Aaron's Bad communication

I have purchased a few appliances from this company and they do not stand behind their word. They change management so often it is hard for them to know what is going on. They have you wait all day for them to pick something up and do not show. They forgot so you have to arrange to be there tommorrow or the next day. You pay enough for their crap that they can at least be there promptly. I will finish paying off the refrigerator and will never refer anyone there again. Because of poor management.

Aaron's Demand on payment for dead horse

To whom it may concern, We where renting to own a stackable washer/dryer combo and the day it was delivered the men where having trouble getting it in to our mobile home into the bathroom from the back door.Well first all when they bought it up the steps the one person lost his balance and fell backwards and the item fell on top of him, my husband and i helped to get it off him. Then they put it into the bathroom scratched up and bang up. Any how wwe paid faithfully 4 months when the washer stoped working it took them a month to get out here to check it out, then they said we had the line down to far in the pipe which they hookedit up and it worked just fine for a while then the water just kept going threw the tub it would not stay filled up! then after that was so called fixed the dryer went compute, it made such a real loud noise then we heard caboom the dryer wheel screws feel out of the wheel when we thought may be it was the belt,We Called them trhe day before my 50.00 payment was due we have been trying since december 1 to get some one out here to look at it but all we did was get the run around.and calling numbers and telling them if we dont pay we have broken contract.what gives them the right to call reference #.They broke the contract we didnt!How are we in fault?One sales person don"t know what the other is doing!

Ok well I have recently rented a 48'' TV from Aaron's. I have had the tv for almost 6 months. Well for the first time I was late on a payment. For the first few days no one had been calling or coming by so I knew I was fine. Well one night about 8 something a couple of guys came by and asked that I pay something.

Aaron's Discrimination and illegal activity!

I am a formal employees of the Aarons store in Coolidge. The reason why I am a formal employee is because I refused to take part in any illegal activity in the store. The General manger had several illegal copies of movies that were not even out yet as well as movies that had sex scenes and vulgar language. I explained to the GM that I did not think that it was right to have this in the store, she did not remove them and continued playing the movies. i called the Aarons complaint line and reported the incident. She was confronted and was advised to remove, which she did but what concerns me is that maybe I should have called the police. Her illegal, unethical behavior continued. She was taking money out of the till and we were always short. She discriminated against Blacks and called them nasty "N" and if one were to fill out an application she tore it up and threw it away. Once a Muslim women applied for a job and again the application was thrown away and her comment was - "this is a law suit waiting to happen. I do not want those kind of people working for me." There was so much more happening in that store and it seems that no matter how high up I placed my complaint - I was not heard. She is the most unprofessional person I have ever come across. She has even gone as far as advertise and speak openly about her sex life and relationship with another manager based in California. For a job that only paid 9.00 an hour it was not worth my time any longer. I hope that this complaint gets to the appropriate person who will actually investigate my concerns. This person is running a business in my community and I do not think she should be here.

Aaron's Harassment of children

Please dont buy from Aaron's Sales & Lease. I leased from them in 2002 at the Lancaster, S.C. store. Paid off three items. I have made it known to them every month I have two disable sons and I am at dr. or hospital alot. They may not hear from me for days, but I will always pay my payment before the other payment is due. The day after due date they start calling, harassing my children by telling them they are coming to get our furniture. They upset my children and get them crying. This is very unprofessional business.

You should never have agreed on a contract to repay if you are so STUPID! They have to be partially to blame for being dumb enough to let you have the stuff anyway. YOUR PROBLEMS ARE NOT THEIRS, GET OFF YOUR LAZY @SS AND PAY YOUR FRIGGIN BILLS U MAGGOTT!

I was employed at this exact Aaron's for almost a year. I quit in November 2007.

I know from working there, that as long as you call and let them know when you are going to be in to make your payment, they will put in a "promise" for that date which lets them know not to call until that date has passed. Granted, you may have told them about your situation, but you can't expect them to remember. We had over nine hundred active customers when I left. As long as you call and aren't trying to ### them over...there is a lot that they can do for you. Usually if you pay within the month, or before your NEXT due date, you are good. They can also rewrite your agreement or give you a service extension. Communication is key, and if you don't communicate with Aaron's about where you are as far as your payment goes every month (before you're late), then that interferes with the business relationship. There are too many people that go into Aaron's, pick out a 73" HDILA, make one payment, and then move states away...never to be heard from again. You can't expect for Aaron's to just know you're going to come in...it's all about communication.

Aaron's Horrible customer service!

