    Our family has been renting Unit 2109 from Secure Self Storage since December 2023. Everything was fine, until my mom's visit on October 18th where she noticed everything was out of place and disorganized. At this point we knew something was wrong. I advised my mom to close it again, and approach management to report. When we approached management, we were advised to go back and take further inspection. That is when we realized items were indeed stolen. Items were vintage designer bags, jewelry and optical frames. We filed an incident report for insurance claim, where the Property Manager said it will be escalated from there. Didn't hear from them until my recent reach out Dec 30th of this year - and now they are claiming too much time has passed and it will just be considered lost of goods. Between the incident report and today - no formal communication has been done by their management. Hoping you could provide guidance on this matter.

    Thank you for reaching out regarding the burglary  claim. As part of our standard claims process, we require receipts or proof of purchase for the items listed in the claim. Unfortunately, we have not yet received the necessary documentation to substantiate the missing items, which prevents us from moving forward with the claim. We have communicated this requirement to *** ********* on several occasions, but as we have not received the requested receipts, we are unable to process the claim at this time. Due to the lack of cooperation and the time from which claim was made, we must consider this claim closed. There is no further action that can be taken on our part.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

    The Business's claim that they've communicated the requirement on several occasions is false. After sending the email complaint to the business, and getting their response, I asked for them to provide proof that they requested further documentation from us. I did not receive a reply despite following-up twice.

    On November 8th, the Property Manager had called me , explaining that they've dealt with the police report. After the call, I've also asked for documentation, and did not receive any response.
