Just saw on X Box live that love film instant are offering 3 months for £1.99 before the price increases to the standard £4.99pm. See http://www.lovefilm.com/xbox199 for details. Seems like a good deal to me, a lot better than the standard 30 day free offer as it really lets you evaluate the service properly.
Anyway, after the first page where I choose user email and password it prompts me to reactivate my lovefilm account (I have been a member of the main rental service a number of times in the past). However, if I click reactivate it then prompts me for a gift code but if I enter the XBOX199 code for the 3 months at £1.99 it says the code is invalid.
At first I thought it was just linking to my account because I used the same email address but even using a different email address it still attempts to reactivate my account. It seems that (presumably because I cancelled recently) it doesn't want to give me this offer?
Is there anyway I can clear whatever cache they are using to recognise my account and force it to make a new account so I can take advantage of this offer? Or is there any other way around this problem?
