Boomernag rentals Priority package question

movingtables · 12 May 2010 at 21:44

Before I sign up:

Basicaly can i pop 1 game in my que and expect a fast turnaround?

the game would be Alan wake.
for £15.99 a month i would like to think so

No,

i joined them and was only with them for about two months as i found they were to slow in sending out games even after i returned the last game i rented from them, one time it almost took them two weeks to send out a game on my list.

I'm now using swapgame for my rentals and they sent me a new game two days after i return a rented one from them, they also seem well priced on there games if you want to buy them for keeps.

I'm on the cheapest £3.49 one game per month, average version and I can send the game back on a Monday and then see a new one probably by Thursday

No, even on the priority package, I had to write to complain after five working days before they sent a disc out and then it was my number 3 choice.

I found them to be okay, I got Yakuza on day of release and Bioshock 2 arrived pretty snappy not long after release. It's probably just pot luck, I've notched down to the £8 package now, as there's not much coming out that I desperately want to play, but I'd certainly recommend the service to others.

With lovefilm I've only ever had a 1 day wait. Post Monday, Recieve wednesday. It's never failed and i've been using them over a year now.

Found Boomerang to be pretty poor for me. Took over a week to get a game delivered to me and the turnaround for that game was 4 days+. This is on the £9.99 Unlimited package.

Gonna cancel when the months up.

Lovefilm are a lot better for turnaround, but they tend to ignore my priority choices for games. They send out a random game from the list rather than the one i set to "High" priority.

Thats what I have been thinking of doing. (Do you mean Boomerang or Lovefilm?)

When Alan Wake goes on the list, ill take everything else off as thats really the only thing I want to try. And since Red Dead Redemption is coming out next week, I'll be focusing on that only.
