Over a decade ago, when I first left home, I bought a bunch of home appliances on finance. They never collected any payments, and a few years later, they went bankrupt. Nobody ever came after me and nothing ever appeared on my credit report.

It doesn't happen often, but it does happen.

Same here, although it was bedroom furniture and bed/mattress etc., to the tune of a couple of thousand dollars. Even set up autopay.

Never once charged. Two years later, company was shutdown. Ten years ago now.

Did they restructure or liquidate?
