    I got the same exact promotion from them. But the card says "Subject to terms and conditions, see www.lovefilm.com/giftcard for details." and on that webpage it states at the bottom in the T&C "7. Existing subscribers or those who have previously enjoyed a free trial with any LOVEFiLM-powered site are not eligible"
  • I had this card through the post too and used it fine even though I have had a trial before. I didn't even read the T&Cs - the card clearly stated that it was for me to use so I didn't think twice about it!
    :D

    Hi, Did you got to the webpage www.lovefilm.com/giftcard and enter the code and picked that you were a previous subscriber, using the same login, address and card details?

    I might try this after the Christmas holiday if it will work.

    i cant remember now. I'm pretty sure i went to the giftcard page and created an account as i couldn't remember my log-in details i used for my free trial ages back.

    Aside from the introductory offers would you recommend lovefilm.com, please? Any problems with it? Any other dvd rental companies you'd recommend more? Thanks

    I did - used my old login details, didn't need to change the card as the old one was still on the system and is still valid. I got my old list back and everything.

    I found Blockbuster better than LoveFilm in respect of getting DVDs high up on your want list, especially new releases.

    Did you previously have a 3 month free trial with them?

    I got one of these promotions last christmas and used it, so doubt that it would let me use another 3 month free trial.
