Why they charged me more money when I wasn’t late for my weekly payment?

So i never really had an issue with them before about late payments. My pay periods do not fall on payment weeks so i started paying every two weeks. This has NEVER been an issue before until today. I understand that i signed a contract stating i will pay “X” amount on “XX” days so i am aware of my responsibilities. However, things come up. Emergencies are emergencies for a reason. When i spoke to the store assistant manager he wasn’t friendly what’s so ever. I let him know that i spoke with a young lady named Jessena last week who confirmed it was ok to pay next week two payments. He stated if i couldn’t pay by Friday they would have to pick up the product. It is unfair that i have always paid my bill (although it’s been late before) but get threatened to have my items picked up when it was an error on the employee and not the customer. I am not sure if they are under new management but if so this is horrible customer service. Thank you.
