So where do I start, let's start by stating that I have wasted a day and a half waiting for a delivery. Got text clearly stating that my delivery would be on Wednesday between 1-3, made sure I was home by NOON as not too miss the delivery, called the store at 4:30 was told I wasn't even on the schedule and they didn't have what I was looking for anyhow. So, another delivery was set up for both reclining loveseat and reclining sofa, which were located at another store, this store was called to see what condition it was in and was told it was GOOD. Another date was set for this delivery, again I got a text stating that my delivery was set for 10a.m. - Noon. Again made certain that I was home for this delivery, 11:30 rolls around and I called just to get an update on a time frame for arrival, was told that unfortunately I was now pushed back to 3pm so I waited around all day 3:45 rolls around so I called again was told it was happening now. The delivery driver calls me at 4:30 with the delivery, there are 2 trucks so I'm thinking the sofa is in one and the loveseat is in the other, couldn't get so lucky! They had only the loveseat which was quoted as "good" condition. NO SOFA, so he starts to take the loveseat out and I can instantly see the claw marks on the side and the URINE STAIN going down on one side. The guys both saw the fraying and the staining going down the side. If this is good condition, I'd hate to see what acceptable or fair condition is. I refused the delivery. This has been a TOTAL TRAIN WRECK! The delivery guys were very understanding and helpful, but I'm not sure if I really want to continue to do business with these guys anymore.
Let me start off by saying I put a lot of thought on this review but ultimately, people need to know to stay away from this one and use a different RAC. I have never met a more vile, vicious, and rude person as the one who runs this location. She makes fun of the disabled, schedules things knowing full well that you’re going to be late and then says “oh well, you figure it out.” I have filed a complaint with the 800 support team. I don’t know if she is just going through a rough patch or it’s her natural nature..but she should NOT be in customer service with the attitude she gives.
Enid was absolutely amazing! Her customer service went above and beyond my expectations. She was patient, attentive, and made sure all my questions were answered with a smile. It’s rare to find someone so kind, professional, and genuinely dedicated to helping customers. Enid made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable—I truly appreciate her outstanding service. She deserves recognition for the wonderful job she’s doing!
Enid at the Bristol location is absolutely amazing!!! I was have a little hardship and Enid gave me some great options!! She is always professional, helpful and so very understanding!!! So grateful for her and her staff!!!! 10/10 stars!!!
The staff and the manager Enid are amazing. I had some trouble keeping up due to job loss from government funding cuts and she worked out an amazing deal to get me back on track. Truly grateful for this support and their kindness and understanding is immeasurable. Thank you Enid and Bristol Rent-A-Center staff!
