So, I've had Netflix for a year or so now (but didn't sign up for it thru an offer) and I recently signed up for Blockbuster as an offer. I cancelled my Netflix acct once I signed up for Blockbuster. I'm finding that I liked Netflix better, but I figure I'll keep blockbuster for a few months anyway, so it's a legitimate offer completion. I'm just wondering if after a certain amt of time goes by, can I sign up for netflix again thru an offer? Would that be considered offer fraud....or if enough time goes by could I sign up as a returning customer and still get offer credit?

I think best way to find out is shoot an email or call netflix to find out.
that is always a good question. it is interesting b/c netflix pays advertisers to send u things to get u back...i am unsure to be honest. u are not a unique lead but they may pay the site for your lead

yeah I mean especially since they are going to make money off of you signing up (for the lead) so I dont see how it would hurt netflix or the site.

I dont' think it would be allowed. I think part of the terms would be that you were never a member before. I do know that that is the case for blockbuster. (At least that is what 123stuffforfree posted before).
But I totally agree with you. I LOVE netflix and I HATE blockbuster. But everytime i say that to anybody they like blockbuster better.
It's hard to fight with people about it though.

Ya know...I've had trouble with stuff like that in the past...it's almost like these companies don't really want to acknowledge that they use affiliates. Either that or they use a marketing company that uses the affiliate programs at freebie sites...and just TRY to get in contact with a middleman like that...sheesh!

And it seems like netflix is just easier to use, and brighter. I hate the darkness of blockbusters site.
Netflix has a bigger selection of movies and I think ships faster. Although others think it's the same.
Everybody just comes back at me and says "well you can return movies to a blockbuster and get new ones"
Which is cool but I dont' really care. I'm too lazy to go to a blockbuster. I could go from school cuz there is one about 5 min away. But from home it's like 40 min. So it's worthless for me.
I just really dislike blockbuster. I'm glad somebody else does too.

Yeah, but I'll still give them my $$ for a few months b4 switching back...when it comes down to it, it's still just movies delivered to your door either way wink

I thought you were allowed to complete a trial once a year? I'm pretty sure their TOS says you are allowed 1 trial per year.

I would like to know the answer to this also. I was a member of Netflix a year or two ago, and would like to join again, but I'd like to get credit for it if I can.
I know Blockbuster does NOT let you. Haven't tried Netflix yet......

I joined Blockbuster thru an offer and didnot get credit.
Is anyone else having this problem?
