Netflix feedback discussion

I've just signed up using TCB and using my wii, so fast so good, all running ok and everything is streaming fine no buffering issues, it's a shame that love film does not let you steam to a wii otherwise we would have kept our account open with them, but for £17 free you can't complain.

Are you able to download movies to watch offline like you can with BBC iPlayer? I don't mean download to keep but download to watch in the next few days.

Thank you Martin for having a completely complex system of tqists and turns. The very first time I take your advise I get nothing. Well done.

In your email it states.

Use this free Netflix* 30-day trial link we've blagged for MoneySavers and you get an £8 M&S voucher.

So stupidly I click the link and register with Netflix - do I get a voucher NO!

Apparently I was supposed to ignore that link and click some link called quidco.

Well here is a concept, put that in the first link so I click that. OMG that makes sense doesnt it!
Waste of SPACE email!

I had Lovefilm for a short while but cancelled due to non arrival of a number of discs. I'm glad I did because Netflix is ten times better. For the same price (£5.99 a month) I get unlimited viewing of a good comprehensive library of movies which are being added to daily. The streaming quality is excellent with no blips at all. It is truly unlimited also, including many films in HD quality. If you have a TV connected via HDMI to your computer (not difficult to do) then this is definitely the best deal arround. I'm very pleased with it and have decided to continue my subscription after the free month. The movies also play extremely well on my Android phone making it very portable. No more messing around with discs for me, or paying as you go, which works out far more expensive.

I have to admit to being in a bit of a quandary with my Netflix subscription.

I'm currently a basic package Lovefilm subscriber (2 Blu-rays a month for £4.07), I really like the Netflix interface and the fact that the movies are streamed in HD. It also works really well on my iPhone over Wifi and 3G (thanks to 3's All You Can Eat data package).

However I don't think I can justify spending £5.99 a month for Netflix and £4.07 for Lovefilm's postal services. I could upgrade to Lovefilm's £7.99 a month service which includes streaming movies, but their interface isn't as good, they don't stream in HD and it won't work on my iPhone.

Free trial - yes, I love it, no problems.

Worth £5.99 a month? No. Not current enough films for me.

Did see it as a way of getting more content into this house above what we get on freesat, but there really isn't much on there we're interested in.

I agree. I signed up yesterday following the tip-off from the MSE weekly email. It works well but I was shocked at how few films there are, of any vintage (1960s - 2011), whereas LoveFilm (DVDs by post) did tend to have 90% of all DVDs I ever searched for. I suggest that Netflix should have built up a much larger database before launching in the UK.

Took up free trial
Will keep as a fair choice on there to watch and streaming is flawless good quality especially in HD
Just wish Netflix would update their content slightly
