Moving - GTA Toronto Moving (Quebec Incorporated)
I needed loaders to unload a moving truck. I found this company on Kijiji and spoke with somebody called Jonathan who identified himself as the manager. We agreed a price of $550 for 3 guys working 4 hours. I was told that during this time they will do whatever we need. I fixed this price in a text message chat, and agreed. The guys showed up 30 minutes late, and presented me a with a contract with additional charges for stairs, service fees and heavy items which I was never informed about. The price effectively increased from $550 to $1028. I called Jonthan and he told me that these are their standard charges and I must pay them even if we agreed another price on the phone and in the text messages. And that I must pay the full amount in cash and immediately. He said that if I didn’t pay then the movers would leave. As I had to get the truck unloaded and had no choice, I finally agreed and went to the bank to get cash. The movers started working unloading the truck. After about 1 hour I returned from the bank and paid the full amount. 10 minutes later the movers simply disappeared without saying a word, leaving many boxes still sitting on the truck. I called Jonathan to ask what happened, and he claimed to be trying to understand what was going on, and would call me back. I never heard from him again, despite calling him and messaging many times. They provided me a with a receipt with the following information: GTA Toronto Moving Quebec Incorporated Tel 289-218-8216 [email protected] Also note that they collected HST from me and the receipt shows that I paid tax, but does not contain any HST registration number. As far as I know this is a criminal offence if they claim to collect HST and are not registered for HST or remitting the amounts collected to CRA. Also note that following this I discovered a news report about this company and their scams: *********************************************************************************************************** So this appears to be their regular practice.
