Customer reviews
Poor communication, terrible customer service. I was screamed at over issues they were responsible for and then they provided lies to cover it up. General Manager called me to try to smooth things over, but was unsuccessful. He also claimed he was not at the store when all of this happened so either he is lying, or one of his associates that I dealt with has the same uncommon name he has. I would avoid this place at all costs. To address the response to this review by the company, I have already reached out and was told a DM would contact me. That hasn't happened, so no point contacting again, providing all the same information, and continuing to wait for nothing.
Tried calling them a few times to make a payment, no one answers the phone. But they’ll harrass you if you miss a payment 🤔. So weird
I’ve been renting from Aaron’s for 11 months now. So far rented a washer and dryer, a dishwasher and a ps5. The process to rent is so smooth and easy. Every employee here I have interacted with has been extremely polite and made the experience more joyful. Thankfully I have been able to pay my bill on time and early since starting with them so I can’t say how they are when you’re late on payments yet but so far my experience has been great. I look forward to continuing renting from this Aaron’s.
Non stop harassment will sit and bang on my door at 9pm at night while my kids are trying to sleep. This is harassment I advised my children to call the police next time this happens. I want to return the furniture but when they call me back they never leave a message. They have to work around my schedule not show up when they feel like it
I had to make a return and the sales manager lizzy didn't think i could but she called her general manager just to make sure and was able to do that for me. Especially after having made the sale herself in the store to me she was she was very kind on the phone not rude or mad at all about the return. Freaking awesome 👌
Wonderful customer service from the General Manager Joan . He was from the time I spoke to him & even went into the store very polite , friendly and knowledgeable. There was an issue with my furniture ( that I absolutely love ) that he went out of his way to properly explain & make right . He exceeded my expectations in the whole matter . Not once was he rude , impatient , frustrated during my many phone calls to him . He is the epitome of what a General Manager & customer service should be like . He is most definitely an improvement over the prior Management they had there ! Kudos to you Joan !!!!
