Lease a TV through them. They call non stop if the payment is late, even if the payment is not late they still call to "remind" me to make payment a few days in advance. Staff are very rude and now they are not only harrassing myself but now are calling references telling them the situation when it is has nothing to do with them. I have tried to make payment arrangements but they have not accepted them. They threaten to come and pick up the TV. They are lying to the references, making it seem as if we are the bad guys. Not a fun time, especially around the holidays. I wish I never dealt with this company in the first place.

EasyHome here in Barrie, Ontario, Canada, a TOTAL SCAM! Especially if you end up using the insurance company that THEY gave the papers for you to sign!

My mother in law rented a tv from them, and as soon as she wasn't able to make payments (due to a mugging), the insurance was supposed to kick in, Easy Home kept calling us to make the payments that the insurance company THEY GAVE US, didn't make. Then EasyHome tried to say that the paperwork wasn't filled out correctly. I was standing right there, with the EasyHome Employee, watching her help my mother in law fill out the application. So whose fault is it that it wasn't filled out correctly? How did the deal even go through if the paperwork wasn't filled out properly? Now EasyHome is suing her for everything, though they are the ones with the initial mistake and fault. a total scam!

We rented a bunkbed for our children off of them too, and when we got it it had stickers all over it (not the one we saw as the floor model) and the mattresses had pee stains on them, so we called them and told them we weren't satisfied with what we got and wanted a replacement bed. It took the guys bringing to our house 3 hours to set it up, because they didn't bring the tools and parts to put it together in the first place. When we called them, they told us they were sorry for the inconvenience of having a bed with pee stains on it, but offered us a set of mattress covers for the beds! It's not legal for them to sell pee stained beds at the Salvation Army, so why is it legal for Easyhome? We cancelled the beds and they told us they were going to charge us 100.00 to come back and take the bed out of the house. We never went back there again...just disgusting that they can sell stuff like this!

It's so crazy - if you actually pay your bill . . . they don't call you, they don't even call your references until you have been 3 days late, which means you're not making any attempt to get back to them. And the other weird thing - if you consistently pay on time, you can actually request not to receive a reminder call, because you've proven you don't need it. But if you're always late, you've proven you either have no idea when your payment is, or that you're a deadbeat who likes to pay late fees. You say they're not accepting your payment arrangements . . . are you asking to pay the first Friday after you're late? Or do you want to pay 2 or 3 weeks after you're due? Cause they don't do that, you can just return the product if you can't afford it. Stop being a little [censor] and pay your bill on time.

Hey Bambino,

Obviously you work for this disgusting place because you have the same disgusting attitude. You couldn't afford to pay for the [censor] easyhome leases either considering you make minimum wage, but I guess being paid minimum wage to be an [censor] is a pretty good deal. Why don't you google "busted easyhome" and get your facts straight. Easyhome is ripping people off and taking advantage of people. You mark up the base cost of the product to almost 3 times the amount and then claim they are charging 29.9% interest when really it's anywhere from 150%-300% interest. You treat people like garbage, harass people at work and home...YOU SUCK!

actually im a easyhome store manager

and yes, if you pay your bill on time every week, we put a little note on your acct that reads" NO PRECALL" and guess what... we wont call you. do u think its fun for us to spend 30 minutes calling everyone on a thursday to remind them their due on saturday. Trust me.. there are many other things i could be doing.

but u know what.. its ok.. because in the end we get the last laugh. I just leased out a desktop computer with a $60 book value... for how much u ask ?
$29 x 52 weeks..
if you cant do math, that would be a total lease cost of $1508.. but wait.. thats not all. we have to mark it up by 30% to cover taxes, total protection coverage & liability waiver... so in the end, next year our customer will have paid $1960.40.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA

For f**ks sake, no business is obligated to serve you in any way, unless they are government-Easyhome is a privately run business. It looks like you have dollar signs in your eyes, expecting a big payout from a "discrimination" case. It would appear that there is far more to this story than what you are telling-what did you do that made the manager feel you are a bad risk?

Also, please learn to spell.

Really...if you make your payments on time, there would be no reason to call you.

As far as the markups, the company has to cover costs of people that ruin or steal merchandise. There are giving you (general you) a $1000 TV for $30 week and TRUSTING that you will come in and make your payments. Its a VERY risky business that is serving people who don't have the ability (whether it be finances or credit) to go to some place like the Brick or Leon's. No one is forcing people to shop there. If you don't like the terms, save up your money and go buy it outright from another retailer.

