Sky Store "free gift us us" re buy and keep movie free

UnsureAboutthis

Hi
I got a text a couple of days ago stating the above because there was a problem with the
sky q box on their side
Then , 2 days ago I got an email stating the above and use/apply for gift by the end of this month
I've just had a quick look on my tv and followed the instructions but I can't see the
"free gidt."

Can you help, thanks.

Mine was just on the homepage but you aren't missing much, it's pick one from about 30 old movies.

Thanks for the extra info - I won't waste my time.

Cheers.

Took a while to find ours. I think we had to scroll along the ‘recommended’ tiles before we found it! Must admit we were disappointed with the selection but there were a few which were ok.

I've not had a look since my previous post but what is the point if they are going to
make it hard for you to find it and then old movies. I guess they may be hoping that you like the other rentals/buy a movie etc and give them more business  - a bit like the supermarkets moving stuff around so you end up buying something else as well.

It is quite literally on the first page when you enter the Store, on the featured tab, third tile along. "Your Sky store gift  on us"

Although, yes, the choice is poor really.

Strangely it's still showing as a free purchase for us despite already using it, I won't click on it though as I couldn't take having to call them up to get a refund if it actually charged me.

They wont, it has the price crossed out and says "free" when you click through, its fine.

Sorry re dealy  - on 31 May I looked again as as per your post and watched a moive that I'd not seen before with 
Liam Neelson (on eof my fav actors) as starting role - can't recal the title but it was about a bomb in his car.

I'm talking about a 2nd free film, not the original one. I'll have a look again when I can wrestle the remote off the wife later.
