-----------------------------UPDATE 4:15pm 14th April: READ IN FULL BEFORE ORDERING------------------------------------------

Don't have time to do a posh write-up of these updated notes and instructions, but the latest info crudely and in brief:

-This offer is still valid and the guide attached still works, but if at the final stage you can't enter your policy number on Meerkat Movies, you need to message CtM direct via the website. People report that they receive a response confirming eligibility, and are then getting access to their codes within approx 48 hours.
It would appear that Compare the Market's continued obligation is to honour the deal, but that they have created this extra step in the mean time to slow the number of cheap claims being made.

-The attached guide is for ERV insurance, but if you find it's unavailable, any provider will do. Price varies.

-Be sure you haven't already purchased something from Compare the Market, as your Meerkat Movies membership may already have begun, even if you haven't started claiming voucher codes. If you're unsure just sign in to CtM and try to access Meerkat Movies.

-Situation is fluid, check recent posts first!

end of update-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step by step guide
Wrote this earlier for some email pals, please vote up to top comments if it's useful.
Big thanks to OP! :smiley:

1. Register a free account at http://www.comparethemarket.com/
-Top right; 'Sign in'
-'Forgotten Password'
-Add your email address to create account
-Verify and log in

2. Find the cheapest insurance offer available on the site
-'Let's start comparing..' 'Travel Insurance'
-Travelling UK, for one day, just me, no extras.
-Search

3. Choose 'ERV Insurance' cover for £1.37
-Redirect to their site, pay by Visa/Mastercard
-Receive your insurance docs by email
-Copy your policy number "ERVCTMXXXXX"

4. Claim your first cinema voucher code at http://www.comparethemarket.com/
-Direct link: https://meerkat-movies.comparethemarket.com/membership
-Field one, choose 'ERV'
-Field two, paste your policy number
-Done! Log on each week to receive a new code.

------------------------------

Why not just do it the free way?
Better to pay the £1.37 to guarantee your voucher codes for the year, since Meerkats will almost certainly withdraw the offer from those who have fabricated policy numbers.
(thanks Chanchi32)

Why can't I see a policy offer for £1.37?
It seems there is a variation in price for some users, £2-4, which may be based on age and/or location, or availability. Just choose the next cheapest option - it won't affect your Meerkat Movies eligibility.

The Meerkat Movies page seems to be down, is the deal expired?
The site has been down a couple of times since this morning, but at the time of writing has been back up within a few minutes. As long as the offer is still appearing on the main ComparetheMarket site, it shouldn't affect your eligibility, and if you've already paid for insurance you will merely have to visit later to claim your tickets.

no need for purchase :-) ... I entered random numbers and all worked well!!

FAQ: -
What does my insurance cover? Nothing except 2 for one cinema trips on Wednesday's
Does it include snow sports? No it doesn't.
What if my luggage is misplaced? You lose it and we do nothing.
If I can't go on holiday due to health issues am I covered? No, are you some kind of idiot. The answer to this an most other questions are in the first question above.

Heat for the effort bud!!

Need to setup a travel insurance business via comparethemeerkat for £1.36 travel policies

Heat added

I cant go today, here is my code 2313 7219

Check out SJ's meerkat code trading thread as well

http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/meerkat-movies-2-for-1-cinema-codes-official-trading-thread-2169913

Goodfind

I did this last month, but it says my membership will expire after 1 month (I have 3 days left). Maybe you need to buy a similar policy every month (still a great deal) or find the cheapest possible annual policy?

no need for purchase :-) ... I entered random numbers and all worked well!!

How long does it take for the meerkat code to come through?
The travel insurance docs were instant but nowt else?
Just wondered :wink:

Thanks I just signed up and activated my "MEERKAT MOVIES" thanks to the OP :smile:

Hi, Just to confirm mines it says on my online screen it's live for 12 months, from my knowledge Meerkat Movies went live from 6th April? So anyone doing it before may of had an issue, but going forwards it's live for 12 months!

After you've paid etc, login to your account, go through the claim Meerkat Movies and follow the quick and easy instructions, shouldn't take too long :smiley:

Had to take travel insurance out, had to walk into the 99p store :/ , Awesome find :smiley:

Just done this, brilliant find OP! £2.74 for 12 months Meerkat Movies and a UK trip I have this month :smiley:

cannot find for !.37

This deal will get as hot as an egg. Good find OP!

Confirmed working, got my code and membership for a year. Thanks op.

Great idea worked for me thanks

Got it for £2.65 not 1.37 but still very good. Cheers op heat added

I'm surprised they're allowing travel insurance to be eligible as they never used to let you claim a meerkat for a travel or pet insurance policy, I know I tried lol. Great deal though.

Thanks OP! Got is for £1.37 :smiley: HOT

Just did it myself. Super hot!

Hot, just done it. Thanks bud. :smiley:

Did this earlier. Just to confirm there's no Pizza Express deal like EE/Orange used to have?

Worked for me.

Paid £1.37, put policy number into https://meerkat-movies.comparethemarket.com and "Your MEERKAT MOVIES membership will expire on the 8th April 2016."

Brilliant find. I love this site!

code for today if anyone wants it 2946 4042

I love you

Signed up for £1.37 - great find!

Purchased, thanks OP.

