- safety1st 4y agoRealistically the main thing OP has to worry about is this somehow getting his Google account flagged and locked by some buggy algorithm at a later date. Nothing involving a human would ever come about this, but it's Google we're talking about.
- heretogetout 4y agoAnd/or a friend of theirs getting their account banned because they used OP's wifi one day.
- ageitgey 4y agoProbably not with Google, but you never know. I moved once and got a $10 final gas bill sent to the old address that I never knew about. The company was scummy and added a $10 late fee after 30 days. Then another $10 late fee after 30 days, etc, until it was around $120 and then they put it on my credit report and sent it to a collector. This was like 20 years ago, but scummy fly-by-night companies will do this.
- wolfpack_mick 4y agoThis happened to me with employment insurance just a month ago. Invoice went to the old address. I paid the invoice 4 days after the due date, but not the €10 late fee that i didn't know about. So they put the €10 late fee to debt collection and i had to pay €40. What enraged me most was that that the insurance company supposedly didn't know my new address, although they are my landlord at the new address... The debt collection of course had no problem finding out my new address.
- ChoGGi 4y agoDoes your mail service not have a temporary forwarding service available?
- dazc 4y agoThis is fairly common practice with utility companies and banks. I don't think Google have latched on to this scam yet but I'm sure they will eventually. AFAIK (in the UK, at least), for an account to affect your credit record, without it actually going to court, would need for you to have signed a credit agreement at the outset.
- Nextgrid 4y ago> AFAIK (in the UK, at least), for an account to affect your credit record, without it actually going to court, would need for you to have signed a credit agreement at the outset I don't believe that's correct as scummy telecoms use the threat of ruining your credit to keep people paying even if they delivery no/subpar service.
- dazc 4y agoTelecoms companies do usually require a signed credit agreement. Which is how they are able to make these threats.
