    There is an option to purchase a one month subscription, but you only get the 750 points with three months or more.
    Bother. Is it possible to change once you have ordered? I don't to have received a confirmation email yet.

    A word of warning .............and some more advice on free cash.....

    firstly - 3 months min for your 750 points.

    You may want to take the 14 day trial and have the gift start some time after that finishes........but if you take a Tesco DVD rental trial you won't be able to also have a screenselect one (since they are both videoisland) and that attracts a £12.50 (real cash money) rebate from quidco.com. I've had a tesco DVD trial which netted me 250 CC points too.

    There are more cashback opportunties for DVD trials at quidco.com - I'm on lovefilm 14 days which will net me £13 in cold hard cash.

    Many more trials are details at https://www.dvdtrials.co.uk which is a good resource but they are revenue generating links for the guy who runs it (not me sadly). Also bear in mind if you want quidco cashback it's best not to use the codes you find for longer trial periods as your cashback could be cancelled out.

    do we know when the 3 months starts? i bought myself a gift 3 months and received the email.

    No where on it does it say, you have 3 months from NOW, so click NOW or lose some time?

    Won;t it be 3 months from activation of the gift cert?

    I think it's 3 months from the start date you specified which is the date when they will email you the gift certificate

    does the buyer of the gift voucher not get confirmation, until the start date?

    i bought a gift voucher sub this morning, which i want to start in March, but as of yet, have had no confirmation of my order

  • just signed up for the 3 months starting 1st dec then signed up again for a further 3 months from when this expires, hopefully will get my 1500 points without bother. this plus the 14 day trial thats nearing an end is quite handy - only gripe they dont seem to do psp movies/games :-(

    Lets you buy a gift subscription until 2010, therefore possible to buy 3 monthly gift subscriptions running concurrently. Total spend £378.20 for 15,000 points? Please check this as my maths may be out.

    Has anyone tried this out? It would take a fair few minutes to keep repeat buying the gift subscription. It could also be a quick and easy way of topping up your clubcard holiday credit.....

    Damn, I took a three weeks free trial (found a code for the extra free week) and then received a mail saying Id get a £1 a month off if I signed up for 3 months which I did. That was a week ago. Wonder if its too late to cancel and take out the new offer.
