Stor-age unreasonable rental increases

I have been a tenant at the Durban City branch of Stor-age for the past 5 years. Over this time, Stor-age has and does increase rental after 3 months from a previous increase, or any other time less than 12 months after a previous increase. The increase amounts are not minor and can be anything up to 12% of the current rental amount. Stor-age is doing this because they are well-aware that tenants cannot just up and leave if they are unhappy with the service provided, and amounts to ******ion. They always mention rising costs as if that gives them the the license to ****** money from hapless tenants. Is there a body similar to an ombud that we can complain to to stop this practice?

Thanks for taking the time to write to us. As you will be aware, we had actually halted an increase on your rental in the past. We believe that our team has been in touch to discuss this with you. If you have any further questions, please do reach out to our store directly. Thanks, Stor-Age.
