LMT's terms at checkout have been corrected.. SORTVE. Updated opening post
don't forget LMR, LMW, and LMY. They all show up with the same info as LMT.

not true

not true
doh. you are right. I missed the part about having to pay for shipping and processing. I must start reading the offers ;)

Signed up today on the web with LMY. Terms were still incorrect. Didn't ask for credit card number. Confirmation email omitted the 7th DVD I picked. Anyone recieve their enrollment package yet using this code?

When I used LMT the other day, my confirmation e-mail also left off the 7th DVD, but it showed up in my account records on the website after I recieved my membership #. I havn't recieved my enrollments yet, but my order status has changed from "not yet shipped" to "order has already shipped" today.

Very interesting, I haven't gotten any e-mails like a few people here have said, so I have no real idea whats going on, it has been a decent period of time now, even though I enrolled via phone (with LMT) I think things may not have been approved. Not had any trouble before.

Nevermind my last post, received my enrollment DVD's today so good luck to you xpfshost.

Were you asked for a credit card number when you signed up online?I'll jump in here to say that when I used "LMT" over the Web, I was not asked for credit card info but my CH "PSN" was asked for. I have recieved a "we are looking over you app" email but nothing else so far.

Edit- some other previous info I have deleted per good advice from duganrm. Thanks.

(refeissn - regarding Mystic River #disc and Fast Times/Dazed Party Combo in enrollment)I am surprised you were approved - though I have never tried it, some here have told me apps will be rejected if you try to get selections which are not generally available.

I wonder if those titles are available as phone-only enrollments?

Well, I was approved and recieved my enrollments minus Mystic River and the Party Combo. Recieved Rainchecks instead.

What is the best way to use rainchecks? Can they be used over the web or phone? What is the price limit?

thanks

just got a new mailing....even though i am still a member. strange.
anyway, 5 for .49 each + free shipping + buy 4 in 2 years and can take 6th for 9.95 and then only buy 3 more and buy an 8th for 9.95 but it doesnt seem like it will count.
not a great offer but got the mailing. if anyone wants the code email me :)

...What is the best way to use rainchecks? Can they be used over the web or phone? What is the price limit?

thanks The best way is to call them in. By the time you do so, the titles you ordered may already be back in stock. But have some backup selections ready in case they are not.

The CSR will see that you have rainchecks on your account and the DVDs you request will be sent to you free. They must be titles that are available for enrollment (but you can wait awhile if something you want is about to become available for enrollment in the next few weeks).

Well, I just got my acceptance 5 minutes ago for my first LMT order.. Damn :)

First 7 = 13.61

2 to commit plus 1 at sale price to get free shipping
Subtract $5 webdvd order = 53.97


Total = 67.52 for 10 DVD's ... $6.75 average. Simply... WOW This averge could be even lower if $19.95 titles are ordered for commitment. I have no choice but to order newer $21.95 selections ;)

Well, I just got my acceptance 5 minutes ago for my first LMT order.. Damn :) Congrats! Say, how long elapsed from your first applying and getting officially accepted?

Applied on Wednesday, got accepted on Saurday.

from one italian to another...I ask.....

what if... you didn't take the 7th selection..
and had three to buy? considering the 3 would be new releases + free shipping + -$5 webdvd....
wouldn't this more attractive $$ if little more than your $6.75 per enrollment?

That would be 3 for regular price... sooo


here would have been the same selections I bought YOUR way.

Six .49 cents each +tax = $3.12

Three to commit = $21.95 + 21.95 + 21.95 MINUS $5 webdvd PLUS tax = $64.50

Total is 9 DVD's for $67.62 = $7.51 Average.. Good, but not as good.

People should be accustomed to getting the FIRST bonus selection because free shipping for three isnt always available...in which case , you would only order those two fulfillments at regular price.

I'll be using a SIX % sales tax just as an example.

Lowest average strategy for LMT

First seven ( 6 for .49 plus 1 for $9.95 free S/H + tax) = 13.61

Two for commitment ( $19.95 x 2 plus one more to get free shipping ) 3rd dvd on sale from $ 10 and under section $7.95 MINUS $5 webdvd + tax = $45.42

10 DVD's for $59 = $5.90 average price. :)

Gotta love this new code

I just hope that it is still around when the next 3for$25 sale comes around. If there is free shipping at that time, it works out like this (before tax):

6 for .49 + 1 for 9.95 free s/h = 12.49
6 for 50.00 free s/h - 5.00 web discount = 45.00
Total 57.49/13 = 4.42 per DVD before sales tax

Gawd, I hope nobody for CH is reading this! :drool:

6 for .49 + 1 for 9.95 free s/h = 12.49

Minor math error. Should be $12.89. Unfortunately it raises your average to a whopping $4.45 :)

Scott - I hope the planets do again align like that some day; however I fear that 3-for-25, as we knew it, is gone. It took CH a number of months, but I think they all finally decided that 3-for-25 as a commitment just was too good to continue in parallel with the new LMx codes. I was fortunate enough to get one LMT-type account with free shipping with 6-for-50 fulfillment, but they were really pushing back on the fulfillment credit on the set with the $5 off web discount.

Just got a new code to place in the 5 for $0.49 + 1 for $9.95 w/ 2 to buy category:

N1SD

I seem to have lost my last PSN. What's the best code to use to start anew?

