Pros:
The pickup was great. The O'Fallon branch was super helpful friendly and efficient.Cons:
The williamsburg office is closed. Like until further noticed closed. I tried to call the number left on the door and there was no answer or option to speak to someone. I am still hoping I am going to be getting my 200$ hold back. I left the keys in the box like instructed but not sure how they will know.3,6 Poor
