g8or Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 I paid with a Visa Gift Card which works like a credit card with $300 balance on it to pay for the $199 laptop and then I used the remaining balnce on the Visa Gift Card at BB on Black Friday. So now AOL can't charge me on the card EDIT: I never gave my address or social security number. I'm in college so I gave them my dorm's phone # and on the CC computer it shows up as a different address. EDIT: ok its scarying me after reading the replies. i'm going to call AOL to change my card number. But I don't get it there was no contract that I had to sign. I'll ask to see if I can cancel.
VonnegutFan Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 I hope no collection agencies will be calling you this Xmas! I mean I hope it works out for you, but don't hold your breath.
Ninasnewborns Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Did you use your real name and address? They will come after you if you did. I know at my cc, they wanted my Drivers license.

You signed a contract and now you are hoping that AOL/CompUSA cannot find you to make you pay the amount stipulated in the contract. Go away.

Oh ok sorry. but thats how I paid, but that wasn't what the card was really for I had it since my birthday since October so it wasn't just I got the card to purposely get the laptop. I'll call AOL to change my card number. Anyway still a great deal even with $14.95 a month which cost to final price of laptop $479. Does anyone know if its only $14.95 or $14.95 plus tax?

That is why they had so many left over the following day.
RossMAN Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Anyone know the AOL number?Try 1-800-827-6364 Skipping out of your contract is fraudulent, thread locked.
