      Unacceptable amount of times attempted to withdraw money from bank account in the amount of financial harassment considering the amounts were unexplained and even before the dates of payment or on the contract stated approval to attempt payment on the first day of Contract agreement, dishonored and unreasonable costs insured every month that would be Unacceptable

      Hello ******,

      We are disappointed  to hear of your experience. What location do you rent a unit at, we cannot find your name at any location near your address. To clarify, it is protocol for our staff that if a persons card is declined on the first, we will attempt to run it each following day in hopes that payment will go through. This is a courtesy on the part of the ** or SS to help you,the customer, avoid late fees due to their card being declined. We understand this may have been alarming to you, but would like to assure you that it was done with the best intentions.

      Thank you

      I am located at the storage in *******

      Complaint: 22835197

      I am rejecting this response because: for one the amounts were completely invalid and unreasonable, for 2 the payments were taken out before the billing cycle and different amounts everytime... and on too of that I had phone in twice to the office stating I would be in on the 20th to make a payment, therefore no payment should have even been taken out of my account when I stated I would be in to make a payment, not 6 days in a row before that day try to take payments out of my account... that being said they stole all my money and I couldn't even afford food for my special needs child or gas to are him for a doctor's appointment 

      Sincerely,

      Hello, 

      Our site staff for this location were on holiday and we recently received the full story regarding Mr. ****** ******. This situation is far more troubling than we were led to believe. There have been many issues with ****** in regard to nonpayment,breaking into other units, by passing the office etc... He had received a lease termination notice on the 30th of October but was later told over the phone he could have access to the unit until Nov 22nd to remove his items. We have a record of this call, should the BBB require it (file type not accepted), where Mr. ****** admits to the breaking & entering incident, and eventually consents to picking up his belongings during operating hours. 

      We cannot abide our tenants breaking the law within our facility, and believe our staff went above and beyond to accommodate Mr. ****** considering the circumstances. We hope the BBB reviews the contents of this response and judges fairly, we can email any requested documentation to accommodate file transfer.

      I am rejecting this response because:
         had informed the business of the reasoning and explanation as well as apologie for the doings of my actions and we had worked through that, now that being said i hwas only behind one month of payments and I was in contact with them advising them of when I would be in to make a payment.   On that note therefor there is no reason for the insane amount of times attempted to withdraw money from my bank account multiple times a day and days before payments are due... no matter what there is no excuse for these actions to happen... not to mention when said payment was taken out it wasn't even the correct amount to be taken it was way above the amount as well took every ***** which I couldn't even put a ***** of gas to get back from Work, when days prior I had called stating I was going to be in to make a payment to get cleared up

      This is a standard month invoice from mini mall storage, now the incident I am referring to is them trying numerously to take multiple payments from my bank account like an ATM... and when they finally did manage to take all my money, I had been recovering from 1 month behind... therefor that month was $248... but the next month was just a regular month but they had taken a double 248 dollar payment which would mean 2 completely late months instead of the 248 plus the regular ******** invoice I am sending you... now still to this day I haven't even gotten an invoice from those 2 months, now if you guys think that that is Part of reasonable business operation, than you should be ashamed of yourselves..  what they had done to me was Unprofessional  and was financial harassment and stole money right from my child's mouth as well as treat me ND control me like I was their child, now paying full amounts of that aspect not to mention childish actions of mini mall storage, they should be held accountable for actions of this caliper.   Me and my special needs child had to suffer and are still suffering from actions they are broadcasting towards us.   I want justice to be served in this country

      On Aug 28 2024 we gave ****** Mini Mall notice that we would vacate the storage unit by Sep 30th. We were out by mid September after which there was someone else's lock on the unit. We were subsequently charged $322.07 for rent for October. I had contact with a Mini Mall employee at 12 Mile Storage about this charge near the beginning of Oct, Nov, and Dec. She was very pleasant and said that she would check into this. It is Now Jan 2025 and I have not received the refund owed to me. I have no issue with the facility or staff at ******* Storage. It is the company that is either ignoring my request for a refund or refusing to pay without any indication.

      We are disappointed to hear about your experience. After conferring with our local team in ******, we discovered our staff had tried to contact you several times to obtain a new address to send you a refund without result. Thankfully, our team was able to reach you today and we are told you will be supplying contact information shortly. Your refund will be sent once we obtain a current address. We hope this will help restore your confidence in Mini Mall Storage for the future.

