I rented a unit from Prime storage…
I rented a unit from Prime storage located on 1155 Powers Ferry place; Marietta, GA on 10/19/2025 at a special discounted rate of $114. after 2 months of renting the unit, I was sent an email stating that there was a price adjustment of $100. When I went to check my credit card statement for the month of February is when I became aware of the charge for $214 on my credit card (which I did not authorize). i had not seen the email until 02/21/2025 after I was told by the GM(Adam) to vacate the premises after he received a complaint about a water leakage from their facility into my unit. I complained about this issue on multiple occasions to the previous GM and other staff members, but nothing was ever done. I was offered to move to another unit; however, they were not willing to pay for the move even though the issue was due to the non maintenance of their facility. Why would they think that it is fair that the tenant pays for the costs for moving to another unit when it is the facility's fault? After speaking to an assistant manager in person and showing him the damage to my rent; he stated that he was aware of the water leakage issues and that they were aware of it before the unit was rented to me, but he thought that the issue was fixed. I have also found a review/complaint on the BBB website regarding the same water leakage issue back in 2023. There are laws in Georgia (the Georgia House Bill-H.B.811 that protects customers from predatory practices from Storage facilities. What they have done to me is considered to be illegal and a breach of contract (i.e. price gouging before a calendar year is up and failure to warn tenant of facility issues) to name a few. The new GM (Adam) has decided to lie on me to say that I declined to move to another unit, when I simply requested that they pay for the cost of moving (which they declined). I used my renters insurance to file a claim (which I pay for monthly); seemingly, they believe that they are the ones who paid out my claim. I was forced to obtain their third party renters insurance before renting out a unit with them which has also violated the H.B.811 law since it is no longer required. Now, I am being financially inconvenienced to move out of the unit and to find another storage facility which will cost me at least $1,000 to find movers, a UHaul and the cost of renting another unit all because they refused to fix their water leakage on their roof. The GM (Adam) was very unprofessional in handling this matter and took no accountability for what has happened and the distress that this has caused me.
