Thinking of going with Swapgame, I have been with DVD online rentals and Gametart years ago, who are you with and has anybody got a introduce a friend thing?
 
Was with Swapgame but 50% of the games I rented got lost in transit. Never had any trouble with Lovefilm and lost discs so I don't think it's Royal Mail. More like they are conning devils who want you to shell out £50 for losing a disc.

Am with Lovefilm now which is good. I mainly chose them because of their Blu-ray selection. Will come in handy with the PS3.
 
I used swapgame for around 6 months and never had a problem with them, a game was always sent out as soon as I sent one back.
 
Well it's not quite as dramatic as that.

If you obtain a certificate of posting when you send your game back, then they will charge you nothing and probably nothing on the first couple of discs anyway. But if your discs regularly get lost and you don't have the certificate, then they can charge you the RRP of the game automatically. It's what you agree to when you sign up with them.

I got fed up of traipsing 2 miles to the post office to get this certificate when there's a post box just 100 yards up the road.

I am with them and didn't know they have a bluray section, where? lol

Although they do suck for games.
 
Just search in the title/actor/director box for "Blu-ray" and you'll get about 37 discs listed. Not surprisingly, with the PS3 launch on Friday, a lot of the titles have the 'long-wait' icon next to them. I've ended up with some slushy romantic thing with Jennifer Aniston and Kevin Costner. Great! NOT.
 
I use boomerang rentals.

Been happy with them so far. They take about 3 days to send a new one once you return one. But that is not the end of the world for me.

I use Boomerang, can't fault their service.

This reminds me that I must get around to finishing God ofWar on the PS/2 :p
 
Signed up to boomerang, gone for the Unlimited One package and I can get someone a free months rental, so rp2000 you suggested Boomerang first so contact me for the details you need.
 
I signed up with swapgame on Saturday. Got an email saying two games had been dispatched on the Monday, they arrived on Tuesday. I'm pleased so far.
