Title: Ugh. Why'd I sign up wuth Gamerang?
Post by: GilloD on August 12, 2008, 10:33:27 AM
I used Gamerang a few months ago and had a retardedly great experience. Like 3 day turn-around, always available new title, no probs. So this time I signed up for 2 mths of 2 games out at 40 bucks.

And the service fuckin' blows. 2 weeks since I mailed back Frontline and I haven't gotten anything. Everything is on Short Wait, they don't even have Lost Odyssey. Even SKATE is on "Short Wait". F this.

Happens with every service... new registrants get priority, then get pushed to the back of the line - throttling I think its called

Sorry, it's like a private coupon. I have to use my old login and all. Otherwise you'd be more than welcome.

Also, 17 days after I sent in a game, I am STILL waiting for them to ship a new one. And while Netflix has shipped me three rounds of DVDs in that time, I'm waiting on 6 days since I sent that last one.

Jesus fuck, man

The gift cards I linked to.

Nevermind though, my boss is getting me a gamefly account. Having a job where I never have to leave my home is great.
