      We've used Iron Mountain for many years. The week of March 11, 2024 we requested boxes be delivered to ** from their record retention. After multiple attempts to get help with customer service, they said we have to pay outstanding invoices to get the hold off our order. We were never made aware of any outstanding invoices. One of the invoices we show as paid and another I wish to dispute but they are holding our boxes ****** until we pay the outstanding. Once paid, I feel I've lost any opportunity to dispute and/or receive credit. I've reached out to customer service multiple times but they don't seem to know anything, leaving us without any recourse.

      I'm convinced their tactic is to make the process as frustrating as possible so customers won't ask for their money back after incorrect charges/charges for no service. The lack of communication, attention to details and transparency is the icing on the cake of reasons why I will never use or recommend Iron Mountain ever again. Stay far away unless you enjoy sending 100 emails for the same issue to be resolved.
