I asked the question about the Best Buy Financing around two weeks ago and now I have one simple question that I need an answer for.
I used the Circuit City Financing Program (no interest until 2011) on a 40" flat panel and I'm aware that CC filed for Bankruptcy Protection. IF CC goes bankrupt within the months I'm in the no interest program and completely shuts down... what will happen to me? Do I have to pay CC completely when they fall or what?

Thanks!
 
Read your contract on the no interest which I believe is through Chase. You really owe them money, not CC.
 
I see this is an older topic, but I figured I'd chime in

Arthur -- Chase extended you the promotional financing. Despite CC having gone bankrupt, you are not obligated to pay the remaining balance of your credit line all at once. If you look at your statement, there should be a line for Promotional Financing. It tells you when the promotion ends (i.e. mine is for 1/2011) as well as how much has been deferred thus far.

This was a question on my mind as well, having bought a 50" Plasma last year via Circuit City/Chase financing.

So, in short, pay it off before the promotional period and you should be fine -- and no, you won't have to pay it all at once now.

Now, if Chase goes belly-up, then it's a different story...
 
thanks for reviving an almost 4 month old thread... please dont dumpster dive just for the sake of posting :(
