Since in most states the _maximun_ an attorney
and/or collection agency can collect for their
trouble for collecting is 10% of the debt, IT'S
NOT WORTH IT!!!

They would not report it to a collection agency
that could ruin your creidt (there's a difference
here) unless it was, literally $100's.

I'll agree; in fact this thread made me think
about it so I went to their web site and after not
having been a member for a while I signed up
again.

You'd have to take them to court to prove this
however.  They can claim you have a bill with them
and as such report your unpayment to credit
bureaus.  To get this chanced could cost a lot of
time and money.
