We were supposed to move in to unit 188 at Prominence Apartments aka ******************* on 4/28/23. It was absolutely infested with cockroaches. They said in writing on 4/29/23 we would be issued a refund within 21 business days. We have not received the refund. They have failed to respond to email. We are owed $812.70. They should also be reported to the health department and should absolutely not have an A+ rating on the BBB.Business response

When I moved in August 2022 I was sold because the website lists the following "We offer a state-of-the-art fitness center with spin and Zumba classes, cooking classes." However, I can't get them to respond to when they will be having these classes. COVID is now OVER so that is no longer an excuse that they can use.Business response

I have been a resident for 3 years. I first moved into a unit that was never cleaned or repaired after the previous tenants. I found mold covering the kitchen and bathroom cabinets. I was moved to a new unit within a week and the second day in the new unit I found a similar mold problem. My kitchen was sealed off for 2 weeks and I had no hot water. I was told I would receive a credit for the moving fees and Inconvenience of not having a kitchen or hot water for two weeks. My account was credited only to have the credits removed and then a past due balance and late fees added to my account. A year later a neighbors gas dryer vent started leaking into my stairwell and guest bathroom. This was setting off carbon monoxide alarms in the apartment. I sent the manager thermal video of the leaks, hired mold professionals to test the air and found mold in the samples. The management told me the problem did not exist for months all while my health continued to decline. Now I have heart problems from the exposure. Again I was told that the management would reimburse me for mold testing and they said they would offer another unit when it comes up. This was one year ago in 2022. I have been offered one unit that was smaller and wouldnt fit my belongings and also had a mold issue inside the bathroom which caused me health issues just previewing the unit I had to walk outside to avoid reacting further to the toxic mold. To date Prominance has $2,000 in reimbursement they promised on writing. I had HEPA filter that was damaged during a attempted repair on the dryer leak. Management said I would be reimbursed for that also. I have not been reimbursed any expenses promised. Instead my account has a past due balance for the amount I was told I would be reimbursed in emails from the complex management team. Not one member of staff but several! I am a disabled person on social security otherwise I would get an attorney. Corporate office is also non existent.Business response

I contacted the manager multiple times regarding incomplete repairs.Business response

We are still perplexed by your work order requests. On over 10 occasions and recently you have reported multiple repair items including black mold. When we reach out, you will not allow us to do the repairs. Recently, we served a 24 hour notice to fix repairs you emailed us about. We pleaded with you to let us fix them and you did not allow access.
Please send us a list of everything you want us to fix and a time we can enter. We want to fix anything that needs to be fixed.Initial Complaint

I am reaching out with a request for help. I am currently an ****************** who just was given orders and moved to ******** from the ********* area. Prominence Apartments in ********** have failed to allow me the opportunity to call back and are trying to charge my family and I move out fees upon our departure. While it may not seem like a huge issue, it has been multiple weeks of us trying to contact them and it is affecting my family because were in limbo about whether we have to pay and how to even pay these supposed move out fees. Further, we were originally told we wouldnt have anything to pay as there was a credit, deposit and other friend referral bonuss that were never paid out on the apartments end. It is unfair, and I dont know any other optionsBusiness response
