Columbia House DVD Club SCAM

 
Columbia House DVD Club SCAM

We have never been a member of Columbia House DVD Club. When I can rent a movie for a couple of bucks at the local video store, I'm sure not paying for it.


In January of this year, we received a bill for $69 from a collection agency stating we owed this amount to Columbia House DVD Club. This was a minor issue and we requested documentation from them. We have heard nothing more. Recently, we started looking for a new car. When the dealership pulled our credit report, guess what showed up? Columbia House reported us as over 90 late in paying. What makes this even stranger is that, according to the credit report, we opened our account in January 2007 and their latest report was sent in February. How that makes 90 day I don't know.


Repeated attempts to reach Columbia House have been fruitless since we have no Account # to enter and there is no way to actually speak to a person without one.


What do I do? My wife, who is less skeptical of companies than I am, has been grilling everyone we know trying to find out who joined in her name. These guys are pigs. If they were a legitimate company, it would be far easier to speak to someone to resolve a problem. I see way too many complaints about their tactics to believe that any of this is accidental. PLEASE HELP US!! How do we get to a real person to handle this??

This is a very old post but my husband and I are having the same problem. We cant contact anyone in customer service or contact anyone through email. We even sent out a certified mailing letter to the company and have had response! They say we owe over $200. We have NEVER heard of them or used their services! How can anyone spend over $200 on dvds online? They cant be real!!

How do I cancel my membership with Columbia House DVD? Is there a phone number where I can talk to someone in person. Sounds like it is a very hard process to cancel. Please help


Thank you
