“This experience caused unnecessary stress and financial hardship. Repeated failures to address defective merchandise, improper billing, and continued collection attempts despite unresolved issues show a lack of accountability. Customers should not have to fight to have contracts honored or to receive basic customer service. This company is a fraud……

The Ithaca rent a center has been the best one by far that iv ever dealt with. Their staff is beyond amazing. They are very respectful and compassionate. They are so understanding and helpful when things get tough. I would and do recommend this store to everyone I know. If I could give 10 stars I would hands down!!

So I have been with Ithaca Rent-A-Center for a while now, years might I add! I loved this place and doing businesse with them until they stopped caring about their customers and Only the Money they bring in, I have Never been late and Always pay off early. I am happy to say I am all payed off but sad to say I will never be back to this store again they have change to many people there! And it's going down hill everyone is becoming clueless! I payed off my washer My dryer and My bed that all have insurance , when I went to pay off my couches early at that , they said would I like to pay more to have insurance on them, wait hold on I then said " the whole reason i come here is to have Insurance on our stuff and great deals and without that there is no reason for me to come here anymore!
