Why not boomerang rentals? Will try one of them, half term!
Due to a f up with card details being stolen they had to bring down the payment/sign up system... Which still isn't back up... Apparently end of next week it should be working, the service apparentally has gone down hill with poor turnaround times for recieving games unless it's an old unpopular game,
Was planning on going with them because it comes across as lovefilm when they use to have a games rental service,
Whereas paramount looks like it's run by one bloke in his basement in Wales, with a terrible logo, rubbish website and as I've mentioned before the itest way of selecting your games... Basically you have to email the guy what you want
That being said it's been a fabulous service and the turnaround time for recieving games has been spot on and in the end that's all that really matters, also his customer service is pretty good. I was going to switch to boomerang once the site went live because honestly I thought I wasn't going to receive anything from paramount... The sites got spelling mistakes and looks unprofessional, but the experience has been surprisingly good
I just signed up with paramount. No way I can log in and check my preferences, no confirmation or account details just a PayPal confirmation. I reckon you are the guy running paramount, send me my details now!
In the confirmation email he'll ask for a contact number so he can verify your billing address, just to help prevent fraud and people just keeping the games during the free trial and running off (deadeye >.>)
Couple of hours, I wasn't going to bother because like I said looks like a s brick, but there's no alternative at the moment
Also I have the theory that's it's one guy in his basement, maybe attic and judging by his company's customer service times

Pretty sure he's out clubbing with your cash at the moment
just don't worry about it till you get it, I'm primarily a pc gamer... Just that my friends won't splash out on a pc and since I CBa to pay for everything twice I decided renting was the best choice for me
If only every publisher released games like valve did with portal 2 where the console version came with a free steam key
Maybe one day
Maybe one day we can all be part of the master race and not have to discriminate against peasants.

I've signed up with boomerang, now that their site is back up

so far paramount has been faultless with getting games to me, but the simplicity of boomerangs site (can pick the games I want on my phone as well as holding a toddler) is winning me over, so I'll probably cancel with paramount.
