Okay, a small rant.
I joined the Disney Movie Club well over a year ago because we were buying a lot of their movies for Kay’s kids and Disney has a lot of good adult stuff too.
I received my first batch of movies, sent the card in saying I didn’t want that month’s feature and then heard nothing. About a month or so later I got an email asking me to call to verify my address for them because something was wrong with my account. So, I did, was assured everything was fixed and I would receive my next catalogue and feature selection soon. Nothing happened for six months and I got another email. I did the same procedure then and still was not receiving anything.
So, today, along comes another email. The instructions were exactly the same. I just got off the phone after verifying my address for the third time. I explained this to the woman who stuck to her script and never acknowledged me once. Before we hung up, I asked if there was a record of my other calls and she just said, “yes, now would you like to pre-purchase a copy of the Jungle Book live action movie?” I declined, keeping my pain induced anger in check. We exchanged pleasantries that neither of us meant and hung up.
On the bright side, at least if they say I am in breach of my contract for not buying the quota of movies, I know that my attempts to receive the packages are on record!
And really, who can stay angry with a company that has given us Mickey Mouse, Mary Poppins, Frozen, and now owns Star Wars! 🙂
Lydia!
That would annoy me! But I’m obsessed with Disney and if I had the money I probably would join the movie club too lol.

It really is worth it. You do save and the commitment isn’t very big. But yes, I am a little ticked. A friend said they sound like a real Mickey Mouse organization LOL!!!

Lydia you are a good soul because I Jacqueline would have lost it a little bit of my politeness and chewed her ears for the record. I love Disney, but not enough to be treated shabbily. Let’s hope they don’t call again in six months time with the same…

If they do, I will tell them that they can stuff their membership and that I will fight having to buy 4 more movies because I haven’t received any catalogues to do so! Thanks for your compliment.

Ridiculous they still haven’t gotten it correct. I myself might have kept my temper but I would have been too annoyed and cancelled all so well done for keeping cool!

Lydia, you are a good soul as Jacqueline says. I don’t know that I would be as patient as you are. I think I might have turned into the Beast!

LOL! Well, if it happens a fourth time I think the Beast or the Hulk (now also Disney) might just come out of me!
