Scam Operator AVOID! Ordered two Box Sets which were never dispatched. Cancelled Order and was told that they have never taken money from a Credit Card, which was a lie. Have had to put matter in dispute with Credit Card company. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

Great selection of DVDs and very helpful I've used MovieMail for years and love the fabulous reviews on their site. They really know their stuff and promote really classy films that you wouldn't stumble across anywhere else. Their staff are very helpful and prices are very reasonable.

They cancel orders without refunding On both occasions I ordered from MoveMail, they cancelled either the whole order or 90% of it. Their excuse is "we are out of stock", despite it still being advertised as available on the website. However, they did not tell me this – they just removed the order from the outstanding orders page – no email, no paypal refund. I shouldn't have to chase up something like this if they cancel the buying contract. They were perfectly happy keeping the money, without sending anything. Last time the paypal refund failed because the funds at their bank did not clear! It was 10 days before I got my money back. My advice would be to shop elsewhere if at all possible – Amazon, Play.com, base.com, etc. If you must use them, use Paypal to give you some protection.

Moviemail was great - SimplyHE sucks Moviemail was great - they had such a wide stock, and though it could take a while, you would get your stuff. But I will never order from Simply Home Entertainment again. I live in Denmark and naturally assumed that I was still ordering from within the EU, as when I ordered from Moviemail. Turns out, they are now situated on Guernsey which apparently is not part of EU. I got a letter from the postal service in Denmark, that they are holding my package and I would have to pay 300 kr (app. 37 GBP) to get it. I called SimplyHE (expensive). They could not even see my order, but promised to call back. They did not. I then wrote, but they say, they can't help me or compensate me. I'm not going to pay, letting the package be sent back. I hope I will get my money back, we'll see.

The only destination for UK film lovers They had some major hiccups last year following a change in ownership, but MovieMail remains the best place to find out about world cinema and vintage films coming to DVD and Blu-ray in the UK. If you only like blockbusters then they're not for you, but if you love foreign films and off-the-beaten-track gems you'll love it.
