Re: I'm Done With Blockbuster
i used to work at a hollywood video. to even set up an account we either had to have a credit or a debit card. if you didnt have that then we could set you up with an account if you had id and a phone bill, bank statement, or anything that had your name and the same address as your id. but if you did it that way then you account would kinda be more watched than others.
our store had tons of games rented out and never taken back. and many would get away with it because they would have their cards cancelled and there would be no way to charge them.
i do admit though i have opened up accounts for people who didnt have anything but an id and looked like genuine people who just wanted to rent a movie or game. partly just because i didnt want to dissapoint them and i didnt want to start an argument and have to go over why they needed such and such to open an account. and also because i just kinda just didnt like working there so i didnt care too much about the company.
i guess maybe im the reason we had so many games stolen =(Comment

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Re: I'm Done With Blockbuster
They don't. I tried to do it with my mastercard and they said that since it was linked to a checking account they couldn't take it. I just got my girlfriend to use her credit card so it worked out.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters.

Can't you open accounts with driver liscence as proof of where you live and such? I know in Canada they've allowed that.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Why don't you have C.C? I know they are bad, but it is the great way to build up your credit rating. Maybe you can get one with not that big of a balance on it.Comment

Re: I'm Done With Blockbuster
It's new. I had Saint's Row out a couple of weeks ago, and then a few days later I went and rented Madden. Then when I had to return Saint's Row, I went to re-rent it and they told me that they had a new policy of requiring an active credit card, and only one next-gen game out at a time.Comment

Re: I'm Done With Blockbuster
I plan on getting one but I made some mistakes early on with my best buy card and I'm waiting until I can get one with much lower interest rates. Right now they all seem to have 19.9%. I have gotten one as low as 14.9% but I know if I keep doing what I'm doing the interest rates will continue to drop.F-L-O-R-I-D-A! S-T-A-T-E! Florida State! Florida State! Florida State!

We had some people with exacto knives coming in stealing games left and right...they didn't even bother with the rent and not return scam. After about 30 games and DVDs got stolen they finally decided to listen to my idea of keeping the newest and most popular games behind the counter and not on the shelf.Comment
