Oh, I'm sure there'd be *some* french-speaking person who'd been ripped off by DVDsoon who'd be thrilled to translate.
Not me, of course. I live on the West Coast. Here we get confused when the boxes are stacked the wrong way forward on the shelves.

They can interview english people too. They will translate after. They did that in the past. You can send a Email to Dominique and let him know what's the situation for you, how much money they own you. Let's do this together, things will go faster.

Does anyone have an update for the TV consumer spot...?
On a side note, does anyone else notice that you can't order anything with your ipoints? Even though I have done the small chargebacks for my unshipped items and will never order anything from them again, I am trying to get some of the freebies that I can get from them using the ipoints, if they will ever allow them to be used.... Just to add salt to the wound... However, I don't have any hope that this will happen...

To everyone who has initiated a chargeback recently, expect an eMail like this very soon:
"Legal Department"??? Priceless 
Dear Sir;
I have verified and your account was placed on hold by the legal
department. They have recently received a charge back request from your
credit card company and are presently investigating the situation. If
you have any further information that will help us with our
investigation please do contact us once again. We thank you for your
co-operation.

I would tend to agree with that statement, although you never know... there's probably SOMEONE out there who reordered.

Europeans are not likely to be able to cash those cheques, is my experience.
Anyway, there might not be any cash left behind by that time at DVDSLOW....
Why not refunding through my creditcard?
Seems like another smokescreen...

Sounds almost like 11/01 is the date that they are planning to go bye bye. If you're really cynical and suspicious....
I don't see any way that DVDSoon survives this mess. The PR damage alone must have cut their business by 80-90%. The level of incompetence that they have shown in trying to stay afloat is staggering.

The whole quote about charging at the time of purchase is:
The price and the shipping fees are charged at the moment the transaction is completed, meaning, when you click on "Confirm Purchase". This is done so that you pay the price at the moment of the transaction and not of another time, so you can preserve your savings.

I would say any cheque issued by these guys won't be worth the paper it's written on.
Unless you have tried and failed to get a chargeback through your credit card, I wouldn't even fill out this form. I'm sure it's a ploy they'll use to refute the chargeback by saying you've already agreed to wait for a cheque.
