blockbuster high street dvd rental price increase

thefishdude

well i ocasionaly rent dvds from blockbuster dvd rental but in the high street as i live vry close to astore and got fed up with dvds getting lost in post( or stolen by royalmail but thats another vent).

anyway i went in store today and there pricing policy has changed a couple of weeks ago you could rent the latest dvds at 2 for £6
3 for £8
or 4 for £10

now there is no loner deals like this and dvds are individualy priced soo basically if you want 4 of the latest release they are £3.50 each thats £14 for 4 a 40% price increase since the change.

i mentioned this and was told some dvds have come down in price and yet i noticed 2 dvds that were in the 99p section now being classed as new release for £2 including inception thats been out ages.

grrrrrrrrr vent over i want to complain trying to find someone to email or contact online about a complaint

Blockbuster are going through their death throes, now.

They're not getting the custom so they have to put their prices up which p*sses people off so they get even less custom. And so on.

One I used to pass is now a Tesco metro.

They're a business, they can charge what they want. Your complaint will go in the bin.

If you don't like it, find somewhere else.

Complain about what? That they charge higher prices than you want to pay? If that's the case you should do what every consumer should do in that situation; don't use them.

They are loosing custom to places like netflix etc.

The prices haven't changed, just the special offer has finished..

Get yourself one of those golden tickets they do. You pay a tenner then you get 6 rental vouchers you have 60 days to use up.

the best offer they had was the £5 for 5 dvd for 5 nights. i also used to do the t mobile offer of £5 for 2 dvd plus snacks but they dropped that with no warning

How dare a business chnage its pricing strategy, i mean how very dare they.

Why complain about it ? what do you want to achieve by complaining ?
