I have a 12 month warranty on a couch I financed through Conn's. The couch has been coming apart for months in the wooden structure inside of the couch. Conns will not honor this warranty by telling me it is the manufacturer to warranty it. Albany, the manufacturer, says it is Conns responsibility. Meanwhile, I have a couch that I am under contract to pay $3000 for a couch I cannot sit on and Conns is not upholding their end of the contract. Therefore I should not be held responsible for paying this them for this couch. They should come get it and refund me, come fix it, or give me a full refund for all the trouble I have gone through for months being sent in circles. Just because they are going out of business does not make it okay to do this to a customer.Business Response

Conns HomePlus (Conns) appreciates the opportunity to respond to Ms. ***** concerns. We have a history of over 130 years of quality customer service and satisfaction, and we would not want anything to impair that record. As a reminder, Ms. **** may contact Conns regarding questions by calling our **************** Helpdesk at?************** or?online?at ******************************.??
Ms. **** has stated in the complaint:
1. She has a 12-month warranty on her couch, but we will not honor the warranty; and
2. She is requesting to receive repairs.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. Ms. ***** furniture is only covered by the 1-year manufacturers warranty. We are unable to offer service as our ****************** has closed;
2. All repairs are the responsibility of the customer to seek a repair provider and pay for those services
We researched Ms. ***** complaint and found that on 11/26/23, she purchased the ****************** furniture that has a 1-year limited manufacturers warranty. Ms. **** did not elect to purchase additional coverage.
After further review, we see Ms. **** contacted us on July 25, 2024, to request service on her furniture. At that time, Conns had announced we were going out of business and could no longer service furniture without an extended warranty.
We are unable to offer service as our ****************** has closed. For furniture/mattresses that need service but did not purchase a FurnitureGard extended warranty plan, all repairs are the customer's responsibility. The customer must seek a repair provider and pay for those services. There is no longer a one-year warranty due to Bankruptcy.
Conns HomePlus values Ms. **** as a customer and appreciates her for bringing her concerns to our attention.
Sincerely,
Customer Relations

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.
As it shows here on my paperwork where my couch was purchased, is that it has a 12 month warranty. I contacted the manufacturer, ******, as Conns told me they would warranty the couch. I attached the email from ****** stating that they are not the ones responsible for the warranty, that Conns is responsible.Being that I have been contacting for months within the 12 month warranty to have my couch fixed for something that should most certainly be covered under this warranty, I should not be held responsible to pay for fixing this couch. It is not my fault that the business was going into bankruptcy and I was not made aware at the time of purchase that this was about to happen either. I should be refunded for this couch if the contract cannot be honored. It is on my credit that I still owe $1800 for this couch and I should not be held responsible to pay that money, if you aren't going to honor the warranty on your side of the contract. This should make the contract null and void.

[Provide details of why you are not satisfied with this resolution.]Again.. The couch comes with a 12 month warranty that I am still within the 12 months of said warranty, as shown in the attachments. Why should I have to purchase extended warranty for you to fix a broken couch that you sold me, when it already has a 12 month warranty... that is still active? You stated that you are not going to warranty the couch because of Conns filing for bankruptcy, no one made me aware of that when I was financed for the couch and it does not state that anywhere in my paperwork... but it does state that I have a 12 month warranty.

Please consider looking at this from my side of things. Imagine you finance $3600 for a couch that is coming apart just after buying it. You clearly are shown that the couch is covered with a 12 month warranty in your paperwork!!!!! The couch is breaking and you spend months trying to just have it repaired, as the paperwork states only to be told that the company is now going out of business so they will not honor the warranty, they will not come get the couch or take returns, will not exchange the couch for another, will not take the amount owed off of your credit that you are still being held responsible for yet the business does not feel that they are responsible to hold their end of the contract because I did purchase an additional warranty. This is unethical and wrong. Here are my solutions..1. Come get the entire couch and return my money paid and take account off of my credit
2. Trade the couch out for one that is not broken in the store
3. Have someone come and fix the couch
4. Return my money
Any of these would be a suitable answer and/or solution.

