Can Blockbuster ruin my credit?
    #7651964 - 11/18/07 06:26 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I have a couple of movies that I have had for like 4 months. I recently got something from a credit protection agency about it and I still disregarded it, but now I'm wondering if there are any real adverse consequences to procrastination?


I know I can't be the only one dealing with this bullshit.:rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure they just make you pay for it? If you somehow avoid that then i'm sure it will mess up your credit especially if an agency is already sending you stuff.

i used to work there after 2 years they wont be able to see why you owe money. If u dispute it they'll get rid of it.

Blockbuster can't ruin your credit, but you can!  :smile:  Just bring the movies back & pay the fines.  They may have already reported your theft to the credit bureaus, in which case the black mark will take about 7 years to "go away."  If they have not reported you yet, then you may be able to avoid this by returning the movies you stole.

A notice from a collection agency indicates that they do take action to recover their losses.  If the agency collects the money, they get to keep 50% of the fine.  If not, it does not cost the client (Blockbuster) a thing.  :shrug:

The Blockbuster in my town requires a credit card to open an account, and they will automatically charge the full replacement cost of the movies to your card if you do not return them.  Too many thefts, I suppose.

Well shit.

this shit is disguised. nowhere on this notice does it say anything about penalties. It just said to settle the debt within 30 days.

I think it's been 30 days
