Originally contacted RoomsToGo (7/11) because of two stains that led to peeling and discoloration on the sectional in two places: the console and the wedge. Was told after submitting photos that we needed to contact the extended warranty company as this was not a manufacturing defect. Fine. Contacted Fortegra (7/13) as we bought the extended warranty. The warranty states that it begins once the furniture is delivered. Fortegra said the couch is still under one year warranty with RoomsToGo, they would not help us, & we need to contact RoomsToGo. Once contacting RoomsToGo again (7/13), they said they still could not help, and that the extended warranty only starts after the first year, which conflicts with the paperwork received from Fortegra. No resolution on call. RoomsToGo left a voicemail (7/14) stating they would replace the whole sectional. Great! Come to the delivery date (7/23), they did not have the console piece, yet had two extra sectional seats instead. We told them this was incorrect and we were suppose to have a console piece. Deliverers said they could not do anything about it, and still tried to take our console piece!!! So we called RoomsToGo. Not only did the guy I spoke with have a hard time finding our original console order in the first place (because it was a split order due to it not being able to be delivered with the rest of the sectional) but he said that he "does not know why it wasn't included in the order" and the only option would be to send someone out in 3 weeks to determine if it needed replacement because they couldn't find the original photos or any comments on the order about the replacement of the console. THE CONSOLE WAS ONE OF THE REASONS WE CALLED IN THE FIRST PLACE! So whoever initiated the replacement did not look at the items we actually wanted to replace, not taking the time or care for our order.
I have been waiting to receive a phone call back from a supervisor but have not. Would like the console piece replaced ASAP!Business Response

On July 22nd, my wife and I went to RTG and picked out and purchased/financed a new mattress. The mattress had to be ordered from the warehouse and would be delivered on Tuesday, July 26th, 2022. There were no issues during this transaction.
I called RTG later on the same day that we bought the mattress and inquired about an adjustable frame. The salesperson, Scott F., informed me over the phone that he could also get me the adjustable base for the mattress.......for $800. My wife and I went back to RTG this morning to order the adjustable base and met with Scott F., he then quoted me $900 off the base. I reminded Scott that he informed me that the base was $800. His response was...."Well......$899". I reminded him that he specifically told me $800 for the base. I then asked for the manager, but the manager was of no assistance whatsoever. After the manager refused to assist, I cancelled the mattress order altogether and did not purchase anything from RTG during this visit. I have been a loyal RTG customer for over a decade, having purchased my entire living room group, daughter-in-law's living room group, son-in-law's living room and bedroom group, mattresses, and multiple TVs. Sadly, it all came to an end today. I still want to buy a mattress and adjustable base for my wife but this incident has left me without words. Is this what RTG is becoming?Business Response

Dear BBB,
We are in receipt of this claim.
On behalf of Rooms To Go, please express our apologies for any confusion regarding base price. The base price is actually $899. Regardless, our office will be reviewing further with the corresponding store manager.
As per our "Terms and Conditions" contract, at any time after purchase we reserve the right to correct any errors in pricing.
As a good faith gesture, we authorized the store to honor the $800 price on the base if our customer is still interested. If this is not acceptable, that would be all we would be able to do.
We trust this has been answered.
Sincerely,
Lourdes C.

I purchased items on 6/2022. Items were delivered on July 12, 2022. The RTG delivered and assembled the equipment. By, July 22, 2022 the king size bed frame with headboard broke. I called to have item refunded. They have 48 hour refund/return policy. Due to an injury with the frame broken, I requested for a pick and return of the item. I have been denied and looking to pursue legal action for pain and suffering.Business Response

I received a call from the company to schedule a pickup the furniture. I was advised that a pickup of the previous furniture will be honored with a full refund to the king size bedroom set. On August 3, RTG repair technician came out to assess the items and informed that the items were not repairable. I am pleased to accept the request. I am awaiting for a technician to pickup the items due to the circumstances and awaiting a full refund.Initial Complaint

