Dorsetgirl1 10 Posted October 3, 2011 Hi, Just thought I would post how great Pickfords were...great staff, very through and proffessional and were also the cheapest. Also, Pickfords will deliver the other side too so you have a continuation of service. Stuff not arrived yet but VERY happy with service so far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milliedog 10 Posted October 6, 2011 Hi did any of you get insurance!! Our move is being paid for and we are going with Pickfords but it will be 2.5% of the value of the items that we want covered! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoandJon 868 Posted October 6, 2011 We're getting insurance, but not with the removal company!! Letton Percival have been great so far, 1.3% is what they've quoted...

Guest Posted October 8, 2011 HI I am looking to book Pickfords as their quote came in the best and because, they are the only company I really know anything about. Just a cople of queries before I book. Their form asks for a delivery address, and you can't get a proprty until you are there... Can I book then arrange marine insurance with someon else? Thanks Sarah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoandJon 868 Posted October 8, 2011 Pickfords didn't answer my emails after they sent their quote, so they lost our business. Shame, but hey!

Carlos fandango 170 Posted October 10, 2011 We have booked with Pickfords but are in still in the process of moving...I will report here when we are all finished and moved.... Must say though.... one of the gripes I have is that everytime I called you always had to leave a message on the answer phone.....I never got a person answering the phone....this is even more annoying when my messages arnt returned so I have to call again and leave another.....never once got an appology when I did eventually talk to someone....good job their price was competative enough to outway their telephone service...for us anyway...

Guest fulcher4123 Posted October 10, 2011 Were got pickfords coming round 2morrow 4 a quote. had white and co round but never got a quote back off them or an email. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purpledonna 122 Posted October 10, 2011 Were got pickfords coming round 2morrow 4 a quote. had white and co round but never got a quote back off them or an email. That's interesting about White & Co as we've been chasing them to come round and view our flat. Don't think we will bother with them in that case. Subclass 100 visa granted 12th Sept 2011.

Guest fulcher4123 Posted October 10, 2011 We see them when we went to birmingham they seemed really nice. They came round no probs but not hear a thing since. So hoping pickfords are good as there got a place in norwich witch ant that far from where we are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
