We have used
our video surveillance system from Stealth Security Services
many times to record video footage that has helped settle
customer disputes, payment issues, locate missing merchandise
and identify more than one thief.
Greg Christian, Store Manager, Aaron's, Corinth, Mississippi
Clients of Stealth Security, a
leading provider of video surveillance for the rent-to-own and
home-goods leasing industry, are finding new ways to use video
to improve operations and protect profits.
Greg Christian, store manager for Aaron's in Corinth,
Mississippi said, "We have used our video surveillance system
from Stealth Security Services many times to record video
footage that has helped settle customer disputes, payment
issues, locate missing merchandise and identify more than one
thief."
Christian explained the Stealth Security Video system was
recently used to settle a payment dispute. "A customer claimed
that his wife had come in to make their payment. "The customer
told us the day and time that his wife would have come in to the
store and paid her balance. We certainly did not want to bill a
customer twice, so we checked the video images. By reviewing the
video of that day, we saw that the customer never came in the
store and had not paid the payments."
The Corinth store has also used the Stealth Security video
system to question customers that did not pay for their
merchandise. “We have caught footage of missing merchandise on
film, and then later got it back when we called the customer and
asked for it.” When you catch a thief on camera, you have
admissible video footage you can always use. “We had a customer
that purchased an Xbox, then called us and said that she didn’t
get it. After looking at the tapes, the recorded video showed us
that she had already taken it.”
“Someone
also tried to leave the back door open, to get in the store
later. We caught that on camera too,” added Christian.
Using video footage can benefit you and your rent-to-own store
in more ways than one. Using it as a management tool, training
device, security device, and as recorded evidence, is just
the beginning.
