Subrina Hobbick (Sabbs)
Love my local RAC!!! I’ve been a customer here for a long time, and I love that it’s been the same friendly faces since day one. The staff is incredibly nice, compassionate, and truly understanding. If you’re going through a rough patch and need a little extra time on a payment, they will actually work with you. That said, don't mistake their kindness for weakness. At the end of the day, it's a business & if you don't communicate or make your payments, they will act like any other creditor, and they have every right to…. If you stay on top of your end, you’ll have a fantastic experience. We have a great professional relationship and I highly recommend this location! 10/10 💯
