    I have been waiting for my free code for Red Box streaming for over a month now.

    • Mackenzie Whitelaw

      Good luck

    I and several friends have been screwed by the redbox, what happened is that the machine did not register the movie returned and because there is no receipts you are stuck with the 28$ charge on your credit card for a movie you returned. I suggest checking out movies from your library instead.

      We rent 2 videos every weekend and have never had any issues with them. We always get a digital receipt emailed to us upon return as well.

    • Sara

      There is a receipt, it’s emailed. They didn’t receive it?

    • Tilla Ham

      they email a receipt upon the rental and renturn of every single solitary transaction you make with them. In 3 years of weekly use, I have never had an issue with red box.

      • tracy

        yes,and everyone has the option to put in an email,i usually dont,but i guess its a good idea so you can have that email in case they do charge you,but you dont have to put in the email,i think some others like me,say naw i wont do it,then they get mad when they get a charge

    FYI: I tried to use the $0.50 off coupon online, but got a message saying that it has already been used.

    • Sara

      In the past, the promo codes haven’t worked online, only at the kiosks.

    • Amber

      The only way to do the 50 cents off online is if you’ve received an email from Redbox and click directly on the link in the email. Most promo codes do not work online, so sign up for their email and/or texts to get codes.

      • jessbees

        Thanks for clarifying that.

    • Carol

      I got the same message. Code already redeemed. No biggie. It’s still a great deal. And I love to reserve my movie ahead of time. This way I know exactly which kiosk to get the desired movie. My son is much happier when the movie he wants is actually in the kiosk!

  4. Steph

    I LOVE using Redbox!

    They send me free codes about once a month. The movies are cheaper than any store around here. I have an account set up and IMMEDIATELY get a confirmation that they received my movie back. That helps me avoid the issue from Mrs. S above.

    I have no issues with them at all. Love, love!

  5. Steph

    I forgot to mention that they can be returned to any Redbox! To me, that’s almost the best feature, besides the free codes they send.

  6. Gwen

    If you are a Bzzagent will give u a 1-month trial of redbox instant streaming and 4 free promo codes.

    • Kelley

      That’s what I’m doing now. Do you know how to use the 4 codes? I can’t find them on the website, other than where it just lists that I have credits, but no codes with it.

      • Jay

        You have to go to Locations on top left -> Enter Zip Code -> Select title -> Reserve.

  7. Cara

    These codes always work for us — haven’t paid for a Redbox ever.
    DVDONME
    BREAKROOM

    Haven’t tried them in a month or so but worth a shot as they have worked over and over for us:)

    • tracy

      they do work but it can only work once per credit card

  8. kristyn

    Love redbox and discount codes! Thanks for sharing the info 🙂

    I signed up for REDBOX instant thru BZZ Agent. You must have a VERY consistent upload speed or the movies buffer constantly which makes viewing impossible. Also all the newer movies and episodes of TV shows are locked from viewing so the “unlimited movie streaming” is stuff that’s been available elsewhere for a while. Netflix has REDBOX Instant beat by a mile. No matter what your upload speed Netflix adjusts their stream so that your movie/TV viewing is effortlessly smooth. You will be unable to use a WII or PlayStation to access online viewing at REDBOX Instant as they have no app. available to use. Good Luck!

    • Kelley

      Yeah, that’s what I’m doing too! The movie selection is not great; we also have netflix and it’s much, much better! I would like to use the 4 dvd credits though, do you know how to use them? The only list I found on my account is just a list that I have the credits, but I can’t actually use them, idk.

      • Rochelle

        Look under help in your red box acct that you set up. It tells you how to use them at checkout at the kiosk.

  10. Parker

    As much as my kids and I used to love hitting up these kiosks for games and movies, lately, we’ve been moving away from them. The kiosks used to seem super convenient, and like such a great deal, but then a DISH coworker of mine told me about this a service called Blockbuster @Home, by DISH. Through it, we get movie channels, thousands of titles via streaming, and home delivery of DVDs and games. Best of all, it only costs me a third of what I’d been paying for Netflix, Gamefly, and the kiosks!

    • Mackenzie Whitelaw

      Wow!!! I wished I could do that like you did.

  11. Mackenzie Whitelaw

    This is way to hard for me to go on red box to watch my favorite movies.

  12. Sondra Grosky

    I was recommended this web site by my cousin. I am now not sure whether or not this submit is written by way of him as no one else know such certain approximately my difficulty. You are amazing! Thank you!|
