RentSmart Offers Technology Consumers Value Added Services For Free

    SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, January 21, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- RentSmart a leading national computer and office equipment financing company, says Australian consumers want greater convenience and peace of mind when they rent laptops, notebooks and PCs because they are becoming more reliant on technology.

Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ned Montarello says Australians have always embraced the latest trends in technology and recent research showed consumers spent $13.8 billion on technical consumer goods such as laptops, notebooks and PCs in the first 9 months of last year - up 8.4% from a year earlier.

To give consumers greater peace of mind and convenience, Mr Montarello says RentSmart is offering:
- Free online data back-up and remote data access for the duration of their rental contracts
- Free online data transfer
- A free temporary replacement laptop if their product is stolen or faulty

"These free, significant value added services are important considering more Australian consumers are becoming more mobile in the way that they use technology for storing email, music, photo and media files," said Mr Montarello

The RentSmart product is available through leading Australian retailers JB Hi-Fi, Dick Smith, Officeworks and NextByte.

RentSmart fills the gap for customers by offering a service between a credit card and a bank loan, allowing customers to get on-the-spot financing approval for the technology they need via a cash flow and tax friendly operating lease.

RentSmart is a part of the ThinkSmart Group of companies.