Brilliant find. Just signed up. If you are a Cineworld Unlimited member, you can get 2 for 1 on the ticket. So 2 tickets for free (well not including the monthly Unlimited fee)

can i use different email addresses to get more than one?

Good post OP

Worked perfectly. Thanks!

Great found, thanks OP, ordered!

outstanding, take a bow son

This requires me to have someone to go to the cinema with so I'm afraid I'm out.

Can't go today

3804 6964

Heat added, fantastic find and it works :smile::D:D:D:D

Insurance booked. :-D Smashing deal.

Signed up! Heat added

Thanks :smiley:

Didn't realise I had taken my car insurance out last year with them so have 14 days left to use lol

:smiley:

Awesome stuff, thanks :smile:

Worked a treat. Cheers OP

Got the ERV Lite Policy for £1.37 - Cheers OP ;-)

Worked a treat for me. Thank you OP for that. Heat added.

Cheers mate :smiley:

Worked a treat thanks, have some heat!

Amazing deal, I got it for the £1.37 I think you have to be under 39 years old to get it for that price.

Hot, thanks!

Great find. Thank you OP!!

Someone posted this trick before when it first got announced. I wonder how long it will be before they get wise and start requesting a minimum spend... Although on the other hand their policy sales will go up anyway!

I'm surprised this hasn't got hotter already. A death star cookie jar may well be cool, but this is a steal.

Thanks, just received confirmation, 2 for 1 expires 8th April 2016. Heat

would you get a free meerkat with this policy

I get free cinema tickets every week with my life insurance, but this is still a useful tip. Heat.

Here's my code. 5500 0278

These codes people give out - are they one use only? Don't understand how this works... do you get a new code each week or for the full year?

Sorry I have never uses insurance sites.. i followed the instructions and got £1.37... i Dont get it if you only buy a single day policy wont ur meerkat 2 for 1 expire?

marry me op!!!!

Does this work with my cineworld unlimited card like the EE one?

Only cost me £1.37

Thanks for this, just signed up for £1.37 and 2 for 1 movies until April 8th next year. Have some heat!

thanks

I done this 2 weeks ago and it works spot on. Done it twice so 4 of us can go for price of 2.

You can also use the codes on line now with no booking fee at the odeon. Make sure you have two odeon accounts though, as its one code per account a week. And book kids together and adults together to maximise savings.

Fab deal. Should have bought shares in Erv as well, they will be making lots of money today! :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you OP. With this deal and the discount I get on cinema tickets through my work date night for me and Mrs Elbow for £5.99. Heat added...

This is amazing! cheers :smile:

All worked smoothly. Thanks OP!

"how is this thread still allowed isn't it covered by the original post 2 and a bit weeks ago"
-The original thread was for the launch of the 2 for 1 offer, this is around buying a £1.37 insurance policy to benefit from the deal
- Just scanned the original thread and yes there was reference to buying travel insurance however this is quite hidden in comments, not in the main OP and was stated much later on. I remember when this was posted and only seems more recent comments confirming that low cost travel insurance worked so I personally was not aware of this
- The post is obviously benefitting a lot of people given the comments and voting

"there is a cheaper way just request a credit card and you get the codes"

- yes you could get a credit card, however you would probably be better going via quidco/TCB to get the cashback
- not everyone will be accepted for a credit card and a decline could impact your credit record and ability to get credit in the future

Does this work with pizza express as well as for the cinema?

If i have a cineworld unlimited card, can i take anyone along witih me for free by using the provided code through this?

Thanks op - nice and easy to sign up.

Did this the other day... Found the same information here

http://www.becleverwithyourcash.com/meerkat-movies-how-to-get-a-year-of-2-for-1-cinema-tickets/

Amazing if you discovered this all by yourself OP...

Can someone who has this check for me the closest participating cinema to PA16 for me please..I can't check myself before I purchase..thanks in advance

Cracking find. Won't be long til they cotton onto this (e.g. enforce a minimum spend), so get in there quickly!

Genius. Thanks a bunch lad!

Just got myself a years worth a free movies for £1.37, awesome bargain thanks op<3<3<3

To be honest I did - I was looking for a days Insurance as going on Alton Towers on the 1st May/stopping over, then told my mates who did the same and thought it be best to share with the HUKD members as they've helped me out alot!

Heat thanks, Just bought a 1 day uk travel policy for £1.37 logged back in signed up with my policy number now have downloaded the app. Easy. Will save us at least twice a month especially with it being tues or wed :-)

Get 2 for 1 cinema tickets
To get MEERKAT MOVIES 2 for 1 cinema tickets log into your account or download the app.

Well seeing as Cineworld are supporting this 2 for 1 deal I can't see why not, I guess I'll find out next week.

just signed into my account never purchased anything went onto meerkat movies clicked on life insurance chose asda entered random numbers and have now got it for free :smiley:

i believe you can...as you've already paid for your ticket(s) in advance and the FREE one is..well FREE

No need to buy anything, just download the app, press activate, choose travel insurance and ERV as the company. Put any number in and it will activate anyway ;-)

INFERNO!

My code for today if anyone needs one 4322 2885

Cheers OP, got the policy and have been told i get the BOGOF codes until Apr 2016. If anyone wants my code, pm me

There's gonna be a hell of a lot of people insured in the UK for one day only

I can confirm that i just purchased the policy, downloaded the app and then made a booking through the code on the cineworld's website with my unlimited card and i was able to do so. Happy days!

