      April 30th 2025 . Company 1800 Got Junk in Illinois came out to take 1 television as advertised should have been 89 dollars. They charged my nephew 369.00 to remove television when I was not home to question. Would not have agreed to this increase and he felt obligated to pay under false pretenses made by the company. Please help adjust this inflated price paid. Attached the email. Talked to someone prior whi confirmed it would be 89.00 if the crew could move which they did.

      I was told that at my request, Got Junk would donate my items that were fit for donation. We had well over 1,000 items. I was told I would receive the charitable donation tax credit receipt for my records. The truck came, the drivers didn't know, but "donation" was in the notes on my paperwork. I called the company, they said they do not provide the tax credit to me, or transfer it to me from those places they donate. I said charitable entities must issue this to donors, so either I was entitled to a record of my donation, or Got Junk would receive it, but that they must issue this document. They refused to help, explain, or work with me to resolve this. I am now left to tell the IRS about my perceived donation value, and hope for the best. This is false advertising at best, fraud at worst, and this should be explained on the website and by sales people.
