By god just don't, staff is great once they got you renting something, though now its you're 30 seconds late on a payment because WE removed your auto pay so we are going to make harassing calls to you while at work and when told not to call during work hours its "oh we will call non stop its company policy". besides the place is a sham charging 3x the price some of the items retail for. save your money and go elsewhere I'll likely be returning my item and taking my money elsewhere where I'll get treated like a person not a meal ticket for a low skill sales rep trying to make commission.

I tell you what this has been the best experience working with Rent-A-Center. You get ahead of the ball game when deals come out and they’re very communicative. I love the customer service that I get every time I go and especially with holidays around the corner, hiding what needs to be hid lol Got a last-minute gift and didn’t want the little one to see and they sure came through for me!!! I highly recommend this Rent-A-Center to anybody Happy holidays

Drew at the store was amazing. Great customer service. Took the time to go through what to expect and when delivery would be. The delivery guys were really good too. Took the time to check out where I wanted my stove to be placed and even though my home is old and dinged up they took the time to be careful with the delivery

Gaige is awesome, we wouldn’t have bought the couch if it wasn’t for him. The two gentlemen, who Delivered and set up my sofa are also wonderful. Everyone was polite, professional and knowledgeable.

I work crazy retail hours and after 20 years, my old reliable fridge decided to quit working. New Year's Eve Eve, my husband and I showed up 10 minutes before closing time since it was the only time we had found to stop in. Doors were locked and we tried looking in through the window when an employee noticed us. Andrew went over and above to make sure we were set up for when the store was open the next business day. We are scheduled for delivery on our new fridge and we greatly appreciate Andrew's help with the paperwork to get us set up after the holiday as quickly as possible. If you need furniture, appliances big & small, cellphone, computer of any kind; this rent to own store is a very polite, knowledgeable and willing to work with customers. A 5 star experience

How is it when I have a complaint about the new "manager" and call corporate that have THAT MANAGER call me back? Of course he won't agree he has done anything wrong. I had such a great experience with Rent A Center when I first started using them 7 months ago. However, now it is awful. They even went so far as to change a contract with me, on a USED couch and try to charge me full retail price. They won't "fix" that until my past due items are paid. (Which I tried to pay over the phone to Kenneth and Destiny and they said they could not take the payment) Long story short, RUN from this store until they get someone in who can clean up the messes. And, Brian, if you are the one replying... it is incredibly unprofessional to call the person who made a complaint about you and tell them you are the only one who will be able to talk to me. Surely, you have a boss. Edit: I received a call from Nick, a regional manager. He took the time to listen, and we came up with a solution to the issue in just a few minutes. Good customer service goes a long way. Unfortunately I have decided not to use the rent a center in Champaign for any future business I am happy a few good employees remain.
