iTunes movie codes???

Kendo said:
This might be a dumb question but I'm trying to redeem a code that I purchased through iTunes on my iPhone and it says 'This feature is temporarily unavailable. Try again later'.

Does that mean it is a bunk code or is the whole service down? Because I tried putting in a fake code (switched the last letter with a number) just to see if a different message comes up, and it gives me the same message.

I got that same message earlier today when I went to watch a movie during lunch

I thought my work started to block iTunes movies.
Music was playing fine earlier.

That is correct but UV has more movies due to some not offering iTunes version of movie and only UV. So if I want a movie not offered in iTunes community I have to keep other UV movies on app like Vudu.

This is what confuses me about UV and especially buying them. You have to specific with what you want. The great thing about Disney's DMA/DC+ is that it comes in every format.

Great deal! I've made it a mission to not spend more than $3 on a movie and $5 on Disney movies. If not, I'd be buying every single movie. Also I ignore movies with no iTunes Extra features.

love the extras! Evil Dead extra's are great. that film is only 4.99 on iTunes right now. We should have an iTunes deal thread :)

This is AMAZING

almost sounds too good to be true

In the back of my mind though I'm dreading a day if studios decide to crack down on this. Take these sites down, seize the credit card/paypal info and hits us all with fines and pull the movies from our Itunes libraries. :confused:

hopefully not though because this is a really amazing thing.
 
I've spent like $30 since yesterday. Agghhh!

11 movie titles and one season of a show. Not bad at the end of the day.
 
I just saw a thread where a guy sold a DC+ but the buyer redeemed the DC+ and DMA. How does this happen? Isn't there only one code for each or is it the same code that you redeem twice?

Btw I'm not looking to scam. I want to make sure I don't do it accidentally because even when I look at the online stores, they give you a message where they will charge your PayPal if you redeem more than once or something.

Edit - Never mind. I re-read the thread and got the answer in another post.

The buyer probably redeemed it on iTunes, vudu, Mgo etc. If the Seller sold it as a DC+ For only one specific format, the buyer should have been honest and done so. It's a risk the seller has to take. I tried to buy a DC+ earlier for iTunes but that portion was redeemed already when it wasn't supposed to. I just asked for a refund and got one immediately.

Thanks this worked. But how come you can redeem this more than once since I'm sure tons of posters have redeemed this.

I've seen people mention codes that have a "Flixster glitch" and I have no real idea of what that is, except that it must mean that they can be redeemed multiple times and this is one of them. ;)
 
There is/was a Flixster glitch.. it affected mostly TV series and the amount of redemptions either synced with the Number of Seasons or the Number of actual Shows

-------------------------------

as for redeeming both DC+ and DMA...it could be the person deemed the DC+ and then ran that same code through DMR (for points only)...effectively ruining the second redemption for the movie.

-------------------------------

Also, it seems today (10/29) Get Him to the Greek is $5.99 on iTunes
and Honey is $4.99

plus lots of Halloween movie sale for $7.99 and $9.99 on iTunes store
 
I wanted to pass this along even though it's not a digital movie code. Just another bonus that they're reselling from bluray/DVD packages:

Seven dollars off a ticket to Spectre for only 75¢!
Confirmed working for me. The code is redeemed through Fandango (activaterewards.com) for a printable coupon.

Free Code. Enjoy!

Star Trek Into Darkness
Blu-Ray 3D
Either UltraViolet or Digital Copy
UV: paramount.com/redeem or ultraviolet.flixster.com/paramount
DC: paramountdigitalcopy.com/startrekintodarkness
Code: Y7M9W7W739HM
 
I think it's against forum rules to post any codes outside of the Marketplace forum. Don't want anyone getting banned.

In the past few days I've bought a few from nannerberry with no problem. The codes didn't come instantly, but they came and I put them directly into iTunes, no problems.

I just bought one from UltraVideoz and when I clicked on the link they give you it said "this code has already been redeemed." I emailed them immediately and will update here when I hear something.
 
Well nobody is selling codes here. Should be fine.

Not sure if the Weeds code I posted earlier is still good or not.

Updated to add that they got back to me pretty quickly. They said the link should have given me an iTunes code, which they emailed to me in their reply. That worked perfectly. So +1 for taking care of me.