Do I have to log onto CTM website each time to get the code? I don't think I can get the app.

are you sure? I just entered random numbers and it gave me an actual CODE and says my meerkat movies membership will expire on April 2016. Even if they check, it already gave me the code to use at the cinema. :smiley:

I can see a "policy must be at least £10 in value" clause coming soon from them :wink:

Just put in random numbers and got my code :smile:
Can't go today so my code is 5109 0445 for anyone that wants it

Well done sir! All done for me £1.37 and already told everyone at work!

Worked without purchase..heat added

Very hot! Quick before they stop it lol

Scorchio!!! Fab find wonder how long until it's pulled.

HEAT!! Thanks so much OP

Rubbish, it was all over the original thread about buying travel insurance for those that could be bothered to read it. Seems to me you've interpreted the rules how you want so that those who couldn't be bothered to read it can benefit. Which by the way I commend but funny how the mods are quick enough to slap deals down when they are similar to others or say they should be merged etc!!! This could lead to anarchy!

Yawn ...

anyone know if Vue cinemas are taking part?. heat given but sadly no point if the local Vue cinema not doing it

I wonder if they'll retrieve this offer due to it working without a valid purchase. Thanks for sharing, hot!

Got for £1.37; nice one

No purchase either. Class.

Thanks SeaneyB.. you are right.. my local Vue should be covered as well. Appreciate your help

Excellent... Thanks for sharing ..

what are meerkat movies? A new cinema chain?

???Can I use this deal at the omniplex cinemas???

To use the code, can you just show the weekly codes on the phone, or do you actually have to print it out?

Got a policy for £2.74 thanks op but i bought another policy to claim a toy but it doest let me. Now ive lost another £2.74 can i ask for a refund?

Might be better just to do a purchase, though i have done it now withour getting travel insure so now cannot chase the purchase number I put it

Harrow Vue charging £9.49 for 1 adult ticket.. sheesh how times have
changed since my last cinema trip lol. Better find someone who will split the cost of the ticket with me. :smiley:

Decided to pay £1.37 for it just to avoid any unwanted surprises later. I spend more than that on my morning coffee, so best to be safe and buy it legitimately rather than be a tight git and regret it later if they cancel. Scorching hot deal.

Great, got my 12months

Cheers

Cineworld website says it will work with their unlimited card. Thanks OP.

Purchased but ain't received an email yet.

Thanks great deal £1.37 :smiley:
My husband says we are already with Comparethemarket anyway :confused: Lol never mind

Mine worked! I'm not going cinema today so if anybody wants a code just message me and I'll send you it :smiley:

brilliant worked perfect thanks!

How do you make an account? It only gives me the option to sign in with them, not to register to make an account. :disappointed:

Make sure you check if its not already activated .. I bought car insurance in November and it was already activated :-) thanks OP for a cracking deal though.

tried to sighn my oh up and it has linked the 2 emails together???? anyone know why

have a code for anyone who would like one :smiley: - 0959 8517

Not got the code. The rules have changed. Has to be car insurance or energy swap

Is this just 2 for 1 or multiples? e.g. can you get 4 for the price of 2 tickets ?

I'm not going tonight but you can use my code 4518 7962

What cinemas are eligible for the 2 for 1? is Cineworld? because thats the only decent one in Middlesbrough

useful! Cheers OP

23365476 is valid today :smiley:

Managed to get the deal for £1.37! Absolute bargain! Thanks OP!

Got mine sorted at lunchtime for £1.37. Code already received. Thanks OP! Heat added. :laughing:

Any code please

Awesome thanks OP :smiley:

Cheers £1.37 worth it for a years worth of 2 for 1 movies :smiley:

Why are people still paying £1.37?? Look at Post number 142!!
Brill thanks.

0193 7501

valid for today

£2.74 is the most recent lowest I'm getting, how are people doing this for free?

Because foxymeister if they check your policy is not legit the could cancel your movie subscription whereas I have bought a policy so they won't cancel it...

Select 'Other' instead of 1 week/month/whatever in trip length... then select the day after the start date of the policy in the calendar. Hey presto, £1.37!

Its one day uk travel insurance only... May depend on your age and postcode if you're not getting £1.37.... I made myself 10 years younger ;-) The company that's offering the cheap policy must be thinking that's a lot of short uk trips being booked!

Fair deal though and I rarely visit the cinema and still need a mate !

works a treat see comment #142 . got code , booked for 2 people for F&F7 @ 7.30 tonight £9.64

£1.89 for me, cheers!

smartass! Book online.

can these codes be used at any cinema???

Which cinemas is this for? Please tell me Odeon!

I've looked all over the site and I can't find a single cinema being mentioned? For such a big promotion, you would think they would plaster it all over the site! Can you link me to where it says Cineworld only?

move to freebies

heres one for the first to see/use this: 5459 1476

Can see ctm cancelling a lot of accounts soon.

Excellent deal, OP.

Has anyone thought of getting a credit card instead? No purchase necessary.

Why would someone post wrong information without checking? This took me about 1 minute to find out. Odeon Meerkat

It's both Cineworld and Odeon cinemas. If you prefer Odeon, The link here: Odeon Cinemas Just put your postcode/town in the location search for your nearest one then click on the 'View Details' button it will tell you it has the Meerkat Movies available in that cinema in a large box on that page.

