The biggest problem is with parking. I didn't even go inside because of the parking. DO NOT PATRONIZE BECAUSE THEY USE WHEEL BLOCKERS. A COMPLETE SHAM.
I told the WHEEL BLOCKERS "employee," who would only tell me his name is "J" (something the nearby stores said is not the truth) that I was on my way INTO the HIGH LIFE store whose lot it was (2 minutes after parking). He told me simply that I could give him 50 dollars cash or debit or have my car towed. He cited a city ordinance as his reason for not being able to remove the boot due to my impending patronage of HIGH LIFE. I called the city and the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department. The only "ordinance" involved was their ability to post signage. The first lie. I scrounged in my car for dollar bills to collect $50 to get the boot removed before he left. "J" then put the cash in his cargo pants pocket, wrote me a receipt (misspelling the word "cash") and took several minutes to retrieve the removal tools from his filthy 1992 Pontiac. I came back 20 minutes later, after calling the city and the police, to see him PARKED on the city SIDEWALK, waiting to do the same thing to another person. When I called the "WHEEL BLOCKERS" line, the "manager" answered. He was immediately rude and started LYING from the first second. I informed him that I would be filing this complaint and he told me to make sure I included that I "used a company's parking spot without shopping there." I will include that but only to emphasize that I was ON MY WAY INTO HIGH LIFE as the BOOT WAS PUT ON MY CAR 1 FOOT FROM THE PUBLIC STREET. I would have shopped at HIGH LIFE and fully planned on it, if this scary dude had not placed a boot on my car and lied to my face. Wheel Blockers claim they work for the private stores. When I called HIGH LIFE, they said Wheel Blockers work for the city. There is nothing but shady lies and what amounts to extortion. This "company" AND HIGH LIFE are a joke and their employees are rude, disrespectful, and liars. I will never patronize a company that leases out to Wheel Blockers, and after just a few hours, at least 10 of my friends and family members will not either. AVOID THIS HIGH LIFE AT ALL COST. LIARS AND EXTORTIONS.
