  This place is a ripe off. First off The locations is nasty outside, and doors entering building barely work or broken to where you can enter with no code. Second they Raise the price of units for current customers. Third I became late on my May payment. On Saturday 5/30 I signed into my account to make a payment and notice it was higher 30 bucks more but the same as the month before $181 but not in March was only $155. In March , I receive a call from a *** saying they were adding the cost off a lock to my account. So I assumed that the 181 I paid included the cost of the lock . That was not the case . Turns out in the last year and a half my payment amount which was originally $128 increased 2x once to 130 some now to 150 something. My payment increased to 155 or so and a late fee assessed. Me not knowing why its 181 didnt make the payment. I called on 6/1 was advised of rate change but no late fee. So I requested a manager to call me back. On 5/2 I received a lien fee of 170 and another payment became due. I recieved a call from manager explaining rate change and late fee. My payment is now over $500 to come out of lien status when it couldve been avoided if she wouldve advised me correctly on 5/1 when i called for clarity. Now if I dont pay by 5/5 another 23 bucks will be added on the 6th. The extra lien fee could have been avoided if the *** on 5/1 did her job.Manager waived one late fee but now I have to come up with and extra 200 bucks because of you alls mistake. I am a single parent who is living with family. I dont work because of school and cant afford all these fees.

  Ms. ******** regarding your issues with the rates and costs,you were sent notification of a standard rate increase in February, which went into effect in April.  We made several attempts to contact you when your payment went overdue in April and when we spoke to you on 4/28 you committed to paying your account current online. No payment was made. We continued to reach out to you through the month of May with no success.  On 6/1 we spoke to you and explained what would be needed to avoid lien fees and an overlock. The charges you incurred were a combination of a rate increase compounded by past due charges; lien fees and a replacement lock due to lack of payment.  Thank you.

  12/2024, I rented a storage unit at the advertised rate of $115 per month. At no point during the sign-up process—either verbally or in the written contract—was I informed that this rate was a promotional offer with a limited duration. Five months later, in May 2025, my monthly rental fee was abruptly increased to $214, nearly double the original price. The company claimed the new rate reflected “current market conditions,” yet failed to provide any clear documentation or rationale for such a dramatic adjustment.
  Furthermore, the company is currently advertising a promotional rate of $87 for new customers, but again, there is no disclosure anywhere—on their website or otherwise—regarding how long that rate is valid, or what the future pricing structure will be. This lack of transparency makes it impossible for consumers to make informed decisions.
  I chose to cancel my lease due to these deceptive practices. Consumers should not be subjected to unpredictable pricing structures or unclear contractual terms. There is no indication of what I—or any other customer—might be charged in the months ahead, and no commitment by the company to maintain fair or stable pricing.
  I am deeply troubled that a company engaging in such behavior maintains an A+ rating with the BBB. These business practices are not only misleading, but also exploit the trust of consumers looking for reliable storage solutions.
  I respectfully request that the BBB investigate this company’s pricing policies and consider reevaluating its rating based on these predatory practices. I also ask that steps be taken to ensure that clearer disclosure requirements are in place for all promotional and variable rate terms.

  Alum Rock Self Storage in ********, ** was acquired by SmartStop in December of 2024. I was not notified by Alum Rock or SmartStop of the change, by phone or mail. I stopped receiving invoices from *********, which they did by mail. I, unfortunately, took a while to notice. It was not until I drove by the facility to pay in person, that I was made aware of the change, in March 2024. By this time, I still have not received anything from SmartStop, by phone or mail. Also, by this time, my payments are late which I understand. I contacted SmartStop several times by phone. On April 10, I spoke to ***** at the local store around 11:15 am. I called customer service on the same day at 12:44 pm and spoke to ******. I was told my case would be escalated and someone would call within 72 business hours. Today is May 10 and I have yet to receive that call. I called back again on April 18 at about 2:50 pm and spoke to *****. I was again told that someone would follow up. At this point, I don't even have an account number and still no mailing. Now I'm very late. I received a lien notice dated April 21, 2025 for the four months I'm now behind. The notice says that payment is due May 22, 2025 by 11 am. I paid the amount due and an additional month. I was informed that the payment was received today, May 10. I also received a preliminary lien notice, dated May 2, 2025 for the exact amount the facility received today. It says the payment is due, in full, in 14 days. I've attached both notices. I received a call from the facility today stating I still owe $170. I understand that my May payment is late since it is past the first. I'll pay the May late fee. However, according to the two notices I received, I paid well before the requested due date. *****, at the ************ facility, says the computer calculated something different from the notices I have that are now paid. I'm being told my storage items will go up for auction. #***************, Unit B129 ************

