LoveFilm | 14 day unlimited free DVD rental. The range of DVDs is very good but turnaround time is rumoured to sometime be slow and they send 2 DVDs in one envelope on occasions, which means you can't always send back a DVD even though you have watched it as you need the envelope for the other one. During the free DVD rental period this can be a pain, so watch out for it. Request extra envelopes immediately to make sure this doesn't happen. After the trial | ||||

| Best advice
- Use them all, they're all offering a free trial so why not use them to make up you mind. - Make sure you keep an eye on the time limit of a trial, set reminders in your phone and make sure you send back all DVDs in plenty of time and cancel online. - Some DVDs may come in the same envelope, make sure you send them back the same way so you don't end up a DVD you can't send back. Alternatively, request more envelopes from the rental company. - If you decide to carry on, make sure your rental queue is filled to between 15 and 20. Some of the top titles may not be in stock, or the more leftfield movies, so they may not be sent out until they arrive. - Make sure you keep an eye on the priority of you films, put the films you want most to the top. - Lastly, enjoy, this is the best way to get seriously into films, arrive home everyday to find something new and in a student house, essential. have fun and remember the free trials! |