Just call in & say you don't "have it in front of you" when they ask for it. It's worked for me in the past - although I have plenty of PSNs to use/re-use :D.

Applied 2/23 w/ YMT, approved 2/24! This is my first acount in a couple months :)

New code in the mail yesterday -- I don't think I've heard this mentioned: MF8D

Requires PSN. Terms same as many other codes: 5 @ $.49 with three fulfillments. Buy a sixth for 9.95 and reduce it to two commitments. Free shipping, etc.

I don't know if this will help anyone, as it is similar to other offers and not quite as attractive as the new LMT. But there it is FWIW.

Blacklisted?

When I use LMT online it says I have to buy 3 fulfillment titles.
Do I have to apply over the phone to get 2 fulfillments or is there another way?

That is correct. You get 6 as part of the deal and you can order an 7th for $9.95 which counts towards your 3 fullfilments. So then you are left with 2.

I used "LMT" over the web recently and the deal I got was 6 DVD's for 49 cents and the 7th selection for 9.95 which counted as a fullfillment which leaves me only 2 commitments. I declined to add an 8th DVD to my enrollment order since it did not count towards fullfillment.

Fixed. Sorry I meant to say that your get 7 total taking the 7th option as 9.95.

Does anyone have a "Preferred Status Number" to share? It asks for one when I try and sign up. Any help would be appreciated.

is this your first membership dsa_shea?

will be my second.

You've got a better chance getting my Social Security Number :)

Seriously, though, if you already have a membership just use the number from that one. It's just your account number.

I just made up a preferred status number and it accepted it. I guess well see what happens from here.

Definitely not the smartest idea I've ever heard. Since you already had a membership why not use the account number from that one? That's all a PSN is. I wish you luck...and hope you don't get blacklisted...

I'm waiting for my account number.

I had not received the psn number yet. I'm sure that it just wont go through.
Your exsisting account number IS your PSN number.

I had not received the psn number yet. I'm sure that it just wont go through.

Hmmm... My account number has always come in the "Welcome to the Club" e-mail. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck.

Maybe to screw with CHs' "mind" - especially if any of those phony nos. are real & CH decides to cross-reference them. Maybe that's why some people are having to "answer a few questions" before their apps are sent thru & approved???

...And for our viewing audience this is yet another reason not to make up PSN's -- you may unintentionally screw up someone's chances who has been honest.

Well, a few of the times I didnt have my PSN's with me... was at another location... and hell I was experimenting I guess. But sumdeus is right, if you make up someone else's PSN, they wont be able to use it themselves.

Nothing says you can't re-use a PSN. I've used some PSNs more than once(even tho I had PLENTY to spare). The web site might block you for a time period, but after a while (months?) you should be able to re-use it.

If you're calling in, just say you don't have it in front of you at the moment -like a lot of us have - and they should still take the app with no problem.

Has anyone been accepted with the 6 box set intro offer?

Nice....thanks for the response. I have been waiting for a few days for a response and was beginning to wonder if these applications just seem to conveniently dissappear.

Has anyone been accepted with the 6 box set intro offer?
If you are talking about on the TV Club, the code will never be approved. It is just a glitch in their system that it allows you to order with that code.

If you are talking about the DVD club, it should work fine and has been approved for many people.

So nobody has been approved in the tv set club with this code? What is a good code to use with the tv club?

Applied on the web w/ the LMT code on 2/23. It's been over a week and haven't gotten approved yet. Anyone else having similar problems?

Happens all the time.. If you dont get approved within a week, its usually lost for good.

" If at first you dont suceed, try try again. "

Guess I'll try again then. I've had 8 previous accounts and never had to retry. I'll probably just call in the order this time. Thanks.

I had same thing happen, and for some reason they are much better over the phone, which in todays time I hate doing but seems it is the most reliable.

So nobody has been approved in the tv set club with this code? What is a good code to use with the tv club? HDL and H6J still work some of the time, last I heard. There are many other codes one can use for the TV edition club (just play some keyboard roulette). To access the TV club, use the links in the first post of the DVD Club: TV Edition Introduction and Discussion Thread (http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=367791).

If you want to call in an order you will probably get the standard deal (they don't accept the best codes on the phone, at last report): 2 sets for $9.95, buy four DVDs of $19.95 or greater to fulfill. Even this is a decent deal. The selection of enrollment sets is larger on the phone but we don't have a list so you just need to try some and see what they accept. When calling in a TV sets order be sure to ask for the "DVD club, TV Edition". You don't want the regular DVD club.

I just used "LMT" and got 6 at $.49 + 2 more at $9.95. I had to make up a PSN but I finally got one through and I already recieved a confirmation email.

Good Stuff!!!

M Polo....Did you use LMT for the regular club or the tv edition club?

regular

thanks! I guess the two for 9.95 isn't bad considering you only have to buy two more dvds over the next year.

I just used "LMT" and got 6 at $.49 + 2 more at $9.95. I had to make up a PSN but I finally got one through and I already recieved a confirmation email.

Good Stuff!!!For the record: it is cheaper to not buy the second extra DVD for $9.95 since it doesn't lower the committment. The average cost of a DVD using LMT (correctly) is $5.86. You paid $9.95 for that 8th DVD.

I looked the the regular dvd club and there isnt enough to interest me joining the club. most of theose titles I either already own or can pick up locally for the same price used but in mint condition. I am howver interested in the tv club and have already signed up.