  Due to circumstances, we were forced to have to vacate our house and our belongings for a period of time. We chose SmartStop to store all of our household items as it seemed reliable and close. We have been renting from them since July 2024. Since then we have payed close to $4,000 in rent for the storage unit. All of our belongings are in this storage unit. We observed evidence of rodent activity in our storage unit around December 2024. We let the office know and they responded by saying that because of the location of our unit(it being at the end of the facility, it being near the field, and a unit near us storing food) that they knew there was a rat problem there. Meaning that they rented us this unit knowing that there was rodent activity in the unit. They specified what units are not affected by rodent activity(the units closer to the office). They then followed up by saying that they will put up more traps in the vicinity of our unit. We noticed that this was never done. When we brought up the rodent activity to them again they said they will clean it up after we leave. We now have to throw out almost all of our belongings. Rodent activity is a serious biohazard due to Hantavirus, Arenavirus, Salmonella, etc. We essentially payed these people $4,000 to destroy all of our belongings. We are not even close to a wealthy family, we live on benefits such as SNAP and have no recourse in handling this situation let alone any resources to repurchase basic house hold items. We have many things of both sentimental and monetary value that are now contaminated and unsafe to bring home. On top of this, on May 1st they called me to say they changed my lock and to come by to pick up the key. When I asked why this was done they said they don't know maybe someone broke in or maybe they just wanted to change the locks. This was done without any notice to me. Since then I have been in communication with the regional manager but they are not giving me an answer.

  ******, we have confirmed that your claim was paid, and a check sent to you for $500 on 3/15/25.  The amount is the maximum allotted for this type of claim as referenced in the Tenant Protection Policy. Your door was replaced due to a report made that it was heavy and difficult to open.  Our District Manager has reached out to you via email to explain this. Thank you.

  To whom may concern,
  
  I am writing in response to your request for additional information regarding my complaint against Smart Stop Self Storage in *******. I strongly believe that this company acted in bad faith and breached our rental agreement. 
  
  Background and issue summary:
   I rented a storage unit with the understanding that I would receive a safe storage space. However, the company failed to disclose a preexisting rat infestation problem despite having knowledge of this condition. When I reported the issue to the office, they confirmed that the unit was known to have ongoing rat problems. 
  
  Contract violations:
   The company rented me a unit with known infestation without disclosing it in the rental contract. This constitutes misrepresentation and breach of good faith. 
  
  Unauthorized lock change:
   The company changed my storage unit door and look without providing the required 48-hour written notice as outlined in our contract. They called me on May 1 ST at 3:30 PM and informed me to come and get my new key. When I asked why the lock was changed? they said may be there was a break-in. I filed a police report #**********. finally after eight phone calls to different people and three emails to Mrs. ***** *****, I was informed that my door was replaced due to a contractor error, but in the email also says that a report was made that my door was too heavy and needed to be changed. On June 24, 2024, almost a year ago when I rented the unit, I let the office employee know that my door wasn't locking properly and I was told that all the doors were like that. I never made a report. and complaint about the door. This represents a breach of our original contract.
  
  Financial damages incurred:
   Due to this situation, I have suffered significant financial losses. They are outlined as follows:
  1. Storage fees of about $4,000
  2. ****** Safety equipment to enter storage unit for me and two assistants so we could go in an dump items without fear of contamination about $400.00. I did read the *** guideline and followed their advise.
  3. Almost all of belongings needed to be dumped. I paid workers $380 to do that for me. Some of the items lost are irreplaceable, including my son's childhood artwork, pictures I brought from **** of my late parents. Persian Carpet. 
  
  Supporting documents: I have comprehensive evidence to support my claim, photographs of dead rats and infestation including their nests, witness testimony. 
  
