Moving Pod Company Charging for Unperformed Pickup and Adding Monthly Fees

PODS charged a customer for a pickup that never occurred, rescheduled three times, then added a full monthly storage fee despite their own service failure. Customers have no leverage mechanism when logistics companies bill for services not rendered. No consumer tool exists to challenge service-failure billing automatically.
