    These trials are pretty poor, they require you to list like 12 dvds at once, they then send you most of the older/cr''aper ones before anyone of the good or new release ones.

    I found their DVD service to be better than the others. Lots of new titles and delivered very quickly.

    As far as listing 12 DVDs at once, I'll think you'll find even if you list 4/5 titles, they will start to send you out DVD's.

    I don't understand why complain when a company is willing to give them free rentals for a month, beats paying for them!

    ...on a slightly similar note.......if you work for blockbusters, or gamestation, you can get 10 FREE rentals per week.

    So there you go.

    I mean a few films that i havnt seen yet, i picked all the good ones & new releases then a few i hadnt seen yet but wanted to. They always seemed to send the older or not so good ones out before any of the new ones.

    Dr pepper, sprite and lilt. Though for some reason not on the diet versions, just on the full sugar.
    And, as a bonus, it's buy one get one free at tesco at the mo.
    Softstuff- Officially better than 007

    -All rentals this week are 99p per night
    -Maximum number of rentals is 6 per person, but if you're a regular (ish) customer this can be overridden to 8
    -Rent one get one free voucher (valid 31/07-13-08) is given to everyone who rents this week, only one voucher per account will work.
    -If you rent soemthing which is normally a 7 night rental (including TV boxsets which are normally £5 but say you only want it for the night, you can return in 7 days later and incur no extra fees as the computer stll registers all these as 7 night rentals.

    Any other question, please feel free to ask!
