    My daughter was visiting a friend and parked to help her friend move some furniture. It was late…read moreat night. She came out to find the boot on her car. She had difficulty reaching me since I was on a business trip and did not have enough left on her debit card to unlock the boot. This could have been an extremely dangerous situation for a young woman in the dark late at night. My daughter has dropped the boot off in the 'container' but the company website is awful. $160 for parking in the wrong place at a private apartment complex is ridiculous. I will be calling the complex to complain about their security company in the morning. Update: I spoke with two ladies at this security company. I have updated my review to 3 stars for the security company after finding out they also are not happy with the policy of immobilizing cars late at night. Apparently, Campus View Apartments in Allendale is responsible for this policy of immobilizing cars with the barnacle and requiring these kids to have a credit card number to remove it. It sounds like Campus view makes $60 every time they immobilize a car in the parking lot. I will be calling Campus View management in the morning to complain about the safety issue. This could have gone quite differently if her friend had not been there, if they could not have reached me by phone, if the weather had been dangerous, if my daughter did not have a charged cell phone, and if someone with bad intent had chosen to take advantage of a vulnerable situation, late at night.

    The practices of this company appear highly predatory, particularly toward college students who…read moremake up the majority of residents in these apartment complexes. Last night, a guest of mine was booted despite the fact that I had created a valid visitor parking pass. When I disputed the charge, I was told that the pass was created "nearly 25 minutes after enforcement was completed." However, there is no way for residents to view the actual enforcement timestamp or enter the violation number to verify this information independently. Additionally, the company refuses to discuss disputes over the phone and will only communicate via email. A simple grace period or warning system could easily prevent situations like this. For example, residents could receive a notification stating that a visitor pass must be created within a certain timeframe before enforcement actions are taken. Instead, vehicles are immediately booted, resulting in a $65 fee with no warning whatsoever. Considering it is summer and many students have left for break, parking availability is abundant. At 7:00 a.m. this morning, I counted more than 20 open spaces near my building alone. This enforcement does not appear to address a parking shortage; it appears designed primarily to generate revenue. What is even more concerning is that booting vehicles and collecting fees seems to be a higher priority than providing actual security for residents. Many residents, including myself, currently feel safer having guests stay with us due to an ongoing "Peeping Tom" issue that has affected my building and surrounding buildings since September. Last week, deputies from the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office came door-to-door regarding an attempted break-in at a neighboring unit that was believed to be connected to this individual. Despite these ongoing safety concerns, I have never observed Absolute Security actively monitoring the area. Residents deserve a security company that prioritizes safety and crime prevention over aggressive parking enforcement. Given the repeated complaints from tenants, the lack of transparency, the absence of any reasonable grace period, and the apparent focus on collecting fees from students, these practices warrant serious scrutiny.
