Hello, I'm writing…read moreto share feedback regarding our recent service, which was unfortunately a very disappointing experience. We were initially told to expect a one-hour delivery window between 3-4pm, and planned our day accordingly. Shortly before 3pm, we were informed the timing would shift to a 4pm pickup and closer to a 5pm delivery. In reality, the delivery did not occur until nearly 6pm. This caused significant disruption. Our building has a strict 5pm cutoff for deliveries, and we had to scramble to accommodate the delay. I had arranged coverage at work based on the original window and ended up losing additional time and income. The sellers also had to adjust their plans and wait around for most of the day. What was especially frustrating was being told--without acknowledgment of the inconvenience--that the only remedy offered was a $10 discount. We later learned that our job had been added at the last minute, and we were not actually scheduled, which helps explain the delays but does not excuse the lack of communication. I do want to note that the delivery team themselves were excellent--this is not a reflection on them. Given the nature of our work, we frequently require reliable moving services, including for art and mid-century pieces, and had hoped to establish a dependable relationship. Unfortunately, this experience has made that difficult. At a minimum, we would appreciate a more meaningful acknowledgment of the inconvenience caused, along with consideration of a partial refund or credit toward a future service. Without that, we would not feel comfortable using or recommending your company moving forward.

I was moving to a different unit within the same building, so just needed some "labor only" help…read moreand was recommended to Dolly. I used their online system, which I felt was convenient and straightforward, to book 2 helpers for 2 hours. I was immediately confirmed by Dolly but then also by the helpers assigned to me. They communicated to me primarily through text but on the day of the move they also called to let me know when exactly they'd arrive (which was ~30 mins later than the original scheduled time). As soon as they got to my apartment, they quickly and professionally got to work. I was helping alongside them so was able to observe how they handled my furniture and I felt it was generally with care (for example: they avoided banging into walls and doorframes). During freight elevator runs, we made polite small talk and they seemed like good guys. While it only took 1.5 hours and I booked for 2, I still paid the full $200 plus $20 each for tip. I would probably use them again if I had labor needs. Otherwise, for a full move, I'd probably go with a full-service professional moving company.

Repairs will cost several hundred dollars, and Dolly's "resolution" was refunding the delivery fee. This is not acceptable customer service. Use at your own risk.

The price is pretty reasonable, especially for 2 pests, and not overcharged as other companies. It comes with 2 visits, 2 weeks apart from the first. However, the on site experience was not as great as mentioned. Technician came, went to spraying right away, and it felt like he was in a rush. Did not really check what might be the cause of the infestation (would not be an easy thing to investigate, but we did not really see the effort to find the cause). We see a great reduced number of ants, but still see a few lingering around, not as concerned number as before, but we feeling better about the ants. Also, 2 weeks after the second treatment we keep seeing silverfish back even after the treatment and trap was applied (they mentioned the number might increase the following week/10 days after treatment due to them trying to leave the premises, or longer since the treatment is pet/child safe product and it might take a bit to work). After the 2 visits, extra visit/treatment will cost extra, even with some pests coming back. - Giving a 5 stars still since they gave me a full refund due to my dissatisfaction with the service on site. Treatment did not do as well to the my pests situation, but great customer priority, owning up to their words, and honesty overall.

I own a small biz & needed a time sensitive doc sent w/in a very short amount of time down to the loop. I first called a courier that I used to work w/when I owned a diff co. They & sev other of the "big guys" were called in a panic. I was either told no it was not poss or that it was poss but would cost an amount that I didn't feel I could even quote to the client. Then I went on yelp & found this co. Everything went perfect!! I will not lie I was scared of the worst but Nico reassured me all would be ok. He then had the package delivered by Mike one of his couriers way ahead of sched and then Nico gave me a follow up call on delivery. I was given a lot of payment options which I liked too. They were stellar from the start to finish! I am sold and will not return to the "big guy" co. I was using previously. I will be using this co. from now on. Oh yes, also meant to say that the cost was way better than other co.'s quoted and I felt comfortable passing on the reasonable cost to my client. read more

Wtf? Did these guys get worse or something? Called later in the workday (around 3) and they sounded absolutely pissed. Got my stuff... but I would definitely not say fast. Not sure if it's because they are located in what looks like Bucktown, but it was slower than I expected. They told me I had to pay some extra charge because I kept them waiting like five minutes (no more than ten) since it was already after my time of expectation. I called later to tell them this and they said it was over ten minutes and that it clearly states this charge online. I know it wasn't, but whatever. Lost my business anyway. read more

Was quoted $37 for a round trip to the Chinese Consulate. The consulate rejected my documents. I was charged over $24 for one trip. When I asked why I was charged over $24 for one trip, I was told "wait time" by Tom. I was never told there was wait time charge! Now that I have the correct documents, I've been asking for 3 days for a written quote again for a round trip. No one is responding. I've also called multiple times with no response.

I'm not saying the other reviews aren't genuine, but this was definitely not my experience. While the workers were clearly independent (not a corporation), they weren't nearly as fast as I expected (although I am from NYC and our couriers could just be different). Their communication on their http://courier-connex.com is awkward, and while they seem nice, I was charged overtime at 4 although their site claims 4:30. I wouldn't use again, nor recommend. Seemed like they're stretching for extra money. read more

Once they find one that works, they use it again and again. One of their old favorites brings together fake checks and secret shopping, and we've been hearing a lot about it lately. Here's how it starts. You get a check in the mail with a job offer as a secret shopper. You deposit the check and see the funds in your account a few days later, and the bank even tells you the check has cleared. Now you're off to the store you've been asked to shopat and report back on, often a Walmart. Your first assignment is to test the in-store money transfer service, like Western Union or MoneyGram, by sending some of the money you deposited. Or you might be told to use the money to buy reloadable cards or gift cards, such as iTunes cards. You're instructed to send pictures of the cards or to give the numbers on the cards. Fast forward days or weeks to the unhappy ending. The bank finds out the check you deposited is a fake, which means you're on the hook for all that money. How does that even happen? Well, banks must make funds from deposited checks available within days, but uncovering a fake check can take weeks. By the time you try to get the money back from the money transfer service, the scammers are long gone, and they've taken all the money off the gift cards, too. (By the way, money orders and cashier's checks can be faked, too.) The moral of the story? If anyone ever asks you to deposit a check and then wire or send money in any way, you can bet it's a scam.