There has been no effort of resolution at all. I gave every option and I am being told they will do nothing. I am reporting to BBB because I thought that you would tell the company that they need to do something to make this right, but nothing is still being done. I am just going back and forth as I have been for months and I will have to eat the costs. because they dont care since they are going out of business anyway. This is wrong.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.I have contacted numerous couch repair people and have found no one who will even come and repair the couch. Even the manufacturer, with me self paying, will not repair their own couch. You are going out of business but you are still paying people to make sure I make my payments.... You make sure I have to pay for my part of the deal, yet you don't keep your end... YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD REFUND MY MONEY.

On July ****** I went to the ***************** Store in **********, ** and purchased Furniture through an installment plan with WS Badcock. The interest was a little too high so I went to my Bank -State Employees ************ also located in ********** and acquired a lower interest rate loan and they paid off my balance with **********. The Bank sent them a Cashier's Check on August ******* and the check was cashed/cleared on 9/05/24. They have not credited my account as of today 10/18/24. I have placed over a dozen phone calls to their billing office and I have sent several emails to Conns Home Plus. This was directed me to do by the billing office. To my understanding Conns Home Plus purchased ******* back in December. I don't understand why they are still carrying their Badcock name. So I don't know if they have credited someone else's account or someone has stolen the money. I have paid my account off and I need it to be credited. I have attached the Cashier's check from my bank,memo that was sent with check and the bank gave me copy of transaction history revealing when check cleared. Check number on Cashier's check matches the check on the transaction history. Please note I have been dealing with Florida on the phone, but per their directive my Cashier's check was mailed to W.S. ********************, ***********************************************************************. Again my account number is *********. I have paid them in good faith. Please help me with this matter. If there is any more information please feel free to call me at **************.Business Response

As a reminder, Ms. ***** may contact Conns regarding questions by calling our **************** Helpdesk at?************** or?online?at ******************************.??
Ms. ***** has stated in the complaint:
1. Her bank sent a Cashiers Check in August to pay off her account, which was cleared on 9/5/24, but the funds have not been applied to her account;
2. She is requesting a billing adjustment.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. Due to the check missing verifiable information, it was placed in pending status awaiting documentation;
2. We have processed the payment to Ms. ****** account.
Upon reviewing Ms. ****** concerns, we found that when the check was initially sent to the ** Box, it did not include verifiable information such as an account number to locate an account. This caused a delay in locating the payment so that it could be processed in a timely manner.
As of November 6, 2024, we applied the check to Ms. ****** account to close. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Ms. ***** experienced as a result of the delay.
We appreciate Ms. ***** for bringing her concerns to our attention.

I purchased a fridge from this business and was offered a promotion if I pay it off in 12 months I would get interest free. My first payment was November 2022 and ended in November 2023. I had thought that I was good till my daughter ****** ***** received a call on October 16, 2024, stating the account was past due and needed to make a payment. She wasnt aware that this was paid off so she allowed them to draft $50 from my account. She notified me after and I then called Connss stating this account has been paidas of November 2023. Since then I have attempted to get this resolved but still saying I lost the promotion because of me not paying the total amount by December 2, 2023, which I did. Only amount due is interest that they have added almost a year later. I would like to get the $50 added back to my account and my account to zero balance.Business Response

