    Currently on my third Blockbuster free trial and I am very happy with their service. I am also on the 3 months for the price of 1 with Lovefilm for the second time and they are much better this time round. I am also nearing the end of a second 2 months for the price of 1 with Screen Select but I am finding them to be rather slow this time.

    What's the key with the blockbuster trial - different email address??

    I'm running out of movies I'd like to see. 'Assault on precinct 13' has been top of my list for weeks now so it must be hugely popular. As I think Lovefilm is the best so far I've decided to freeze my account rather than cancel. For anyone who quit the free trial hopping which one did you stick with?

    Also I've become rather fond of my list of reviews and would rather continue to build it up than start over.:D

    I have stuck with Lovefilm, particularly as when i cancelled my paying subscription they sent me a good 3 months for price of one offer. Screenselect also did the same, who I also think are really good, so I will choose between them at the end of the three months I think. Screenselect seem to respond faster to mail than lovefilm.

    The key to a few blockbuster trial is different home addresses I think. I have had two, one delivered to my own home and one to my mums, although I used the same card to register. Blockbusters were very good too.

    A query; had a return offer to blockbuster for the 3 disc unlimited package half price for 2 months(£7). Tried to sign up, but I wanted to change the card as the card regsitered at BB had been cancelled, but it wouldnt let me change it! I didn't want to risk going throught he whole process to change it in case they charged the old card. Still waiting for email guidance...

    Any one else re-signed up this way?

    I must say, all these trials and offers are really excellent value cheap entertainment. Goodbye pub, hello Woody Allen and some knitting:)

    It does seem to be email address. I have had 3 back to back free trials using 3 different email addresses. I used the same payment card twice and a different one the third time.

    I have received an email from screenselect to say their was a fire in their warehouse on Thursday and that all discs sent out or returned have pretty much been writen off!!

    I had only joined them that evening so had not sent any discs to me as yet but hopefully my 21 day trial will not be too affected!!!

    Have a look here for a Blockbuster 1 month trial (standard trial is 2 weeks but code changes it to a month). When you choose to "Redeem the Voucher" as part of the registration process it gives no instant indication that you've upgraded to the month but it tells you "1 month" at the end of the sign up process.

    Hope this helps and that I've been helpful without breaking any message board rules.
    Regards
