Best Buy - Such A Scam

Camera Purchase - Complaint

READING, PENNSYLVANIA -- Best buy is by far the most deceitful company I have ever bought a product from. I purchased a camera from them for almost $900, and even though I paid it off before the interest would have been applied (18 months later) I was slapped with several hundred dollars in other fees during the process. Now that my account is paid off, they are telling me I still owe another approximately $150 to them. But from where? This company is in the business of squeezing every penny out of their customers that they can. On top of that, no one could ever give me a straight answer to any of my financial questions, and when I got some sort of answer, it was always different from what the last person had told me.

Overall, I am disgusted with this company and I will never be purchasing anything through them again.

It's not best buy, it's the bank that administers their credit cards.

What does your payment history indicate? If you can prove that the balance was paid off prior to the end of the promotion period, you have a legitimate complaint, but remember: if you fail to pay off even one cent before the expiration date, you will be required to pay all interest charges from the date of purchase.

i recently used my best buy card to make a large purchase, i had to select the "no interest if paid by" option. if not, it would be a normal interest accruing charge.

I would think that all you'd have to do is lay out all your statements and check off the payments you have on your bank statements, and they'll tell the story.

Were you late with even one payment, even if it was by a couple of min to an hour?
