If you are a customer of Netflix, sooner or later you will get to the point where you wish you were using Blockbuster or better, Peerflix, because there are things in the way they do business that may get to your nerves.
Some people report that shipments get delayed for customers who watch their videos and send them in promptly. By the way, they even state this in their own terms of service:
“In determining priority for shipping and inventory allocation, we give priority to those members who receive the fewest DVDs through our service.”
Some people have a real issue with scratched discs. Some DVD players play a scratched disk another wont, but some are really picky about the disc being clean. All too often a child or lazy movie watcher could spill their favorite entertainment-time food or beverage only to ruin your personal movie watching session (unless you have the equipment to clean optical discs).
If you go to the homepage for Netflix, they’ll let you sign up for a free two week trial.
Its a great way to see what this service is about and how it works. As a consumer, you’d be better trying out some of the other online video rental services. In fact, you’d be surprised how many there really are.
Greetings visitors and Netflix fans and foes!
I’ve been a customer of Netflix for a while now and let me tell you, if you like renting videos Netflix will blow any video store out of the water.
Personally, my best recommendation is to make sure you stay on top of sending in the videos after you’ve done watching them. It can be easy to fall out of the habit and the next thing you know, you’re sitting on the same set of videos you had last month. This is not advised because your account is still active and your credit card is being charged. But you aren’t getting any fresh movies.
That is all for now, please leave a comment with your own experiences with Netflix.
