Dear Valued Customer,
I want to begin my apologizing for the inconvenience that our carrier may
have caused. Our company is indeed considered a carrier and a broker-
therefore, we do have our own trucks and we also have contracted carriers
that we work through for certain routes. As proof, we will be uploading
pictures of our trucks immediately. As far as the claim for the delivery
turnaround, it is unfortunately incorrect because all of our transit dates
are estimated. This information is clearly printed on the contract that you
agreed to when signing on with our company. Furthermore, I want to state the
fact that we do not tow vehicles via tow trucks, regardless of make or
model. The reason that we were cornered into proceeding with this method of
delivery is because you insisted that the vehicle be delivered the day that
our truck was experiencing some mechanical difficulties. Once again, our
dates are estimated and we never guarantee delivery dates- however, because
we always do everything possible to make our customers happy, we agreed to
deliver your vehicle on your preferred date with a tow truck. I understand
that you are frustrated with the fact that the vehicle may have been towed
to you but if you had been patient and waited until the following morning,
we would have delivered it to you with a standard truck. Unfortunately, as
much as I would like to resolve this issue by processing a refund, my
management team did not approve it because of the terms and conditions you
agreed to in our contract. By all means, the language on the contract does
not mention the method of transportation that will be used to move your
vehicle from point A to point B. The carrier we had contracted out to, Pro
Transport LLC. is who you chose to deal with directly when requesting
delivery and you agreed to their personal terms and conditions verbally. Had
you waited a single extra night, we would have professionally delivered the
vehicle to you with our truck. The facts are that you chose to go with an
open transport and are unsatisfied with the dirty condition of your vehicle-
however, it is impossible to keep a vehicle clean when transporting it via
an open trailer. Although Global Auto Transportation takes no responsibility
for this, the tow truck that was delivering to you had the courtesy to
provide you with a $50 discount for the inconvenience and the dirty
condition of the vehicle. I feel that both the carrier and our company have
fulfilled your requests to the best of our abilities for this transportation
and I sincerely apologize that your extreme standards were not sufficiently
satisfied or met. Although we have done all that we could to keep you happy,
I will also apply a $200 credit on your account with our company for any
future transportation necessities you may have. Once more, I thank you for
your business and appreciate you understanding how careful and sincerely we
deal with our customers and their vehicles. Thank you and we look forward to
servicing you in the near future.
