I'm basically using as a playing the dregs service as I am not too fussed what I play as long as I have not tried it before. Therefore, I am on the cheapest package and it has been alright for me. I would like The Raven as earlier as possible though, so I am preparing for disapointment.

I put six games on my list last night, one of which is green and there's been no movement yet. I barely read any of the instructions during sign up but I recall them saying I needed to have 5 in my "pipeline" before they'd send anything out during my trial.

They only send out stuff that's 'In Stock' so if it's green I guess that means it's a short wait.
I think. I'm not a fan of the system either. Stuff that's 'medium' can instantly come back in stock.

Just signed up to this, trying out the Priority service. I basically want infamous, let's see how long I have to wait...

PostRe: Boomerang by **Harry Bizzle** » Mon Mar 31, 2014 1:07 pm

I don't pay for the priority one and got it day one. I think day one is easier than getting it shortly after, though.

Will be interesting to see if they get me Ground Zeroes for the weekend. Will have been a good £60 saved in two weeks if they do. Great stuff.

If there's any justice in the world, then you won't.

I got Infamous on release day and it was the fourth game in a row I've had on release.
Great service so far for me on priority 2.

Good to hear they have been alright for people so far. I'll give them a try, no big loss if they're rubbish.

Bit disappointed as they haven't managed to despatch Ground Zeroes to me, yet.

On the upside, I really like their loyalty scheme. 999 points = 1 month free, and if you send a game back, they give you the amount of time it took them to send the next game back in points.

No movement for me on infamous, it's only been a few days to be fair and the site says 4-6 day wait.

Started my priority sub with 'em last night.

I picked Lego Marvel and Wolfenstein for PS4 as well as a bunch of yet to be released games.

Lego was a cinch to be dispatched as it was in stock whereas as Wolfenstein was reading 4-6 days. I wasn't expecting to get any of the others as I'd only just started renting and there must be a load of people ahead of me.

Checked the site just now and Wolfenstein and Diablo III Ultimate Evil have been dispatched today :lol:

But I wanted LEGO Marvel Superheroes!

Mine isn't going well at all. All of the Wii U games I want are all a Long wait. It's been many days since they sent something out to me.
If I don't get Metro in the next couple of weeks I am going to be livid.

PostRe: Boomerang by **Peter Crisp** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:04 pm

I know this won't help much but you get points when they don't send you anything that you use to get free months rentals.

PostRe: Boomerang by **Saint of Killers** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:05 pm

That's what you get for wanting games for such a in demand system. ;>

PostRe: Boomerang by **Peter Crisp** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:07 pm

Boomerang sent me Diablo 3 PS4 today

.

PostRe: Boomerang by **Buffalo** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:07 pm

Ha, I know right?!

I'm hoping to accrue enough points to get free months in silly season (October to Christmas).

PostRe: Boomerang by **Peter Crisp** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:12 pm

This may sound odd but what i do is completely empty my list and just have something like Diablo 3 which wasnt out when i sent my game back last tuesday. I have no idea if this forces them to send me a game for release day but so far its worked the 5 or 6 times I've tried.

I also have a feeling they will have more copies of ps4 games the Wii U.

PostRe: Boomerang by **Saint of Killers** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:14 pm

Do you ever try and hassle 'em about it? When Love Film didn't send a rental I wanted, or they were late in sending one out I often called them to complain (nothing nasty). Most times that usually resulted in getting a title I wanted sent out the next day.

edit: their number - 01604 654140 (9am-5pm, Monday to Friday)

PostRe: Boomerang by **Peter Crisp** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:17 pm

I sent Sacred 3 back yesterday which should get to them tomorrow and have Plants v Zombies ps4 on my list so it will be interesting to see if i can get that for release day as well.

PostRe: Boomerang by **Buffalo** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:26 pm

I've got them on Twitter and Facebook but not spoke to them yet, their social media customer service used to be appalling but it looks like they have a dedicated member of staff handling those sorts of enquiries now.
Like Pete said, I'm hoping that they'll see that I'm waiting, and therefore send out a new release. I mean I've got, like, 5 Wii and Wii U games on my list and they're not budging, I don't think they ever will.
