This is about their U-Haul rental svcs. I had two (2) occasions when this Asian staff sabotaged svcs. One time was that when I walked in to sign for the truck reservation, he shoved me a toll-free number to call. Luckily Michael came back later so Michael booked me at the shop.
When having returned the truck, I had to wait one hour with another storage customer until this Asian staff came back, This storage customer whispered to me , "He is a maintenance guy. He is not good at U-Haul transactions." Surely this Asian stuff told me to come back tomorrow since he was NOT ABLE TO PROCESS my payment.
I told this guy, "I don't want to take your word for it. Why don't you write *Dear Mr. Leong, I am not able to process your payment. Please come back tomorrow.* And don't forget to print your name and sign on it. And I will be out of your hair."
He refused to write what he had stated to me. With almost 30 minutes' back and forth, he finally said, "Okay I will do it."
When I got home I got a U-Haul customer review question in my email. AND I filled out what I had experienced with Millbrae U-Haul rental.
Here is what the manager wrote in response to my statement about the bad experience with the U-Haul truck renting:

I have to say though we have a solid reputation in the industry, at the very least our high ratings with all Uhaul customers in the past is not by accident. If you were to see all of our previous comments I am certain you might agree, hence my sadness at the negativity of your response.
With all due respect to you as well, considering the bad experience you say you went through, I was sadly perturbed at your references to our staff as "this Asian maintenance guy," we do not have an "Asian maintenance guy" in our employ at present, nor do we talk of our valued staff members in any such light either. I am presuming though, that seeing as though you did not know his name, that this was the only way you could describe him. I have no idea why the staff member did not introduce himself to you, but will certainly look into that as well.
Added to this you mention of '' I do not trust that shop any longer" seemed at the very least a tad harsh in my estimation. We have over 1000 customers at this store alone, and have served over 400 customers for Uhaul this year alone, so in that respect our company would see any completely negative remark such as this, as serious. No doubt, so should our staff.

If a customer had a seriously bad experience, the last thing that s/he wishes to hear is the entity manager's complacent self-justifying self-righteous statement of their SO-CALLED high and mighty services AND vindications of his/her subordinates AND harsh criticism of his/her honest opinion of the svc sabotage AND sabotage attempt received BY HIS SUBORDINATE.
If the manager has this attitude, I would stay very very far away from them. read more
