I received a quote for $450 to deliver our car from Lawrence KS to Colorado Springs, CO. Total cost was $575. The quote I received identified the car was not running and would be picked up at my residence. I paid $150 deposit. When the carrier arrived, his charges were $425. Total cost was now $575. I contacted Herman and asked about the discrepancy in cost from the estimate. He mentioned that the car was not running and that had to be picked up at a residence- both conditions of the original estimate. He then offered to refund my deposit. After three weeks of phone calls and emails and varied assurances from Herman, they refunded $25 of my $150 deposit. Disappointed and I would discourage anyone from trusting Protected Auto estimates.
