  Is he not paying a monthly subscription on top of all this? They’re getting their money back pretty quickly.

    I doubt that he’s paying a subscription for a single movie, besides he got refunded 5 extra bucks, which amounts to at least something

      So now all of the movies to OP’s name have a chance to get removed. How great /s

    Again, he got a full refund AND £5. He lost nothing of value.

    He would have to pay a monthly fee regardless of these events in order to watch the movie he bought. Now he doesn’t have to, since he can’t.

      I suppose you’re right.

      I think in supposed to double down when I’m wrong on the internet… “How dare you make such outlandish claims! I’d Bezos doesn’t send the user £1M plus a ticket for a space trip, then the user shouldn’t settle!”

      Was that good? 🤣

  Are you fine with me taking anything from your home as long as I pay you the purchase price + £5? Some of us we assign greater value to some of the things we own than the purchase price.

    Lol. “Taking from your home”. Last time I checked, my home didn’t have a monthly access fee for me to use the things I bought.

    Now he is freed from that requirement as well. A triple win.

      What are you talking about? Amazon’s digital video purchases don’t require any monthly access fee. He paid £5.99 with the idea that he’ll get to keep it indefinitely, just like a physical DVD. I don’t get why you think it is ok for a seller to revert the sale of a digital item at any time for just the purchase price but (I presume?) not other sales?

        Ignoring all the rest, the issue is simply that it was never bought. He bought a licence to access it. If he expected to “keep” anything, he was an idiot.

        I don’t think it’s okay, but if I’m dumb enough to waste money on this stuff, it’s nice to get something extra for my stupidity.
