Actually I do. They were trying to charge me a late fee for a video that was due back at noon, but had been returned about 4pm. I said waive the fee, or I'd never return. I've never been back.

In the spring of ‘07 changed it to 3 out at a time and a limit of 5 in store exchanges… If you wanted the unlimited in store exchanges the price went to $21.99 a month, an almost 33% increase.. Than in December of ‘07 they had another 20% increase…I also found that new releases had long wait times and the stores only had a limited numbers of copies..There are rumors that the company has financial issues.. The stock has dropped from a high of $30.00 in May of ‘02 to $3.00 a share currently.. They have been closing store nationwide and opening up few new ones… I went to Netflix where I’m paying $9.99 a month and I’m using the unlimited download videos which are great, and no trip to the store to return them… I just cancelled my account Total Access with BlockBuster Video… I had the three out at a time plus unlimited in store exchanges for $16.99 a month..
