    This is a good offer but take care... I did it for a £10 Argos voucher through Quidco. The voucher arrived after about 3 weeks. When it comes to cancelling it is not as simple. Although the website shows you a link to cancelling the account you actually have to call a number - which goes through to a call centre in India, then they try to convince you to continue. Although I managed to cancel I did not leave enough days and the first credit card payment had already been called for and could not be recalled. So my free trial ended up costing me :( but I did get a free voucher and a bit of cashback!

    My advice is to do it but cancel it about 5 days before the end of the trial.

    I only ever watched via download - do you think I will qualify for the voucher? Didn't see the point in waiting for discs when I can watch via broadband

    I registered just under 2 weeks ago and received amazon voucher code after a 9 days. Today I received an email from lovefilm terminating my account immediately and banning my address from ever renting from lovefilm again. I have had trials previously so can only assume this is why as they didn't give any reason and according to their t&c's they don't need to give any reason.

    No. My LoveFilm email address is different to my Amazon address

    Anyone out there thinking about doing this, I'd recommend them.

    I recieved the letter for this offer which said that the voucher would arrive after the first disc was sent to the house. This wasn't the case but the voucher did eventually arrive the day after I emailed them about it (around 14 days into my trial)

    The service itself is straight forward and easy to navigate. I probably would have stayed on if they had a cheaper package offering more game rentals. I cancelled my trial with no problems (after midnight you can access the cancel page via the website, otherwise you have to phone up during all other times)

    So, go for it if you fancy a month of free, simple rentals and a decent voucher!

    I received this offer through the post, and received my first DVD, along with the Amazon voucher last week. Just bought £20 of Christmas gifts for free, so I am a very happy bunny! Have told my partner about this and can see her doing the same for presents for me! Hahahaha! (two separate households)

    ...and in a year or so's time, cancel the account & start a new one with your partners name & their card & their email address. That way the household gets another freebie. :)
