I tend to get them well after the code has been posted on here, are you subscribed for immediate emails on the tickets thread? That's how I've always managed to get mine.

Yes, that's why I'm so surprised I never get any even if I respond straight away! Perhaps it's a Milton Keynes thing!!

I'm amazed to see so many people who have had tickets from seefilmfirst!
I have been having email offers from them for over a year now; I frequently am online when the mail comes through and can respond immediately - my local cinema venue is Milton Keynes which usualy features, yet every single time I try I get the 'sorry no more available' or whatever the rejection notice is.

just thought i'd share this. . .last night tried to use codes from hotdeals for 2 films i really wanted to see but both said "sorry etc etc" just logged on to the code thread found codes for same films same place and managed to get tickets for both films. guess who's a happy bunny !! maybe try ya luck again you never know julie x

lolarentt, if you haven't got Juno tickets yet, there are some available from seefiilmfirst for Milton Keynes with the vice10 code. Although I really wish people would check before they post the same code again!

Has anyone noticed that it's almost impossible NOT to see a film this Sunday? There is Arctic Tale, Underdog, Cloverfield and The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. It's a shame I am not into French arthouse movies, I would have liked to check out the Picturehouse Greenwich, it is said to have really comfy seats! (Am I shallow or what)

It's actually quite possible to not see a film on Sunday if you live in Dundee!
Though I have got a ticket for Juno on Tuesday!:T

Been there, done that, got the tickets! Definitely a first!

Thanks for that!!

With all those codes for Juno around it is really quite impossible not to get tickets, LOL. Honestly, this is the most heavily publicised free preview film I have seen in a while!

do you mean you react immediately to the emails seefilmfirst send you or the new codes posted on the thread?

I found when I was just a member of seefilmfirst waiting for them to send me emails then most of the time they had run out of tickets. But since I've discovered the film codes thread I tend to get most tickets I apply for and then about a week later seefilmfirst send me an email with a new code for a film I already have tickets for! so they must only send out emails after trying to give them away through other promotions etc.

Ditto, the same happens to me. I think they must react to the codes posted here. They run out pretty quickly after they are posted on here and HDUK, within minutes sometimes. But the advice from members in the past and it definately works!! is to keep trying the codes. Try again each morning till you get a ticket, you get fed up or it is probably too late. They seem to release some of them in batches each day, dunno why they do that.

I'm away in Dublin next week and there are no codes for any cinemas over there, unless someone out there knows better. I might manage to console myself with a glass of the black stuff. Have a great viewing week and weekend all of you.