I ordered a glass dinning room set from rooms to go color espresso with 4 barstools everything expresso base everything expresso. When the guys delivered it they just set it by the door and said I didn't get no setup. So, I noticed the chairs were the wrong height and the base was cherry brown not even matching the color of the chairs, so I contact the store on 5800 Veterans Memorial BLVD, Metairie La 70003 and spoke with one of their sales person. I explained to the guy my problem with my order and he told me they have a "NO RETURN/REFUND POLICY". I explained to him why would I be responsible for paying for something I did not order and that I would not be doing business with rooms to go anymore and I would like to have someone come and pick up this dinning set that does not match chairs for one, and it is not what I ordered. The guy told me "it's fine that I choose not to do business with rooms to go, and that they will not loose any business with one customer complaining", and that he would be happy to let me speak with the supervisor". Wow, that it is comfortable for a sales person to speak with a customer in that manner! So, the supervisor gets on the phone and tells me he will go through his computer and get back with me! I heard no more from them, but I am forced to keep this set that does not match, the table is a different color from the chairs!! Rooms to go has bad business because the customers are the ones that makes your business and keeps you rich, but to be treated in this manner is horrible!! All I want is to have the dinning set exchanged! The chairs are still in plastic and the glass and table is in the box.Business Response

Dear BBB,
We are in receipt of this claim.
On behalf of Rooms To Go, please express our apologies to our customer for any inconvenience they may have experienced.
As we are concerned by the allegations expressed, we will review matters with the regionals office and will address any issues internally if deemed necessary.
Due to heavy volume, all deliveries are routed by zip codes in order to reach all scheduled customers. Because this is done automatically via electronic routing, we have no control over the timeframe. Delivery is an all-day appointment from 7am-10pm. An estimated four-hour window may be provided when applicable.
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances out of their control, there may be times the driver may not arrive within the given four-hour timeframe. Our records reflect the customer was contacted and advised of the new estimated timeframe. We regret this did not work for them thereby requesting the order be canceled. The delivery was still scheduled to be delivered on their chosen date, which is why their request for a discount of the purchase was denied.
The order was canceled at the customer's request. Refunds paid at the point of sale take up to 21 business days to process and 1-2 billing cycles to show on their respective statements. As far as credit reports, RTG is solely the retailer not the finance company. We do not have access to finance accounts nor send information to credit bureaus. The customer will need to direct further inquiries regarding their credit to the finance company.
Thank you for your time.

Around either April or May of 2020 I purchased a king mattress from rooms to go at Willowbrook store. In a matter of only week's the mattress began to sink, I called the store which they sent a technician to verify the problem. At that time I request for my money to be returned but they said I would have to try another. This is my third mattress which technician also again for third time show a defect. No mattresses are higher and they require for me to spend more good money over bad after three returns. I need help to solve this problem. I'm a 5'5" less than 200 pound woman that haven't slept good in all these three mattress. Room to go should replace with better mattress instead of my paying more.Business Response

Dear BBB,
We are in receipt of this claim.
On behalf of Rooms To Go, please express our apologies to our customer for any inconvenience experienced.
We have reviewed the account in its entirety. Under the manufacturer's guidelines, they were given the authorization to reselect the king mattress in the home to another mattress of equal value. If greater, they would be responsible for the difference in price plus new delivery fee as they are past the 1year warranty RTG offers. Like most retailers, we would not be able to cover any greater difference than what was paid for the merchandise at the point of sale.
Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks, for the offer but I've been in store which there's no equal for my mattress. And since I've been thru about four mattress at your store the first was much more with no satisfaction to each. I'm not placing good money over bad when I have no confidence in your mattress. In the very beginning it was only a couple of weeks and the mattress had issues then again and again which I asked for my money back then. This matter could've been taken care of. The only reason it took me so long to report with this mattress I was hoping this wasn't just my amazing again sinking in this mattress. I don't complain about things that work. I am wanting a refund.

Dear BBB,
Our office understands our customer's views. We have reached out to the store's management team. They have contacted the customer to discuss the options further. A return was authorized and generated for the mattress. It is scheduled to be picked up on 8.05.22. Please allow up to 21 business days to process from date of return.
We trust this claim is settled.

I currently have a complaint against Rooms to Go regarding the denial of service by Guardian Protection Company. I the case #XXXXXXXX. Guardian left me a voicemail asking me to call either Renee or Courtney back at their regular business number during business hours. I tried calling today and have been on hold 2 hours and 12 minutes so far. This is a total waste of time!
If Guardian truly were committed to servicing their customers in the " Guardian family" as their director of customer has stated about 32 times since I've been on hold- they would have provided me with a workable telephone number.
I will have to hang up now - again with no resolution, unfortunately I have to work for a living.
Please someone reach out and make me believe this is not a scam. Don't know if the Commission of Insurance of South Carolina is aware of how this company handles issues.

