Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I have been renting a computer for 1 year and it is less than $300.00 to pay off and I also have a television that I still have a year to pay for. I recently got pregnant with twins and ended up out of work and on disability. I had some problems with my disability check and was unable to pay them. They have hired new staff and the staff that they have just hired "Sonny" mainly are very rude.

i have tried to keep in contact to let them know what is going on even when in the hospital. They are calling my mother, my job, and my cousins phone letting them know that I have not made payment. Is that really anyone elses business? Anyways to make a long story short they have came to the house twice trying to pick up the "computer" as they stated and said nothing about the television, and i was not at home they tried to convince the babysitter to let them pick up the merchandise "yeah right".

I have been back and forth to and from the hospital and they are now coming over and making calls threatening to call the police so im gonna do one better for them I will call the police for them and then they can come over or call and make more threats. I may even tie my 2 pitt bulls in the front yard so they can attempt to apporach the door if they would like.

If they want to make threats and make things hard for me when i informed them that I would be in next week to make the payment then I can make it hard for them. they should really be careful who they threaten. as the only reason they want my computer is because it almost paid for. do me a favor and take this tv that isnt worth what you said.

You can call the police if you want, but you'd better have good documentation of the harrasment. If they continually show up you can have them Trasspassed from your property. Of course that will really piss them off. They can come to your door but they can't knock for 30 minutes or so and they can'y block your driveway. They cannot go into your house without your permission. If you call the police they will be removed from your property. They cannot make the cops make you give them the property unless thay have a court order. Check your local laws, a quick google search should find you the info you need. Now with that said. If you can't pay you should just turn it in and save yourself the hassle. Although if you only owe 3 payments there may not be much they can do, again check your local laws. On your contract there will be a statement that you initialed which has the state satute in it. Google that statute and you should be able to find some good info. I know it costs them money to file everything through the courts, if you don't owe much it may not be worth it to them, but if you call the cops on them it may piss them off enouph to go through with it. These guys set fired if they don't get payment.

Pregnancy or losing one's job does not negate the responsibility to pay for your leased merchandise. You don't technically own any of it, until all payments are made. You can call the police, but I'm betting that they will end up walking out with your merchandise after you have to admit you aren't paying for it. Just my 2 cents.

Ok, so we all realize that pregnancy is something not always planned for. However most of us in the real world prepare for these things, we don't just decide which bills, debt, or obligations we willingly undertook, and discard them when a struggle comes up. You can afford a baby-sitter but not your payments, and more than likely you would say you're not aware at all of the details of your contract. Like, your minimum, or life-time re-instatment. You probably rook your copies of the paperwork and threw them on your stack of bills, never to be considered again. That being said, threats, like you said, do nothing unless they're backed up by action. They should'nt overplay their hand and threaten prison or anything foolish like that. And there is a possibility that they Associates are'nt telling your references you haven't paid just that they need YOU to call. Your references are probably, and correctly, deducing that YOU have not paid YOUR bill. They're telling you that because they want YOU to pay so "we" stop calling THEM. Hopefully, your pregnancy goes well and you learn to live up to your obligations. As well as deciding when to make obligations you can't afford, not complain about people doing their job. P.S. You have'nt been RENTING you have been LEASING.
