Arrived 4 hrs late without notice; an excuse; or an apology. Hired two med to
Work for two hrs and they planned to leave after one hr starting they had another job to get to. After arguing about it they refused to do the work necessary. Refused to assemble bed or dining room table. Refused to remove a bed in order to make room for the one on the truck. Had no tools to do basic work. (Screwdriver and screws). One worker spent most of the time outside on phone and smoking while the other one worked with me. Job was not completed. Jon, the owner of Stars and Stripes was unwilling to help the situation after sever calls to him with complaints while the helpers were still here and he left my third call go to answering machine. I would not recommend this company and would never use them again. The only decent conversation I had with the owner was when I hired them. Then he was very nice and promised the best service and assured me the pros would handle all my needs and be on time and work hard. The ordeal was a total nightmare. And yes. I’ve used Hire a helper before and had terrific experiences, left great reviews, and tipped the helpers generously. My experience with Stars and Stripes was horrible. The worst.

Mover's response:
Janet,
Im sad that you are so motivated to say unkind, and untruthful things about me, the crew and your experience. Since we accepted your job order less than 24hrs in advance ( and did NOT charge your the normal 20% additional charge), I called you to let you know the adjusted arrival time for the crew. The crew DID arrive in the window that I provided you on the phone. My crew advised you were indignat and rude to them the whole time they were there. I called you to attempt to pasifiy you and the situation and you immediately yelled and disrepected me and then hung up on me abruptly. Our crew takes PRIDE in our ability to be polite, hard working and professional at all time. You made that very difficult for everyone involved. Im sorry that you weren't completely satisfied with our services, like 100s of previous customers have been. I hope whatever you're going through works out in your favor so you can have a better disposition in the future. We wish you the very best

Helpers were to be at my place between 8 and 9 AM. At 9:30 I called Hire a Helper to find out why they weren't there. They didn't know and were going to look into it. I then called Jon at Stars and Stripes who told me the crew was having car trouble and were trying to get it resolved. I thought it would have been nice if they had called me, but was still hopeful it would be soon they'd be there. Heard nothing more and by 11:00 I began to look for someone local who could help as I had to be out of the house by 3:00. Long story short, I hired another moving company who came by 1:00 and moved me out. No one from Stars and Stripes ever came or even called to say they weren't going to make it.
Would not use this company again. I had to call Hire a Helper to tell them the movers had not done the job.
