Aaron's Rent INC
Billed 4953.74 Over Returned TV and Washer and Dryer Rental

I rented a big screen television in 2005 and a washer and dryer in 2006. I was up to date on my payments in January, but for certain reasons I was unable to afford them anymore. I called Aaron's to pick up the property on my day off, and they were unable to do it then. We finally agreed on a time, and I was at home at the time they were supposed to pick up, but they never showed. I called to see what the hold up was and was told they had come a few hours earlier. I asked why they would do that when we had agreed on a time. They told me they would enter my home if I was not there, and I told them to try it.

They said they would call the police because I did not want to return the property. I did not have a problem with returning it, but if we schedule a time, I expect that time, or a call saying otherwise. In September I received a letter in the mail saying I had missed court. I called the court and told them I had never received anything about court. The court made a new date, and I appeared and told the judge I never received anything about court until I received the letter saying I had missed it. He said I was summoned. I asked for the name, date, and time I was supposedly summoned, because the summons should have that on it, but no time or date was on the summons. The judge said the person responsible will be in trouble.

We had a second date in court. Now Aaron's claimed I never returned the merchandise, but then said yes I did, but it was damaged. I disputed all of that because nothing was damaged. The property was returned in February. Aaron's said I did not return it at the set-up time, but it was their fault because they came early. Now they are trying to charge me 4953.74 for property they have. I called several of the locations and asked if damage was supposedly done, would I receive something, and everyone I spoke with said yes.

Now Aaron's says that because they lost money, they filed a lawsuit, and they are trying to garnish my wages. I will not give them one penny, because I returned the property. If they think I will pay that, they should think again, or they will wheel that television and washer and dryer back. So beware, because they are a rip-off company. They lie, and when I looked the company up on the internet, I saw they are trying to do the same thing to several other people.
