Fellow bikers, its now a month of a virtual battle with Transpro. There is just no response from the guy and i wonder if he's still alive or maybe strucked down with dementia. He's got our money and he's suddenly disappeared without a care in the world. This has never happened to us from anyone or any other business.
So i'm venting out here.......
20th Oct – Won bike on trademe
20th Oct * Paid for the bike to owner
* Arranged shipping, got a quote from Transpro for Palmerston North - Auckland. Address of pickup given, company name and phone numbers.
* Transpro promised to pickup 21st Oct at 9am on the dot and delivered to us on 22nd Oct.
*Paid Transpro and sent confirmation email with payment proof but a little hiccup happened, we put New Plymouth instead of Palmerston North on the email (a little mistake but we’ve already exchanged information verbally over the phone taken down by Shahils wife hence quoting us with the Palmerston North quote which we accepted for them to take on the job. Plus we paid very fast.
21st Oct * No phone calls from them so we presumed everything was going smoothly.
22nd Oct *No bike, no phone calls...ok maybe the bike is nearby so we called Transpro back.
*They blamed us for not giving them the right suburb (but we did over the phone). Why hadn’t Transpro given us a call before and let us know – NO COMMUNICATIONS!
*Transpros excuse – they sent the driver all the way down to New Plymouth and couldn’t find the shop (You think they could have double checked the address before sending someone all the way down there? plus they had the initial quote) Something was definitely fishy with Shahils story.
*Shahil promised to pickup bike and deliver 27th Oct
23rd Oct – 27th Oct – No communications, no follow ups and still NO BIKE. We tried calling transpro on every available numbers many times, 4 emails from us already but still no replies. There’s always some excuse whenever we try and get hold of him i’m so sick to my stomach someone can actually sleep and do this.
27th Oct – My husband is climbing the walls now :angry:... I got sick of Transpro and their lies and excuses (such a horrid experience) and we contacted Biketranz instead and voila’ they picked up bike today, awesome communications and amazingly delivered our beloved bike on the 29th Oct. Thank god Transpro didn’t get their dirty hands on our bike or it would have been a jeepers creepers nightmare.
28th Oct – Today – Shahil Chand from Transpro still promised he will pick up bike, didn’t want to refund us our money and we instigated a refund, at least half our money. The whole deal was totally unprofessional let alone based and built on dishonesty and excuses. He suggested we take this to mediation, i’m gobsmacked.
*5 emails sent to Transpro, over 30 phone calls made. All emails and phone conversation records in hand.
I am seeking further advice from authorities and have few options on how we can tackle this issue. Its getting to the point where we have no other choice than to pass this on to the right guns to deal with as its not worth the stress.

Roadride, Shahil does monitor these forums under the name "transpro", try to PM him and maybe he'll post to the forums like he did in my case.
Best of luck, take a look at the consumer guarantess act http://www.consumeraffairs.govt.nz/consumerinfo/cga/ you've paid for a service but it was not rendered.

I was willing to let the first instance slip as a one off incident, seemed like bad luck and bad communication, a second incident in as many days... I think you deserve all the badmouthing you get coming your way.
Given the amount of 'Whats the best transport company to use' threads that jump up on this forum, perhaps it would be prudent to make a sticky on who the worst is.

I sold my ill buddies Buell on his behalf, it went to Nelson from Martinborough.
BIKETRANZ did the job for the buyer.
Awesome rig they had (a BIG Italian Mega Van thing)
And were BANG ontime, driver rang on Cell when he realized his GPS had 'Ferry Road' mistaken with 'Lake Ferry road' (happens a lot) and I swear, the Bike got there faster than I could have on my own riding it and taking the boat
New owner was stoked, still keeps in touch, and that gorgeous XB9 was unmarked and treated like the driver owned it himself
Helps you not here Roadride, but if I can back up the fact that BIKETRANZ deliver, and ONTIME with good comms, maybe we can save the next seller/buyer the pain you suffered

