was also missing including tools from car jack kit which I mentioned while taking delivery. While driving it back to hotel, I felt uncomfort in driving and it was giving some minor noise also probably from engine. Next day, I had a short discussion with Mr. Manbir(Associate Cargo All India Customer Care Head) about the car and he advised me to take it to some garage for estimation of problems.
I decided to get my car checked on weekend. When I took it to Hyundai Authorized workshop, they after thorough investigation told us that the car has gone through and damaged by an accident and part of upper body has been repainted to avoid suspicion from naked eyes. Interior parts were temporarily reassembled with some Jugaad and noise was because of damage to those car parts. After investigating on my personal level I came to know that they drove my car and in between it got hit. I talked with the company about this, but got really negative response from their side. luckily I got some proofs(toll receipts and video footage) which showed that my car was in gurgaon only on 6th of feb and they drove it to mumbai by road. Thus I am able to register a case against the company.
So Beware of this company named Associated cargo Movers and Packers. Choose some other option for safe delivery of your goods and vehicles.