Got it for £1.37! Better than scamming and risk losing it in the near future.

well i know it works on showcase as they've listed it on their site. But **** from CTM to not list the cinemas themselves

try this from earlier post, was mine but cant go :smiley: 5459 1476

cant guarantee it hasnt been used thoough

thxs op :smiley:

what cinerma chains are on this ?

Exactly. As somebody already posted earlier, it is pretty pointless putting a code up on here so publicly as it can only be used once and there will be a lot of disappointed people getting refused when they try to use it. It's best to offer it and allot it on a first come first served basis through the private message service on here.

aye cos ppl will put fake codes aswell :disappointed:

Just a quick question
How can I use a code posted here

Just came from cinemas for daughter birthday and it was expensive lol. Thanks for this. Just signed up

That was me :smiley::smiley::smiley:

Fantastic deal thanks so much for posting OP! Followed your instructions, worked perfectly!

bought the £1.37 travel insurance, logged on to my account and it says as I bought car insurance 9 months ago, I still have 3 months worth of 2for1 and activate now...


anybody found a way round this so I can get the 12 months and not 3?

I claimed a meerkat toy too

Comment

Thanks very much
Worked as it should be

£1.37 worked for me, just tried the MM code with a cineworld unlimited card on their website and there is a 50p transaction fee. So although you can use it alongside a cineworld unlimited card, there is a minor fee for the 'free' ticket

3562 8040 if anyone needs a code....

In what cinemas can you use this in?

Just got the £1.37 insurance for a 2 day trip I am going on anyway. I have now got 12 months free. Awesome deal.

The app is really good.
Purchased the insurance for £1.37, so met the T&Cs.

On my app, when I go to find a participating cinema, it displays all the old Orange Wednesday ones.
In my case, my local Odeon, Vue and Light cinemas.

:smiley: Bonus, very Hot thanks.

works in my local cineworld and showcase.

I'm pretty sure everyone who is creating an account and entering a fake policy following the instructions earlier will be found out. And given you've had to give them personal information to get set up, I'd say that's a pretty stupid risk to take too.

Personally, I just bought travel insurance through the site for £2.13 for a legitimate UK business trip next week - so my purchase is all legal and above board, and it validated my Meerkat Movies membership to 8th April 2016.

They will probably scan the supplied references and remove all these accounts manually.

I paid the £1.37 for a valid policy, happy days. :smiley:

Brilliant find mate. £1.37 is worth it. Heat

Not sure if anyone has posted this already as too much to read I got a credit card, no cost to me, 12 months movies

5166 1860........dont need if anyone going tonite

I bought some travel insurance but it used an old home insurance policy and I only ended up with 21 days of movies. Hopefully after that the travel insurance will kick in? Anyone know?

good deal needed travel insurance anyway

Bought my car insurance last year but the app refuses to acknowledge my policy number is valid (irritating as some people seem to be able to use a random number). Maybe it's because they've already sent me 2 meerkats?

Thanks OP...what a deal.

Anyone who wants a code for for today: 2437 7581

Thanks OP! No purchase required.

Very very big shout out to the finders of this deal.

Best bargain of 2015. (Yet that is still another 8 months to go)

Following the op's instructions, they want £4.17 for a day. Am I doing something wrong, or is this one of the penalties of ageing. I'm 72, my wife is 68.

Just hope putting in fake policy numbers / posting daily code doesn't prematurely bring and end to this promo (as I've used it several times, and I only used them when renewing house insurance to get the toy!)

Very cool, very easy, will use it, thanks.
0950 7352

Boom. Just followed the guide to create a random ERV quote and worked a treat. Thanks Ezrar !!

Thanks

"keep your age under 38 and one night only- you don't have to give correct age as you aren't using the insurance"
Thanks for that 94jdh, sorted. Younger member of family now looking forward to (insured!) trip.

This worked for me £1.37 as a 42 year old. heat and appreciation added.

Thanks a mil!!
Super deal... Will go nicely with my unlimited card!!

awesome find thanks OP! :smiley:

You plonker, Rodney!

Thanks a lot. Just done now. Wish I'd seen it earlier as today now I've been to the cinema and played full whack. Anyway, got this for the next year so all good!!!

Brilliant - just did the deed

Done! Thanks OP x

Excellent

brilliant. Cheers

glad to see everyone finding this useful! the only issue with creating a fake one is they could cancel your account etc and for £1.37 I think its worth it rather then the hassle of potentially getting your account cancelled. :smiley: enjoy the movies guys and girls! oh and everyone else put any young age - doesn't have to be real as your not claiming on the insurance anyway!

Trying to buy 2 seperate credit cards saying invalid ???? Nowt wrong with my cards. Mind u in Spain at mo using wifi.

Wish I could've taken advantage of this but, as I'm partially deaf and need subtitles, any subtitled films (of which there are very few!) are shown on a Sunday or Monday! :neutral_face: Ah well, heat added anyway!

Im buying shares in this ERV firm as they are probably gonna go through the roof.

Amazing find

hot, thanks op, grabbed it before the pesky meerkats revoke this cheap method, although I hope the cinema doesn't now get super busy because of it!!!

Super hot OP! 3 days of cheap movies! Half price Mondays at Odeon and 2 for 1 Tuesday/Wednesday. Let's say weekends price hikes are a thing of the past!

