MoviePass (Unlimited Films in Theaters) Drops to $9.95 a Month
- Thread starter Expendable.
- Start date
Their Twitter is saying that they are removing / have removed that restriction. I had moviepass for a year and a half, and yeah, that restriction did suck even with the plethora of options... Luckily, there were work arounds, but that's no longer necessary.
They promised at least a year of $10/mo. Even if it goes back up to $35/mo, I'll likely keep so long as they keep the ability to watch the game movie multiple times.
If thats true and nobody (afaik) has received their "Your card has shipped" email I guess its gonna be at least another week, probably
Man, I was kind of hoping this wasn't the case. Still crossing my fingers that due to the volume of card requests and the servers still being shaky atp that the email is delayed and/or they're shipping out today.

Was hoping to use it this weekend, but doesn't look like it'll be arriving this week.
That's all I meant by premium is upcharge tickets.

Only email I received was a "welcome to movie pass" email that didn't even fully load up. Signed up within hours from when this thread was created.
Yep, same here. I want my damn card already lol.

If moviepass succeeds and they are paying the full ticket price, seems like it could just influence theaters to all just raise their prices really. If there is a huge surge in moviepass users coming to a theater..... why not raise your prices? Moviepass is paying the full price of the ticket. Kinda seems like the theater chains can screw over Moviepass if they want too

Oh, keep us updated because then that means mine should be here soon af
Is that the normal USPS app? Don't you have to put a tracking number to see your package?
Awesome! Didn't see it in my informed delivery app but hopefully means everyone will be getting theirs this week. Mind sharing where in the country you are?

Haha all that app does is show me mail I never get. Checks, junk, you name it. Pictures in app, nothing in box. USPS is no help either. Hoping it actually comes through because I got the image today too, as did my SO.
Also since people have asked: NYC, never got any emails from them. Not even when signing up.
Not too long ago they added a section and it shows you your more traditional pieces of mail like envelopes and stuff without tracking numbers. They must photograph all the mail as it goes through sorting and shows it in the app.

That's precisely what they do but it's a separate app, at least on iOS, called Informed Delivery.

Nothing from them in my Informed Delivery today, rats.
Did you ever get an email saying your card was on the way?
Nope just a confirmation email when I signed up.

Informed Delivery must not be available in my area. All i see in the app is a place to check tracking numbers.

Signed up. This'll get me to actually go to the theater. Was amazed to see my local theater is part of the plan.
Informed Delivery isn't available in my area. #notblessed
Yea, they said you had to wait for the card to come before activating.
Nice, appreciate it!

That doesnt address his question. They promised new sign ups will hold the $10 price for a year. They are not promising that people who sign up any time during the next 12 months will also get to come in at $10. The price can and likely will go up for new sign ups

Oh shit. What day did you sign up? The 15th or 16th?

Exactly.
If you want the $10 price, sign up now. The press release even said capacity was limited.

Damn wasn't expecting a card until the end of the week at the earliest. Hope mine comes soon!
15th pretty early in the day. My dad signed up later on Tuesday so I'll be curious to see if his comes in the mail today too.

I signed up late afternoon Tuesday. Praying for your dad 🙏🙏🙏
Same! Just signed up for Informed Delivery and......
no envelope from MoviePass today
So what's the next step? If I go to movie pass card under the app all I get is "No reviews available". How do you connect the card to your account?

I think you have to be near a movie theater for everything to start kicking into gear? Im not sure though.

Their used to be, they removed it. HOWEVER, they're having a lot of issues with the service since they went from <20K subscribers to hundreds of thousands so YMMV.

Goddamn it I'm gonna revert this week to my 7 year old self, running to the mailbox every 5 minutes hoping that TODAY is the day that my megablox car I got from eating two boxes of cereal MoviePass card arrives
Whoever does get your card, please go into excruciating detail on what you did with it once you got it and how it was linking it and using it with MoviePass. I need to live through you.

This USPS app is one of the most privacy-invasive apps I've ever tried to use. They accessed my credit report and wanted me to answer questions about my (wife's) car loan. I tried again later and it asked me questions about my mortgage.
This so much.
You have to activate it on the website. Login and click activate card.

Lol. Have you ever had to verify your identity before? This is the same test that they use when signing up for utilities, among other things.
Would you prefer they show your mail to a random person who says they live at your address?

The card works at pretty much any theater from what I can gather. Have you checked your ZIP code with this tool? https://coryjb.github.io/moviepass/
If a theater is listed on that site, the card will work.
