This company changed their payment processing center to mytdfinancing in July. I was not aware until August as i was trying to pay my august bill online and it would not take the payment at myonlineaccount website. Needless to say when I found out I needed to submit to mytdfinancing it charged me $29 late fee and it says i was due two payments in August. I have never missed a payment. I believe Julys payment was not credited correctly but the current financing company transactions show I made the payment. I just paid September **************************************************************** $40 late fee. I have called customer service number ************** which is a joke. Ive waited over an hour the times with no answer. Therefore theres no ability for customers to get any resolution to problems. Pitiful customer service. Ive messaged them through mytdfinancing and no response either. I want the late fees credited, i want the missing payment credited (i have proof from my bank they were paid and on mytdfinancing transactions link) Ashley Furniture needs to do something about this pitiful customer service through mytdfinancing.Business Response

Sales order - 069D238825 Document Date - 08/17/24 So i bought Merch PROADAPT 2.0 MED ******************* (954 Item: *******) for $1699 plus tax, which was sold to me as an "as-is" product. However, at the time of purchase in-store, there were no visible stains or defects on the mattress. Upon delivery, I noticed a significant stain that was not present when I originally inspected and bought the product.I immediately contacted the store to inform them of this issue. The store manager confirmed that the mattress did not have any stains when I left the store, acknowledging that the stain likely occurred during the delivery process. Despite this, I have not been offered a reasonable resolution to the matter.I am requesting that Ashley Furniture either:Provide a full refund for the mattress,Replace the stained mattress with a comparable one in clean condition.Business Response

On August 15, 2024, I visited the Ashley Furniture HomeStore located at ************************************************* to purchase a mattress. During this visit, I had an interaction with sales associate ***** ****** that I believe constitutes misrepresentation and unfair business practices.***** assured us that Ashley Furniture offers a 90-night sleep trial where we could return the mattress for a full refund if we didn't like it.We were also told we could exchange the mattress for any other mattress in the store, including less expensive options, and receive the difference as a refund.***** specifically mentioned that if we exchanged for a cheaper mattress (such as a Purple mattress) after the upcoming Labor Day sale, we would receive the adjusted sale price, resulting in a larger ********* was suggested to us that purchasing through Ashley was better than buying directly from mattress companies because Ashley's policy offered similar benefits, inculding the ability to return the mattress or exchange with options from various brands.Based on these assurances, we decided to purchase a Tempur-Pedic mattress from Ashley instead of directly from the manufacturer.After deciding we didn't like the Tempur-Pedic mattress and attempting to exchange it, we were informed that: - We cannot return the mattress for a refund. - We can only exchange for a mattress of equal or greater value. - If we exchange for a less expensive mattress, we forfeit the price difference.This directly contradicts what ***** told us.We were directed to the Terms and Conditions, which we had signed but which were not properly explained to us at the time of purchase. The small print in these terms contradicts what we were verbally promised and misled into believing.We felt that we could trust ***** and as we signed the agreement, virtually, nobody ever walked us through it or clarified the fine print and the policy that contradicts what ***** communicated to us.Business Response
Date: 09/20/2024
To whom it may concern,
We have directed the guest to their signed Terms and Conditions, which include information regarding our 90-Night Comfort Guarantee exchange program. These Terms and Conditions state, "...you may select another mattress of equal or greater value...If a lower priced mattress is selected, the difference will be forfeited and cannot be applied to another purchase."
The guest signed the Terms and Conditions, verifying they had read and agreed to the policies outlined. If there was any confusion surrounding the Terms and Conditions or any contradictory information given at the time of purchase, our retail team was available to assist and answer any questions before signing. We are very sorry for any confusion surrounding our 90-Night Comfort Guarantee exchange program; however, we are following the Terms and Conditions for an exchange.
We have contacted the guest to let them know how to proceed with the exchange if they would like to move forward with selecting a new mattress.
Warm regards,
Ashley *************Customer Answer
Date: 09/21/2024
I am rejecting this response because:Again, we were promised something completely different by the sales associate, regarding the sleep trial, including returns or exchanges for a refund of any difference in value. We specifically asked the sales associate, "If we don't like the Tempur-Pedic and decide to exchange for the cheaper Purple mattress, will we still get the Purple mattress at the current Labor Day sales price to account for the refund of the difference?" and both sales associates assured us that we would. My wife and I even asked again to clarify and make absolutely sure this is how the exchange worked and they both assured us again.
The agreement was sent virtually over DocuSign and the sales associate led us to believe that it was simply for scheduling the delivery. They never once walked us through it or pointed out the fine print that contradicted everything they promised us. Is it even reasonable to assume that we should need an attorney to review paperwork for purchasing a mattress? That's ridiculous. This was complete malpractice by the sales associates at Ashley and we would have NEVER purchased our mattress from Ashley if we were not given the false promises that we were. Why would anyone accept this policy when literally every other mattress company offers a standard sleep trial for returns or exchanges for a refund?
To make things worse, Ashley literally doesn't mention this language anywhere on their own 'Returns and Exchange Policy" that is posted on their website (see attached).
We have recorded conversations with *****, our sales associate, affirming what we were misled into believing at the store. At this point, we are planning to dispute this with our bank, file a complaint with the ******************************************* and take this before a judge. It's not even about the money anymore, it's about the principle and this company's unethical business practices that they have shown no intention of making right.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing Mr. *********** concerns. We understand the situation, and to resolve this matter, we are offering a one-time exception. We will provide a refund for the price difference between the originally purchased mattress and the new mattress of his choice.
Additionally, we have arranged for the store to honor the Labor Day sale pricing for this exchange. MR ********* is welcome to visit the store anytime today until 4/5 PM or tomorrow from 12 to 9 PM to speak with the General Manager and complete the exchange.
Please let us know if you have any further questions or need additional assistance. We appreciate your patience and look forward to resolving this matter to Mr. *********** satisfaction.