Wow, if you can find these 2-or-more disc sets for an average of $5.20 in mint condition, let me know where you live - I want to move there! (These are all ones I have bought over the last year from Columbia House, and my average price after fulfillment was $5.20).

Sure occasionally I find one of these in a pawn shop cheap - I got another Goodfellas SE for $5, and 2 Se7en Platinums for $5 (cases were beat up) - but they are rare. People who buy these expensive SEs don't usually resell them cheaply.

Alot of those titles you mentioned above are good ones. Unfortunately I have about half of them already. I'm glad you posted though because now Ill reconsider for a few of those titles.

I realized that but I snagged a King of New York SE for my 8th and $10 isn't wasn't bad for it in my book.

Everytime I use my PSN (past 4 times) to take advantage of these great deals CH always sends me an email saying congrats, we will email you again after we verify your order status, which can take up to 7 days.

BUt then they NEVER send me that second email nor the DVD's. Is my PSN number black listed or something? Please help.

BUt then they NEVER send me that second email nor the DVD's. Is my PSN number black listed or something? Please help. Your experience is the same as many others. Why these applications get "lost" is a mystery. Sometimes they will send a letter saying that you have been turned down but usually they will not. It may have something to do with the number of accounts you have had or the time between them, but that is just a guess.

If you are really "blacklisted" you should get a letter saying that Columbia House has made a "business decision" to close your accounts. Whether refusing new accounts is a form of blacklisting is unclear since many have been able to open accounts over the phone after having numerous web applications lost.

This is why most of us suggest trying a phone order. Those usually have a higher sucess rate than web orders.

It is when you can get it for $5.86 next time around ! :p

True but as my DVD want list grows I'm sure I'll use the $5.86 next time for a nicer 2 Disc SE/CE DVD.

Oh well though, I always HAVE had a problem with responsible spending, lol!!!!

Call them on the phone. That is your best bet. I have had so many web applications go into the great abyss. But when I call them on the phone, the order always gets approved.

There are some quirks with their website. That is basically an understatement. From what I understand you have to enter your information on the website then a CH employee has to transfer that info into their system. There may be problems on that end. For sure you are not the only one this is happening to.

As I said above, call them on the phone. That takes care of any website issues immediately.

Tim :-)

Ive randomly made up PSN's in the past.. its worked like 5 times for me w/ no problems.

The one time I did not have my PSN available when I called on the phone, the CH representative said it was no problem. The application was approved.

I got an offer in the mail today, a code I didn't see in the 1st post.

It is M1XD,and is of this variety:

Quote:
You get 5 DVDs for 49¢ each-- shipping and processing is FREE!
As a Club member, all you need to do is buy 3 more movies in the next 2 years at regular Club prices (currently as low as $19.95 plus shipping and processing). You may cancel anytime thereafter.

ADVANCE BONUS OFFER!

Take a 6th movie now for $14.95 (FREE shipping and processing)and have only 2 more movies to buy (instead of 3) in the next 2 years. Plus, you can even take a 7th movie for the special price of $9.95--shipping and processing is once again FREE.

Got a 24 hour approval. That was fast. Wiil have to see how long it takes to get the order.

Got approval in 2 days time with code 'LMT'. Been a while since I've had an account but I had enough DVDs on my wishlist saved up to get back in the game. 'LMT' looks like a fantastic code. 9 total DVDs for less than $6 a DVD. Many thanks to whoever posted this code first (last time I joined the best codes were in the mid $7 range). I see that the CH website is as flaky as I remember it. My confirmation email only listed 6 DVDs and the terms/agreement (the one you have to click on near the end of your order) page when I ordered listed needing 3 more commitments even though I got the $9.95 bonus dvd -- but I just logged into my account and it shows all 7 from my enrollment order and only 2 more commitments necessary so all's well that ends well.

Time to order my two commitments and close the sucker out. God bless CH :-)

Time to order my two commitments and close the sucker out. God bless CH :-) Make sure you read the Double action thread with the buy 1 get 1 free code. (if youre not aware) Make two seperate orders and get yourself a free DVD for each one.

Just logged into CH and picked 6 titles which are normally $14.95 or less, and the 3 for $25 deal did not kick in like it normally does. Instead of $50 for 6, it was $87.70. WTF? I figured if it ended it would be mentioned here, but do not see it.

It ended

Ok, now it's mentioned. : )


Ok. so what is the best average price one can expect in the TV club?? And are there code for that? Saw the note about the site accepting LMT as a glitch and remember trying that myself a while back, but never getting those dvds, so that explains that. But ARE there any TV codes?

and 146 (http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showpost.php?p=5860577&postcount=146) in that thread for more information.

Many thanks! Reading it now.

Here's another I did not see mentioned: CTWD

in the variety of 5 for $0.49 + 6th for $9.95, free-shipping 2 commitments

Member BUB from another thread added 38Y to our (LMT LMY) list. According to old rules, this code MIGHT give a credit card option at checkout. It doesnt seem like there is one to me.. but I need definite confirmation when someone uses it. Next person to use 38Y, please post.

The two recent join-the-club mailings I've received are:

MFPD -- this is a 5 for .49 cents, free shipping, buy another at $9.95 and only have to buy 2 to fulfill type of code

and

38YD -- which I see above and after doing a quick search has already been posted. I'll probably be opening a new account shortly and will use 38YD. Someone will probably beat me to it but if not I will be sure to post my experience using the code...

