Thanks. I got a little worried that they might have changed things and offered the B5G 50% only now.

actually the B1 get 50% off is better than B1G1 code as you only have to buy 1 at regular price and rest are all 50 percent off, while other code is buy one regular price + free, then another regular price + free, a even better code is buy 1 get rest 60 percent off.

Anyone know when the club is going to get Lost Season 3? I'm waiting to use it as a fulfillment, but they seem to be extremely slow getting it added.

That assumes you're purchasing a large quantity at once, and if that's the case you're probably better off canceling and re-enrolling. If you just want a couple titles the B1G1 is obviously much better.

Also, the B1G1 isn't unlimited unless things have changed since I became a VIP.

When have they had B1 get 60% off? I've been vip for a couple of years and have never seen it.


And Lost S3 may not be included for a couple of months as they've only recently added the TV shows that were released in September.

I signed up on Jan. 18 using 5 for $1.00 code to get the following:

Pirates 3
Cinderella 2
Cinderella 3
Aladdin
Aladdin 2

I haven't got my movies yet and I'm wondering why. To make matters worst three of the movies are supposed have gone into the vault on the Jan. 31. Will I still get them?

I wouldnt panic yet. I placed an order on the 22nd and I havent gotten my mine yet, either. They need to work on their speed.

Also, I just received Cars and Ratatouille that I didnt order. This was mentioned a couple pages ago. How did that work out for people?

I believe it takes them 2-4 weeks for initial shipment. Maybe a member can confirm that for us.

It's *only* been 2 weeks as of today! Give it another week or two before you start to worry. Check your CC online to see if/when the enrollment charge posted (*not* a temp charge) and give it a week or two after that date as they will not charge your CC until shipment occurs. Selections usually come USPS media mail which can easily take a couple of weeks to deliver following shipment. If you haven't seen the order 30 (or more) days following the actual charge on your CC then you might want to give CS a call to check things out. However, don't even bother before then as they will not reship an order until it's been at least 30 days following initial shipment.

You should get the titles that went into the vault as you ordered them prior to the cutoff date.

This also assumes you've been accepted. If you have you should have received a "Welcome to the club" email with login instructions. That email usually arrives the same time the enrollment order is being processed for shippment.

How is the Disney Movie club on canceling and re-enrolling? I could be wrong, but I heard that it was harder to do than Columbia House. You might not get accepted again into the club so quickly.

Anyhow, there isn't enough titles that I want for me bother with the whole cancel and re-enroll thing. I ended just buying a few titles I wanted using the B1G 50% off. In the end, it's only a few bucks more per DVD than the initial enrollment costs.

I quit about 6 weeks ago, and at the end of the phone conversation, the woman told me they'd be glad to have me back at any time, and urged me to re-apply. I had never purchased anything beyond my fulfillment titles.

A week later, I reapplied, was accepted, and got my new batch of enrollments.

Stricter in the sense you're only allowed 3 copies of the same title per address instead of 5 and only one account open per address at any time.

It should have been Pixar Shorts not Cars, but anyways if you didn't get a note in the mail from them with a return addressed label envelope to send it back, just call them and they will credit your account immediately.

Well, I just got me enrollment package and one of the titles is wrong. They have a picture of Tales from Avonlea the Complete First Season on the website, however, the title is actually Tales from Avonlea: Beginnings, which is a 2 disc best of type set, not the 3 disc first season. I notice now that if you click on the title, it switches to the correct image.

Hopefully it won't be too much of a pain to swap that for either the correct or an alternate title.

When did you fulfill your account? I fulfilled my account near the beginning of January, and I got a welcome to VIP letter with the B1G 50% off additional titles code through snail mail about a week ago.

I still have yet to receive my B1G1 code, but someone on the forums mentioned that it should come soon after the welcome letter so I'm still waiting for that.

FYI - I never got mine, it's been at least 3 months since I became a VIP.

I signed up on 1/29 and my movies were shipped today (2/6). Hope that helps.

Did you get the B1G additional at 50% off at least? Now I'm wondering if they got rid of the B!g! and replaced it w/ the 50% thing.
