I recieved for my birthday 2 months of gamefly. About a month ago I was offered to upgrade to 4 out at a time for a total of 12 dollars so I did. I am getting sick and tired of getting ripped off by these people. I noticed that it takes 3 days for a game to get to me, so it should take 3 days to get back to them but ooooh no it takes sometimes up to 6 days. So on Saturday they recieve 2 games back and fail to issue out any games but there were games available on my list. On Monday they release 1 game and there are like 6 games available off my list so I send them another question about it and this is what they send me.

"Our apologies. We have reviewed your account and noted that you currently have only very popular releases in your GameQ. Therefore, we have been unable to ship a game to you immediately since they have been temporarily unavailable. Please note the availability statuses on the Web site reflect inventory across all of our shipping centers. While the game may reflect "Available Now” or “High" in your Q, it may only be available in the shipping center that is more distant from your residence. We try to ship games from your primary shipping center to allow you to receive your games faster.

To ensure we ship games in the fairest possible manner, we factor in the length of time that you have been waiting for a game (once a return is received in our facility) and the time the desired available game was placed in your GameQ. We do pay close attention to our inventory levels and the titles that are most popular to our members. We will continue to work to minimize the number and duration of unavailable games so we can send you your highest ranked item. We also recommend you add more titles to your GameQ so you do not miss out on receiving games.

We understand that our members want both their first choice and rapid shipping. While we try to meet these expectations every time, exceptions occur where the top ranked item is not available and we realize that it can be frustrating.

Shipping thru the U.S. Postal Service first class mail to or from one of our facilities is estimated to take 2 to 4 days. However, we realize there are exceptions and understand this situation can be frustrating. We work diligently to improve shipping performance and rely on members like you to help us focus on the most important problems.

We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience. If we can be of further assistance, please let us know.

Sincerely,

The GameFly Team


This is Bullsh**....so if anyone out there is in the legal profession or is having the same issue, we need to do something about this. I will not be needing their service when it ends on Jan 24.

I am not complaining about the 3 days to get to me but the amount of time they go back to them....It takes them sometimes 6 days for them to say they got them in their site.


My thing is that the web site says that I have games available and then they dont send any games....I am out the Los Angeles region, then dont show me whats available on the East coast. I am not taking it out on anyone here I am just so upset at them and wanted to know if there are others out there in the same boat.

They did the same to me! I live 3 hours from Tampa Dist. Center but, they used to send everything from LA in 3 days it now takes 4 - 5 days from Tampa. And the same thing happen in regards to Pitt Dist Center, I finally moved it down to 1 game for the last 5 months. Every time I tell them we are quitting they give me the 9.99 deal to stay... I asked them the same thing they don't care...

Why the hell would you want to get four games at a time? :confused: I've had an account with them for almost a year and the most I've ever see them offer is a two game plan. Even if it's a promotional deal, it will only last for one month then they'll charge you around $23 a month for the two game plan.

I haven't had any real problems from them. With only four distribution, the most popular titles are gonna be harder to get. I'm actually about to cancel or suspend my account because I've got a stack of games piling up on me that I haven't got to yet and I don't feel like spending $17 a month anymore for another game to add to the pile.

I used to have Gamefly. I felt like I was getting ripped off. I had the 2 out at a time plan and I was lucky to get TWO games a month. So I said screw it and went to my local Hollywood video and I pay 40 bucks a month for Unlimited Games, I could have 2 games and one movie out at a time. If I didn't like it or I got all the achievements really quick (Avatar) :laugh: I just took them back, with no questions asked. They got to know me well there. They now hold new releases for me.