You also have to put into consideration that with each item how many times have they technically sold it therefore making id say over triple the amount that they pay for it as they get everything alot cheaper then you guys will ever know hell i bet they get some of there stuff from auctions and not all easyhomes have people that were raised how to be respectful to others where i live the people that work at easy home ive heard 2 managers and their delivery people talk bout how theyre partying and doing lines every weekend ive had a couple arguments my self with the managers cuz they tell u one thing and do another with out you knowing the one delivery person they have now doesn't understand how the mangagers are still employed cuz theyre using the store as a personal bank and pocketing payments as well as taking unauthorized payments out of peoples spouses accounts it happend to my coworker a couple months back so before you put anybody down for not making payments and saying how easy home is perfect and plays by the book try listening to what these people are saying for example the comment bout the pee stained mattresses how would you react if you thought you were getting bramd new mattresses for ur kids and instead you get pee stained ones and yet paying the price for brand new please humor us and say how you would feel and what you would do also what would your first reaction be

I rented a t.v. and kitchen table from Charlottetown p.e.i. and it has been a nightmare trying to get anything fixed I have been waiting since September 2012! for a seat for 1 of my chairs the problem is not with any of the employees who are courteous and treat the customers with respect no the problem is directly with the manager Amanda who is and should NEVER EVER be in charge of anything or anyone nor should she ever be in any form of customer service., for the reason AND ONLY REASON I HAVE RETURNED EVERYTHING ONLY BECAUSE I GOT TIRED OF HER VERY NEGATIVE CONDESCENDING ATTITUDE I WILL NEVER DEAL WITH A COMPANY THAT KEEPS SUCH AN ILL EQUIPPED WOMAN AS MANAGER SUSIE IS CLEARLY THE BETTER CHOICE AND IF SHE WAS AT THE HELM I KNOW SHE WOULD RESOLVE THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER.i have also posted a complaint with b.b.s. and a lengthly letter documenting all of the calls, broken promises this manager has made as well as head office of easy home.I would have contacted the regional manager but the manager of this location REFUSED TO give me the number but hey if I was that inefficient at my job I wouldn't give out my bosses number either.

I have delt with some rude nasty companies before but this by far is the worst company I have delt with. Doesn't matter what you state to them they argue with you. And the 2 men if that's what I should call them that came to my door, well lets just say they were the 2 rudest individuals ive met. I HATE THIS COMPANY THEY ARE HORRIBLE. Also Tabetha from store 505 had called one of my refrences and tried discussing my finances with them WHICH IS ILLEGAL on their half all they can do is ask to have a message delivered to me and she screamed at my 65 year old mother in law. She is pathetic and needs a customer service update

I can't get over the amount of comments of people pissed off with Easyhome for being hard [censored] when YOU are the one NOT paying the agreed amount on time. This is a business. They need to be paid just like everyone else. I do not work for them but I have purchased in the past with them. The items cost me more than from a regular store, but back when my credit wasn't as good, it worked for me to pay small amounts weekly and enjoy the products right away, in trust that I would pay. That's how it works. If you won't pay on time, then of course they will hound you with calls and want their products back!

I've been paying ontime every payment for 3 yrs straight. Then I started to have health and financial issues as well as a new baby! They were helpful in making a payment plan except where they leave out the part about extra charges! I have been paying $244.00 a month for the past almost 5 yrs! Honestly, it's a sectional(apt.size) an old model smart TV like 43" coffee and end tables ! Now they harass me on Facebook Messenger, phone, text and email! I've paid $11,200.00 so far. If I miss a payment now they will threaten police , coming to get my items, say things like they know people who seen me and they've seen me so I should have time to return their calls or answer! Obviously I want to keep my stuff

But wtf am I paying for still lol this furniture should have been paid off 5+ times already! If anyone seems to think they're awesome or they care about their customers you are absolutely oblivious!

My card ( the same card ) I’ve been using for almost a year wouldn’t go through on their end. And I got 2 phone calls , they called my mother And still charged me extra 25$ even when I called them 10 times asking them why they money wasn’t taken out. Made to feel like it’s my fault. Then if you talk to four different workers and ask price owing on product or how much has been paid. You will get a different answer everytime. I refuse to be ripped off. Also this was after I picked out one tv. Got three broken tvs with broke. remotes and had to flip because I was paying for a new product not a display unit. So even after they screwed me around 3 times making the delivery men drive back and forth. I got mad , got a new television from them which was supposed to be cheaper then the one they screwed me around with . But I signed a lease for a certain amount . So they have no right to add on money like that. That’s illegal the same as it is illegal for us to steal from easyhome. Customer support doesn’t help. They just call the Newfoundland Canada store yell at the employees then they call and take it out on us. It’s ridiculous, I didn’t mind it. Didn’t have a problem until after paying 1200$ on a 1520$ signed lease that I still owe them 700$ customer support can’t give you a exact price. But they know call second they get to work wake you up and know exactly what the amount is. And what’s this buy out lease option there for if it says not available on it . But I did get offered to pay it off for 600$ after being told couple months ago I only had 500$ left to pay . If they think your stupid they will screw you over. Overwhelm you with numbers and percentages . But still can’t tel you how much you’ve paid or have left to pay - questionable that’s for sure. Rating easyhome 0/10 - but I can’t get into trouble for not paying anymore then the amount I signed for
