      Bravo delivered my personal belongings today, 9 days past the original delivery date. They moved our stuff from California to Arkansas. When the truck arrived, they would not open it until I paid them in full. They were pushy for cash, Zelle, or Venmo. I gave them some cash and the balance on a credit card, where I had to pretty much sign my rights away. After that, they opened the truck, and the crap show began. Damaged E-Bikes, Damaged Select Comfort Bed, Damaged toolbox, along with several other items.

      My brand new in-box bedroom set pieces were missing, along with our third bedroom set. My pressure washer is also missing, along with several other items. I know this won’t be resolved anytime soon, but I will be taking the time to see this through by any and all means possible. The owner Ali, told me today he is a small business, and he needs to get paid, and I can relate to that. Now what about the customer that has to spend thousands of dollars fixing and replacing things that his company stole, lost or damaged. I will never, ever hire another moving company ever again! Their own driver said he would never hire a moving company. That says it all right there; I am not a one-off, as I can see by all the BBB complaints.
