    Oh okay we'll leave it there then lol

    He clever hun - if you are a computer geek you might have a chance of seeing this info - if not, then dont even bother - us mere mortals would not have a clue lol

    Personally I dont want him to tell the world how he does it - especially if you can book them early too - Sky tickets hard enough to get hold of as it is!

    He is not clever, he is a cheat and when Sky read this they will put a stop to it and close his account.

    I'm not really sure what's cheating about posting which films are going to be showing soon on Sky Rewards, he can't book them, same as anyone else?

    Dont know if he can book early either - but if not why does Sky bother hiding this information from general view?

    I would imagine it is because they deal with a marketing company in advance of their screenings and if it was posted on the general website people would be phoning and emailing 10 fold trying to find out when the free movies will be released. Probably so far in advance too that screening dates and venues could even change, it would cause havoc lol

    I sometimes wonder whether Sky would let you into a free movie if there were seats left over and you waited till the movie started. You could take your sky movie details and photo I.D. with you as proof, sometimes there seems to be such a waste of seats from no shows it's annoying when you see on here that people missed out?

    I agree - once could only get one ticket instead of the usual two - my mum would have loved to come and I ended up going on my own - really disappointed to find that the cinema had at least 40 seats going spare when the screening started :(

    I have always been so lucky to get tickets quickly and not missed out on films due to returns etc. I work on a desktop computer during the day and have one at home so i think it's a big advantage on those who have to wait until break time or after work.

    When fully booked there is a link stating that if you click they will e-mail you when or if more tickets become available. I always click but have not once had anything come of it - you mention returns, so I thought I would ask if you were notified first or simply kept checking in every now and then?