Forgot to say, opted to buy. For the price of a coke at the pub or to have the hassle of account potentially being cancelled, it was a no brainer!!

So is the consensus that it will most likely be revoked tomorrow? I'm a bit confused at the 2500 heat if that's the case.

I would recommend buying the insurance as the likelihood of your membership being cancelled is very high.

I just purchased this at £1.37. Thank you to the OP for posting such a good deal.

<3

50p

Comment

You can use it in store without a booking fee though.

So for the unlimited card booking there is no transaction cost?

can someone help me, do I just purchase travel insurance to anywhere and I will receive 2for1?

Sweet deal. Many thanks op. £2.35 well spent. All activated OK as well

Anyone know if this can be used at Curzon cinemas?

Free

great find.i paid £1.37 - definitely worth it to avoid the risk of cancellation of the 'free' policy.

Hi, if we bought the policy do we really need to travel ?

Thanks, I entered any random 5 digit number and it worked saying expiry 2016 in April

If you have brought insurance from them in the past year I think you will get it any way, I just logged on to my compare the market account and it said as I brought house insurance 4 months ago I have 8 months of Meerkat 2 for1 movies

What cinema is this for cineworld?

So - at least for the Odeon - you have to turn up and pay on arrival with this? Someone mentioned that's why there's no point publically releasing your code (no-one will know who used it until you turn up).

What's the chances of having very poor seats (right in the corner) or sold out completely after a 20 minute car journey on a Tuesday/Wednesday? Would be a tad annoying! It's £11.50 in my local per ticket anyway!

Thanks OP I did not know they did one day insurance and bonus about the movies site , is there a lot on there pls?

Amazing deal in the long run. Thank you so much.

Can you get 4 tickets for the price of two - i think that the answer is no but wanted to double check?

Correct, just a 50p charge for the extra ticket

That's next weeks VIP sorted then :smiley:

Thanks

Its £3 a ticket in Worthing on Mondays and Wednesdays. Shame they are not part of meerkat offers lol

The cheapest price I could get was £2.10 but still definitely worth it! Thanks!

Either way they posted it here first. That's all that matters... Look at that heat!!!

Thanks! I bought a policy a month or so ago and just used those details. hope my meerkat still arrives too :disappointed:

Just open a free credit card to get meerkat movies.

Good find ordered

If you're reading this, please vote this post up. The info in Top Comment posts above is now out of date. Thanks!

-----------------------------UPDATE 4:15pm 14th April: READ IN FULL BEFORE ORDERING------------------------------------------

Don't have time to do a posh write-up of these updated notes and instructions, but the latest info crudely and in brief:

-This offer is still valid and the guide attached still works, but if at the final stage you can't enter your policy number on Meerkat Movies, you need to message CtM direct via the website. People report that they receive a response confirming eligibility, and are then getting access to their codes within approx 48 hours.
It would appear that Compare the Market's continued obligation is to honour the deal, but that they have created this extra step in the mean time to slow the number of cheap claims being made.

-The attached guide is for ERV insurance, but if you find it's unavailable, any provider will do. Price varies.

-Be sure you haven't already purchased something from Compare the Market, as your Meerkat Movies membership may already have begun, even if you haven't started claiming voucher codes. If you're unsure just sign in to CtM and try to access Meerkat Movies.

-Situation is fluid, check recent posts first!

end of update-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Search

3. Choose 'ERV Insurance' cover for £1.37
-Redirect to their site, pay by Visa/Mastercard
-Receive your insurance docs by email
-Copy your policy number "ERVCTMXXXXX"

4. Claim your first cinema voucher code at http://www.comparethemarket.com/

-Field one, choose 'ERV'
-Field two, paste your policy number
-Done! Log on each week to receive a new code.

------------------------------

Why not just do it the free way?
Better to pay the £1.37 to guarantee your voucher codes for the year, since Meerkats will almost certainly withdraw the offer from those who have fabricated policy numbers.
(thanks Chanchi32)

Why can't I see a policy offer for £1.37?
It seems there is a variation in price for some users, £2-4, which may be based on age and/or location, or availability. Just choose the next cheapest option - it won't affect your Meerkat Movies eligibility.

The Meerkat Movies page seems to be down, is the deal expired?
The site has been down a couple of times since this morning, but at the time of writing has been back up within a few minutes. As long as the offer is still appearing on the main ComparetheMarket site, it shouldn't affect your eligibility, and if you've already paid for insurance you will merely have to visit later to claim your tickets.

I got it for £1.37 yesterday (thanks op!), I went to the odeon and used the code last night. I just checked my receipt and they charged me £1.50 for 'ctm'...

Not working for me either...

Working now....kind of.

Might start a new website - compare-the-webservers.com

Anyone else having problems activating the movies?
Made my £1.37 purchase but after pressing 'activate membership' on the website i just get a blank screen (tried on 2 different browsers), and when i try on the android app, i get to the part where i enter the policy number, but then get the message "Sorry, to get meerkat movies membership you need to have made a qualifying purchase....."

Game over

Looks like the site only accepts cover searches in years for the question:

How long would you like your cover to last?

And guidance says to enter at least 5 years.

