Movie2u.com - WARNING

:mad: :mad: :mad: This site sells DVD movies and whilst the prices may seem cheap, it is likely you will not get what you ordered. I placed an order 6 weeks ago and have been fobbed off, told they don't give refunds and accused of being offensive when I sent an email pointing out their failings!!
PLEASE DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM.:mad: :mad: :mad:

    In fairness, what do you expect when your buying illegal movies? If these people will rip film studio's off do you really think they'll think twice about ripping you off??
  • :confused: Trying to help by warning other readers and all I get is criticism!!! What's the saying "can't do right for doing wrong".
    By the way, this site gives no indication that what they are selling are illegal copies. As I did not receive my order I have no way of knowing.:confused:

    Does the fact that they're selling films that are still at the cinema not scream that they are illegal copies!!? And as for "warning" other readers, as far as I'm concerned, anyone that order from these sites is begging to have their money taken! Think of the people you're dealing with!
  • To all out there I still say "PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM Movie2u.com"

    Thanks for the advice irtsam.

    Unlike others we can't all be aware of what is and is not legit these days and if we're not into cinemas and so forth then how are we to know what is still in the cinamas and what isn't? Disregard those who are fortunate enough to know so much better, but like you this could easily have happened to me so I do appreciate your thread very much. I hope you do get your film.

    Thanks so much and try play.com for the future, if you haven't already.

    Ok, lets say for arguments sake that I go along with the theory that people don't know whats at the cinema. If you go to the first page of the website its got in big letters "New Releases" and they're all $9, or £4.50..........£4.50 for a new release film, does that not start the alarm bells ringing? Surely common sense tells you this is too good to be true!

    Fair points made.

    And shouldn't we just be gratefull that irtsam has warned us about this company in the hope that none of us fall foul of them?

    Thanks irtsam
