Problem with Tesco Rental

chrisxuk · 9 May 2009 at 16:11

I've had a 90 day trial with Lovefilm that ran out a few weeks ago. Tried signing up to Tesco Rental today and said i can't have another trial as i've already signed up before.

Anyone else had more than one trial or know what i can do?

Change a letter here and there in your address and name, it's okay to misspell a few things as long as the postman still understands.

My sis is on her third free trial from Tesco DVD rental using this method.

hmm i'll try again then

Wish me luck

Just pay for it you cheap skate....

I'm not a cheap skate. I just don't have a job being 16

I managed to get 3 free trials out of them but they cancelled my last one about a month in.

Why is being 16 relevant? You can get loads of part time jobs at 16. It was the best thing I did, even MORE disposable income back then...

True, it would help if there was anywhere around where I live that had jobs available

Fair enough!

I have tried to get a job. Walked down the main street with all the shops in handing a CV in everywhere. But no luck

love film run loads of the rental services for other companies eg. tesco, the 'south american river' etc which is why you "can't" register for another trial.

Blockbuster also do a free stint.

Otherwise just change the first line of your address form you house number/name to varients of your own name (worked from me), Mr x, ZZ X , MR Z X etc.

Why is getting a job necessary when you can get this stuff for free?

I wasn't talking in terms of THIS per se, moreso that being 16 is irrelevant to not having a job. There is a lot more you cannot get free and having plenty of spare cash opens up those opportunities.

Tesco own LoveFilm

Tesco is only £1 cheaper, don't know why people go with Lovefilm.

I've been with Tesco Rentals for 6 months and I'm really happy with the service, I got the better stuff once I started paying. Just remember to set only a few to High Priority.

When i had my lovefilm trial i was really impressed by how fast it all was. Sent something back and i'd have a new disk in 2 days everytime as well!

Hopefully Tesco will be just as good