I would guess this is likely, just like you only could claim a meerkat toy with certain policies (i.e. not the £1.37 ones). The movies 2for1 deal is also applicable to any comparethemarket policies taken out in the past 12 months so you could genuinely use an old policy to get it for free and have a clear conscious lol.

me, I just banged in any old number. i do have other policies I could fall back on if they block my codes at a later date.

Well, thats £1.37 down the drain :disappointed:

Screen print of the qualifying products just in case it's needed, I've messaged them informing them of the error and asking how am i to proceed in order to get my movies activated.

What does the insurance everyone is getting cover ? Just curious

If you bought the £1.37 policy, that qualifies... No minimum value is specified in the T&Cs. Screenshot everything, Baldrick.

hmmm not sure what i did, but persistence paid off and got my code for next week :smiley:

Mines generating codes for next week already off the £1.37 purchase so seems like it will work for the year

indeed, deal is still on... just about!

So do I have to go through the same process every time I want a new code?

Hi I am having an issue bookign Cinderalla online at Cineworld for next Wed. When I select 2 tickets and then add my code, it does not reduce the price but instead an entry appears for meerket movies at a cost of 50p. I really do not understand what is going on?? Anyone had a similar issue?

Also when I try Odeon instead I get this
We're sorry, but we're having technical issues validating this voucher. Please try again.
Simon

Understood re the booking fee, however the tickets still show as full price, is the price only adjusted at checkout?

Worked for me, £1.37 travel insurance and code generated no problem. Thanks. Great Find.

Worked for me for £1.37.

My concern now is random people using the fake numbers to invalidate my code.

hi is this for cineworld too??

Thanks OP! Can't believe this is actually working :confused: Soon, cinemas will be full of meerkats! :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for this

Excellent find , thanks for this

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

How does this actually work, do I need to purchase the policy every month? Or when do I purchase the policy for example if I purchase the policy for next week how long will it last? Please advise

Great find - thanks!

Good point about the fabricated codes. I'll create another account and do it the "legit" way.

Thanks, however this shouldn't be hot as you can get it completely free. Worked fine, went to Odeon last night!

1. Sign into comparethemarket
2. Go to meerkat movies
3. Click the big gold button (for existing policies I think)
4. Select Travel Insurance, and ASDA as a provider
5. Enter a random number for the policy number (maybe about 10 digits long)
6. It should work. I had to repeat this process again for it to work however, but I now have it for a year!

Thanks 2 41 for a year not bad.

ooh, lovely deal - thank op! But I think I'll buy the travel insurance for peace of mind!!

It's says where are £50 pound excess fees when you buy someone help I don't want to pay 50 pounds

sorry, don't have time to read 19 pages but I get this message when I log in, I already have the toy so do I still get the 2for1 movies if I continue?? Thanks in advance.

By continuing you understand that you are choosing MEERKAT MOVIES as your reward and will not be able to claim a toy this time.

Also Showcase Cinemas http://www.showcasecinemas.co.uk/events/meerkat-movies

I've never seen a deal this hot

What are meerkat movies? not heard of this

I can't manage to get the £1.37 insurance, the cheapest is £2.10 lol! still a bargain =D

cheapest i can get to is £2.10 not sure what im doing wrong..

if they cancel it, then you can just buy the £1.37 insurance and get it re activated. personally, I don't care about the 1.37, its just less hassle not to have to do it!

It's asking for an issue number and I don't have on my visa cars

Glad to see everyone is benefiting from this :') See you Meerkats at the movies! :laughing:

can anyone tell how much extra do you pay for 3D/IMAX 3d with meerkat 2 for 1?

Done this and it worked no problem. I paid 2.14 but that's nothing compared to just one cinema ticket! Great savings, thank you! :laughing:

£2.14 here, too - but a drop in the ocean for the savings this will bring, so thanks Op!
I did contemplate doing the free method.. but ... just in case, I'd rather have this for a year, than risk it, as once it's taken away, you might not be able to do this 'cheap' method any more.
Reading the T&Cs, it does look like they will verify purchases, which of course will fail if you dump random numbers in. But, you never know, you might get away with it :wink:

cost me £2.05....fantastic....scorching hot!

Which cinemas are part of this deal cheers in advance, sorry if I've missed something.... Wouldn't be the first time.. doh

what am I doing wrong? The search criteria does not accept below 5 years cover or below £10,000???

I went with topdog :smile:

Done this with one policy, very tempted to get another for my wife and then sign up for cineworld unlimited pass and 2 of us can go to the cinema every Tuesday and Wednesday for £16 odd a month

Simples!!! Heat added OP it's too good a deal to miss even if I go just once I've got the cost of my insurance back already. Some of the cheaper quotes aren't on the meerkat movies scroller so double check before you waste your hard earned £2.

OK, my one day risk is calculated as £2.05. Paid.

Went to activate and I already have an active policy showing which will expire on the 22nd of April.

How can I use my knew £2.05 policy?

Do you need to generate a new code / voucher for every week?

Hi guys, please take a sec to chuck a vote at my guide/faq, half way down page 6 (at 60 comments per page)

Most of the questions cropping up since page 1 are answered there.

A few more Likes and it will be visible in Top Comments, which should save people the duplicate queries and confusion.

Thanks!

Worked an absolute treat. A year's movies for £2.33. :stuck_out_tongue:

A bit worried the policy details/contract will come back to bite me... Will it just be a one off payment?

