Fun Cash & 2year tenure
They advertise "Fun Cash" or building up points after so many purchases. I have thirty dollars worth. I'm having a hard time
cashing them in. Its set where you can't mail in a request for a free DVD and its hard finding it on the web.

Second complaint; after two years we should'nt be required to fill
out an order form stating we do not want the directors selection or they will send it to us. I believe my tenure is up.

Haven't ever had a worst experience!
Columbia House DVD Club
www.columbiahouse.com

I signed up with Columbia House and haven't ever had a worse experience. When I first signed up the documentation that I filled out stated that I would have to purchase two more movies within 1 year but when I became a member this became 4 movies. After getting past that, I tried several times to get in touch with them but they were very hard to impossible to contact. The phone number they had on the enrollment documentation was only a recording and I could not talk with an operator.

Then I pre-ordered a movie which would have completed my requirement to purchase 4 movies. I had thought that the movie was likely in the mail and so I decided to cancel my account. I wasn't happy with the account to begin with. After canceling the account I went back and found that the movie I had pre-ordered was not set to release for 3 months. What kind of idiot company submits a movie for pre-order more than 3 months before it releases. BTW, the information regarding release date was not immediately accessible where the pre-release request was (i.e. they didn't provide the information before making the order).

Now, my account is canceled, which I am happy for but I had to make a final payment and I don't know if the selection that I pre-ordered will be sent to me or not. Based on their past record, I think that the chances are very likely that it will not.

Sending unordered video and charge me for it
I am receiving DVD's from Columbia House DVD Club, with charges reflecting on my credit card that they have on file. I have not ordered the video's that they are sending nor did I authorize any automatic transactions on my credit card.

Sending DVDs which I never signed up for
Sending DVDs which I never signed up for & said i would be charged a late fee if not payed within 30 days. If they send something in mail you didn't sign for you don't have to send it back you can just through it away.

Unsolicited packages
I recently received a DVD from Columbia House that I absolutely did NOT order. It was in a package with a vague (PO Box) return address, so I opened it. According to the enclosed invoice, I had joined their DVD club and this was the introductory DVD. I taped the package and attempted to return the DVD immediately. The post office wouldn't return an opened package without ME paying the postage, so I attempted to contact someone at Columbia House to request a postage paid return label. There is no way to contact a customer service representative on their website and the 800 number on the invoice for customer service is a joke - you can't reach a human being! AND if you attempt to cancel your membership, it promises to send you a statement to fulfill your membership obligation. WHY should I be obligated to pay for something that I never ordered in the first place and HOW are these people getting away with a scam like this? I refuse to pay the return postage for an item that I never ordered, so the DVD is sitting on my desk in the original packaging waiting for a postage paid return label. If I wanted to watch Coach Carter, I would rent it from Netflix!

Never joined DVD club!
On 05/31/07 I received a small box in the mail from a PO Box in Greenville SC. I assumed it was some type of free sample to I opened the box only to find a DVD from Columbia House DVD Club with an invoice for $5.30 and instructions to make my next selections. I immediately called the customer service number on the invoice 1-800-262-2001 -- what a run-around. You can never reach a live person -- I pushed every option available to try to get a live person on the other end of the line. So my second thought was to put the DVD back in the mail box, marked the package "refused" return to sender. I get a note from our dear postal carrier that because sender did not make the package "return postage guaranteed" that I would have to pay $2.75 to return the item. I then tried to contact Columbia House via their web-site. What a joke! So once again I called the 800 number and went through the process of canceling the account only to be informed by the lovely recorded message that I would be billed for 2 more DVD's at the full price. I have been searching the web all day for complaints against this company and found that some kind person listed a phone number 1-812-466-8636 -- this is the phone number for Columbia House Management. I called the number and of course no live person to speak with however I did leave a detailed message about my situation of receiving this DVD and not being able to contact a live person. I also informed them that I thought that this was a scam and that I did not want my credit rating affected so I was giving them 7 business day to respond and resolve the situation. If I did not hear from them within that time period that I would be filing with the Attorney Generals Office in both my state and Indiana. GUESS WHAT!! Within 1 hour I had a phone call back from Trent at Columbia House -- per our phone conversation my account will be canceled with no charges and he will be sending me a prepaid envelope to return the DVD. So we will see what happen...

Shabby business practices
I am an EX Member!!! Having always paid my bills the SAME day I received a shipment I should have never received merchandise I did not order! But I did. I returned it, since it was not ordered, and just let them pay postage.

I will NOT pay for anyone else's mistake!!! Before long I was getting bills for the postage, so I wrote them, seven times to no avail. I also called four times and was assured that all was fine and not to worry. Today I am reading my second "Collection Letter " and was told that they will report me for unsatisfactory dealings with me. This will go into my Credit Report and leave a mark on my Credit!!!

I will NEVER do business with them again and am searching for further places to report their shabby business practices. I tried calling but talking to a machine does nothing and so I am going further.

Ignoring request to cancel club membership
I have noted "Cancel" on the past two order cards I've received, and am still receiving order cards from this company. I have fulfilled the club requirements by ordering the required number of products and I now wish to cancel immediately. I don't appreciate the unauthorized charges on my credit card and consider this FRAUD!

Can't get through to a representative to discuss account
When logging on to the account, there is no contact link. I need to discuss this account with a human being and when calling their 800-262-2001 number I can't get through to anyone except recording. It's been 2 weeks since I mailed a payment and they have not (according to their computer generated system) yet received it and they have suspended my account. I can't pull up an order-history on the website even to see what has been order, returned, etc.

Please help! ASAP!
Thank you!