Ive had to exchange three couches in 4 years, due to the poor quality of the furniture. The material of the furniture has torn, and interior mechanisms bend less than a year after having the furniture.Business Response

Hello team!
Thank you for sharing *********************** concerns with us. We have spoken with ******************* regarding her concerns and have informed her that, unfortunately, we are unable to provide a refund or return for her items, as quality-related issues are not covered under the manufacturer's warranty.
To assist, we have ordered the replacement mechanisms for the bent parts as this is still covered under a five year manufacture's warranty, and weve asked ******************* to contact us once she receives them so we can schedule a master craftsman to attempt restoration. If the restoration is unsuccessful, we will then consider offering an even exchange.
Additionally, we have informed ******************* that for the rips in her sofa and loveseat, she will need to seek assistance through our furniture restoration partner, Furniture Solutions Network, as this falls outside the scope of the manufacturer's warranty.
We are committed to working with ******************* to resolve these concerns as effectively as possible.

We recently attempted to purchase some furniture. It was delivered stained and damaged and the delivery people left without giving us proper time to inspect the furniture. I immediately called to try to get the situation rectified. However, with a lot of back and forth with the customer service team I was finally able to get someone to agree to partially refund our furniture. They came today to pick up the furniture and now I am left with no furniture and a balance due for delivery/restocking fees. I am hoping to have this situation rectified as it is anti-consumer, and a disgusting practice. We did nothing wrong and are trying to have Ashley Homestore rectify the situation. We should not owe for negligence on the part of Ashley Homestore. I have filed a complaint with *************************** and the ************************ for this anti-consumer policies. I am giving Ashley Homestore an opportunity to fix this situation however I am met with constant run around. We should owe nothing.Business Response

Purchased a standing desk from Ashley Furniture on 3/27/24. The desk was installed by delivery driver and did not work. I contacted the company and received no assistance. My father contacted the company and was told a part would be shipped and they would send a repairman out to fix it. They sent the wrong part and no repairman was sent. I contacted the company and no response to date has been received. This has gone on too long. I have the 5 year repair warranty on the item and was told I could not use it as it was a delivery issue and must be repaired by the company.Business Response

I ordered a chair and my credit card was declined. I was approved by Acima Leasing so I ordered a chair using Acima. It's the same model of chair. I received a text that the chair was being delivered on 8/08. I did not pay any attention to the order number as I assumed the one my credit card didn't work for would not be delivered as it was not paid for . I received another text that another chair was being delivered on 8/16. I called and tried to stop it but was told it was too late and that I should just refuse it. I assumed it was just a mistake . Then I got an email saying I owed for the chair that was delivered . I called customer service and was told I was being charged because the one I refused was the one I used Acima credit for and the one I kept was the one my credit card didn't work for . I was told the order numbers cannot be changed so Ashley would call Acima and cancel my contract with them and I would have to come up with a way to pay for the chair I have. That was last week and my payments continue with *****. I called Acima and they have not heard anything . Right now you are trying to make me pay for two chairs. I have video of me refusing the chair and the driver showing me on his phone where it was refused and I also spoke to dispatch right after and told them the chair was refused.

Purchased furniture in March 2024 and used Ashley's financing through *************** Adding the Ashley card to my synchrony bank online account with no issues, however the balance remained ZERO for 60+ days. When I contacted synchrony, they advised I must be within a promotional period where payment's haven't yet begun. Another 60 days go by, and I get a call from a debt collector about a "TD financial debt" that I knew nothing of and thought it was a scam. It wasn't until AUGUST that I got a statement from Ashley in the mail, and noticed the website to make a payment was through TD financing. Now that I had the right account info, I was able to log in and noticed how LATE I was. Not only was I charged significant late fees, but this likely has impacted my credit. I've tried 6 times to contact Ashley customer service only to be left on hold for HOURS. I will require an adjustment to late fees, and extension on no interest financing given the fact I was unable to make a payment for FIVE months. Screen shot attached showing NO statement until August.Business Response
