Really terrible company

Really terrible company, they should really offer a 0 star rating in here as it would be more accurate. Unfortunately I’m using ready steady store as I need storage and there are no other options as they have a monopoly but if there was another company I would happily move over.

5/5 Stars – Outstanding service!

I had a fantastic experience using Ready Steady Store in Doncaster. The facility is very clean, secure, and very easy to access. A special mention has to go to the reception staff—they were absolutely excellent and helped me out massively with getting a room setup! They made the whole process smooth, stress-free, and straightforward. I couldn't have asked for better customer service. Highly recommended to anyone looking for hassle-free storage in Doncaster!

Great branch service, but beware of misleading verbal offers and rigid support

When I opened my account nearly a year ago, the experience was great, and the team in the local branch was fantastic. However, it is amazing how quickly things can change once you run into an issue with central customer support.

I recently submitted a vacate notice to leave. On a call, an advisor mentioned that an offer of 4 weeks at half price was always available to me, without mentioning any hidden clauses or timing restrictions. When I accepted the offer, they suddenly claimed that because my latest invoice (£80.99) was generated that day, they couldn't amend it and the discount could only apply to the *next* billing cycle. Moving the goalposts after a verbal offer makes me hesitant to trust their transparency.

Communication has been equally disappointing. I requested an escalation to a senior manager strictly via email to keep a written record. A manager attempted to call instead, and a week later, I still haven't received the requested email response. It's a shame because the local branch staff were brilliant. Still, due to rigid billing policies, questionable verbal offers, and slow management follow-up, I will likely be moving my business elsewhere.

Thank you for the detailed feedback, and for recognising the efforts of our local branch team - we'll pass that on.

We take the concerns about the billing offer and the delay in a written response seriously, and these aren't the standards we hold ourselves to. Please contact us directly with your account details so we can investigate properly and respond in writing, as originally requested. Thank you.

Pros

Pros
Simple to set up, flexible access hours and if you need no frills storage I dont think you could ask for much more.

Cons
If you want a "local" or "personal" experience with helfpul people on hand look elsewhere- not that anyone is rude or stand offish but going in the office makes you feel like youre bothering them and when you call the "local" number it just directs to the customer service department who are fine at best but have limited local knowledge.

Biggest con is the app, new app came out towards the end of my contract and it was a disaster, never worked again for me and to be honest i was glad to see the back of it.

Thank you for the review, and happy you found our simple setup and flexible access hours - that's exactly what we aim for.
We're sorry to hear the experience didn't feel more personal, and that calls routed to customer service felt limited on local knowledge. That's useful feedback we will share with the team.
