Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Portsmouth.

I have rented from this location for almost 20 years. Paid off more than 27 different items. Yes it always costs more than buying straight out but they are offering credit at easy payments so you should expect that. I have always paid on time and never had any issues with any of the staff, pay your bills as due and you will have zero problems as well. Always have received great service, they even ran me over a new dryer at the very last minute when I needed it after my dryer broke at 4:30 in the afternoon.

Where is Evelyn or Mike?! Those are the only two I like to deal with. Them other rude unprofessional dudes can carry them attitudes somewhere else and go get more training. I have paid things off with them, but I recently told them come get there stuff. After the experience I had a few minutes ago with the associate hanging up in my ear before I could even respond back to him...Just talked to Evelyn, her and Mike always go above and beyond to take care of their customer's. I appreciate them both!!

I had an Amazon return and it was 10 minutes to closing. Even though they were preparing to close the young man assisted me. He went above and beyond for customer service.
