Dear Mr***,
We have recently received your complaint regarding the unplayable rental you received as well as the refund that we have requested for the first night rentalWe sincerely apologize for the unsatisfactory experience you feel that Redbox has given youYou stated in your
claim that you requested a desired resolution of a refund to be posted the same day any charges for the disc come through or a cancellation of the charges
Under most circumstances Redbox does not refund on additional day charges for discsTo avoid accruing additional day charges all Redbox discs are due back by PM the following dayWe understand it took a few days to be sure that it was not your player that was causing the issue. Redbox values you as a customer and as a one-time courtesy once the disc is returned and the charge is collected we will be happy to provide you a full refund
We are able to process the refund the same day the collection goes through however, depending on your financial institution it can take up to business days for the refund to actually post to your accountRedbox is unable to guarantee a same business day refund to your account or prevent the charges from being collected once the disc is returned
At your convenience please return the disc to any Redbox locationOnce the disc is returned please let us know and we will process the refund for the full charge to your account
Going forward, if you receive an unplayable disc please contact our Customer Care Department immediately and we will be happy to compensate you in the form of a credit, promo code or refundPlease understand that for any additional days you choose to keep the disc you are responsible for the additional day charges accruedThe maximum rental period on games is days, if the disc is not returned within this time frame you will be billed for the full daysWe are unable to refund your account until the disc is verified as returned

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: The first phone call I made was about you guys taking my moneyAnd when I spoke with the man he said they were sending out reps to Hannaford in Bennington VT to retrieve the moviesI have two people that watched me put the movies in the red boxSee I didn't receive the refund due to you guys over drafting me first and then putting the money in while I was already way overdrafted because of you guys! I can't believe the customer service that I am gettingAll the way around this is just terrible service, a scam and a rip offThere is nothing my bank will do because it is not their fault...it's yours! I will find another way to get my money back from youA lawyer already told me this is definitely a caseSo thank you very much for the awful supportI will not recommend you to anyone.Sincerely,*** ***

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: my financial institution told me to contact Redbox to refund these charges as they were not authorizedMy card is a prepaid debit card and they do not cover lost or stolen damages, so I have done what they told me toI will be filing criminal charges against Redbox for stealing money off my card as they are allowing people to use cards without authorizationHow can they just take forty some dollars off my card when it wasn't even meThat's a criminal act and fraud .
Sincerely,*** ***

Dear Ms***,
Thank you for your prompt responseWe understand this is an upsetting circumstance which has taken quite a bit of your time
Please understand that Redbox does not bill for rentals in full until all of the rentals on the transction have been returned or have exceeded the maximum day rental periodWhen your card is swiped at the box for a transaction attempt, your financial institution may place an authorization hold for the initial day rentalThis would have took place on 10/2/when the card was swipedOnce you are charged for the rentals the hold on the authorization is then released and you no longer see the pending chargeThe only charge applied to the account is the full charge associated with the transction
We understand that a refund of $was offeredThis refund was extended as a courtesy if the rentals had not been disputed as a fraudulent charge with your financial institutionOnce you have filed a formal dispute with your finanancial institution regrettably any charges associated with the dispute are out of our control as mentioned previously the financial institution has their own internal process of assisting with the reimbursement of charges that are unauthorized to your account
The resources we have show that movies were rented from the Redbox at the Circle K located on EBell Rdat 11:PMOnce again, the card must be physically swiped at the box in order for any rentals to be releasedAs stated in our previous response we are happy to continue to provide any other information you may need about the rental transction
Ms*** as we have provided you with all of the information we can and have addressed all of your concerns, Redbox no considers this case closed

of $for the replacement fee of the library’s movie
As they do not have a barcode under most circumstances not Redbox rentals will eject from the boxThere are times if the disc is held at the eject slot or forced back into the machine that the box will accept itAs previously mentioned, Redbox does not have a way to track discs because they do not have a barcode
Our technicians do inventory the boxes weekly and if a disc is found that belongs to another location, they will do their best to return itYou are welcome to check with the library and see if they have received the disc back, generally this will be via mailIn the mean time although it is outside of our process I will request that a technician look for the disc
