They quote you one price.
Then they hold your car hostage for another.

An open record of personal experiences from people who say they were subjected to bait-and-switch pricing, fake competitor calls, and pressure tactics by Pride Car Shipping. Read the reports. Add yours.

The Playbook

Three tactics customers keep describing.

Bait quote

A low, competitive quote lures you in. You sign a contract and pay a deposit — often before your car is picked up.

The fake competitor call

Mention you're comparing prices? Customers report calls from mystery numbers pretending to be the other company — quoting outrageous prices to steer you back.

The switch

Something happens to the driver or pick-up at the original quoted price. The job gets delayed, reassigned, or canceled — and the price jumps once you're already locked in.
