I got this email from Chris, the co-owner of the Bekins agency in Portland:
'I pulled your 2009 file (K81786) and did some research on your move. I see that your delivery was not up to our Bekins standard and that your claim was left up in the air. Teresa Brown, Managing Director of Customer Care would like you to contact her to discuss a settlement. If you wish, you may reach her either by email or phone.
Please accept my apologies on behalf of Bekins.'
Teresa gave me the usual company b.s. about Bekins striving for quality, and the usual non-apology (ie "I am sorry that the servicing of your move has given you cause for concern"). 'Teresa Brown' and 'customer service' is an oxymoron.
But they DID give me $400.00 which is better than nothing and is all because Chris in Portland followed up. AND Chris is the first person, of all the people I've communicated with there, who actually took some responsibility and gave me a straight apology. So, if you are in Portland, consider Bekins, but make sure you talk to Chris.

As I was moving with my employer expenses, and Bekins had a tie up with my employer. Hence I had no other option. I packed my items myself neatly a... - read the full review
