"Short Summary: Put old lady in danger by refusing to wear covid masks. Liked saying 'no' to requests. This destroyed the polite, helpful and responsive service from Peter in head office. Longer version: The person I liaised with in the office (Peter?) was very polite, helpful and response. I cannot fault that part of the service. On the day the van turned up on time. Unfortunately everything was too much trouble for the 3 men that came with the van. The first alarm was that the men refused to wear masks even though they were moving house for a 96 year old lady (!!!!). They seemed to have no thought of keeping her covid safety in mind. They were also super quick to tell me what they couldn't do. When I asked them to move a medium sized pot plant, they said 'we don't do that'. When I asked them to take the back off a sofa 'we don't do that' They did the basic service efficiently enough, but were very quick to say 'no' enthusiastically when asked to do something even slightly out of the ordinary. In fact, 'no' was their favourite word of the day. But for me, putting an old lady at risk by failing to wear a mask. That was unforgivable!"