Mate believe it or not I have the exact same experience as you. 3 weeks ago bought a bike off a Kber from Welly and since then have been having endless problem with Transpro.:angry: First of all they have not picked up the bike from seller on the date promised, TWICE, without notifying the seller; then gives some lame excuse when asked (the van broke down??) Hullo?!! Where is the "New Zealand's absolute best service and - we get it right the first time"????!!
Also no one seems to ever pick up the phone at their end. The good thing came out of it is that at the end we went to Bikertranz and they did the delivery perfectly. Glad the tards at Transpro did not get their filthy hands on my bike.
So far the seller is trying to chase the money back for me as he did most of the dealings with them. The money was supposed to be back by the end of last week but still no news so far.
What can I say about Transpro: First class website (notice the nice graphics and designs) + top notch bullshit + Third world service. Frankly I can't believe such a company can exist in New Zealand. This is as close to a scammer as it gets. Appalling...
Let this be a warning for the rest of you...

For some reason real public shaming seems to do the job better than the disputes tribunal - the fact that he's said for you to take him to the disputes tribunal probably means he's been through the process before and doesn't care too much for it.

There is so much bad press on these guys. Luckily you've only lost money at the moment. Personally I wonder if you're better off visiting in person, with many friends. If you join the Bikeoi you'd be able to collar a few friends to ride around and pay them a visit.
Good luck getting your money back.

It has been TWO week now since they promised the refund. I just got a message from the seller saying that he has had no luck at all getting the money, basically he cannot reach anyone there, thats ANYONE AT TRANSPRO. Can you believe this from the "best of New Zealand"?
I am beginning to think this is not a company but a bloody scam artist. They give you a quote, promised incredible service, pick up your bike and then f**k off.
Roadride do you have any luck getting the money back? I will be calling them myself this week and if it's still not resolved I will be looking at taking some legal action. Anyone else who has had similar problem please speak out for the sake of other bikers. It never seize to amaze me that such business can exist.

OH BOY....i know how you feel mate. We still havent had luck ourselves getting in touch with them and we're in a process of sorting this out.
Shahil Chand wont front up, he's bloody corrupt.
Transpro is not a legit company as it seems on their web, they are operating multiple companies with joint owners, different numbers and different names. Transpro operates from their home and as we've recently found out from a deeper dig, the grass aint getting greener.
It is one of those scams that you see around + failing business ventures. We are really pissed and very disappointed and this will be justified.

Hi,
I have been ripped off by Transpro as well, no refund of money despite emails and phone calls. Shahil told me he had organised transport and when i rang to get a time it was being delivered, he told me it wasn't arranged. I cancelled transportation and no refund at all.
I would love to get your story about Transpro as im putting a file together to send to Fairgo and Citizens advice. Are you able to help out? I sent him a email that im going to Debt collection and i got a response straight away - this maybe an option too. Im seeking legal advice so all your help would be great.
Thank you,

