Watch out for this company

Josh was who i talked to. Quoted me $2900, which i had mention for 800 cu ft and he agreed. 2 day before the move, QA called to confirm what i have which he quoted $6701 for 941 cu ft because josh didn’t put me as 800 cu ft, but 567 which later i called josh about, but he denied ever have that conversation. QA finally drop the price down to $4860s for 767 cu ft of items which i measure and gave him the numbers and between the conversation i was threaten by them that they would cancel my move if i don't sign which they had my $1000 deposit which they claimed non-refundable. I was told they can drop the price further if my stuff decrease between now and moving date (2days after). I threw away my 3 seater sofa. Sold my 7 piece room set which “includes king size bed frame, head board, 2 night stand dresser, 1 tall dresser, 1 large wide dresser with mirror, and 1 bed bench” and measure the night before the move and knock my stuff down to 600 cu ft. On the moving day. The mover came in, i told them i took a-lot of large size item off for a price change. They say they won’t change the price, but instead they quoted me $7200 for the move. They refuse to count or measure my item. I tried calling vanity van line, but they wont pick up, until i finally sign with the mover then vanity van line finally pick up. The $7200 they charged ($600 which was the packing material which was prepaid, but apparently they charge differently and added the extra $600). They also changed the contract of 15 step stairs to 7 step stairs. Yes for every 7 step $75 extra. Vanity van line assure me that they are going to make the mover do the item measurement once they get to the storage instead of measurement by how they load the truck. A few days later i called vanity van line about this situation. They didn’t know what i was talking about and there was no note mentioning of this situation until i explain it to them. So they didn’t do anything after they assure me of what they going to do. They told me to email them of my complaint. I emailed them my complaint and called them several time. Each time in the call they kept saying they are working on it but no result after a week. And my email, they denied my claims and never mention they are going to make the mover measure my stuff. They did nothing at all until i file complaints with the BBB. After i file with the BBB and i called them, they were rude, saying we are not going to talk to you since you file with BBB and there nothing to talk about. The result for this company is i was baited $2900, put in a non-refundable deposits of $1000. Threaten by QA between my move of cancelling my move with my non-refundable deposit of $1000 for the price of 4800 and have to add another $1200 in deposit of non-refundable deposit. Total $2200 deposit. On final pick up day, they change the price again to $7200. If i don't go with it, i would lose that $2200 deposit. My stuff not being moved and loses $2200.They put you in a situation where either you accept their price term or not being able to move and loses $2200.A completely bait and switch scam. Please watch out for this company.