As a reminder, Ms. ***** may contact Conns regarding questions by calling our **************** Helpdesk at?************** or?online?at ******************************.??
Ms. ***** has stated in the complaint:
1. She had a 12-month promotional offer and paid off her balance. However, her daughter received a call regarding a payment owed and paid $50 to the account. She contacted us but was told she did not pay off the balance and has not been able to get assistance,
2. She is requesting a billing adjustment and to receive the $50 back.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. Ms. ****** account qualified for a 12-month cash option promotional balance, which had to be paid in full by November 12, 2023. However, she failed to pay before the *** expired, and interest was added to her account;
2. As a goodwill gesture, we have agreed to honor the *** to close the account. Additionally, we have agreed to process the refund request.
Our records show that on November 12, 2022, Ms. ***** purchased a ******* French-door refrigerator that was delivered in good condition on November 18, 2022. Ms. ******* purchase qualified for a 12-month Cash Option Promotion totaling $1,761.50, which had to be paid in full by November 12, 2023.
We researched Ms. ****** complaint and found that she did not pay the entire *** balance before the expiration date, which caused interest to accrue on her account. We show that she contacted us on October 21, 2024, to dispute her balance. After reviewing her account, we agreed to honor the *** amount and close the account as a goodwill gesture. We also agreed to process a refund for the $50.00 payment made on October 16, 2024. We ask that Ms. ***** allow time for the account to be updated and the refund to be processed.
Conns HomePlus values Ms. ***** as a customer and appreciates her for bringing her concerns to our attention.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.I was promised the $50 that was taken out of my account in mid-October. The statement DOES NOT show a credit on my account so I feel like I will not be getting the money back as promised. Though, I am happy this account has finally been closed after dealing with this almost a month from today, I do not understand why it is taking so long to get my money back. I would like to get this account resolved and show proof that the money will be mailed as promised. This is going on almost 30 days and I do not understand why it is taking this so long. I have been told to have patience, but I have never had to deal with a company as this one. Please just send me my money and show a credit on my account instead of zero please.

2. She is requesting to receive a refund.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. Ms. ***** washer and dryer was delivered on 9/27/24. The dryer did not work upon installation and was returned. However, we later discovered that the invoice was completed in error. Prior to processing the refund, we filed for bankruptcy and are unable to process refunds at this time;
2. The Chapter ********************************** place during the court proceedings.
We researched Ms. ***** complaint and found that at the time of the delivery, the dryer was found to be defective and returned to the warehouse. We show that Ms. ***** invoice was completed in error, which caused an initial delay in processing the return. However, before we could submit a refund request, Conns had announced we were going out of business and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
Unfortunately, due to Conns filing bankruptcy and going out of business, we cannot process refunds at this time. The Chapter ********************************** place during the court proceedings.

On 10/11/24 We purchased a TV at Conns in *************. paid with our bank card. We took the TV home, plugged it up. TV had a broken screen. We took it back to the store on 10/12/2024. Was told a refund would take 3 weeks. We then bought another TV in a box paid cash, took it home and again the TV was damaged. We took it back to the store the same day. We cant seem to get ahold of the store manager. They had us wait 2 hours and the problem was never resolved. We were told to come back on Monday 10/14/2024 to speak to the Manager at 9am. We got to Conns only to be told to come back tomorrow. The Manager is not in and will not be in. ****** and ***** are the ones weve been talking to. We keep getting the run around with no resolution. Everyone I have spoken to keeps asking for the phone number associated to the account. 1. I dont have an account 2. The store is going out of business. What I have is both receipts for both purchases and my bank statement. I dont believe this matter is being handled in good faith.

Conns HomePlus (Conns) appreciates the opportunity to respond to Ms. ****** concerns. We have a history of over 130 years of quality customer service and satisfaction, and we would not want anything to impair that record. As a reminder, Ms. ***** may contact Conns regarding questions by calling our **************** Helpdesk at?************** or?online?at ******************************.??
Ms. ***** has stated in the complaint:
1. She overpaid on her account before we filed for bankruptcy and was initially told she would get a refund, but now she is being told we cannot issue a refund.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. On 8/24/24, Ms. ***** paid $3,062.00 to close her account. Once the payment was processed, an overpayment of $129.72 was owed. However, we could not process refunds at that time due to Conns filing bankruptcy and going out of business.
We researched Ms. ****** complaint and found that after making her final payment, she had an overpayment of $129.72 due. The refund was pending due to the automatic stay of Chapter 11 bankruptcy, which caused a delay.
We confirmed that on 10/19/2024, the refund check of $129.72 was mailed out to Ms. ****** address on file. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience Ms. ***** has experienced during this process.
Conns HomePlus values Ms. ***** as a customer and appreciates her bringing her concerns to our attention.

