Rent-A-Center would call several days before my payments were due. I always made my payments up 2-3 months in advance and they would still call me and remind me my payments were due. Considering that I have given them thousands of dollars since August you'd think they would realize that I knew that my payments were due. I was only late on this one payment by just days and I was going to pay the account off. They called me on Wed. (I was going to pay off my account on Thurs). I informed the manager that I was waiting on my money and that I would pay off the account the next day. He said he couldn't wait until the next morning (it was about 6:30P.M.). We ended the call and 5 min. Later, he called back and my husband answered. At that time, he told my husband that he had stolen property (the account was in my name only). The next day, he had a doctor's appointment. They called while we were gone and when he didn't get an answer at my house, he called my aunt and told her that I was stealing and hiding from him. She was not on my account, either. She informed him that I was not at home because of doctor's appointments and he pretty much told her she was lying. I called Rent-A-Center Thurs. Morning and told him that I intended to pay off my account and the manager said he didn't want my money, he wanted the items returned. (I owed them about $2,400). I told him to come and get the stuff and I went somewhere else and bought a brand new living room set for half of the price rent a center was charging me.
