I have noticed quite a bit of talk lately regarding strange charges and other billing issues with Redbox…
Redbox has heard you and is making some changes to their billing process. From a Redbox email:
New! Easier Billing Process
Tracking your rental charges made easy! Redbox will only charge you once, after you return your last DVD. Rent one DVD, one charge. Rent five DVDs, one charge. It’s that simple.(Note: You will see a temporary “authorization hold” of $1.00 on your debit/credit card statement; rest assured, it will be released within 3-14 days after your rental.)

Phone: 1-866-REDBOX3

Hopefully this will make things better for everyone.
Leave a comment below and let us know about your Redbox billing experiences. Is it getting better for you?

I rented a movie called Cloverfield from your redbox machine at hannafords in Topsham maine, it would not play on my dvd player, message said cannot read disc, I tried calling your 1.800 number but it kept sending me to an international information at a charge of 5 dollars

I was charged $25.00 for a movie I returned. Beauwolf is the name of the movie. I did return the movie, and it said I returned it succesfully! I returned it to the redbox either on nissan dr. in smyrna, tn., or the one on almaviile rd. in smyrna, tn. This movie is not one I wouldv’e kept!!! It wasn’t a very good movie. Thanks!!

I tried to return 2 movies the night after they were due, and it wouldn’t let me return them. It was Bean’s Holiday and rush hour 3. They were late because of this problem. I finally tried the next day and it let me return them. I was charged for a extra day for both movies. The email address that I gave in the required field is a old email but it is the one in my redbox account. I have a new email address. caseyhunt27@yahoo.com Thanks!!!

If free rentals are won on occaison with promo codes and manipulation of the system how can you just reverse charges like you are not doing anything wrong? Anybody else? Start paying attention to your bills !
