According to the VIP registration they send you information on screenings within 10 miles of your postcode.
Cineworld MK is 12.4 miles from my house (Odeon is 12 miles), Luton one is 16 miles away.

I've now changed my profile to my parent's postcode, which is 8 miles from the MK cinema.

Maybe I'll actually get to book some tickets before they're all gone!

According to a search the following are within 10 miles. Should I be getting emails for any of these from SFF?

Cineworld Southampton
Harbour Lights Picturehouse Southampton
Odeon Southampton
Odeon Ports Solent
Vue Port Solent
Vue Eastleigh
Apollo Fareham

Or what else can I do please?

Just spotted this on the codes thread about HOP!

SFF e-mailed me with the code and details, nothing was mentioned about needing anything from Tesco's. I'm guessingthat not many people entered the Tesco competition so they are now trying to fill the cinema. :A

Has anyone noticed this before? SFF is now blocked for me at work after the recent trojan problem and I've tried accessing the site on my iPhone but can't scroll down to the showing I want (Norwich). How annoying! Think I might email them and suggest they add a scroll bar!

On the print out the picture says you need the competition letter, so not sure if this code could be valid for non-winners. I guess its a risk and depends on the cinema

Surely if this person was emailed the code directly from SFF it's ok though?

Vue Portsmouth has not had any film offers for 4/5 months, never seen a film in Port Solent on offer, Fareham tend to get minority type art house films from the times once in the blue moon, ditto harbour lights southampton. Never seen any free films on offer for Cineworld Southampton, however eastleigh has popped up a couple of times this year on virgin, the main one for sff is odeon southampton which is also popular for sky/times/telegraph screenings, most recently was Water for Elephants as I had tickets, although the train fare has now outweighed the cost of buying two tickets so I won't be going there again and now sit in hope that Portsmouth vue becomes popular with film providers apart from sky. Rarely received emails off sff unless its a film that has already had loads of free tickets or is not popular

I just tried to get tickets for Hop again and all locations seem to have tickets available now and the ticket confirmation doesn't contain any reference to Tesco. So looks like it's open to everyone now.

I emailed the developers of the SFF website with my problem and they recommended using two fingers together to scroll the box and that worked! I'm sure others are aware of that but I wasn't!

woo hoo just got my first screening tix on sky for pirates of the caribbean! lets hope i get there on time to make the screening before the hordes of people arrive!

So excited as used to go to loads of these a few years ago but havn't been in years!

I love this forum! Thanks to the OP who posted about this...do you know if there is any email alert on sky you can set up so they let you know when a new screening is available as couldn't see it on the site anywhere?