I just signed up using 38Y and was never asked for a credit card. Whats the difference between 38Y and 38YD?

Its been 36 hours and so far nothing.

update- still no approval email, but I got a shipping confirmation email today. Got the account # on the invoice, logged in and paid for the enrollment selections.

1. You'll want to pay full price for Paycheck so that it counts for fulfillment. And you got a $10 coupon, too. Nice.

2. If there were a free shipping code known to us, it would've been posted,

3. Although it isn't clear, this thread is geared towards enrollment codes. There is a separate thread for codes for established acccounts.

I'm trying to use code for my first emrollment package, but they keep asking for my PSN. I thought you didn't need a PSN code to use the 38Y and 38D codes? I have never used CH before and don't have one.

If you're enrolling over the phone, try telling the CSR that you don't have the PSN handy (say you just wrote down the bonus code, but can't find the mailing). This usually works.

If worse comes to worse, just apply with the regular terms (no bonus code). Even though it's not nearly as good a deal, once you finish your first account, you'll have a PSN to use on dozens of future accounts.

I'm overseas at an APO address; CH would not let me order online without emailing first. Then when they replied, they told me I had to choose 5 and purchase 5 over two years. Most people here get 5 and purchase 2.... Is this a new thing? Please help.... I'm trying to figure out if this is worth the hassle. Thanks.

You need to ask to use a better "savings code" when you enroll. A good one is LMTD, discussed earlier in this thread (6 for 49¢, one additional for $9.95, all with free shipping, then two more fulfillments to complete the account). How this would work when ordering by e-mail, I couldn't say (never give a credit card number by e-mail, by the way). You could try explaining the terms of the savings code you want to use and see what they say.

You might be better off phoning in the order but I am not sure which number you would call from overseas, I can't find their non-800 number, although I know they have one.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

You've been great Lizard, thank you. If you have a number for them I can call from here--Vonage Broadband is a wonderful thing....I have a local number overseas! I was looking for ANY number for CH yesterday with no luck. They seem to have that info under lock and key... I'll check Google and Yahoo today and see what I find. When I get a number I will just call in the order to make sure everything goes the way it should. Again, thanks. You've been very helpful.

For new applications use 888-242-3837

The regular CSRs at the number emerald9999 gave above can no longer use the best codes when opening new accounts (but you'll need it if you get an account opened). Whether the phone application takers will accept an application with an APO address I couldn't say.

I got this one in an email. P7G It's not as good as the LMT codes, but it's a good backup if the others stop working.
You get 6 DVDs for 49¢ each--FREE shipping and processing.
As a Club member, all you need to do is buy 3 more movies in the next 2 years at regular Club prices (currently as low as $19.95 each plus shipping and processing). You may cancel anytime thereafter by contacting Customer Service.

ADVANCE BONUS OFFER!

Take a 7th movie now for the special price of just $14.95 (FREE shipping and processing) and have only 2 more movies to buy at regular Club prices(instead of 3) in the next 2 years. Plus, you can even take a 8th movie for $9.95 (FREE shipping and processing).

UPDATE: They corrected the typographical errors for the DETAILS of the codes LMT, LMY and 38Y. Updated initial post.

APO ADDRESS DILEMMA SOLVED!!!!

I am fortunate enough to have a diplomatic pouch address option ( it only comes in maybe once a month tho...) I used that address with the P7G code and it worked. I tried calling the number emerald gave me, but it was busy the entire time.... So I went online and used the code. My plan is to change my address after a few weeks to the APO that way I will get my mailings in a timely manner. Hopefully that will work. The APO/FPO plan CH offers is not a deal at all. This worked just fine though.

QUESTION--I signed my husband up for the "refer friends and get 2 dvds" offer.... Does anyone know if I can get away with his name and email but the same address?

A BIG thank you for Emerald9999, Lizard, and D-Ball--I couldn't have done this without your help.
Shae

You can have 2 DVD accounts on same address (as my and my wife has). There is no need to refer as the deal is not worth the money. Instead join as regular using one of the better code. I think you will need to pay shipping on 2 free dvds so its not even free. Plus other person will have 5 commitments. (that is almost twice than with code meaning if two quit and rejoin again using codes you get 10-12 free dvds instead of 2+5)

QUESTION--I signed my husband up for the "refer friends and get 2 dvds" offer.... Does anyone know if I can get away with his name and email but the same address?

No !! Dont do that, youll be signing up your friend.. or husband to a standard deal with 5 commitments. You cannot use a code for the reffered deal. Instead just sign up brand new usuing the best codes.

By the way, why did you care to donate an extra $5 to CH by using P7G ?

Okay, I will just sign him up seperately using P7G unless someone knows of another code.. THANK YOU Italian and zaq12wsx, I'm learning so much from all of you!

I honestly didn't know I was spending more...I used P7G because 38D, 38Y, 38YD and LMT all asked for PSN numbers which I don't have. I tried to wing a number once, but nothing ever came of it except an email saying APO users have another deal--which is really horrible (5+5 commitments)--Hopefully now that I'm lucky enough finally to have a decent account I can get even better deals in the future... We're kinda stuck with things like this over here, this code worked and I took it! Now I will be only 6-8 months behind in movies instead of 12-18 months!!!!! Unfortunately Israel doesn't have a black market for movies like Nepal and Thailand did!; Bummer.

