What customers are saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in West Columbia.

They are willing to understand and do everything they can to help you keep what you have when you get in a bind. The two gentlemen I have been dealing with TJ and Will did not make me feel embarrassed nor did they get ugly or sarcastic with me. This was my first time having to do a rent to own and I needed to do living room furniture and a TV. Unfortunately at the time I couldn’t do but one big item so I went with the furniture and went with the TV through Aaron’s. I am in the same situation now and asked Aaron’s to help me and to be understanding needless to say Terry with Aaron’s was rude, sarcastic and didn’t want to help anyone. My point RENT-A-CENTER is will to help and does care about their customers.
