Why not lease it (Tempoe), is a fictitious company that over charge customers with hidden fees. I purchase and item for at least three hundred dollars. I was told there is no interest like Rental Companies. That part is true because it is three times worst. Under no circumstances would I ever inform any to deal with them at all.

Whynotleaseit I was ripped off by why not lease it thru sears. Even tho I paid off lease agreement they continued to take payments from my bank I was charged over 335.00 for origanal lease agreement. I was told by Bank of America that I wasnt the only one. I had to change my account to stop them from changing my account. Im a vet and on a tight budget and cant afford to pay that extra money. Its a shame that the company is taking advantage of so many people out there when things are so tough. Shame on them and all there corporate big wigs.

They did not inform Kmart how to run their program. According to the lease paper work I was supposed tobe done paying on it at the amount of 944. 97 was the initial amount . The way that reads I should have been done. but they back you and also have it set as a open ended lease and if you dont opt out buy returning furniture or by buying out your screwed for Kmart furniture. Kmart should explain it as a lease nothing else they explained it to me as lease to owen .once I paid 944 dollars i would be done

Went to Kmart to a washer, mind you I did have the money in bank to buy it, after talking to them with the why not lease it signs all we discussed it. So we picked out washer and went to front desk while they got it ready and they esplained to us it was going Ibe like rent a center type. Ok since washer was on sale I could take a couple extra payments instead of draining checking accountant.

Thinking this would be paid off in November I called them in Decenmber to ask why still taking payment out of checking acct. they said it was not paid off yet we could buy it out right for another $300 and some odd dollars well I am still thinking it is like rent a center well couple mor months it will be paid and it is Holidays I am running low on money.

Now it is almost May I call them they finally explain they system I am still leasing I have not bought it out right I had to pay the $300 and some odd dollars to pay it off and get out of lease. So to purchase a washer for little over $500 with out taxes I have paid for months thinking it will be mine with this payment plan.

Kmart prints up a ontract as you stand n wait for them to be done that is like a book and real small print you can't read if you do not have glasses and they fail to explain this system in full. I paid for almost a year Buyer beware this is a scam.

I went to sears to buy a generator. they didn't have it in stock. they had to order it. I started paying whynotleaseit that day. I made 3 additional $180 dollar payments and still hadn't received it. I called sears and they said they didn't know what was going on but would get back with me. I did stop payments that day.i called tempo and they said it was my problem and I owed them the cost of the lease. I called sears and they said they don't know what happened to the generator. now. over a year later I'm being sued by them claiming I have the generator and didn't return it. I called Nathan the store owner and he shows I paid but never received the generator. now. I'm out money I already paid and will be sued for a generator I never received.

So our refrigerator broke and we needed a new one but had to save up for one which would take a few months. We decided to lease one for a few months until we could gather the money to buy one so we decided on going to Sears. When we got there we picked out a refrigerator that was $900. We were quickly approved and paid the upfront cost which was a couple hundred dollars.

We decided to take delivery instead of having it delivered to save time. We were told after the 5 month lease was up we could have the option to buy. After the lease was up we had saved money to buy the fridge. We called and everytime they were completely unprofessional. They proceeded to tell us that our state did not allow a payoff option and that we woul have to continue paying the lease fee with only 10 out of 186 dollars going toward the payoff.

They still refuse to pick up the equipment and continued charging us the lease fee of 186 a month. I figure I will end up paying 4 thousand dollars for a 900 dollar refrigerator by the time I finish paying for it since they won’t let me pay it off. They are forcing me to pay the financing charges for a very long time and are getting 176 of the 186 as financing charges every month and 10 dollars is going toward the payoff. I don’t know if Sears is aware of what is going on but they should know that their customers are being taken advantage of.

I was completely mislead by purchasing a refrigerator from sears. Went into Sears to purchase a refrigerator and the sales person told me I could purchase through Whynotleaseit . she told me it would be paid off in 10 payments. By weekly. Well after looking more closely at the receipt after paying $2100 Whynotleaseit says your not done . No, you will pay forever if you do not use your 90 day option. So I called Whynotleaseit and the rep said yes you must pay it that way to pay off . So I asked can I pay it off on a certain date after that 90 day. Then he says yes but the same amount. I was furious. I asked him who the CEO of the company was and he could not tell me or give me their phone number. I told him I was going to report to the better business bureau he told me fine. Then he asked if I would like to take a survey . I laughed and said yes but you won't like it. Long story short. Do not purchase through them your item will never be paid for until you beg to pay the original outrageous price. Shame on sears for letting this company work with them.. Please read and listen to this report. Font be a victim of Whynotleaseit like so many of us have already.

I leased a lawn mower from Sears through Why Not Lease It, and was advised that I have 5 months to decide if I would like to keep the item. If so, I'd go on to continue paying for it. The lawn mower stopped working as I was mowing the lawn a few months later (after several payments), and I called sears for repair. They didn't have the ability to repair it as obligated, so I decided that I would return the mower through the leasing program. I called the 1888-WHYNOT-0 line, and spoke with a representative and cancelled the service. They said that a representative would schedule pickup.

I never recieved a call to schedule pickup. A month later I called to see what was going on and was told that this is an attempt to collect a debt! What debt! After trying to get the pickup scheduled and getting nowhere, I ended the call and called back to try with a different representative. This representative apologized and said that they would schedule it as soon as possible.

Again, I never got a call back. I soon forgot about the callback, and a few months later recieved a call from a debt collector, whom I immediately explained the situation. He responded that they "HAVE NO WAY TO PICK THE ITEM UP" and ended the call with them promising to check with their client (why not lease it).

A year later, I get a call from a debt collector threatening to engage an administrative law judge. I told them that I would not be bullied into accepting being scammed.

NOONE should ever use their service. They are terrible and fraudsters with no intent on picking up items as promised, should you end the contract within the alotted time.

I also got scammed by Whynotleaseit. I wad tools I could pay this off but when I called I wad tools that I couldn't pay it off in 90 days. The price they are charging is triple the cost of the lawnmower. That is highway robbery.
