Vitriolic attack on my daughter for complaint about a missing electric door due to BCC European

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Since my complaint, I have received countless vitriolic and abusive emails from this company, who also reported to me they have" plastered me all over closed Facebook groups which I cannot access" in Cyprus, Alhaurin el Grande and Priego de Cordoba...attacking my good name, and, in the Cyprus case, placing me in further danger. As a fulltime carer to my elderly Mother who has severe Fronto-Temporal dementia, and many other neurological signs, and with no help, their attacks have elicited my decision to prosecute these two men, named as Brad Mathews and Mitchell Hawkins, for company abuse. I have three years to bring my case to the court, which is useful, as all my time is taken up in Carer duties. Such a heinous response to a rightful complaint, is more akin to the behaviour of criminals, than a company who describe themselves as " fully legal", yet who take their income in gbp, despite being fully resident for tax in Spain.

Unacceptable response to missing electric door

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Friendly staff....but when the most expensive item in my storage unit which they removed from the UK went missing...I have an inventory...this company ignores my emails and fone calls and states its the storage unit responsibility...Deannes of Llandudno Junction...Wales. Cannot elicit a response. Many othet items are missing. Advisable not to use this company

This woman is a pathalogical liar. She has every single one of her items.

She tried blaiming a reputable storage company and then us. She hits and mistreats her live in elderly mother (always bruised) and is nasty to everyone. Her husband kicked her out and now she is taking it on others.

Nasty person. Avoid.

Excellent thank you

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Thank you very much. BMC Euro just collected nearly 40 cubic metres from two storage companies in north Wales for me , delivering to both near Jaen and Alahurin, both in Spain. Great service from start to finish. Brad was lovely and Duncan a great helper. Mitch just great with the organising in the office. They put up with my fussing and changing my mind etc. 1st rate service above and beyond. Highly recommend.

Unacceptable response to missing shipped items

A very friendly and nice company...until the most expensive item on an inventory went missing. Then they did not want to know. Also several smaller effects went missing. DO NOT USE this company

Great Move - Thanks lads

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Could not have been any easier. To coin a phrase does exactly what it says on the tin. Great price. Great transit time. Helpful team with lots of useful info to boot. Will of course recommend and of course, use you again should the need arise, although very happy with our new home in Mallorca. Gracias

Perfect Move - Thank you

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
We have just moved all the way from Surbiton in the UK to Guadalmina, Marbella in the south of Spain. The whole move was so easy to arrange. I completed a form on the website, received a quote a day or so later which was much more competitive than the other 3 we received, and after a quick call with Bradfield at the office, we accepted the quote. It couldn't have been any easier. 4 weeks later, we moved our entire life from our 4-bed house to a 3-bed apartment and nothing was too much trouble even when we had to move a few items to storage. Thank you, Brad and the team. We will recommend you.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Thank you BMC. Your bunch of lads worked a solid 4 hours loading up all out tat and boxes in a professional and fun manner. Can't thank them enough. We are now well settled near Granada in Spain and loving life. The kids say hi and thank you for looking after all their toys :-)

DONT GO WITH THIS OUTFIT ! Be warned!!!

Their service was not good from the start - when they turned up 'nice as pie' even though they were A DAY late....their communication left a lot to be desired.....When they delivered to a storage unit some items were damaged, after contacting them regarding the damage, I got this reply........ ''Right *** I have had enough of you. I really don't care what you think of our service. You've been the worst customer ever. You are just a moaning, miserable, depressed human being, your wife would be best shot of you............jerk sums it up. What do you expect us to do about it? Want to take it any further? Be my 'f.....g' guest and see what happens!! This was sent from Michael Hawkins of BMC. This is not the response I would expect from a so called reputable company.

There is no-one called Michael working for BMC. This is a fake review trying to harm our company but without success. :-)

Superb large move

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
What a crazy but superb home move BMC Euro have just done for our family. We've moved from a 6 bedroom house in Sotogrande in southern Spain to our new home in Tyrells Wood, Surrey. After 3 full days with the 5 strong team wrapping and boxing our worldly goods all arriving safely and on time 4 days later on two large trucks. Despite our agitated and two headed approach to moving, the guys just got on with the task at hand in a super quick efficient fashion and putting up with both my wife and I. Thanks again Sergio, Jack, Stewart, Brad and Pete we are settling in well.

