Uk game rental.

[the_b1ues]

I no there are a few website were American players hire there games from does anyone know any good UK based ones??

[DeadFrazer]

I use Lovefilm to rent all my games, and the only game I have bought since I signed up has been GTA4.

They have a good choice, and are really quick to post out games.

I have been using www.boomerangrentals.co.uk for about 10 months now and they have been very good, Lots of games and quick to send them out

[Bax x360a]

I'm going to start using Lovefilm, mainly because they seem to be the only online rental which includes Blu Rays. Renting a 360, PS3 and Blu Ray disc all at the same time sounds ideal.

I use Lovefilm also, they're really good, I'd definately recommend them.

They post out games very fast, they have a good selection of titles and you're usually sent out your highest priority stuff first. At least that's what I've found anyway.

Like I said, I'd recommend them.

Yeh was thinking about them to its £10.99 a month isnt it for 1 rental at a time?

[EviL Bettee]

Yeah, that's right. You pick a list of games you want, prioritise it, then they send them out to you in order of priority. You can keep the games for as long as you want ( I had Skate for weeks trying to finish it! ) then when you send one back, they send you out another from your list.

You can have deals where you have more than one at a time, I can't really see the point though!

yep lovefilm is very good, only one i have used so dont know about the others but lovefilm seem very good service, also loads of free trials around pick one up and give them a try :)

[the_b1ues]

yeh i was going to do that but. You have to put your credit card details in and i didnt wont to do that incase they forced me to pay after lol

[AidanK93]

Like everyone else has said go with LOVEFiLM. They may not actually provide the best service around but they make up for it in free trials. On the site it lets you get a 2 week free trial. After 2 weeks you can cancel your account and then re-activate it with a 3 month trial. If you just search for LOVEFiLM 3 month trials then I'm sure you'll ind a valid code.

[the_b1ues]

ok cool ill look into that. But if i forget to cancell do i get charged?

[RFT 123]

I think that you would get an e-mail, saying your account has expired, and you have to either cancel, or pay for a month.

[keene oh]

if you only want games... try gameflirt.

They have been faultless for me for about a year now.

Lovefilm gave me loads of problems as they would allow you to add a long list of games to rent but they had limited availability.

Admittedly, they had a name change / website redesign in the middle of my membership which may have caused some of the problems. But i ditched them anyway.

If you are looking for films etc at the same time you should be ok with Lovefilm as their selection of films was fantastic.

Also... If you are going to try Lovefilm, go through greasypalm or quidco first... these are cashback sites and have a good offer on at the moment.

I can't remember which or how much but one of them was offering (i think) 7.50 cash back just to sign up to the free trial on loveiflm.

The other was offering £10 to sign up to blockbuster's free trial.


Slightly off topic, but i recommend using quidco for any games purchasing too... you can link through to game.co.uk and get an additional discount.

My wife and I have been using these sites for a while and built up £150.00. In about a year.

Doesn't sound much, but when you consider it's money for nothing.....
not too shabby.

I am currently with Boomerang rentals see Here (http://www.boomerangrentals.co.uk/) They are good and very quick. I sent a game back and the day after that they got it and sent out my next one on my list and I got it the day after that. I pay about £10 a month. I can only have 1 game out at a time but that does me fine and I can have as many games I want a month as I want. So yeah they are good. Plus you get a free 3 week trial.

That not bad atall have to look into that

[Xterm1n8or]

Been using Boomerang for 20 months now, very good sevice indeed, I can't see how anywhere else could be better, but I haven't tried anywhere else.

[JC]

I use Lovefilm, very quick and efficient service and you normally get your high priority titles.

And they have every game for the 360...Boomerang and others don't, which is why I joined Lovefilm. :)

[the_b1ues]

what are greasypalm like there not some kind of con are they?

[gamer1810]

Hi all,

Just saw this thread, and thought I would add my 2p worth..

I have been using Boomerang for about 8 months and have found their service excellent. Thier subscriptions are cheaper that Lovefilm.

OK so they are smaller and dont do DVD's, but they have all 360 games and I have always had a good service.

Thier customer support are friendly and helpful, which you cant say about Lovefilm!