You didnt need a PSN for P7G ??? You just gave me a very important piece of information... THANX.

Updated opening post.

NOPE!!!! That is why I was so happy and jumped on the deal! All the other ones required one. I'm glad I actually helped someone!! I feel better now... Everyone has been so great and helpful to me. You have a great forum here with great members.

NOPE!!!! That is why I was so happy and jumped on the deal! All the other ones required one. I'm glad I actually helped someone!! I feel better now... Everyone has been so great and helpful to me. You have a great forum here with great members. Once you have the first account number from the P7G account you ought to be able to use it as a PSN for your next account using the best codes.

That P7G D-Ball found and you used is the best non-PSN code we have seen, by a wide margin, which is why ITALIAN926 is so pleased. We get so used to good codes requiring a PSN that we often don't check them to make sure.

I trust that you are able to play Region 1 DVDs overseas or you wouldn't be buying them. How does that work? Do you just use standard US equipment adapted to the local power source? A region free player?

I'm so glad I was able to find that out for you guys, even if it was an accident!!! As for the Region 1 DVDs, we have multi-system 110/220v players that play all regions and regular 110v that are connected to a voltage transformer that play only region 1 dvds. Needless to say, we have a TON of components and our TVs are dwarfed in comparrison to them... Most military exchanges have 110/220 multi-system equipment; they are hard to find at Best Buy or Circuit City but can be ordered.

Columbia House actually sent me a decent "We want you back" e-mail code: P5X. This is a standard 6/2 ($14.95 bonus) code and doesn't appear to require a PSN. Not as good as P7G above, but a decent deal that we were happy to get not so long ago.

[Before someone asks, the code is embedded in the URL of the site that the e-mail links to.]

I have been clicking on those "We want you back" e-mails for years and this was the first respectable deal I have ever received. So, check those e-mails and see what other codes come up.

Im adding P8A, P7P AND P7M to the second best code list to mix things up. None of which require PSN's

Does anyone have a code that you can type in under the section "Looking for the offer in your mailing?"

Does anyone have a code that you can type in under the section "Looking for the offer in your mailing?"Why? You receive such offer codes in mailings, like the one that came in your enrollment package. But the deals usually aren't worth bothering with. Your current offer will be at the top of the page anytime you log-in to your account, no need to enter a code. The current "free shipping for three" offer is on all accounts.

Once in awhile Columbia House throws a decent sale code our way and it gets much discussed in other threads. (This thread is for enrollment codes.) An example of such a thread is: New CH code for established accounts..... (http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=412149) Most of the codes mentioned there no longer work but one that does (on my account at least) is 801050:
Get Unlimited DVDs at 50% off
when you buy one at regular price. Plus, enjoy a Special Reward and get an EXTRA $10 FunCash with your order of $35 or more!
But that isn't a very good deal because funcash has become almost worthless.

I have tried to create a new account with many on the codes listed. When I go to sign up I get the following message.

"You get 5 DVDs for 49¢ each with Free Shipping!
As a Club member, all you need to do is buy 5 more movies in the next 2 years at regular Club prices"

I do not want to continue if I have to buy 5 more. What is up with this, I have been a member in the past but have not been a member for the last two years.

It seems that the site will not take the codes for the dvd or the music. I am running XP with sp2 anyone else having issues?

Thanks for your help

Are you entering the code in the "Enter Savings Code" box & clicking on "GO"? Clicking on any other link/picture will get you the default deal.

Are you entering the code in the "Enter Savings Code" box & clicking on "GO"? Clicking on any other link/picture will get you the default deal.

I think I was clicking on the pic then entering the code in the box were it listed it when you selected the movies.

I have tried entering the code on the main page and clicking on GO and it just returns me to the main page. I have also tried turning off pop-ups blocked that is in sp2. It still does the same thing. Any ideas?

The enrollment site does not work correctly with certain browsers. Try using IE for your application. I tested the site and it works fine. Please be sure you are using the right website:
www. columbiahouse.com/sa/ch/homepage.jsp (delete the space after www. ) Other than that, I have no suggestions.

We need a 7/2 code that allows you to put in a CC number.

We need a 7/2 code that allows you to put in a CC number.Why? If you apply on the phone you can use a credit card. If you apply on-line you can add a credit card to the account as soon as on-line access is enabled — usually a day or two after the application is accepted.

Lizard, Italian, Emerald, D-Ball--THANK YOU!!

P7G worked like a charm, I received my DVDs, and was able to change my address to the APO! I could never have gotten a better deal without your help! This Forum is wonderful!

Got a new code in the mail today: M2B

It's of the 7/2 $14.95 variety (2nd best codes out there) like these:

P7G, P7P, P7M, P8A (lowest average dvd price = 7 enrollment + 2 regular price to fullfill)
This code to be used if this is your first time ordering & you dont have a PSN ( previous account number)

Because some people like to sign up via the web and CH sometimes doesnt notify you and let you know you were approved. With a cc, you can check to see a charge instead of guessing if you were approved or not, and should then apply again.

I received a similar code in the mail today: M2AD. However, it requires 4 fulfillment titles, and the optional 7th title is $9.95 (counts as one of the 4 fulfillment titles), with an option for an 8th at $9.95 (does not count towards fulfillment.)