Fellow bikers, its now a month of a virtual battle with Transpro. There is just no response from the guy and i wonder if he's still alive or maybe strucked down with dementia. He's got our money and he's suddenly disappeared without a care in the world. This has never happened to us from anyone or any other business.
So i'm venting out here.......
20th Oct – Won bike on trademe
20th Oct * Paid for the bike to owner
* Arranged shipping, got a quote from Transpro for Palmerston North - Auckland. Address of pickup given, company name and phone numbers.
* Transpro promised to pickup 21st Oct at 9am on the dot and delivered to us on 22nd Oct.
*Paid Transpro and sent confirmation email with payment proof but a little hiccup happened, we put New Plymouth instead of Palmerston North on the email (a little mistake but we’ve already exchanged information verbally over the phone taken down by Shahils wife hence quoting us with the Palmerston North quote which we accepted for them to take on the job. Plus we paid very fast.
21st Oct * No phone calls from them so we presumed everything was going smoothly.
22nd Oct *No bike, no phone calls...ok maybe the bike is nearby so we called Transpro back.
*They blamed us for not giving them the right suburb (but we did over the phone). Why hadn’t Transpro given us a call before and let us know – NO COMMUNICATIONS!
*Transpros excuse – they sent the driver all the way down to New Plymouth and couldn’t find the shop (You think they could have double checked the address before sending someone all the way down there? plus they had the initial quote) Something was definitely fishy with Shahils story.
*Shahil promised to pickup bike and deliver 27th Oct
23rd Oct – 27th Oct – No communications, no follow ups and still NO BIKE. We tried calling transpro on every available numbers many times, 4 emails from us already but still no replies. There’s always some excuse whenever we try and get hold of him i’m so sick to my stomach someone can actually sleep and do this.
27th Oct – My husband is climbing the walls now :angry:... I got sick of Transpro and their lies and excuses (such a horrid experience) and we contacted Biketranz instead and voila’ they picked up bike today, awesome communications and amazingly delivered our beloved bike on the 29th Oct. Thank god Transpro didn’t get their dirty hands on our bike or it would have been a jeepers creepers nightmare.
28th Oct – Today – Shahil Chand from Transpro still promised he will pick up bike, didn’t want to refund us our money and we instigated a refund, at least half our money. The whole deal was totally unprofessional let alone based and built on dishonesty and excuses. He suggested we take this to mediation, i’m gobsmacked.
*5 emails sent to Transpro, over 30 phone calls made. All emails and phone conversation records in hand.
I am seeking further advice from authorities and have few options on how we can tackle this issue. Its getting to the point where we have no other choice than to pass this on to the right guns to deal with as its not worth the stress. How Shahil and his Transpro manage to run his business ethically is beyond me.
If he had owned up to this, communicate and resolve this minor problem, it wouldn’t have escalated to this magnitude.
Transpro, Shahil Chand & Nazia Hanif, do the right thing and give us our money back.
Any other suggestions or insight would be great but otherwise, please beware of dealing with Transpro :bash:.

26th November 2009, 22:56
Ok here is the update: finally received the $250 refund. I have managed to reach Shahil on phone last Monday, which he promised to put the money back into the seller's account during the week. The seller also wrote an e-mail to inform him that legal action will be taken if he continues to ignore us.
This Tuesday he rang up and basically said the money is there, sorry about this because unfortunately had to take some time off for personal reasons and have only returned to office today...etc. blah blah blah, nothing that really matters now is there?
What continues to anger me is that in the mail to the seller, he mentioned that he has "waived the cancellation charges which are a minimum of $100". -after they've failed to collect the bike in 3 occasions and not even mention about the frustration in reaching anyone
To: Roadride and Alana: Hope you guys get your refund soon. If you need any help for compiling evidence I am very happy to help.
To Transpro: You guys are simply amazing and I have never ever came across anything alike. How you run your business is beyond my imagination. The fat lady in the old tuckshop who sold me a half frozen big bens mince and cheese pie for $4 offers better service than this.
Please do the right thing and refund other people the service you have falsely promised.
To Biketranz: $330 well spent
To other KBers: Let this be a warning... A $250 delivery quote may seem appealing, but when things like this happen to your beloved bike I only wished I paid double just to get things done properly. Alas it's true that If you pay peanuts,you get monkey jobs.

You know what would be really good - to try and make one of the threads here rank more highly than TransPro when searching for TransPro on Google.
So any new potential customers know just how bad they are.

For your info this company is now known as Colossal Transport Limited, and they have just got themselves some 'problems.'

Well looks like im not the only one, they duped me of $700. I paid them to deliver a couple of cars from Auckland to Palmerston. I called and emailed 100's of times to get the cars sorted, never heard from them. Now been chasing since November to get a refund. These two are just not to be trusted, on Monday im going to small claims !! I will also call fair go...

Another person ripped off - paid money up front, and service was never delivered.
What's annoying is that I got ripped off just before Christmas, but these guys had been ripping people off for months before they got me.
Tried to find out what happened but no replies etc - now abuse from Nazia!
All their numbers are disconnected expect for this one now 04 4779058.
Good luck to everyone but I think we're out of luck
