so how would I have paid any money towards it if I haven't received a bill as to where to send the $$????

You're saying that after the 6 months, I'll get a bill???

Probably b/c now they don't have to give you no interest and usually the interest rates on those things are REALLY high. Plus they get the late fees.

You can go to the store and pay it there most likely. And you can tell them you haven't gotten a bill. They will give you a phone number to call.

Not for nothing... but these are questions you should REALLY ask the store.

People here will try to help which is fine... but you are only fooling yourself in this scenario if you don't hear it directly from the horse's mouth.

Probably. I am an accountant and audit a very large financial company. Any large company, (i.e. big enough to have their own credit) will not just "lose" a tv. There are a million ways to catch it on the back end.


Additionally, it is very costly for these companies to have these no interest periods. Companies are much better off waiting for the 6 mos to be off and then make the profit on the tv and the financing charges.


Finally, morally, it isn't right, but corporate america isn't very moral either.

shana in my experience, no one gets anything for free

i'd nip it now, and avoid getting hit with all sorts of stuff later

ok, so I called....and it's possible they took a while to "sell" the loan so we MIGHT still get a bill. There was no way to tell without them getting our info, which I wasn't going to give if someone actually LOST our paperwork.

But they said we should have gotten a bill within a week of purchase
