    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Got an email that they shipped my next DVD on Monday. Arrived on Friday. I am about 25 miles from the shipping location. Anyone believes they really shipped on Monday? To add insult to injury the Blu-ray arrived scratched as if someone tried to clean it with a scouring pad. They don't even QA...

    Right now BD has a huge edge over streaming and as long as broadband in the US continues to be controlled by a small number of companies that have no incentive to improve speed and lower cost I don't see it changing soon. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

    Blu-ray is still better than any streaming available today so I hope they continue with DVD by mail. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

    In my case it seems BB decided not to email me anymore. In the last two weeks I have received my DVDs at a rate of one a week but no more notifications for receiving nor shipping. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

    I can get no more than 1 DVD a week from BB. Best case scenario is 1 day each way. BB doesn't ship the day they receive the DVD, only next day. They don't ship on Saturday and Sunday. It's very hard if not nearly impossible to get more than one DVD a week. What is there to throttle? Their...

    Been in your shoes before. In my case I notified BB that their DVD has not arrived so you can imagine how unhappy I was with their message. I ended up calling customer service and they immediately shipped me a replacement disc. Both arrived together... Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Three weeks ago I contacted BB/Dish support via email about the slowness and lo and behold my service improved substantially. Now BB receives the DVD the day after I mail it to them and ship the next one the same day. I don't know if it has anything to do with my complaint and whether this...

    Mine closed few months back. The local video store is still going strong but somehow BB couldn't survive. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    It's not the distance. I live about 25 miles from the DC and my turn around time is about a week. I normally get the disc the day after I receive the shipping notification from BB so I don't think it's the USPS to blame. I wish I could stick a transmitting GPS in one of these envelopes to see...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    And after few times you hit the problem button they no longer send you a replacement disc immediately and you have wait for them to receive your copy first. Once I returned a disc and when after a week I didn't get an acknowledgment email I hit the problem button. They refused to send me my next...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    If it weren't "free" for me as a Dish subscriber I would have dropped them like a rock. Latest example: dropped the BRD in the mail last Tuesday. Received an email from BB only today (Monday) that they received it. Still no email about the next disc being shipped so best case is that it will be...

    With so many BB stores closing, distribution center closing, and slow DVD delivery I have to wonder if Dish is trying to cut its loses and get rid of BB. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    My experience with nf was very good. I had only one at a time but in most cases I was able to get 2 dvds per week. With BB I can get one a week at most. The big difference between the two is that nf ships you a dvd on the same day they receive your return while BB ships the next day. Nf receives...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Delivery really slowed down. I dropped my disc into the mailbox Sunday. Received an email from Blockbuster that they received it Wednesday and a shipment email on Thursday. If I am lucky enough to receive the disc on Saturday it will be a 1 week turn around time. Not good! And because they...
