This location never informed me they didnt deliver out of state until my order came in and the new sales manager would do nothing helpful. They made a mistake by agreeing to lease me with my address listed. The website has a delivery date set. But they want me to pick it up. These are shady people that dont have accountability for their workers and are disrespectful to clients. I will not take business to any RAC now because this could have all been handled simply 19 days ago when i last spoke to them and all was good.

Customer service is a joke. Everyone else has been extremely rude. I was told benefits plus would help if I was ever out of work and needed to be late etc so tell me why I’m paying for it and when I was in the hospital for a month straightand asked to be a few days late I’m getting harassing texts and calls about coming to get my couch. But when I bring up benefits plus I’m ignored. Then I ask for it to be removed from my account since it’s not there to help as I was initially instructed. Guess what ignored again. Then just a few mins ago I’m called and asked if I need anything, I say yes benefits plus removed because and tell the story. The guy immediately starts cutting me off saying oh yea you don’t need it and to have a nice day. Excuse me what? Let me finish what I’m saying. The proceeds to try to get off the Phone while I’m still trying to talk. Unacceptable behavior. I needed to get some appliances and other living room furniture at the end of the month but it will not be with y’all.

They sent Anthony out to help move a fridge for me and my wife today,he was faced with rough enviroment and no porch But went completely above and beyond and completed the task happily. Including picking a entire refrigerator up from the ground by hand and hoisting it into the door with me. I'm so thankful for his help,he saved us so many troubles today without any complaints at all. Thank y'all so much!

They offer insurance and promise the use of a loaner while they repair an item that their fixing. Well when our dryer broke, it took them a week to get someone out here to pick it up and the loaner they sent they wound up taking back with them and leaving nothing, because the loaner wouldn't work when the delivery guy hooked it up. We were told then he'd be back with another one within 2 days. Well here it is a week from that day and guess what? Still no dryer! 2 weeks no dryer but yet they still want their FULL payments! Other than this they actually are great, good staff and very nice. But I'm upset about my dryer situation!
