You really dont have to go making a huge deal out of the bunny poker thing. I think it was apropriate, maybe he shouldve done the *NWS*bunnypoker.com*NWS* but thats all

Hmm. Yeah, so anyway... Majesky, Big Tymer and Camaro_Speedemon, back to you guys and my earlier post. How long have you guys had the service because I've been thinking of getting it myself.

Uhh ohh I've had the service for about 3 months now and its great. I turn my DVD in and usually within a day its there and I get it back the following day so a total of 3 days wait.

Class Action Settlement Registration Begins

The settlement registration process for Chavez v. Netflix, the class action lawsuit over claims of Netflix's false advertising, has begun.

If you were a paying Netflix customer before 1/15/05, you are part of the lawsuit class. You may visit www.NetflixSettlement.com to verify your eligibility and contact information. To receive a benefit from the settlement, you must complete the Claim Form Process at www.NetflixSettlement.com.

Unfortunately, the benefits of the Netflix settlement are ridiculously meager.

If you are a current Netflix subscriber, you will receive a free one-month plan upgrade. For example, three-out members will be upgraded to four-out plans for the month. Note that you must take the initiative to downgrade your plan at the end of the month. If you do not downgrade your plan promptly, you will be billed automatically for the upgraded plan at the beginning of the next billing period.

If you are not a current Netflix subscriber, you will receive a free month of Netflix service. (This will give Netflix one last time to take advantage of you.) As a former subscriber, you will have the option of a one-, two-, or three-out plan. Common sense suggests that most will choose three-out plans; however, take note that you must cancel your membership at the end of your free month. If you do not cancel promptly, you will be billed automatically for an additional month.

Click here to find more detailed information about the settlement and your various options.


Note: If you are currently suing Netflix or wish to sue Netflix in the future, you may not want to participate in this settlement. Consult with you attorney about your options.

Update: For opt-out information, got to www.netflixsettlementsucks.com.

That really sucks. I've had netflix for about a year, and my service has been fantastic. 0 wrong, scratched, or broken dvd's. Always on time. I don't see why you should be having such crappy service, something is definitely wrong there.

i've had it for about 6 months now and haven't experienced any problems. there is a netflix station here in orlando so i have a very quick turn around on my dvd's.

Do you both rent movies often? I wonder if maybe you haven't hit their threshold yet. In other words, maybe if you rented more often your service would go in the sh*tter too like the others?