Great removal to Mallorca

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
From Newcastle to Mallorca the move went so smoothly. From the initial phone call and only having to pay a deposit, we felt quite assured about BMC. For such a long distance involving two ferries and with such a big vehicle, we were more than pleased with the price. None of our fears came true and nothing was missing or damaged. Thank you BMC, the lads that came to Newcastle were outstanding an a credit to your company, likewise the English and Spanish team in Mallorca. We will no doubt use you again as Debbie is heading back to the UK soon to buy even more stuff. Won't hesitate to recommend you to anyone we can. Regards, David

Fantastic move

I'm so glad I found you on the web. My move from Surrey to Marbella went really smoothly. I really can't fault you guys. Very friendly and professional. Collected and delivered as promised, no damage and you took away all the flat pack rubbish too. I didn't realise that there would be quite so much of it. I appreciate it wasn't the easiest of jobs too with lots of steps that I should have told you about. I've already recommended you to quite a few others so hope that you get some more work out from my removal. I hope to see you all soon too in Marbella so you can pop in for that promised bacon sandwich and some good coffee.

Very awful experience

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I was contacted by the BMC driver to explain my suitcase had been broken into by customs. When I contacted the head office to ask for insurance details, I received the following email: Jess Excuse the language but what total bollocks. How dare you presume how we should do our job. We have transported cases across borders for you and you STUPIDLY left a case locked. What on earth was going through your mind at the time is quite unfathomable. Why should we have a system in place for situations like this when 99.9% of customers are not so blatantly stupid. Stop trying to pass the buck! And you in no circumstances can claim on our insurance for a number of reasons. Firstly, owner packed vessels including suitcases are not covered. This is industry norm if you care to look it up. Total loss of owner packed items are only covered to £25 per item. Again industry norm. And any insurance claim is subject to a £200 excess. Slightly better than industry norm. If you feel your consumer rights are being infringed, then please fill your boots and report us or take legal action, whatever makes people like you feel better. We do, although very thankfully rarely, come across customers thinking they know everything about absolutely FA. Usually women. If you wish for the driver to deliver the bags today he will require cash up front. If you'd rather do this any other way please advise and he'll skip your delivery, we don't mind and will wait to hear from you. And in future, please be a bit more sensible when asking firms to move locked items from La Linea / Gibraltar where contraband and drugs are rife. Mitch Hawkins Senior Partner

This lady came from a squalid apartment in Spain which was very dirty. When we told her that her dirty old suitcase had been opened by customs she went crazy.

The stupid client LOCKED her case when it had to travel thru' customs. She had recently been left by her partner (no surprise there) and was really down on her luck living in such awful conditions. She had to leave Spain to get a new job and has taking it out on others. It always seems to be those that fall on bad times have to try to take it out on others.

Nasty client and I'm rather glad she's miffed. I hope she's had chance to have shower.

"Mitch Hawkins" or whatever his real name is has the correct attitude. You are at fault.

Yes. The lady is at fault but can't admit it.

Usually the case. Vile depressed single lady.

Perfect Move

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Have moved many times over the years and this one was certainly the best. Not one single breakage plus all collected and delivered on time from Perth in Scotland to Benahavis in southern Spain with a useful 4, day transit time. Crew very friendly and helpful. Competitive prices especially compared to the big firms (greedy corporates!) Would and will use again one day no doubt.

STAY AWAY FROM BMC REMOVALS MITCH AND BRAD!!

I understand how you must be feeling as I had a similar bad experience with BMC Removals myself this year. They failed to deliver all my goods and what was delivered had been tampered with. We suspected something wasn't right when we were told repeated lies by Mitch and Brad, they really know how to spin a yarn but get caught up in their own web of lies. Boxes were missing and a lot of our valuable items were also missing and all they did was try and lie their way out of it. The best thing you can do is report it to the Police and take legal action. This pair act like criminals in my opinion and need to be stopped!

Even after I had got let down by one of the bigger firms, BMC came to the rescue. They moved my family and I from Sheffield to Estepona in Spain at relatively short notice and actually a bit cheaper than the other company. Great bunch of guys. Great proffesionalism and humour on the day. Will no doubt use again. Thanks BMC. The Sheffield Lot!

We wish we'd never used them because they stole half our stuff and even replaced all our books with someone else's books that they'd stolen - if these are your books (mainly art books) please let us know. They also brought us a 4 man tent that they'd taken from someone else - so if someone has had their tent stolen by BMC European please let me know because we have it.

Alas, we also had a similar experience. What can be done to stop these crooks?

Now I will await the rude and offensive reply from ""anonymous!"

Guest

Had an almost identical experience to you.