Thank you for that,needed single trip insurance for later in the year,worth getting it and getting the 2 for 1 tickets also

do you just select a 1 night uk travel insurance? quoting me £2.05?!

When did dad leave?

Here's mine for next tuesday and wednesday if anyone wants it. 4872 1078

I couldn't find it on page 6, otherwise would give it a like.
EDIT: Found it had to set posts per page to 60 instead of default 20.

amended, thanks!

Magic find, fakro123. Thank you :smiley:

Cheers, cost me £3.47 but the savings in the year, brill :-)

cheers op this plus super tuesday at vue £6.49 :smiley:

Brilliant bit of ComparetheMarket PR, however, they forgot one thing..

How about doing something for all the people that are..

SINGLE
ALONE
NOT MARRIED
NOT WITH SOMEONE
DO NOT HAVE A PARTNER
ARE NOT 1 OF 2
LIKE TO SEE A MOVIE ON THEIR OWN
ETC ETC!

Sent a snotty email asking them why they have forgotten
almost 1/3+ of the UK population in this "great deal" and
after 3 days, still no reply!

Yes, you can take someone with you, go with your family
or drag someone in to the cinema, who is just hanging
around, dithering over what film to watch..

It would have been nice to have the choice Mr Meerkat..

How about some PR magic to fix it???

50% off if you go alone?
FREE drink or popcorn with the code?
Etc :sunglasses:

Suggestions on a postcard/facebook/twitter to
the "Meerkat Lot" sooner, rather than later!

Yay!... Got my 2for1..£2.09 Cheers OP

Think ERV have cottoned on to this and bumped the prices slightly. Had a quote for £1.37 yesterday and went to buy it tonight and it's £2.05. Still decent for the savings though, heat!

Good point - well made

Needed travel insurance so ordered it from here! 12 months 2 for 1 tickets done too ... Thanks for the deal and heat added

cheers Deeks

what are we going to see?

I can sneak in the snacks - chomps etc

Sounds like a plan :smile:

thanks op. heat added. £2.05 through ERV.

Thanks good find.

Mine cost me a grand total of £1.37. Just booked my local Vue cinema for next week on Bargain Tuesday so a film for two has cost a grand total of £6.49 inc booking fee. Superb result. Hot hot!:sunglasses:

Fabulous offer just a shame there is not a single cinema in Cornwall that is signed up to this deal :disappointed:

Paid £2.74, will save double that in one trip to cinema, thanks for posting

Bought a policy, but it's not letting me activate - how long have people had to wait to do this?

I also bought a policy and it is not letting me activate. I bought it on the 8th but only tried to activate it now. it was for insurance for the 14th of April.

It is saying 'in order to get a meerkat Movies membership you need to have made a qualifying purchase through comparethemarket.com'

But I did take it out through compare the market.

Also having probs activating. Perhaps the server which processes the validations is temporarily down...

Have just bought policy , but the qualifying purchase details no longer says travel insurance qualifies!

Still working here but gone up 20p, shame it doesn't qualify for a toy..

Sorry, we can't automatically validate your details for the selected product and brand. Please check you have selected the correct product and brand.

I've emailed them with my policy number and section 5.1.1 of the terms and conditions (5.1.1 Purchased: car insurance, motorcycle insurance, van insurance, contents and/or buildings insurance, pet insurance, life insurance, landlord insurance or travel insurance;) - they have come back and said:
If you could allow 72 hours for this purchase to come through to us, you will then be able to activate your membership and redeem your codes.

Just got the ERV for £2.05, but it's not letting me validate my policy details! Ts & Cs definitely say travel insurance is included, so I'll give it a couple of days and try again.

I purchased to extend my 4 remaining months of meerkat movies but my account still says 4 months remaining

Not working for me

Thanks will try that

Hasn't worked for me

Didnt work for me either! Unhappy :disappointed:

Ahk, mine didn't auto activate either. Spent £12 on a policy as I want one to cover cash,mobiles & prescription glasses for a camping trip in July. I was planning on buying decent insurance for my trip anyway, guess I'll get the Movies next week when they reply to my email.

I bet it`s to stop people putting random codes in when they haven`t purchased a policy! I will wait a couple of days & retry

"Buy car or home insurance or switch energy through comparethemarket.com, activate your membership and get your 2 for 1 voucher code."

Says this on http://www.comparethemeerkat.com/ now. Possibly they've changed the offer to stop people taking advantage?

Although the terms and conditions still say:

I bought a policy and downloaded the app and when I logged in it said as I'd purchased home ins in January I could have 2 for 1 deal for 9 months so worth checking before you buy as I didn't need to

Thank you gordo1964. :smiley:

Can someone confirm if it works 72 hours after purchase?

Normally work straight away

Purchased some travel insurance but my policy number hasn't been recognised on the meerkat movies page (same issue others have been getting recently). Here's hoping it'll work after 72 hrs!

I purchased travel insurance 2 days ago and my policy number will not work. I emailed Compare The Market and their response was for me to try again on Monday as it allows time for confirmation of my purchase to go through to Compare The Market. So, fingers crossed no money has been wasted.

I purchased an insurance for £2.05 I got a code, however I am unable to activate or redeem this to get my voucher. Any ideas what went wrong?