      After cancelling my storage locker in ******, ** late August 2024, I was charged for ******************** even after speaking to 3 separate employees who said they would make sure I wasn't charged again.I was told October 21st that refund cheques had been approved and it is now November 29th and I haven't received any cheques or word of progress on these refunds.I asked repeatedly to be issued the refunds back to my payment card as it is very unfair to have been "accidentally" charged $400 and I've now waited 3 months since the first charge, to get this money *******'s turned a fairly pleasant experience storing my belongings with this company, into a really maddening situation.

      Hello ****,

      We understand your frustration and want to remedy this situation. We are expediting your refund internally via cheque.With the current Canada Post strike we anticipate some delays in delivery however.

      We recommend reaching out to the Regional Operations Manager for that location, ****** ********* - ************** to further expedite this process and to ensure we have up-to-date contact information for you.

      We are disappointed your experience with Mini Mall Storage has gone awry, and wish to rectify the situation in any way we can.

      Whilst the response to this matter was said in good faith, it's actually useless due to the Canada Post strike and due to the 3 months I've already waited for 2 separate cheques to "get lost" in the mail.

      I also received a phonecall December 2nd saying they would finally offer me a direct deposit refund and a week later, still nothing.

      I had an annual rate for rv storage at this facility, but after receiving a notice that more charges were going to be added to my already prepaid rate, I gave them notice that I was moving out. I want the rent back that I had paid upfront. I have been promised that I would receive a refund, but after being more than patient, it appears that they are just hoping I will go away. Attached are the emails between us.

      Hello

      Mini Mall is committed to providing reliable and secure storage solutions, while maintaining competitive pricing in the market, but we have had to address the increasing operational costs influenced by recent global factors.

      We introduced these service fees to make sure we can continue to deliver a superior rental experience. It is normal policy that we do not prorate out or refund promotions when a customer moves out as stated in our lease. Despite that, we waived the fees in May to try and make this situation right with the customer.

      At the time of the customers move out, May 7th, 2024, we assumed we were parting ways in good faith. The customers term was to expire May 31st, 2024. Our team acted according to policy, and even went above and beyond in waiving **** fees.

      If the customer wished to speak further, we encourage him to reach out to us at **************************************** ************** so we can assist him better.

      Thank you.

      Complaint: 21991622

      I am rejecting this response because: As the email that I attached to the original complaint shows, mini mall storage acknowledged that I was paid up until June 30, 2024. They also know that I was NOT leaving on good terms as they were advised by me in the same email chain. The fees that they were trying to charge me, after I had already prepaid the rent in full for the year ending June 30, 2024, were for Payment processing fee and administration fee. I paid cash for the rental, so neither should apply anyway. It's just another way for large corporations to ***** everyone. I am also attaching a statement showing that they acknowledge I was paid up until June 20, 2024. as well as all the extra charges that they decided to add after the fact. I have tried to work this out with the local facility, but just keep getting the same response that it was sent in to head office. 

      This amount of money is certainly not going to decide my future, however, it is a matter of principle that good customers should never be treated like this. 

      Sincerely,

      To whom it may concern.My name is *****. And I'm writing you about an issue I've been having with a place in my home town about a refund of money I was suppose to get back and it's been since Dec . My mother had just passed away Oct 29th so I was having to pack all her stuff up and move it. So I decided to get a storage unit unlit spring/summer when I can better go through her stuff. So I ended up renting a storage unit at mini mall storage in **************. ** Dec 7th I got a moving truck and packed all her stuff in the truck and went to the storages. When I got there there was no one working on site and there was a lock on my storage. Im guessing one of their locks on there. But no one was there to help me. And I had to have the truck back that night so I stated getting worried on what I was going to do. I tried to call the company and of course no amswer. So I went on line and look up more storage unit around my town and found a storage unit up at U haul storage. And payed again with my debit and drove up there and unloaded. After I took the truck back I tried call mini mall storage again and finally got a hold of some and said I want a refund back for the storage I rented and didn't get to use. And I explained why and they said they normally don't do refunds but they can refund ****** and they couldn't refund the hold amount. Which the hole amount was $208.72 and $26.31 on Dec 7th 2023. Which was debited from my bank account. Which really ****** me off. But they said it wouldn't be put back into my account for 4 weeks which I thought was wired. So I've been waiting and it's now Feb 14. ****. And I keep calling them and I've ****** a hold of two people and they just patch me through to the ************** office and of course no one answers and I've left messages and still no response. It's bad enough that I have to deal with my mother just passing away and on top of that I have 5 kids and don't have the money to throw away. Please help me get my money.

