Advantages: No late fees or postage to pay, emails you to let you know which film you will get through the post

Disadvantages: Cant choose the actual film you want it'll be one from rental queue, not yet received offer points

Decided to try this out after gettin an email back in March offering me 1000 clubcard points to join for three months. As I usually hire 1 film a month from instore and the price for 2 dvds in a month actually worked out cheaper with these guys thought I may as well give it a try!

The positives are that as I said its fairly cheap, you dont pay late fees - which is good after once keeping a disc in my car for nearly a month thinking I had posted it!! You get an email usually the day before your disc arrives letting you know what film is coming and you dont have to pay to post it back.

It tells you with a little egg timer if a dvd you have in your rental queue is likely to be either a short or long wait. There are different monthly memberships value and unlimited ranging from 2 a month with 1 disc at home at a time for £4.50 to unlimited rentals with 3 either games or dvds at home at once for £18.

The negatives are that you cant choose the film you want to be delivered, although you can set the films at three different levels; low, medium and high priority this does not always mean you will get the films at high before the medium ones. As this is the only online rental store I have used I dont know if that is something that is true of others, but worth a mention either way.

The other negaitve is one I just noticed that they did not actually add on the 1000 clubcard points I was told I would get for joining I called to chase this up and was told I never gave my clubcard number to begin with which was wrong as the main reason I did this was the points offer! They said it will take upto another 2 months for points to get on card, so I will update this review when I get them!

Summary: I get 2 discs a month and it works out cheaper than hiring one film from the shop
