              Status:
              Unanswered
              As of April 2023 I had attempted to remove my items from the storage location. I was informed by the store ***** that the lock was removed, and that the tamper tag just needed to be twisted until it pops off. This was not the case when attempting to remove my belongings.In May 2023 I addressed my grievances with the agent, who was never available at the location anytime I or family members attempted to access the location. I have made several attempts to reach the corporate office, left voicemails to no avail. I have also contacted the district manager "****" via phone, message, and email and have also been ignored. I wish for my May, and 1/2 of April be refunded because I was not given access to my unit, I have correspondence to prove what i'm saying is accurate. The location Account Manager is extremely impossible to work with.

              Literally garbage. No controls over their properties, often unable to access because of frequent alarm issues with no one on site, people smoking in and living in interior units, zero customer service, constant, significant rate increases shortly after you sign up and does not respond to BBB complaints. Its a company that literally does not care. You would have better luck storing your stuff in a random dumpster.