Is it just me, or is the system requiring a 4 digit savings code now? Am I doing this right? When I look it up it says that it wants a 4 digit code for your specific offer. Could they have changed the system? None of the codes listed on this thread are working for me (I get the pop-up change offer window, but it stays blank unless I put in a 4 digit code, which I make up as a test, and then it says that it doesn't recognize the code).

Any ideas about what's going on? (Is it just me?)

I placed an odrer using LMT not even an hour ago.

OK, now it works. I'm really confused - but I'm not arguing at this point....

OK, now it works. I'm really confused - but I'm not arguing at this point....Three letter codes work fine for me. Be sure that you are using the code window at www. columbiahouse.com (delete space after www. ). If you want to use a four character code, the fourth is always "D" for "DVD Club". For example: LMTD.

Not adding M2H because its asking for a PSN. Thanx though.


QHR is a 4 commitment code.. knocked down to 3 w/ bonus , according to the website right now.

What's the deal with Columbiahouse's site right now? Whenever I started up a new account previously I had a search engine and a large selection, but now I just get their blue page with a limited selection of titles. I know for fact that there were more titles available when I went throught the club a few months ago...

Does anyone know why things have changed? Or is there a special link to the better selections that I haven't found yet?

Just go to the music club first, then click the DVD club link in the top right corner - you will get the searchable page.

Thanks! Do you have a link to the music club?

When I just go to www.columbiahouse.com I get two links, the CD club and the DVD club. Of course if I click on the DVD club I get the page I mentioned previously, but if I click on the CD club I get a similar page to the DVD club but without any links to the DVD club like you mentioned...

When you are at the cd club...look at the upper right hand corner of the page and there should be a link to (among other things) the "DVD Club". Just click that and you should be where you want to be.

I have good news and bad news for you.

First the good news. When you go to the original columbiahouse .com site, don't click on the "12 CDs" link, but rather click on one of the album cover pictures above that link. That should take you to the correct CD club link, where, in the upper right hand corner you will see the DVD Club link I mentioned yesterday.

Now the bad news. As others have reported today even when you click on the DVD Club link shown there it now takes you to the abbreviated DVD Club site and not the full site. As of yesterday (6/22) this link was taking you to the correct club site, but today it is not. Hopefully this is all temporary, but we will have to wait and see.

I don't know why I see a different website than everyone else... When I go to the original www.columbiahouse.com site there are no album covers, just two text links that read... "Get 12 CDs for FREE" and "Get 5 DVDs for 49¢ Each"...

Thanks for the info though...

What browser are you using? As I recall, CH has problems with browsers other than IE. The fact that you are being redirected to a page with the word "error" in it makes me think there is some kind of a problem. Also, you might try the famous "clear cookies" remedy as well as be sure to allow for popups.

Of course all of this is moot at the moment since even getting to the "correct" CD page won't get you to the correct DVD page :brickwl: !!

[QUOTE=maineiac]What browser are you using? As I recall, CH has problems with browsers other than IE.[QUOTE]


I'm actually using Internet Explorer 6.0. I would try the clear cookies thing, but as you said...the site isn't there at the moment. Thanks anyway...

I've tried with IE and Firefox and I'm having the same problem.... A small selection of DVD's with no search option. :(

I just tried it and the search option was back. As I was selecting my 5 title, an error screen kept appearing. Now it takes you back to the small selection of DVDs screen and cleared out my cart

Do you have a direct link?

As suggested to me earlier, I deleted my cookies and was able to get to this site...

http://go.columbiahouse.com/cache/home.do?club=3&cache=true&v=294&mode=QJ3&group=NORMAL

...It's different than the previous "Red" site, but there's still no search option.

...It's different than the previous "Red" site, but there's still no search option.This "blue site" is the problem. It doesn't have a search function, as you say. So far as I am aware, the only way to get to a searchable enrollment site is using the roundabout way through the Music club:
• from the main Columbia House page, click on a music club icon
• click on club help at the top right
• click on DVD club help at the lower left

This takes you to a searchable DVD club page. If you get an error message, delete all Columbia House cookies and repeat the process. Once at the page:
• Enter the enrollment code, as usual
• Do NOT click on any links (except for "details", if you wish)
• Use the search function to select DVDs and add them to the shopping cart
• Check out as usual

I tested this to the checkout page but wasn't able to place an order since I am not in the market for a new club membership.

This method continues to work but Columbia House may shut it down (perhaps after reading this post). Then we can always fall back on phone enrollments until or unless CH resumes using the normal enrollment site.

6 July 2005, the "back door" is now dead since Columbia House has discontinued its music club in favor of BMG music club. BMG recently purchased CH.

The good news is that the "blue site" now has a search function, making the back door irrelevant.

I got another offer in the mail today: M2P

This is the same terms of M2B which I posted earlier in this thread. It probably also requires a PSN, so it probably isn't a good code, and since CH does not support Firefox anymore, I can't even check for you. Stupid CH.

why are NONE of the codes working right now? im using the blue site - is that why?This might not be your problem, but ITALIAN926 reported in another thread that one can only use one code at a time on the blue site. Any additional codes one tries do not change the offer. To try another code close the browser window and open a new one and start over with the .columbiahouse.com website.

