About Us
What we're all about...
easyCinema Online DVD Rental is a highly personalised home entertainment service, offering you membership to the UK's ultimate DVD library. There are no hidden costs and, best of all, you'll never have to pay late fees again. Our objective is to deliver excellent service to our customers with a personal touch, which brings the social element back into home entertainment by offering fantastic selection, convenience and superb value.
- Fantastic Selection: choose from over 56,000 titles on DVD, from the newest releases to the oldest classics, world cinema, TV and everything in between.
- Superb Convenience: choose how many credits you want to buy and keep 1, 2 or 3 DVDs out at any time. You can even have your account automatically topped up when your credits are running low. Every DVD is delivered direct to your door via freepost, with a pre-paid envelope included for easy returns.
- No Late Fees: you can keep your DVDs out as long as you want and as soon as we receive one back, the next DVD is immediately dispatched for you to enjoy
- Value for Money: we offer a money back guarantee for the first 7 days; after that there is a simple flat-rate fee for each batch of credits, starting from as little as £7.96 for 4 credits. This works out at only £1.99 per DVD compared to the £3.11 you will pay on average for a single overnight rental on the high street (MRIB, Jan 2004)
- Safe & Secure Shopping: we use the latest technology and security features, as well as strict internal guidelines, to safeguard the privacy of your personal information from unauthorised access or improper use. We will always continue to enhance our security procedures as new technology becomes available
- Protecting Your Privacy: we will never rent or sell any of your personal information without your explicit consent and you will always have access to your account information. In addition when any personal information is transmitted, we use a secure server with a 128-bit SSL certificate
from Thawte
which encrypts all of your personal information. This encryption process ensures that the information you give us is protected against unauthorised use. Please see our Privacy Policy for further details

What our customers are saying...
"This is the best site I have ever used. I can spend hours just browsing! Your database of films is very comprehensive and you also have all the new releases. Finally something to challenge that dinosaur Blockbuster. Well done!"
"I'd like to say congratulations for launching a fantastic service which I love (I'm currently telling all my friends about the site)."
"I have two teenagers and they have cost me a fortune in late returned videos (the record so far is £72!) Thank you, thank you, thank you."
"I love that you notified me in the morning that movies were sent, and I found them in my post when I came home from work. It allowed me to plan the evening. Great timing!"
"Not being a driver and living rather out of town, this opens up a whole new aspect of entertainment to me, and at a good price - thank you. I will be telling every one about you."