      I have been renting stalls at this facility since 2009 when it was still **************** Self Storage. It was unfortunately bought out by mini mall self storage. Since that time things have gone downhill. In November 2023, someone tried to break into my enclosed trailer by punching / drilling the locks. I got it fixed and moved on with life. On December 15, 2023 I arrived at my trailer in what was supposed to be a secure facility to find my enclosed trailer had been broken into and my cinder blocks damaged. The **** were called and it was determined the son of another tenants vehicle was observed in the lot I use. I was told on December 31, 2023 by the **** that only half the cameras were working at the time. The management at mini mall told me the code had been disabled and if charges were laid, the person would be removed from the facility. On January 5, **** I attended the storage facility to get my enclosed trailer. This was at **** hrs and both my trailers were there at that time. I returned to the facility at **** hrs on the same date to find my entire dump trailer missing. It had been stolen from the yard. In speaking with the **** it has now been determined NONE of the cameras were recording on the day of the theft of my $15000 trailer. I have asked for a refund of my rent for the 3 months I have been victimized while parked there and them to cover my deductible. I done a ****** review and in response to this Constantios (regional manager) told me he saw my ****** review and if I took it down he would see about paying the deductible. There is no accountability for them and they are not offering what they advertise.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The attempts by the local Mini Mall to resolve the issue have been completely unprofessional.  I have lost more than $15,000.00 CAD in value from the facility's failure to have industry appropriate and reasonable security protocols, with NO functional camera system (at a STORAGE FACILITY), and so I am now pursuing all legal remedies available to me.  The fact that I was told to remove a ****** review in order to be paid my insurance deductible is disgusting and tells you that the only goal here is corporate greed and public perception.  I will not allow other patrons/tenants to endure this treatment so I will go public with this dispute with all local media conduits.

      Sincerely,

      I rented a 10x15 storage unit in April 2023, the first issue was they were charging my unit to another person's credit card. My contract states my payments are due the 15th of the month. They tried to continuously put payments on all different days. Dec 13th the took 55.65$ on Dec 14th they took 71.65$ on Dec 15th they took ******. I am only to pay ****** a month. Now on January 2nd they have taken 406.18$. We have received numerous emails of our payments being late we were told our stuff is up for auction. I went in today to be told that the main owner had blocked put the system changed everyone's payments to the 1st of every month we have had no notice. This has put us in financial strain. They Manger of the business is calling her manager cause the owners take no calls.

      Hello,

      The customer is confusing her move-in date ********** her payment date (1st), as reflected in her contract (attached). A representative will be reaching out to the customer to rectify this dispute.

      I have gone in several times and spoken to the office manager **** to have my payment date on the 15th. According to her that is my date. The first never worked for us. The storage unit was for the 15th and the outside unit for our boat was for the first. And I have bank statements to prove my big unit has always  been paid on the first. I spoke with **** on the 2nd and was informed the owner over rode the system and has changes all customers to tje first without informing anyone. And they still took 3 payments mid  month in Dec and a payment on the first

      I have been storing my items at this location for approximately 6 years. Mini Mall Storage recently purchased the location. Since they've taken over there has been 2 hikes in 3 months on thier rates. They make errors constantly with billing. They billed my unit for 3 months on someone else's credit card. The customer service individual ignored me and I had to leave a negative review on ****** just to get assistance. Now, they've sent me an email threatening late fees and haven't sent me an invoice. I reached out, albeit frustratingly with no response. I emailed *************************************************,the owner, again to no response. I want a proper invoice and an apology, and If I'm made to move my things they're to cover my costs incurred if they don't agree I will ****

      Hello *******,

      Your review leaves some details very one sided and despite ** working with you and providing you a credit to your account; you still prefer to publish this review avoiding some of the true facts and in turn not owning your responsibility with us as a tenant to provide appropriate contact information. 
      At this time we believe we have made every effort to provide you with satisfactory service, for further communication on the matter please work with our management team who are still willing to work with you on your concerns. 

      Thank you

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because:

      what facts have i left out?  You credited me in the past for poor service yes, this is not what this complaint is about.  Since that resolution your staff member has been rude and inconsistent in his/her duties as your representative.  I was accused of providing a fake screen shot for a payment. Then, after sending payments and each and every time, i was sent an email threatening late fees and threats to lock me out, despite paying.  These matters comtinued after your resolution, and your continued inability to accept this fact will mean that this better business complaint will remain on your record.
