NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Blockbuster Inc. announced Tuesday it is abolishing late fees on all its video tapes, DVDs and video games as of Jan. 1.

QUOTE
But customers will be given a one-week grace period after that to return the product. After that grace period ends, the chain will automatically sell them the product, less the rental fee. If the customers don't want to purchase the movie or game, they can return the product within 30 days for a credit, less a restocking fee.



Story is too long to post here... but why the heck couldn't they have done this before I paid all that money in late fees? laugh.gif

It might have something to do with the fact that there is a class action suit against Hollywood Video for late fees and charging for lost videos.

Most of the UK online rentals companys do not charge late fees at all. I just sign up for the 14 days free trails then leave LOL
