It is a scam
The contract amounted to €3,720, of which €1,488 was paid in advance. On moving day, the truck was scheduled to arrive early in the morning but did not arrive until around 3:00 p.m. The driver did not speak French, and two temporary workers arrived very late.
I had to help load most of the truck myself, even though this was not included in the agreed service. Once loading was complete, the temporary workers had apparently not been paid, and the truck was prevented from leaving until the matter was resolved. During the move, I also personally heard Aimet SEDIRI make remarks about the two temporary workers that I perceived as openly racist and particularly inappropriate.
The following day, I was informed that delivery in Rennes was scheduled for August 5 at 8:30 a.m. At the same time, the company demanded that I pay the outstanding balance immediately, even though my contract clearly states “balance due upon delivery.” When I refused to pay before delivery and simply requested compliance with the contractual terms, I was told that my belongings would not be delivered. Aimet Sediri was particularly aggressive during this exchange.
Since then, I have attempted to contact the company a great many times by telephone, email, and text message. For the most part, my attempts have gone unanswered. On several occasions, the company hung up on me. During one of these telephone conversations, I was also insulted and called an “*******.”
I have the contracts, proof of payment, emails, messages, and call logs relating to the events described above.
Following this experience, I checked the company’s publicly available administrative information. It clearly shows that French Moving Company is a scam.
FRENCH MOVING COMPANY, SIREN number 994 213 122, was established only on November 20, 2025, less than a year before my move. Its declared share capital is just €100. Its registered principal business activity is neither removals nor road transport. Its registered APE code is 74.90B, “Other professional, scientific and technical activities n.e.c.” The activity declared in the French National Business Register (RNE) is that of a “business introducer,” particularly connecting businesses with providers of goods or services. In other words, the publicly available administrative information portrays it more as an intermediary between customers and service providers than as a moving company that necessarily has its own team of movers. The French Business Directory also states that the company is a “non-employing unit” (for example, the secretary, “Amélie,” whom I spoke to only once by telephone and who hung up on me after ten seconds, is not an employee). As the company was established very recently, Pappers does not currently display any available annual accounts. There is therefore very little publicly available financial history that would enable a customer to assess the company’s business activity or financial stability.
