We signed up last week. £18 per month for unlimited films and games.
The Lady signed the online application on Monday night, by Tuesday evening our stuff arrived.

And I hear it's better than Blockbusters' own online deal.

Anyone here a member?

Its a good offer, but im a nerd, I download DVDs off piratebay.org and stream them through my XBox onto my TV, better than the cinema, as you can pause and go for a pee or a munch.

I've been considering using it for games. I buy them, play through them once then never touch them again, so renting as many as I like seems cheaper

Oh cry baby bumpkin, take another kleenex.

I used to use it Gza but I found the novelty wore off pretty quickly mate.

You'll get cheesed off with them sending you're 14th and 15th choices all the time, plus you'll notice that after the first 2 or 3 months you'll be thinking about changing to one of the lesser packages. After a while, you just stop watching the films religiously and they sit on the side waiting to be opened for 4 or 5 days longer.

That said though, it's an ace facility and helps you save money.

We've had it for a while. Think we pay a tenner for unlimited dvds, two discs at a time. We probably only watch 2 or 3 dvds a month tho so we should change the tariff I think! Having kids interferes a bit with the telly watching lol

TBH we've considered cancelling it becasue we often get films that we cant remember ordering - stuff we've never heard of - and on a coupe of occasions they've sent disc 2 of something before disc 1 which is rather stupid (we sometimes order series of stuff) so wouldn't really recommend it. Although it does beat going down to blockbusters and hoping they have what we want in!

We have been using this for about 18mths if not longer, cant fault it, and find the service fast, never had any probs, make sure you update your list though or they will send randoms. ;)

Great thing is you dont have to stick to one console for gaming, we use it for both the xbox & the PS3.

Just ordered the unlimited package.

Whole family can use it and the streaming online looks class.

Better use of £20 than the lottery DD which I just cancelled.

Evil Dead 3 here I come, baby.

I think so...they have advertisements for buying DVDs all over the place.

Can you play the films over 360/PS3 etc? Netflix has that which is kind of cool.

We have the 3 film at a time which is a bit much. I might change it to the 2 at a time as we don't end up watching every film we get.

Yes mate.

You can order games too, as part of the package.

X-Box is AWOL atm, but it will be cracking once we get it back.

Games included is a nice touch. I have to have Netlix and Gamefly if I want that. I had gamefly and used to order games just for the sake of it so I ended up getting rid of it.