The site seems to be working ok. Use Internet Explorer (the website doesn't like other browsers), click on the "join now" button, enter the code in the popup window, check details of the offer, start shopping.

If you enter the code in the window on the main "Join Today" page it doesn't seem to take. You need to enter it in the popup window or in the "Do You Have a Savings Code" box on the enrollment website.

i never get a pop up - that might be why

^ Perhaps you have pop ups blocked; if so it would be best to enable columbiahouse pop ups. But using the code box on the enrollment page (under the slots for selections you have chosen) should work also.

If I have a PSN from another account, but that account is under a different name but still of someone else in my household, can I use that same PSN when signing up under my own name so as to get the best deal? Again, both accounts would have the same address, same last name even. Will that work, or will I have to sing up under my own name with the 2nd best deal first to get my own PSN? I can easily use another email too, if that helps.

Applied with LMT tonight; however, I didn't see a place to prepay with a credit card - was that option removed?

I don't think LMT ever had an option of paying with a card. The theory was if you've had a previous account [you have a PSN], then CH can trust you with up to 8 movies without any money up front.

I tried P8A to get a new account for my shiny new PO box, and I was told the code is invalid. I didn't know a code could walk to begin with, but there you go.

Well, I thought it was funny. http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=invalid

Anyway, let it be known that P8A doesn't work over the phone.

Are there any codes left that offer 2 free, buy 2, and get 3 free afterwards? The ones I knew have all expired (DDL, etc). Those are my favorite codes as I can save the 3 free for new releases that become enrollments in 3 months.

^ ddtd, although the terms are garbled when one checks "details", so it may not work right. Prices for those old codes average out to quite a bit more than the current best codes.

The old 2+2+3 codes were:
4cv cxc ddk ddt de4 dec ($7.83 average)

Perhaps you can get one of them to work correctly.

I tried P8A to get a new account for my shiny new PO box, and I was told the code is invalid. I didn't know a code could walk to begin with, but there you go.

:lol:

Are there any codes like 'LMT' which have the option of being billed at checkout? It's nice to be able to check your bank statement online and see if you have a temporary charge or not.

No there isnt.. none found yet anyway. Call up if u want to use a credit card right away.

That's what I'm going to have to do now after the shenanigans I had to go through with my last two LMT accounts. Dang, and I thought I wouldn't have to listen to all the extraneous offers on how I can earn $40 in gasoline etc...

i recently used LMT and was accepted, once i received the "welcome email", i went to my account and added my credit card info...it was painless. :)

Quick question (I browsed though this thread and didn't see the answer):

Can a PSN from a TV Club membership be used to sign up for the DVD Club membership?

^ Yes it can. Any Columbia House membership number can be used as a PSN.

Hello, problem here. I tried LMTD and at the part where they ask you if you want another 9.95 title I skipped it so when it is supposed to give me my receipt it just went to some normal page and didn't show it to me. Is LMTD dead or have a problem? I never received any e-mail like reviewing your application right after or anything either. Ugh, really want this application in.

I just used LMTD for a phone app on 9/14. DVDs came today. :)

I've been trying to put in a new web app but no matter what code I use I get a 6+3 purchases required. Anyone else having this problem recently?

Well what codes are you trying? Isn't a 6 with 3 more to buy(take 7th @9.95 making it 2) the best code?

Since for some reason online apps refuse to submit, just called by phone to enroll, here's to hoping it goes through. Really wanting the Errol Morris titles.

I opened an account with LMT last week and got my DVDs in the mail yesterday! Was a web enrollment.

Well what codes are you trying? Isn't a 6 with 3 more to buy(take 7th @9.95 making it 2) the best code?

I should have been clearer: The codes all showed up as 6+4, then only needing 3 if you bought the extra one with enrollment.

Just tried LMT on the CH website. Here is what it says:

"It's true. Choose 6 DVDs for $0.49 each, with free shipping! All you need to do is buy 3 DVDs over the next 2 years at $19.95 or more plus shipping and processing, and you may cancel at anytime after doing so. Plus, our DVDs are always available with great deals, so you can purchase items toward your commitment - - and continue to save at the same time when you order DVDs that are on sale!

There's no risk, your introductory package is sent on a 10-day trial basis and includes complete details of membership. If you are not completely satisfied, you may return the package at our expense and we'll cancel your membership and refund your money.

Pretty good, right?

It gets even better.... Take a 6th movie now for $9.95 with free shipping and have only 2 more movies to buy (instead of 3) in the next 2 years. Plus, you can take a 7th movie for the special price of $9.95 with free shipping."

I get that too, which is the standard LMT deal. Not sure what problem you're having emerald9999. Maybe try clearing out any CH cookies and try again.

Sunday night I entered the lmtd code. I still haven't received a confirmation email. Should I try it again, but with lmt? Thanks.

AFAIK all codes ending with D are for phone in only.

Got a "Come back today" code in my email today that is the same as lmt but without the need for a PSN, you can also pay with a CC at checkout. The code is 1kj.

AFAIK all codes ending with D are for phone in only. The "D" stands for DVD club. Since the mailings use the four character codes it is best to use the D on phone orders but it can also be used with on-line orders. LMT and LMTD are the same code.

I got the same e-mail.

BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR NEW CODE

OK, it looks like the deals are getting even better. I got a mailing today but it seems like it MUST BE mailed in... No call in or online. This will be my first mail-in application.

