  DO NOT USE this company. They are Fraudulent. I sent them a deposit to have my vehicle shipped and they never even picked up the vehicle. I have been reaching out to them and have not received a response. I have already contacted another company so I would just like my $150 deposit back from this company.

  On 12/3/21 I received a quote from US Star Trucking LLC for $1,050 to have a truck delivered from MI to TX. I signed a contract that said it would be picked up on 12/7 and delivered on 12/10. I paid a $200 deposit. After I paid, my contact (*****) at the company kept saying he didn't have a driver when I asked what the status was (when he did eventually respond to my attempts at contacting him). Today (12/16) he emails me and says he might have a driver who can pick up the truck on 12/18 but is now asking for $1,200. I called the phone number listed on the company website because ***** never answers his phone or text messages, and rarely answers emails. The person I spoke with ****** said he didn't know why ***** is asking for more money and that he would get someone to call me back. If they couldn't do it at the agreed upon time, they should have told me before I signed the contract or paid the deposit. I still haven't received a call or communication about the truck being picked up or when it will be delivered. They took my $200, tried to charge me more, and still can't confirm when my truck can be delivered for the agreed upon price. This company comes off as shady and possibly fraudulent if they've got people trying to upcharge even after quoting and contracting on a lower price. I want them to either pick the truck up on Saturday 12/18 and deliver by Monday 12/20 for the agreed upon price in the contract, OR cancel the contract and refund me my deposit of $200. This entire experience with this company has been stressful, from the lack in communication to the dishonesty. Ref: XXXXXX-YU.

  Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2021/12/18) */ Hello dear customer, sorry for the inconvenience that our agent made, we are the broker company who is the middle-man between the customer and the driver company, the reason why the agent asked more from you was for the driver company, you know because of the pandemic and increasing the price of the fuel and Christmas is coming also, most of the driver companies do not work in this month, that's why the drivers have increased the carrier pay, then we just offered you the price that the driver was asking for, we are so sorry for that, if we can not pick up your car for the stated price on the contract, we will refund your money, our agent will connect with you soon, thank you! Consumer Response /* (2000, 10, 2021/12/21) */ (The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.) The company has refunded my deposit so I am satisfied. The manager reached out to me directly to resolve the issue. I don't think this company is fraudulent but they do need to properly train their employees.

  The company US Star trucking had made a contract with me that I signed and agreed too. In this contract I agreed to pay the price total of 1100 and requires a 300 dollar deposit that needs to be paid to the driver now that I pay for through quick books. After I pay the deposit and the driver shows up to pick the car up and I ask if he was paid his 300 dollar deposit. He informed me they were not paid anything. I proceed to call US Star trucking then they tell me the price is now 1400. I told them the contract that we signed was for 1100 and I paid a 300 dollar deposit so i should pay 800 upon receiving the vehicle. They told me there is extra insurance that they can't document for 300 dollars. I am concerned this company is not above board and they are stealing from customers most likely but the point is this company is not up to standard.

  Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2021/12/10) */ Hello dear customer, sorry for the inconvenience that our agent made, we are trying to resolve the issue on your favor, actually our agent have told you about it and explained everything why it's going to be a little bit more and you agreed with that also, if you wouldn't agree with it, we wouldn't book the spot for your car to pick up, we would just refund your money if you want or would hire a carrier for the same price for the next date, but you have agreed with that, so we hired a driver and your car has been picked up, we have already sent $300 deposit to the driver company, but still we are going to refund your $100 deposit from agent's pocket, so we are losing $100 here for shipping your car also, again sorry for the inconvenience, have a great day! Consumer Response /* (3000, 8, 2021/12/12) */ ***Document Attached*** Now that our business has concluded. It is important that I note the truck carriers try to raise the price again upon receiving the vehicle. All of the Russian drivers did not speak any English and proceeded to yell at me and Russian to pay them more money. I am active duty military personnel in uniform. This had to be the most unprofessional and disrespectful business conclusion I've ever seen. The contract terms were still breached and they demanded more money I agree to $1100 to pay total, however, US star trucking LLC decided that they would send me messages after our contract and try to raise the price after I already signed a contract for 1100 only. i'm not sure what kind of scams or insurance they're trying to steal from customers but however I would like to make sure they are unable to steal from customers again. I attached what we agreed too and the contract already. This company is untruthful and continuously try to cheat me out of a price. Now I know it is the holidays and everybody wants to buy gifts but stealing is no way to do that. Business Response /* (4000, 10, 2021/12/13) */ Hello dear customer, but we have already refunded your money becaase of inconvenience that we made, your money will be seen on your account in 7-10 business days, please wait a little, thanks for your patience!

  On Nov 25, 2021, I got a call from ****** at US Star Trucking LLC for a car shipment. He promised to ship my car on the following Sunday and requested me to pay $103.5 deposit (see the attached receipt). However, after reviewing all BBB complaints, I decided to step away from this scam company. I refused to sign the contract and requested the refund of $103.5 deposit right away. No refunding action of course in the following two weeks. According to ******* they charged the deposit as cancellation fee. But I didn't sign any contract with them. And I clearly requested to stop their service and asked for deposit refund through both phone call and text messages (please see attached screenshot). Now they rejected my phone calls. I have to seek help from BBB about this issue. Such a cheating company must be stopped! Please let me know if any other information is required. I can be reached by email: *********@gmail.com or phone XXX-XXX-XXXX.
