Netflix - Rant thread #732,899

[720pDude]

After 10 years of loyalty to this company they, like most companys/bosses changed for the worse.

1. It started with this holding back movies on release day nonsense...okay, so Redbox did the same thing.

2. It escalated when they told me they were raising my blu ray rental fees cuz of people who stream at home to their TVs...guess what? pass the charge onto them, cuz I dont care about streaming at home on my TV.

3. Longer waits for new releases in my Queue.

4. Last week it took them 2 days to ship me movies even though I had open spaces AND it stated the flicks were available NOW.

5. I have over 15 movies under SAVED with unknown release dates. Some of them have been like this for YEARS but yet they are available to PURCHASE!

6. Finally, and I revert to #1... I noticed yesterday Redbox had Knight and Day, Salt and the new Resident Evil available while Netflix just released Knight & Day and Salt....AND Resident Evil STILL isnt beling released by Netflix til the 25th!..but yet, thanks to Rebox,it sits in my hand NOW...and quite frankly I am tired of seeing long wait in my Q and then spending money at RB cuz its available NOW

So..even though Im too jaded with all these rental models, and wont sing the praises of Redbox, they are giving me what I want..semi-immediate gratification over Netflix..and until another model comes along and can better RB I will jump their ship - I no longer believe in customer loyalty cuz its become a ONE WAY STREET. SUCK IT NETFLIX


I have 4 Redboxes and 2 BB boxes within 2 miles of me so I get what I want 98% of the time