I have worked in the customer service field for 10 years and never had I experienced what I experienced with Aarons furniture general manager named Keith. This store is located in Columbia South Carolina on 2 notch road. I recently gave birth to a baby, I work full time and attend graduate school full time. My computer blew up so I needed another one in a hurry. My appointment time was suppose to be from 1-5. My computer wasn't delivered until 6:30. I understand things happen. But it would have made sense to call me and let me know they would be delivering the merchandise late. I called three times that day and no one informed me the delivery man ran into complications and would be late. I wanted to voice how dissatisfied I was with the service. I only have 2 days off. With this two day i need to take care of bills, buy groceries ect. the general manage informed me that I shouldn't have called and I must have been expecting a problem. He is an complete idiot! How can someone like that be a general manager. After this, I will NEVER, I mean NEVER get anything from Aarons. I will also inform everyone I know about their terrible customer service. If I didn't need to finish my paper for school and wasn't pressed for time to get my daughter I would have canceled the order. I HATE AARONS!

I leased a sectional from Aarons. I’ve been making payments on them for about 18 months. I was late this month, so a young lady calls my home being extremely rude as if I was a criminal that tried to rob them. I told her that this month was a bit hard for me and that I couldn’t come up with the payment for a couple of day. She tells me that it sounds like a personal problem so I ask to speak to the manager. She tells me how she is going to have her "guys" pick it up in five minutes. When she transferred the call over, the manager picks up and says "yes?” I asked his name and he turns around and says "well you asked to speak to me, you know who I am". Wow! How rude can they be? Well I know we were back and forth because I couldn’t make the payment on time. He tells me on how that’s not there problem and I should go and burrow the money from someone to make the payment. All of a sudden there were all these new rules and regulations that they were trying to re-enforce on me. (Mind you, I only have about three months left to pay the sofas off). They kept threatening me on how the stuff is still there’s and they can come and pick it u whenever they want. He made it his business to say how he runs that whole Aarons store and everyone has problems, but that is none of his business. I let them know about their attitude. I don’t know how they let people like that deal with customers. I financed a Mercedes Benz, if I was to be late on the payment, guess what? It’s a 40K car, and they don’t treat me like that. AARONS HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! That will be the first and last time I will ever purchase something from them! I will make sure to tell everyone!

I also had a very simmular experience with Aaron's. I recieved a call from the store letting me know i was 2 days late on my payment. I told the Manager named Sheila in Payson, Az. that I am sorry I am a single mother who works full time and attends college full time and raises a 2 year old alone, I must have just let it slip my mind. She then accused me of being "STUPID" and said that since I was 2 days late, I obviously couldn't add! This woman was the rudest person I have ever dealt with on a professional level. I have worked in the customer service field before and at any one of my jobs if I had ever spoken that way to a customer I would have been fired on the spot. I guess aarons just trains their people to be rude, unconsiderate, and childish. I WILL NEVER DO BUSSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY EVER EVER AGAIN! I suggest you don't either or you will be in for a rude AWAKENING!

Aaron's Very rude customer service!

I leased a 52 inch hd tv. It became blurry I ask for it to be fixed. They replaced it with a 48 inch and I should have gotten the same tv. Before dark the tv tore up it had so many lines that you could not see it. I called and they brought me a 52 inch this time. This was on may 9 2007. They said three weeks to fix it. When I call to check on it they talk to me like I have never been talked to by a business. They have very rude people that work there. Every time you call they have let the person go I talked to last. Take this matter serious because your store in Seneca will not be opened long. Sharonda, the manager is very very rude she want listen to me she wants to do all the talking.

Aaron's Made up a bogus reason for keeping my over payment

I made a payment of $160.00 on 5/21/07 which included $12.82 in late fee's. I wrote an even amount out provided that the $9.16 will be adjusted to my next payment. But to my surprise the money was deducted from me. I was told it was for "in house pickup" in other words the company allegedly came to my house to remove my furniture and there was no answer. Remind you no notice was left at my residence indicating that this took affect. It just so happen this amount was exactly my balance left over. My bill was due on 5/15/07, only six days late and I paid the late fee's. I will never purchase from this company ever again. I will pay my remaining balance because I agreed to. Under no certainty did I agree to be taken advantage of.

Aaron's Most annoying customer service i've ever experienced

This store has the rudest and most annoying customer service I've ever experienced. There is no communication between the employees, so therefore i get harassed day & night, and have to repeatedly explain my payment plan to people who are to lazy to look up your account.

The last face to face encounter i had with these people was very rude & extremely insulting. The manager and a sales man both argued with me about my payment, which i was right about, in a barrage of insults and patronizations. I don't recommend this location to anyone unless you want to harassed by phone,at work, at home and don't mind paying their scam of late charges that don't exist in even their contracts. The worst though is being talked to like a stupid piece of trash.

Aaron's Rude treatment!

I feel that AAron's has been very evasive and non-cooperative and the worst thing was that I have been treated rudely. I am 18 years old and this is one of the first purchases I have made and I am very discouraged about the sales department at our local Aaron's store. I had to return my P.C. and it has been gone for repair for over a month and a half. I regret dealing with Aaron's and I am dissaloushioned about the purchasing procedure all together.

The Aaron's location in Magee Ms. continually plays music on speakers outside the store that is inappropriately loud and disturbing to the point that customers in the neighboring stores are complaining. Management disregards complaints and this has been an ongoing issue.
