I just booked my first ticket with seefilmfirst. I'm off to see bucket list.

How does this work??

I printed out the voucher but all it is is my name next to a picture of the film poster and then printed "Admit 2".

Surely this can't be it? Anyone can just print out tickets like that.

Is my name sent to the cinema so they know I am coming aswell?

Hi, Yes that really is it and you just hand over the printed ticket (or show them you phone with a text on it if you chose to receive your ticket by text).
I think I might have seen them with lists of names to check against but not recently, I hand over the piece of paper as quick as you would a normal ticket!

edit: I see other people replied quicker! yes they had a couple of burly security guards outside the showing for Lions For Lambs taking mobile phones off people whether they had recording capabilities or not! and they did warn by email beforehand. They give you a cloakroom ticket and put the phone in a clear plastic bag and you collect it on your way out.

Honestly, it is as easy as that. Just remember, don't go to where they sell the tickets, but go straight to where the entrance to the screens it, there will be someone telling you what screen it will be in and when you can go in (depending on how early you are you will have to wait until the cinema is ready for the screening). They just take the printouts off you, no idea whether they actually check them against names. I never had to show ID yet nor surrender my mobile phone. Oh and welcome to the world of free preview aficionados. You will soon get addicted!

Quick question. This is the first time I have free tickets via seefilmsfirst. Do I show them my text tickets at the box office (i.e. where you buy your tickets) or do I walk to where they usually collect tickets before you go to your screen and they point you towards where your screen is.

EDIT- Ignore this post. Just saw the post above. Ha ha.

is there any more codes for Definitely, Maybe ????

As I have said about 5 times this week already- any codes are here- you need to look through them- if they aren't here we haven't got them!
Also any chat/discussion is not on this tthread- as it says at the top- NO CHAT
Sorry to everyone who, like me, has logged on yet again looking for cinema codes. I'll delete this later

I've not been lucky enough to go to an Impulse screening yet, but on two occasions we were given beer and wine and some lovely nibbles before the screening.
