The staff member who originally rented the movies me to me
indicated the following:
1. Pay the normal rental cost but if you return late
would be subject to late fees.
2. Pay the higher rental cost subject to no late fees
no matter when they are returned.
Realizing we end up paying late fees on movies more often
than I care to, I opted for the second rental option. Upon returning the
movies to the above noted location, here is what I was just told..
1. The movies had been sold to my account.
2. They had left a message on an answering machine that I
have indicated the messages are not picked up regularly and that calls can be
made to my cell phone if they are wanting to get in touch with me, this is
contained within my voicemail message, along with my cell phone number. I
did not receive a call, yet this voicemail message indicates that messages are
not picked up from the voicemail.
I was never informed of the "policy" regarding
movies being late beyond a certain period of time, are sold to your account.
C'mon now, are you making up this policy as you go along...its certainly not
posted anywhere, nor are you advised of this when taking out rental option
2.
I have left my membership card, the movies I returned, plus
the movies I was about to buy in the store and left. The very rude woman
who works there, no doubt preferred to give me a hard time rather than retain
me as a customer. I have barely visited your store as your past practices
with late fees was non-customer friendly. It appears you have found
another way to gauge people even though I paid the premium price for the
rental.
