Hidden and deceptive charges:
When you make a decision to do business with a company, all you have is what they communicate...
We ordered a roll off, and chose GDC because their web site states that they take appliances and mattresses as part of their mixed load package. Because the cost of a mixed load is more than a construction load, logic would dictate the cost of the other acceptable items would be included in that cost. Further, we specifically asked three employees about appliances and mattresses in the mixed load during the course of ordering and setting up delivery, and each said it was acceptable; no one mentioned an additional cost - even the driver stated that appliances and mattresses were acceptable as part of the package, did not mention additional charges.
I received an invoice with additional charges for each mattresses and each appliance. Surprised, I called and talked with Dave, who only said it was a teaching moment. Yep, I learned about deception, dishonesty, fraud and not owning up to professional incompetence in the business place.
I have a screen shot of the site, and nowhere on the site does it state they will add additional charges for these items. Curious, there were no additional charges for my load that included other items listed along with the appliances and mattresses on their site. read more
