Russell spoke about his bikes with me and gave an excellent impression of himself.
As I wanted to use my bike on occasion there seemed no problem with my doing so,I parked my car where instructed and returned my bike at the end of my ride.
The first time I began to wonder about Russell was when my wife dropped me off and parked outside the gates to make sure everything was ok with the bike.A friend of mine arrived to meet me, again,outside the gates, he saw my wife and pulled his bike alongside her car for a quick Hello,I exited the gates and saw Russell striding across his frontage where he confronted my wife and my friend telling them in no uncertain terms that they were not allowed to stop there and chat and all sorts of rubbish about causing an accident !!
We duly departed and on my return later that day I pulled onto the front of the furniture place next door and lit a cigarette as I sometimes do when returning from a ride. Five minutes hadn't elapsed before Russell came storming across and told me I was not allowed to smoke there,I explained that I didn't know it was on his property and he pointed to signs saying No Smoking,I thought it applied to inside his storage area, he said it was all his and told me to put out my cigarette, this was not a friendly conversation and he was quite threatening ! Anyhow I put out the cigarette and took my bike in the gates and put it away.
On yet another occasion,I had to take my bike out and was unable to return it that evening for personal reasons.At 10.30pm the same night I received a text from Russell saying it was not allowed to leave my car there overnight,I explained the reason why I hadn't returned and apologised, not knowing I wasn't allowed !The next morning I received yet another text saying no one had parked there overnight for the past 50 years !!!
As far as I can ascertain, he hasn't had the storage business for 50 years !! He went on to threaten to charge me £60 for overnight parking and ranted on saying he'd only had 3 hours sleep worrying and had searched the compound to make sure I wasn't still stuck in there or laying injured somewhere ! WHAT !!!!! He couldn't possibly have believed I was in the compound as I had passed through the gate with my numbers put into the keypad, what did he think I'd done, climbed over his gates to have a walk around ??
As a few others have stated on reviews, this man is a control freak I really believe he sits at his house (which is the one next to the compound ) watching everything people do ! Its more like a concentration camp than a storage facility ! He makes up the rules as he goes along and is a very overpowering person indeed . I believe he may have a personality problem, he has even had a go at a friend of mine who stores at the facility for speeding over the speed ramps !! WHAT !! How the hell can anyone speed over the amount of ramps he has installed ?? There would be nothing left of ones belongings if they sped in that place !!
It is a very clean place and excellent storage is available but God help you if you put a foot wrong, no friendly conversation no polite advice, just confrontation and threats !!
No more business from me Russell,not even if it was bloody free, you are a vile man and need help !!