I went in person to the Conn's Homeplus store in *******************************************************, 3 October with a check for $602.00 to pay of the balance of $375.30, from my ************* to pay my balance off in full. The underwriter went off what was the balance on my credit report at the time, the company did not update their recored on timely manner. NOW, Conn's Home PLus, REFUSE to give me back my refund of $224.70.I did not want anything else to do with this buisness. I have told them since day one of last year. I regret that I ever saw their add on *****. After I sent one furniture back I did not know I start a entire second contract with them, they tried to charge interest on me. More I pay off the more my balance kept going up higher. Every time I talk to customer service, they kept give me a different book to read. Now since there in chapter 11, closing all stores' that not my problem.Business Response

I purchased a couch from Conn's HomePlus on ******************* in *******, *******, on October 14th. At the time of purchase, I was informed that all the recliners worked but they didn't have an outlet for me to try it on. Was also told delivery services were unavailable; however, I was provided with referrals for delivery services. I hired one of them for the pickup and delivery of the couch to my residence, and paid them $150 for the service.Upon the couch's arrival, we discovered that it was not working. Specifically, it is an electric recliner that will not operate manually. I have reached out to the store and Conn's customer service multiple times, but each representative has only provided me with new contact numbers, none of which have resolved my issue. I am now left with a non-functioning huge couch in my living room, and the company has not offered to inspect the item, provide a repair, or issue me a refund. This experience has been exceedingly frustrating, and I find the level of customer service to be unacceptable. I believe that PER LAW I'm entitled to a repair, a replacement or a refund for the major incovenience caused.Business Response

Conns HomePlus (Conns) appreciates the opportunity to respond to Mr. ******** concerns. We have a history of over 130 years of quality customer service and satisfaction, and we would not want anything to impair that record. As a reminder, Mr. ******* may contact Conns regarding questions by calling our **************** Helpdesk at?************** or?online?at ******************************.??
Mr. ******* has stated in the complaint:
1. He purchased a couch and was told all recliners worked, but he could not test it in the store. Once he got the item home, he found that the electric recliner did not work and has contacted us multiple times for a resolution;
2. He is requesting a refund.
Our investigation reveals that:
1. Mr. ******* purchased a recliner, which was picked up the same day. He contacted us three days after the purchase to report that it was not working. He has been made aware that all sales are final, and he did not purchase an extended warranty to review service options;
2. We are unable to issue a refund.
Our records show that on October 14, 2024, Mr. ******* purchased an ************ recliner during our Going Out of Business final sale. We see that Mr. ******* elected to pick up the recliner that same day and signed his invoice, acknowledging the item was received in good order.
After reviewing Mr. ******** complaint, we discovered that he contacted us on October 17, 2024, stating that the recliner was not working.He was informed that we could not approve a return as all sales are final, and he did not elect to purchase a warranty to review service options.
We cannot honor Mr. ******** request for a refund. For all furniture that requires service but did not purchase a FurnitureGard extended warranty plan, all repairs are the responsibility of the customer to seek a repair provider and pay for those services.
Conns HomePlus values Mr. ******* as a customer and appreciates her for bringing her concerns to our attention.
Sincerely,
Customer Relations

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.
First of all, no extended warranty was offered at ANY point of the sale for me to decline it. For me to be able to decline it, it would've had to be offered in the first place. Second of all, I was never made aware of any flaws. In fact, me, my wife and my mom asked if everything worked properly and we were told it absolutely did, but they didn't have an outlet to show us. Also, the store has "ALL
MANUFACTURERS WARRANTIES ARE IN FULL EFFECT" signs hanging, as shown in one of the pictures attached. We also tried contacting them, and were told to contact Conn's. The other document attached is a copy of the receipt of a recliner technician who we had to pay to come take a look at the couch and basically said it will be very expensive to fix it, and he needs pieces that need to be ordered from *****, the pieces will cost us a new couch. The amount of stress and lack of help from Conn's is absolutely unacceptable. I have this huge furniture that no one can use, in the middle of my living room reminding every minute that I made a terrible mistake doing business with this store. I want them to come pick this up (since I'm not paying anyone to come get it, I already lost $150 for a non-working couch!) and refund me my money. Is literally THE LEAST they can do.
Regards,

Mr. ******** did not purchase an extended warranty on his furniture to review service options. For all furniture that requires service but did not purchase a FurnitureGard extended warranty plan, all repairs are the responsibility of the customer to seek a repair provider and pay for those services. Mr. ******* may reach out to the manufacturer to determine what service is available through their manufacturer's warranty.