  Resolution sought:
   I am having for compensation of $12,500.00 which represents the maximum amount receivable in small claims court to cover my financial losses. I am willing to resolve this matter outside of court but am prepared to pursue legal action if necessary. I believe a reasonable business would acknowledge responsibility for failing to disclose known health hazards and work toward an equitable solution. And follow their written contract about entering my storage unit.
  ****** *******

  *** recently gotten a new phone number which came directly from the provider. Evidently this number belonged to someone before me who has debt with this company. Over the last month and a half Ive had an extremely large amount of phone calls and voicemails left on my phone. Ive personally called the business asking for my phone number to be removed from their system as this phone number no longer belongs to the individual they are trying to reach. The calls have continued. At this point the calls have reached a point of harassment. To make it worse theyre doing so towards a person who has no relation to the account in question. I spoke to the local branch and the corporate office, both have informed me that they cannot and will not remove my number from their system. They need a new contact number for the individual theyre trying to reach so Ill have to get that to have it removed. I dont even know the person theyre calling. The representative told me today they wouldnt call again until next week as if that remedied my issue.

  I have been with Smartshop storage at 1401 enterprise drive since 2015. I had about 3 issues since I have been there but this last issue was not addressed at all. I went on-line as always to make my monthly payment and the system was down so I took a screenshot. I forwarded to the manager of the location letting her know I could not make my payment so the $22.50 late fee should be reversed since the was a Smartshop issue and not a Mateo ****** I was suppose to get a call her that day, nothing.. I called back on my own the following day and got another manager it is only 2 at that location, one male and one female. The *** said it is notes that ***** stated he couldn't help **** called the call center initially and spoke to someone on the 11th that never notated my account outside of sending me a payment link after the fact so that 5 minute call was pointless. I then called again and spoke to ****** who made a ticket ***** that was sent to the district manager, ********** has been 3 weeks later after I called the corporate office at ************ on the April 15th and spoke to ******* that sent an email to ***** ********* District Manager and to ****** *******. It is 05/05/2025 I haven't heard anything from Smartshop at all.I called again and spoke to *******. and told her it has been 3 weeks no calls whatsoever and this is the corporate office or is it?? She transferred me to a number that was suppose to be the Director of the *********** ***** ******. I left a message today 05/05/2025 for ***** to call me back. I called ******* back and told her I left a message but the number I was transferred to had no identification whatsoever so hopefully it was ***** ****** number. I also told her if I did not hear anything today I will call her back tomorrow.

  I rented a storage unit from this location, one of the perks was they said its a secure location and close to my work. My unit was broken into and a lot of belongs were stolen. Even handmade keepsakes from my children. This business makes you pay for insurance which I understand but now the insurance is denying the claim saying they are not liable. There are no cameras in the back which is where my unit was and there are homeless all over that area. It was their job to keep things secure. Someone cut the lock off my unit and stole my belongings. How are they not liable?

  

  Business Response

  Date: 04/30/2025

  Dear *** *******,

  As there was no evidence of a break-in, your claim was denied. You indicated that you would come to the site the next day to file a report, but did not do so. The store manager called and reminded you to contact us. You said you would be there the next day, but did not appear. We left a voicemail asking you to contact us with details, but we have not received a response.

  I never received a phone call other than the original that told me the unit was found unlocked and they had placed one of their locks on my unit so I would need to come into the office the next time I wanted inside my unit, to get a key. That was the only phone call I ever received from the business. I was out of town due to work and couldn't come in to check on the items. I told the manager that at the time and he told me he would make sure it was locked up to just come see him when I was available.  When I was able to go in, he told me they never found the lock and that they had a very bad homeless issue. Which is evident when you walk around the facilities. There are numerous holes in the fence and areas where the fence is broken from people climbing over. The manager told me they had many break ins especially on the backside, which is where my unit was located, due to low lighting and no cameras in that area. As that is the path the homeless walk to get to a close encampment. Regardless,  I paid for insurance for this reason. My unit was robbed, my belongings were taken without my knowledge.

  Ms. ******** per our records the unit was found unlocked on 6/22/24. During our call with you, you stated you had forgot to place lock on unit. One of our red locks was placed on the unit until such a time as you could come by and replace the lock. On 7/21, we changed our red lock to a customer lock and held the key in the office for you. You paid for that lock on 11/29/24, and the possible break in was called in the next day.Please feel free to contact the store directly if you have any questions .

