Is 'iammoving' website a good thing ? Any experiences ?

morganlefay

I'm so sorry - have just put this question in the wrong place.
We have been faffing about for months and the solicitors (there is a VERY long chain) have finally come up with a completion date which is just over 3 weeks away :eek:
I have just found the 'iammoving' website which seems too good to be true and I wondered if anyone has any experience of it, as it would be very helpful in our current circumstances if it is good.
help please !
(And many apologies for multiple posting, nice Board Guide)

I ought all my removal boxes from them 4 years ago. They've lasted 4 house moves and I've only thrown them away this time aswe bought and aren't moving again for a few years!

I did use them to notify peeps that I was moving and seem to remember havingno issues

iammoving will tell their partnered organisations of your move - but in my view, most of the folks you should be telling aren't likely to be partnered with iammoving. Out of their list of a dozen logos at the foot of their homepage, there's only one I would need to tell.....

Have a look through this list - how many of the people you need to tell will be on the iammoving list?

WOW Googler, that's a darn good list - thank you so much. I shall use it (if that's OK with you ?) instead of iammoving - you're right, there are lots of other people who aren't on their radar.
Thank you very much indeed:beer:

No problem. If you think of any to add to the list, post them here.

EDIT - just thought of some myself

Shareholdings - Registrars (direct and online)

I used the list above but added on.

Medical insurance
Micropchip people for pets
Memberships (for me Cheshire beekeepers and zoo membership)

Can add market research/survey sites that send rewards.
Freebie services that regularly send items e.g Jack Daniels.

googler-it's a usefullist, but to be helpful for others it would be great if you added any further suggestions to your original post - saves people having to plough through the whole thread!

Then all we have to do is find a way to sticky it. Not easy!

For some reason it will not let me 'add thanks' to your posts but thanks anyway because your original list will be really useful.

You need to be logged in to thank someone, but you can still read the forum without being logged in ...
