Page 1 of Blockbuster DVD rental by post, free one month trial!

Worth trying out if you`re looking for a free trial, and it`s for one whole month! :D

Yup, using this already. They are very good for sending out in the order that you specify. I guess this is due to the number of copies they have of the new titles. Its a good package for £13.99 a month for 3 discs at a time instead of only 2 disc from MovieTrak who I was before. Best thing is they get the titles straight away when they are released unlike some DVD rental services. Recommended (especially the free month)

Good to know about the rental queue. I`ve only tried a few places so far and DVDs365 and Lovefilm use the same strict queue which is handy if you want to see one title ahead of another but don`t want random films turning up!

Up till now I`ve use the pay per disc method with them and they are very good. So far they always have arrived nextday. When I had a faulty disc, a credit for my next rent was issued with apologies. I throughly recommend them. You can have 3 or 5 out at any one time. To have five out at a time its around £20 a month.

Nice find.

I`m currently with ChoicesERental who are pretty good, but their collection isn`t as big as Blockbuster...they`re also costing me £20 a month for 3 at a time, which isn`t bad considering I`m getting about 12 DVDs a month (roughly) from them.

However, thinking now about switching to Blockbuster - for £13.99 a month it`s obviously a better deal.

I`m assuming you can select from Blockbuster`s whole back catalogue?

Cheers

I`ve got a week to go on this and it`s been the best of the companies I`ve tried. Always get top choices but the big bonus is that 2 disc sets (except films I think) come as one selection. eg, Queen at Wembley, Coldplay, Transatlantic.

A massive selection with many obscure titles as well as the blockbuster movies and quick turnaround too.

I tried to set up Blockbuster`s trial offer but it says my area is not included in their package deals. This is very strange because I live in Northern Ireland which is part of the UK (no hijacking the thread with political rants, please, folks!) and Blockbuster don`t use couriers for their online rentals, just normal first-class Royal Mail post. I have emailed them for an explanation and will post any reply here.

I do not recommend them - sorry posted twice

I do not recommend them - I have started a free trial and the priority list is not stuck to although not quite random either and, they have just introduced a new clause due to low stock that first 4 weeks is reserved for paying customers - tried choiceserental - much better! - will try blockbusters next as seem like cheaper version of choiceserental and might stick with them if delivery turnaround is good!
