if you do those do you have to actually buy the stuff? seems like it just says sign up and reciever credit. ?

just curious. a lot of my friends dont have credit cards or parents that trust the sites. we are youngins. i trust the sites... i did the cd dvd and free camera offers...

You're supposed to be obligated to make a certain amount of purchases at full/regular price within a 2 year time frame. However, I think that if you send back the initial items you ordered, they will refund your money. Although, I'm not positive if that's how it still works, or if I'm even allowed to tell you that here.

well i know that the BMG offer is a little confusing, it says credit within 2-3 weeks? does any one actually have a time for how long it really takes? or how you cancel if you wish to? ?

I would steer clear...BMG and similar companies are very skilled in the arts of fine print.

and they like to send you a bunch of cds and or dvds that you didn't request.

That too, is in the fine print. They send you the "directors selection" every month or so. You have to send it back if you don't want it, or they charge you for it. Most of these programs do this or some similar practice.

My advice
[ba0c9cd7081]DON'T DO IT[/ba0c9cd7081]

i did and they won't let you cancel ur membership unless you have fulfilled their 5 units of requirements within a 2 year time span. i have some money left over from student loan money so i just bought 3 to hurry with it.. maybe next month, ill buy 2 and get it over with.

and yes, the director selections is a hastle also.

even when i decline them online ahead of time, they still send them to me!

lol! uh-oh!

you can't do much about it now anymore..... /

btw, to fulfil a unit (to be credited a movie) in their rulebook is a movie $19.95 and more.

total plus shipping and tax and what not runs about 24.94....

i did BMG and i did read all the fine text, if your into buying CDs i would suggest it, unless you cannot wait 3 weeks to get credit, cause it DOES get that long, but it was timed perfectly for me D , i actually kept the service, and i just ordered 3 more cds yesterday from their site
