    We have no idea who this customer is actually trying to contact. We have no record of ever shipping this vehicle. Every vehicle we transport, we always send a conformation/reciept e-mail. It is not possible for us to ship a vehicle without sending a conformation e-mail.

    I am rejecting this response because: The credit card was charged on 9/6/2022 not 9/2/2022.

    It might be OK. but I need to see if the insurance company will question it or not.

    We are disputing the transaction from Van3AutoTransport on Feb 10th.The agreement was for a $250 deposit and $900 on delivery.First, Van promised a pickup on February 21st or 22nd. When the pickup didnt take place we initiated the first dispute because **** claims to call you a day before to confirm the pickup day and time window (ie we should have heard from them either Feb 20th or 21st). Moreover they never called or emailed me to inform me why the pickup didnt take place. I emailed and called them several times and got no responses until the morning of the 22nd claiming they had a mechanical issue that was out of their control.On the 23rd,the pickup did take place and we lifted the dispute.We agreed the charge back would be sufficient to continue with the contract (see his confirm email. I even emailed him proof from chase showing the dispute was lifted. Then he emails me saying we need to send them Zelle or cashApp (which we did not due).HOWEVER, both **** and the driver they sent to pickup the car promised a delivery of the car on February 28th (see email proof). My car arrived March 4th. Furthermore, upon delivery the driver demanded $1,050 or he wont release the car when it should have only been $900.Here is proof of the $1,050 that was sent to the driver.Therefore the initial $250 deposit should be REFUNDED in full. Furthermore, **** and his so called supervisor ***** keep playing games. **** says which email did you send you email to and I told him the one we have been communicating with all along the only email I have for you. ***** claims that he cant see the case and need to talk to ****. Even on Thursday, March 3rd he claimed the driver will deliver the car that evening and that didnt take place (see text message).I attached text message showing they are willing to refund the $250 as well as an additional $50 if I remove a negative review.

    This complaint was resolved about 7 months ago. The customs was refunded as he requested. He is the one who tried playing games because of a one day delay. Because we were delayed, he did not even give us a chance to explain. He filed for a chargeback right away. He received his money back immediately. We have done everything he requested. We have no idea why he waited 7 months to file a claim with the BBB.
