Blockbuster Inc. Complaint - Blockbuster Express Kiosk rental stinks. Sure ain't Redbox!! - Blockbuster Express Kiosk

Complaint
Review by JasonCampbell on 2010-08-25
Will only allow you to rent 3 movies at a time. Machines are very slow. Online account information is useless. You can reserve movies, however; that is about all that you can do. There are no links for purchase or rental history.
Blockbuster Express custoemr service is terrible. If there is a problem with your card being overcharged, you can pretty much forget getting your money back no matter what the amount is. The customer service supervisor there pretty much told me that they would rather lose all future business rentals from us, then refund the $2.16 we were double charged for a rental.
With a Redbox on every corner, do we really need more examples of Blockbuster's terrible customer service spread throughout our cities?

Regards,
J

Good point OP. However I have found problems with Redbox: You can only rent 5 movies at a time. I sometimes get charged for movies that did not get spit out of the box and when returning movies I can sometimes try 4 or 5 movie kiosks before I can find one that is not full. However, customer service will sometimes play fair.

I've never had any problems with Blockbuster Express machines. However, I agree with you that they are slower than Redbox machines.

If I want to rent a movie, all I have to do is look on demand.

If I want to own a movie, I go to my local Blockbuster, rent a movie, copy the movie, and I could watch it whenever I want!

I like Netflix myself. Never have had any trouble with them.
