Thanks for your help.

Just to let everyone know, I just tried to use QJ4 over the phone and it came up with 5@ .49 each, 1 at 14.95 and 3 more to buy. It also seems to have that ame offer online, so it might be best to use a different code.

Finally (!) got an enrollment through using C7L (6 for $0.49, free shipping, yadda yadda). Hadn't managed to get approved in 6 months but this finally did it.

Did U Use A Credit Card At Checkout with C7L?

atari2600

whats the current best code/deal to fulfill existing open accounts with?

dsa_shea

You can use a credit card with 1KKD. That's what I used and you have the best chance to get approved paying upfront for your enrollment. And I just tried C7L and you can use a credit card with this code as well. I hope this helps. I've sent like 4 applications thorugh in the last few days. I'm hoping to see some of them approved. It's not like they cant see my membership history and see that I've been a good customer.

Hi guys, what's the per DVD cost difference between the best codes with and without a PSN?

sotra

see CH FAQ for more info.

icecube

Thanks...I saw the FAQ but it didn't have the per cost avg for all the following codes:

"1KJ,1KX,1KK,1KG are the best online codes ... NO PSN required"
"Best codes w/ PSN 1LM, LMT, LMY, 38Y, IKJ "

ITALIAN926

All those codes are the same average per DVD. I list as many as we come by so that Columbia House doesnt get 10,000 applications for the same code.

For the lowest possible average, you buy the 6 @ 49 cents each.. + get the first bonus ONLY for $9.95 ... then 2 fullfillment selections at regular price.

icecube

That makes sense. I was just curious if there was a significant difference between the PSN and non-PNS required codes...

ITALIAN926

Nope, thats it.. just the PSN requirement and credit card at checkout.

I just used C7L and it did not ask for a PSN, although i can provide one.

C7M seems to be a code that can be used online without a PSN.

Hey there,

I'm on the CH website trying to buy my 2 at $19.95 or better, but they have this "buy one at regular price, get one half off" and I DON'T WANT THAT. I just want to buy two and make them COUNT. I add one to my cart, and all is well. It shows as counting towards fulfillment. But I've added as many as THREE at $19.95 and the shopping cart keeps slashing half off and then they DON'T count towards fulfillment! What am I missing here?
Thanks!

If it's just the 2 that you want and don't care about any others then the best thing to do would be to just make 2 seperate orders - one right after the other. Either that or some sets count as 2 commitments, but can't think of any off of the top of my head.

You should see this below on the right of your cart:

You have 2 DVDs to buy at regular price before 200X-XX-XX .
Want to buy more DVDs from this order at regular price? Choose how many.

Select Choose how many and enter the number you want to change above. Use the pulldown to select how many sale prices you want to change to reg prices and select recalculate.

ettevroc28

Awesome! Thanks! Worked like a charm. I got Apollo 13 and Silence of the Lambs for regular price to fullfill, and added Road House for $7 something to get free shipping on all 3.

EL_Cangri

NOOOOOOOOO! I thought it was the buy 2, get 2 free deal here when i came into the topic.

tinkerthinker

Got this one in the mail today: BZW. I'm not sure if it requires a PSN.

6 DVD's @ 49 cents w/ free shipping
Get 7th DVD (counts toward fulfillment) for $9.95 w/ free shipping
Get 8th DVD (does not count toward fulfillment) for $9.95 w/ free shipping.

Buy 3 more in the next 2 years, or 2 more if you opt for the 7th DVD.

ITALIAN926

BZW requires a PSN.. and I got BWJ yesterday, same deal.

I have used personal savings codes for my last two on-line applications. I submitted my orders but never received e-mails confirming my membership acceptance. Since these orders were submitted almost five weeks ago, should I assume that my memberships were denied (I called customer service but they were unable to help me)? Do you always get a timely e-mail when a membership has been accepted?

Thanks~

dsa_shea

This may not be true this time. Some of us have recently had applications made a few months ago be accepted and turned in to memberships. Unfortunately for most of us we have already acquired the titles that were asked for in the original applications.

troutmask

Remarkably, I just received acceptance on two applications I had sent in a week or so ago! However, I have already acquired a few of the titles I ordered elsewere. Is CH good about acceptings returns for alternate titles, and if so what is the procedure?

Thanks~

While Columbia House is good about replacing DVDs when they make a mistake, it is not a good idea to make them replace DVDs just because you have changed your mind. CH breaks down returns into two categories: "good" returns, those caused by their own mistakes, such as damaged DVDs, and "bad" returns, those caused by the customer. Too many bad returns and CH may start refusing to let one open new accounts.

The best thing to do with the DVDs you no longer want is to give them away or sell them. Less hassle and less risk of having future accounts denied. Yes, I know that the membership agreement says that you can return DVDs within ten days. But if you take advantage of that policy you aren't the sort of customer they want.

Summary: if it wasn't a CH mistake, keep the DVDs and dispose of them however you please.

My 2¢.
