Everyone in the store is nice and very knowledgeable except for a short Spanish guy. He is disrespectful and doesn’t know what he is doing. He automatically set me up for auto pay without my consent and I witnessed him asking a customer for her debit card pin. That’s is very unacceptable and he either needs to be retrained or let go. His customer service is bad, he curses around the customers and he doesn’t care. I hope the district manager reads this and takes action on this employee.

The people here are the rudest, least helpful, and unprofessional staff I've ever dealt with. I got harassing phone calls the day my payments were due. They were at my door if I was 1 day late with my payment. They would leave messages on my phone pretending to speak Spanish (my voicemail language is Spanish) all this after 1 day of missing a payment! If you are looking to make a purchase go elsewhere!

The worst place to do business no one seems to know what they’re doing there. When you ask them a question no one seems to know. They will call you and tell you complete opposite things all in the same day. I’m pretty sure they are pocketing money when I made my first payment they asked that I give them a portion in cash and the rest on my card that would be charged monthly when they gave me my receipt it was only for my card and my starting payment was listed for a lot lower than what they told me I also witnessed them buying food stamps from someone walking in so I wouldn’t put it past them to pocket my cash. The only way to get any help in this store is by calling the district manager nobody else is good for anything.
