I want any and all of you to take heed to this statement. Rent A Center (RAC)
employs felons, undereducated and violent people from society. They WILL come to your home if you are delinquent on payment of merchandise. Granted,
I should make my payments on time. But does it warrant an account manager
literally trying to destroy your door to get you to open it? Two men from RAC came to my door but not 15 minutes of me reporting this to authorities, 1 hour from reporting this on here. The two account "reps" continued knocking on my door for approximately 20 minutes, saying things like "we know your in there, just open the door." After holding my ground, the demands turned into threats. "Open this fuc*%ing door, or we will kick the mother fuc*er down."
Immediately, I called my community security officer and local authorities. They cowardly rushed back to the RAC truck and sped away after I deliberately spoke loudly so that they knew what i was doing by making these phone calls. I can say that I took pleasure in seeing them hasting away from my property with a look of concern on there face. The security officer stopped them at the gate and asked them what was going on, they fed him a load of crap, a typical tactic of RAC. Not but 30 minutes later, they are at my door AGAIN! This time the security officer notified local authorities. Oh man, what happened next is priceless. The police officers showed up and actually heard the gentleman saying things like "Dude, you better open this door or I am going to find you and take what is rightfully ours, i will come to your work, i will go to your friends and tell them how much of a low life piece of s**t you are...." Then I heard a "HEY!" It was the cop. The officer said, "you guys must really want to go to jail tonight". The security officer said that he indeed told them not to come back onto the property or they would press charges of tresspassing. They pretended that the officer said no such thing and was actually REFUSING TO LEAVE MY PROPERTY after the cop DEMANDED that they do so or they are going to jail. After about 2 minutes of bickering and saying things like "thats our TV he has", the officer told them not to ever step foot on this property again or they will go to jail. Then I get a phone call about 7 minutes later, and its the guy that was at my door spewing these threats, he calls to apologize, and then says sorry.....we just realized your only 5 DAYS LATE! Can you believe this crap? To anyone considering renting from RAC, think twice. If you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO GO RENT TO OWN, go to XXXXXX, they actually do criminal background checks on there employees. Come to find out, the dude at my door, was a repeat sex offender and the cop knew exactly who he was. I cant wait till the day that all RAC's close there doors forever, so people like you and me dont have to go through this garbage.

sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company, ..plus, if you post a competitors name more than likely they will show up on search engines as a Rip-off! - - your comments on this policy are welcome. CLICK here to see why Rip-off Report, as a matter of policy, deleted either a phone number, link or e-mail address from this Report. In this case we removed an alleged competitor's name
