I rented a storage unit on Friday 6/17 with a very nice gentleman at the front counter. I came back on Saturday to drop off more items, both bays were full and also all the 4 parking spaces. I went inside to ask if there was some other entrance to get to the unit and was told that was the only one.
I got back into my car to wait for a space to open up across the street. One did after about 20 min of waiting. I parked my car and my mom and I grabbed a couple carts to load them up. Put my code in to use the elevator and the elevator didn't seem to be working. On Friday, when I rented the space, the elevator on the right had a note on it that it was out of service. The one on the left worked as my unit is on the 3rd floor. Saturday, trying to use the elevator that worked the day before, wasn't now working. I pressed the intercom and spoke to Edward and he said the both of the elevators weren't working and someone was coming at 1:30 to fix them. There is no note on the 2nd elevator saying it didn't work.
I put all my stuff back in my car and decided I want to cancel this unit because it would have been nice to have been informed of the out of service elevators, there's no where to park when it's busy.
I go in and ask Edward what the procedure is to cancel my unit, he said it's just coming in to let them know and turn my keys in.
I said it would have been nice to be told that the elevators weren't working, and he replies with "what am I supposed to do read your mind? I don't know what you were here for" and I said he could have put up a sign to say it, could have said something the first time I walked in, and could have said it again when I was unloading my car IN FRONT of the office area.
He got nasty and tried to cut me off while I was speaking and I wouldn't let him so he got mad, raised his voice and "said because I WOULDN'T LET HIM SPEAK, to get out" I told him it's basic customer service and he ushered me out the door.
He could have told me when I came in the first time, could have told me when SEEING me unload my car, a simple "hey not sure where your unit is, but elevators are down" and he wanted to be a big man and be completely rude an unprofessional. He was pure nastiness. It's all on camera and I will be contacting everyone I find up the chain to let them know about who they have running their store. read more
