I believe so.
I had the same thing, with a rent to own furniture place, 27 years ago.
I moved from one side of the country to the other, to open a new corporate office, but the move was hasty. 2 weeks from decision to hitting the road.
I just packed up everything, not thinking about the TV I rented-to-own. When it came time to pay, I had also switched banks, so I called them.
After I explained that I moved, and wanted to setup a new debit-from-account, the woman on the other end lambasted me, on and on, explaining breach of contract, that I stole the TV, I'm a thief, this sort of thing. Obviously my mistake for not reading the contract, and they were local only, so they had the same sort of geo-only clause, but at the same time I called them! No late payments, completely current, yet they unloaded on me like I was 6 months late and had planned some sort of elaborate theft.
Fed up with the abuse, I asked her to just get over it, and tell me where to send new payments. Nope, I was apparently a thief, an ass, a liar, on and on again.
I cut that short, asked again how to send payment, or do they not want anything? Again the yelling. I shouted goodbye and hung up.
I had given her my new address and phone number yet never heard from them again.
With these sorts in this industry, I am not surprised they just towed.