  I am writing to express my serious disappointment with the treatment I’ve received from your staff, specifically Assistant Manager Chris and the Store Manager.
  
  I began renting unit 2105 on March 10, 2025, and from day one, I felt uncomfortable due to Chris’s attitude. Instead of treating me like a valued customer, he spoke in a condescending, authoritative tone that made me feel as though I was being investigated.
  
  The first incident happened after a long workday and two-hour drive. I entered the facility through an open gate, and Chris confronted me rudely, saying, “Don’t do this next time.” His tone was disrespectful and unnecessary. When I expressed how his behavior made me feel, he continued to speak in a dismissive and commanding way. Even if I had made a mistake, I deserved to be addressed respectfully.
  
  On April 11, 2025, I was again made to feel uncomfortable. Chris approached me and stated, “We are closing in 25 minutes,” once again in a confrontational tone. I chose not to engage further and instead called the manager. Unfortunately, she was even more aggressive and refused to listen to my concerns. She stated, “I don’t have time for a customer like you,” and threatened to close my account, saying she’d “find my info which was alarming given the sensitivity of my personal information.
  
  This type of behavior is completely unacceptable. I’ve never experienced such treatment in any other storage facility. As a result, I am vacating my unit and requesting a full refund for the most recent month’s charge.
  
  I urge you to address this matter seriously and take appropriate action. No customer should be treated with such this way
  
  So I will be happy to be charged prorated for exactly about days I stayed

  I am writing to formally request a full refund for my rental, including the remaining insurance balance, due to extremely poor conditions and unacceptable treatment at your facility.
  
  
  The storage unit was unsanitary and poorly maintained, leading to damage to several items, including books affected by rats. I had to sanitize many belongings, which cost me time, energy, and ruined my weekend.
  
  
  More concerning, I was subjected to unprofessional and intimidating behavior by staff. I was told my personal data would be collected just for requesting a cart, which felt like a clear misuse of information and a violation of privacy. Additionally, I experienced verbal threats from a manager and felt ganged up on by multiple staff members, creating an unsafe and hostile environment. This behavior felt targeted and discriminatory, and may constitute a hate crime.
  
  
  I am therefore requesting the following:
  
  
  A full refund for the rental and the pending insurance refund.
  A written apology and explanation of steps being taken to prevent such issues.
  Confirmation that my personal data is no longer being accessed or misused.
  
  
  
  
  If I do not receive a satisfactory response within 7 business days, I will escalate this matter to consumer protection authorities

  BBB is unable to locate the business.

  This is the second complaint I am filing. Initial complaint was 11/30/24 to the BBB. There is a problem with the ****** location, and not only with me. Every time I go in there someone is complaining about something. They cant keep their books straight. Even when I showed proof of payment with receipts and bank statements they still told me I didnt pay. After hours on end, e-mails, phone calls, office visits, contacting the BBB. They ended up owing us money! I am 87 years old and had to spend endless hours including driving from ***** to ****** to go into the office with receipts and documents. Now after over two years of paying for TWO storage units 630 and 580 at the same time every single month they mistakenly only took payment for one. I gave them my debit card and told them I was paying for both units and the girl only charged my card for one without my knowledge or consent. They made a mistake and even said they made a mistake. When I went to move my stuff out of storage after living in motels I couldnt get into my unit because they told me I didnt pay! I had to cancel the moving truck we paid. They added all kinds of late fees because of their mistake once again and I didnt have the money. I have the money to pay the units but not enough for all the fees that they accumulated and tacked on due to their continuous mistakes in the office. Again, I am 87 years old, I moved into an apartment a month ago but have no bed, no furniture, no clothes, no utensils. I am sleeping on a blowup bed in severe agony. They are set to auction all of my life belongings on 4/23. If this happens I will contact every news station and social media to let people see what this company has done to me. I have all of my receipts and documentation of every clerk I spoke to.Surely there has to be some kind of medium we can reach here due to all the mistakes made from the office. This is unfair, unprofessional, unacceptable and inhuman. How can you do this to people.PLEASE HELP ME.
