  Oct. 2024 ****** ***** their collections guy came to my house being disrespectful because he thought I had not made a payment for my washer and dryer set but it turned out to be an error on their end but once he was aware of the error he just left, no apology or remorse for his disrespect Mar/Apr 2025 Our dryer needed to be serviced and they kept promising dates to come out and kept canceling without notifying us. When they finally came out after numerous phone calls from me they came to check my washer for some reason until my wife told them it was actually the dryer as we stated multiple times. We were told the manager would be in that Monday to get us service and we were left waiting again until I called and again they changed dates without notifying us. We finally got a loaner dryer and we were told wed be updated weekly on then servicing our dryer but we havent heard anything in over a month

  I order a refurbished HP laptop. I waited for a few days for them to deliver on Thursday, April 17, 2025. I received it on the above date However, the laptop was blank and I do mean literally blank. They had forgotten to download the programs it needed and was suppose to be downloaded on it. I called and spoke with them and explained this to them. They can't deliver another one until Thursday, April 24, 2025. That is not acceptable. To have a product that does not work and they want a week to replace it?! What happened to customer satisfaction? I would like it delivered sooner than a week!

  Ordered an item from Aarons in ************* late 2024 . The item arrived defective so I called to have them exchange it . They sent *************** with the exchange. In March 2025 my bank statements showed was being charged twice for something at Aarons and I only had one item with them. I contacted the store and attempted to resolve the issue and was told there was not two charges going to my card. I canceled my card and received emails once my payment was due later that month with proof of these charges from Aarons . Afterwards, my granddaughter reached out to ********** store, because she realized that if the chargers were coming from two different locations ****** ** and ************* . Lincolnton store manager stated that he would have three of the charges refunded and then we need to reach out to ****** to have the other two payments refunded because there was a total of five. Upon reaching out to ******, the associates, there would lie and say that they were store management and that they didnt owe anything towards the account. I talked to him several days over the next few weeks. On April 17, my granddaughter received a call on my behalf stating that they had not spoken with me in weeks when she stated that she knew they had spoken to me and asked for the store manager. She was transferred to a number that rang for 15 mins and then was routed back to the main line which no one answered. She attempted to call back and was still unanswered. She ended up reaching out to the Lincolnton SM , asking for a district manager of some sort that could reach out to her to getthe issue sorted upon doing so the Lincolnton SM suggest that he reach out to the ****** ** to get the issue handled. When the ****** ** called, he said he will fix the issue. I find out that he did not fix the issue and has not refunded or applied the payments that is owed to my account but only moved my payment date out two months as a extension. Now I also find out my lease length changed.

  I bought a washer and dryer from Aaron's in *********************** and soon after buying the products. They began rattling like something was wrong with it. Aaron's sent someone from maintenance and they were baffle about how the washer sound. The maintenance worker called back to the office of the store to discuss what was going on with the washer but they told him something without my knowledge of what and left with an explanation. They said that that's the way it supposed to work. I wanted to turn that back in for another but they didn't offer me any other options and handled the situation as an as is buyer beware.

  The first of this month, April, I paid my bill and applied for a riding lawn mower. I was approved, I paid ****** towards it and it was scheduled to be delivered that following Tuesday the 8th. On the 7th I received a phone call to go over the contract. I don't do verbal contracts, and find it a little odd we would need a contract over the phone after taking my money and scheduling delivery. Not only do I have tinnitus, but I have audio processing disorder. Regardless, verbal contracts shouldn't be a thing. After much back and forth between ****** and another employee, I stopped explaining myself. The lawn mower never got delivered, evidently we did not have a contract. I contacted Corporate Office and spoke to a representative with a confirmation number of ******* and I never received a call back. I'm wondering, since we didn't have a contract agreement, which we should have had before taking my money and scheduling the delivery, why haven't I been reimbursed?