6 DVD's 49cents FREE Shipping and processing
1 Bonus at $9.95
ONE COMMITMENT instead of 2 !!!!!!!!

For more details there is a whole thread about this
http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=440402

The only thing i don't understand is. Is this only open to previous BMG members or is it open to previous Columbia House members?

BMG was not mentioned AT ALL in the mailing I recieved... and the offer I recieved was better than that BMG club one .
6 @ .49 each Free SH.. plus a bonus at $9.95 Free SH (making it 1 fullfillment instead of 2) .. and an option for an 8th at $9.95

It's about time something interesting started to happen around here. Sheesh, it's been quiet!

New codes from "we want you back" e-mails: 1kkd, 1kgd

• 6 @ 49¢ plus $9.95 bonus, free shipping ($12.89 total), two to fulfill.
• No PSN required.
• Might require credit card like 1kj mentioned above by Shonn but I have no way to test it without risking placing an order.

I just did an online order with 1kgd and I can verify that it doesnt requre a PSN and it does ask for a credit card payment. Thanks!!

I just tried 1kj, 1kkd, and 1kgd on the phone and none of them worked. The only way to get the same offer was with a psn. For those that care, I also tried ordering Red Dragon Directors Edition and was not able to.

^Yes, they may have asked for a PSN on the phone when I used 1kkd (although my notes suggest that they didn't). Since I have lots of them I didn't pay much attention, but in the past just saying that "I don't have it in front of me" has worked fine.

I presume that you called 888-242-3837. The regular Columbia House phone numbers do not work for new accounts using the best codes.

If you haven't ever had an account before you should have no trouble applying on the web. If you have had accounts before you have a PSN (an account number from a previous account). It is only those of us who have had many previous accounts that have difficulty with web applications not being accepted.

Yep, called 888-242-3837. I've had quite a few accounts and haven't been able to sign up on the web for the past few months, that's why I decided to try over the phone (I also wanted to see if I could get Red Dragon).

^Curious. When you say that "none of them worked", what exactly did they say when you gave them the code? And, if they asked you for a PSN, why didn't you just give them one?

I was told 1kKd was not an active code when I applied just now by phone - I had to resort to the reliable old LMT.

Just curious - has anyone taken them up on the trial offers that get you a $25 Walmart GC and a $25 pre-paid gas card? Seemed too good to pass up - plus, they owed me one - I had applied to the BMG music club through a pop-up ad and was suppposed to get a $50 restaurant gift card - but while I was filling out the application, any reference to such offer conveniently disappeared.

I called three times and everyone said the codes didn't show up on their computer. One person tried to give me a crappy deal while the third person could give me the same terms as one of those codes but with a psn. I did accept the third offer with the psn, I just didn't want to have to go searching for one as I haven't kept track of which i've used so i just gave her the psn from the card on the top of the stack.

^ Well, I am baffled. I used the code on the phone only a week ago and it seems to work fine on-line. Guess they decided to pull the new ones for some reason.

Strange... I just tried the IKJ, 1kk, and 1kg codes to apply for a new account online. They all required a PSN, and none gave me a credit card option at the end.

1KJ...

not IKJ

Oops, minor typo there. But yes, 1kj is what I actually used along with the other two.

How weird, IKJ is basically the same code.. and I need confirmation of PSN reqirements for the others.

OK, do we need PSN's or not ? Somebody says yes , someone says NO.

I applyed for another account yesterday with 1kj and didn't need a PSN.

I just went in a minute ago and tried all three codes again. This time, they DIDN'T ask for a PSN. Guess I shouldn't be surprised, it being a Columbia House website and all...

When I bring up the website to start a new account I no longer see an option for any savings code I might have?

Does anyone else have the same problem? Or is it just me?

Maybe some could drop a link taking me to the page that would allow me to get 6 for $12.48?

Just used 1KJ with no PSN asked for. I did have to pay with a CC. 8 titles for $22.84; not too shabby! FWIW, I used the www.columbiahouse.com URL.

Whereabouts is the savings code box located?

I had it before when I tried to create a new account, but when I bring up the site to join as a new member I can't find it anymore.

What does the 1KJ code allow you to do?

When I go to the URL above, the first thing I get (since I have not created a cookie with my account login yet) is the screen offering 6 titles for $.49, with the savings code box at the lower right. Are you not getting this? In the past, because of the cookie, I would have to login on a machine I had never used for CH yet to get this screen. Even clearing my cookies on my principal computer would not let me create a new account. HTH.

What does the 1KJ code allow you to do?Go to www. columbiahouse.com (delete the space after www. ) and right in the middle of the page is a box with a "Go" button next to it. Enter the code in the box and press Go.

1kjd, and many similar codes, allow you to buy 6 DVDs for 49¢ plus a bonus for $9.95 that reduces your committment to just two; shipping is free. The total enrollment cost is $12.89 for the seven DVDs. You must eventually purchase two DVDs at $19.95 or higher to fulfill your account.

1kjd, 1kgd, 1kkd do not require a PSN (a number from a previous account) but do require a credit card when used on-line.

The DVD Talk forum automatically captures www. columbiahouse.com (without the space) and links to a referral page. This is why we have to break up columbiahouse.com addresses when we post them here. To get to the main CH home page just type the address in your browser window, don't use links from here.
