those postal dvd services - any recommendations?

[choosyfloosy]

dunno, are they all the same? i want one that might allow me to see old stuff that i never got around to, or which isn't on bbc2 on sunday afternoons again, like The Lady Vanishes

We have just started to use Amazon..

[turns to cazzybabs, looks interested]

and how do you find it?

[holds chin thoughtfully]

we use tesco dvd rental which is owned by lovefilm. haven't had any problems and happy with the price

We also have just started to use Amazon and no probs so far. go to www.amazon.co.uk
They e-mail you when they have despatched a dvd and then e-mail you again when they receive the one you have returned. We are on the "cheap" option.

WE're using the free trial with Tesco at the moment, so far so good, maybe it will stop when we have to pay though

go to quidco/freefivers etc (cashback sites) and try a few "free" trials which you actually get paid for. Lovefilm "power" a lot like this one dvd.easycinema.com/visitor/home.html which charges per dvd, rather than per month, so best deal if you are only looking them once in a while, rather than a continuos stream.

(lovefilm power tescos one as well)

Well basically we seacrched on line for recommendations....we found some against love actually but no-one seemed to say anythign bad about amazon. They are all about the same price wise...

We use Love film and think it's mostly very good. We pay about £15 month for 3 DVDs at a time. Quick turn around when you send them back and efficient when there are probs. Have tried blockbuster but they were crap!

We have used Amazon for a while. We were on the 3 dvds a month deal but found we weren't using them up so have downgraded to 2 now. Never seem to have any trouble getting the dvds we want even if they are new releases. But have had a couple of damaged ones which is v annoying as it usually gets stuck at the most exciting part of the movie. Currently working our way through Bleak House, very good.

we use easycinema whic has been great.
costs £1.99 per dvd-keep as long as you like and just credit your account for £8 upfront!

very good service from amazon on the 2 a month deal -very cheap i think about £4 - humungous catalogue

ooh we have just joined the amazon one.

Looking forward to out first delivery soon.

Beats going to blockbuster and paying a fortune imo.

We use Lovefilm.com, it's very good and it has a really quick turn around.