  ****,

  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate you being an Aaron's customer.  Our records confirm that you requested a mower, and a prorated payment was collected at the time of the order. Once the item arrived, our store team reached out to complete the lease agreement; however, we would like to clarify that all agreements are finalized electronically through DocuSign, ensuring both convenience and security. Additionally, If you have not yet done so, we kindly recommend contacting the store to arrange receipt of your refund.   If you need any further support, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at **************.

  3/11/25 My tenant was supposed to get items delivered to them from Aarons. During the delivery, my brand new floor that were put in less than two months ago was damaged and ripped. My tenant contacted me and I had my tenant contact the store right away to start the process of repairing the kitchen floor and opening up a claim for the damaged floor. The damage occurred on 3/11/25. Today is 4/15/25 and still no resolution. The store manager got my number from the tenants but never contacted me. I told her I got the floor from ***** and all I want is for the kitchen area to be replaced. The floors are vinyl sheets, they are not planks or tiles that only a portion can be replaced. I had Lowes come out and give me a quote to replace ONLY the kitchen (where damaged occurred) with the exact same floor as before for $1763.06. I had sent this quote to the store manager via email and got no solution. The store manager gave me the run around Also that the floors are an exclusive Lowes item and only Lowes carries that color and pattern and thats where I got quote from. Im not be unreasonable, Im simply asking them to replace what they damaged and not do a patch job. Well finally the store manager created a case with corporate and they will be calling me. Guess what, a week goes by and no call. I tried calling corporate and was told to give them 24 (business hours-3 days) to call back. Yup, still no call back. Today 4/15/25, over a month ago since damage has occurred and still no call back, no resolution and being told to wait about 24 hours. I want cooperate to call me and I want Aarons to send me a check or deposit $1763.06 so I can get my kitchen floor replaced by Lowes (with the exact same material and color) since it was damaged by Aarons delivery team. The whole floor in the kitchen needs to be replaced because its vinyl sheet and gets installed as a single peace. They wanted me to get a second quote and I got that as well.

  Months ago, I had been on the website and put something in the shopping cart, but didnt order it after that the manager would call me as if Im ready and I kept telling him no Im not ready to order. I didnt get rid of my old sofa. Just moving in things are going on continue to call for a while and I kept telling him not yet.Last month I started getting these emails like advertisements from errands telling me I have an appointment for about my payment. I called the store. I emailed and I told him I dont have a payment. I dont have any furniturefrom you that Im paying on anything I have been paid off for a couple years. I have nothing I did not place that order well. I continue to get that email so I called the office one day in a very nasty salesman says where is your payment? I tried explain to him. I dont owe you money. I dont have any of your furniture. I wrote to the corporate office and never heard anything Today I open an email. Its another email from errands saying I still have my VIP privileges which I dont know what they are even though I returned my purchase to them.Idea what theyre talking about. I didnt return anything to them because I didnt have anything from them. I do not owe them money no matter howmany times *** said this no matter how many times Ive written to the customer service at the ********************************************* it doesnt stop. I have blocked phone from the store. I dont know how to solve this. I do not have furniture from them or anything else I do not owe them a ***** inthe past like I said I paid off furniture from them two years ago. I receive nothing else from them. Why can they not adjust the records accordingly I dont know how to get through to them. I just cant and I dont know what to do about it anymore? Cannot upload any document or something I do not have. I do not have anything from them. I do not owe them a ***** and I cant get through to them.

  I purchased a couch from Aarons online on 4/8/2025. The advertisement says i will receive my order in 2-3 days. I received notice that my online order was cancelled because I failed the verification process. When i called customer service they told me to bring my drivers license to the local store. When i did they showed my the couch i purchased on theyre showroom floor. They said that i was on the schedule to deliver on Monday 4/14/2025 at 3pm. I advised the manager at the ********************,** location that the website said delivery would be in 2-3 days, and I purchased a new couch and not used furniture that has been sitting in the showroom with people sitting on it. *********************************************************************