I called this company on Sunday to cancel. I was told the Tampa Call Center can't process returns. You can't cancel online either. I called the number to the store and line goes straight to call center again several times it did this. I finally was able to get someone who knew how to transfer my call to Heights store. I spoke to a female name Donna advise her I needed to cancel and she told me to give her a moment and she'll call me back. Well that was at 12noon on Monday and its Tuesday and still no call back. I check online and still see my order hasn't been canceled. I'm not about to argue with them. I order it online in the timeframe of the sneaky business practices and after reading all the print after the tell to you to place the order and they even or charged me which upset me. There all about money and nothing is told upfront. Cancel my order and return all you took from me. Tell them to follow through on calling a customer back when told she would. I don't want to show up at the store to hunt her down!Business Response

I have bough furniture from Rooms To Go in Naples FL in November 2021. The furniture wasn't cheap and it was delivered very late and damaged. After months of waiting for replacement they keep telling me that the don't have it and they will get it but every moth i just keeps pushing back. They are unable to deliver my order. they offered me $150 to keep it after i spend almost $9000. Every time i call they are not heling and having me wait and wait and i had to GLUE my original order and use Brackets from home depot to make it stay together. I am not getting anywhere at all. I would like to return damaged items and get money back for them. They said that once its delivered it cant be returned. You cant deliver garbage and charge that much money and tell people ill give you $150 back...Business Response

Dear BBB,
We are in receipt of this claim.
On behalf of Rooms To Go, please express our apologies for any issues with their furniture.
Our customer purchased in Naples, Florida where the product was available. However, the furniture was delivered in North Carolina. Unfortunately, the furniture selected is discontinued and not available in North Carolina to take care of any problems with said furniture.
We are aware our customer has been offered a full reselect towards another bedroom set of same value in the North Carolina region.
We can also offer the following two options if our customer will consider.
#1) A $240 discount to keep the bed, chest and 1 dresser "as is" and thereby voiding the remainder of the warranty period.
or
#2) A $565 discount to keep bed, chest, 2 dressers and 3 night stands "as is" and thereby voiding the remainder of the warranty period.
Please let us know.
We thank our customer for their business and trust this is being handled.

I am trying to be reasonable, but unfortunately the fact that I have spend almost $9000 with Rooms to Go and now Im getting offer or less than 10% that's just insulting! I have waited Months and months and all i got is damaged good that are glued together because they would stand other wise. Its just insane to have to be in this situation... how can you deliver something like that? how can you do business like that? I would consider repick but there is nothing in the showrooms that would work with our decor. I will talk this over with my wife and get back to you but this is just unreal. No money or furniture will make up for this most horrific experience ! I work in sales/customer service and I would nevr allow for something like this to happen. If its companies fault it is what it is and good business and customer service takes care of customers. Policy that honors NOTHING and declines everything after deliver is just hmmmm lack of words truly!
Thank you BBB for help and i will get back to you Asap...

Dear BBB,
We have received the latest response.
Once again, we regret this situation. The discount is being taken off the bedroom set only, not any other furniture our customer may have purchased.
Please keep in mind, our customer was also offered reselect to a set of equal value to resolve the issues.
We will await their decision.

Our purchase date was 02/15/2021 , however the delivery date was much later. We purchased
a dual power sofa, loveseat, and recliner along with the Guardian Protection Plan. In total we spent over $5000. For months we have tried to file and resolve 2 claims. We have chosen the call back option many times, stayed on hold 1 hour and 24 min(I have pics),and completed the online claim. After all of the back and forth today we received notice of denied claims. The loveseat's claim was denied even though I spoke with a Rooms To Go representative and stated the seat was not sitting properly, perhaps the frame isn't right. I am not a furniture repair person so I do not know exactly what the problem is but what I do know is the protection plan clearly states FRAME COMPONENTS- breakage,warping,cracking. The loveseat needs to be repaired. Guardian looks for an out in order to not fulfill the claim.Business Response