I try to activate my meerkat movies membership after buying a travel policy but I just get the message:


Any ideas? Do I just need to try again in a few hours or something?

hi, just tried but no joy ?? yet .one day travel insurance

I think they're in the process of removing travel insurance from the eligibility list. I highly doubt they would try to revoke Meerkat Movies membership for anyone who's already purchased it or for anyone who purchases now. If you want this and still haven't purchased, I recommend going for it now while you still can. To activate, you'll need to contact support.

For anyone who wants to purchase now I think the prices have gone up to about £3

First time commenter. Finally got round to trying this. Logged into comparethemarket as I knew I had an account. Transpires I bought my home insurance through them in August 2014. This automatically makes me eligible for this so didn't need to buy anything but the downside is the 241 offer only applies until my house insurance runs out. Not a big problem as hubby and I rarely get to go to cinema midweek but will take my kid this Tuesday.

I was robbed... By 7 pence :disappointed::laughing:

Oh, just an excuse to say hi/ morning btw :smiley:

Tried to register and it still isn't working, same message as before but it is early, so I am going to try again this evening and if it still doesn't work I will drop them another email.

Just tried this, got a deal on ERV for £2.07.
Code isn't working on the Meerkat site or App.
Same error message you all get. I have emailed support will see what they say.

Got travel insurance. Same error message you all have. Have read their t&c's and it does state that meerkat movies is valid from date you purchase! I am just going to give support a ring and will mention that if I encounter any problems. Just need to find a phone no. For them.

I was told to wait until Monday then to try activating my Meerkat Movies account. My policy code is still not working. I've given their customer service an email asking if they can activate my account for me.

Waiting till someone confirms it's working :disappointed:

I've took a punt. Its clearly in their T&Cs that you can purchase travel insurance. What's the worst that can happen?!

what are the participate cinemas?

Hey guys, tried doing this today and it hasn't worked? Have they stopped this from working now? Someone please help thanks

time to expire? doesnt seem to be working anymore...

My membership has just been activated. So could anyone else confirm that theirs is now working? To me it seems like the deal is still working.

I emailed them and they suggested waiting 48 hours for them to verify my purchase. I think they're on to us.

Hi had the same response to my email, this was on Friday, still doesn't work today. Will give it another couple of days and maybe send another.

Hi
Update for all you guys, I bought Travel policy 12:10am 12/4/15, i know it was an emergency, lol, Coudn't activate it throughout yesterday day time, emailed them via their 'contact us' section, advised on the purchase date and time and details that under their T & C's section 5 that Travel Insurance is a qualifying product.

I received email today around 12:35pm to confirm 2 for 1 activated......woohoo

I also know this meerkat voucher code will work for cineworld unlimited customers, as I used to get 2 free tickets on Orange with my unlimited card, so it's double wammy.

Enjoy

emailed customer service and they activated it from they end. Now I can generate the codes.

Brought my travel insurance cost £2.05 on Sunday, the code wouldn't work ,but does now on Monday evening

it clearly states that Travel insurance purchases dont qualify for MEERKAT MOVIES I bougfht a policy and it will not accept the Policy number

A Qualifying Purchase enables a meerkat toy claim, and is one of the following products obtained via comparethemarket.com:

Car, Van, Motorbike, Home, Landlord, Pet insurance or Life insurance policies(i), successfully approved Credit cards(ii) or Loans, or a completed Digital TV/Broadband (iii) or Energy switch.

Products that do not qualify: Travel, Health, Business insurance, Breakdown cover, Income & Payment Protection insurance, or Mortgages.

Just got mine by contacting support who advised uninstalling/reinstalling the meerkat app and signing back in should get it going.
Worked fine.

Hey guys, I did this and took travel insurance for 1 day received the policy number, I went to apply for the Meerkat movies and it says it can't find my policy, has any1 else had the same problem?
Cheers guys x

Just took out a 1 day travel policy, worth a punt for £2.05.

Will let everyone know when/if I can get it to validate!

apologies if this has been posted already

http://www.comparethemarket.com/information/meerkat-movies-faqs/

What products qualify for the 2 for 1 cinema tickets?

To qualify for MEERKAT MOVIES membership, you need to purchase one of the following products via comparethemarket.com: car, motorcycle, home, van, pet, landlord, life, home/content or travel insurance. You can also qualify by taking out a credit card or loan or switch energy, digital aTV or broadband supplier.

Thanks op, £2.67 for me!
No activation yet but will give them a few days before contacting them :innocent:

please read posts 437 and 467

I have just tried and didn't work so I send a message to their customer service. It seems it shows it is still included under one area and not the other on their site. "qualifiying services say it doesn't" "Qualifiying products" says it does.

Thanks OP, well worth the heat.

Just took out travel insurance for a trip in the uk I am going on, £4.12 and now I have cover just in case which probably isn't a bad thing and a year of 2 for 1.... Thanks for posting the deal, never thought I could get 2 4 1 films for such a small amount!

Congrats with the VIP badge!

Mine finally activated after 4 days but it said I had bought travel insurance 16 months ago and I had -4 months of movies. Then it said I have it for 9 months until January! Have emailed them to ask.

I bought a policy but when I try to enter it on both website and app is says I don't qualify? Can anyone help? Thanks

If anyone has a spare code this week and could pm it me I'd be very grateful taking a lot of teens to cinema so its gonna get expensive with snacks etc. Thanks in advance.x

Mine activated today ... best £2.05 I have spent all year!

Hi does anyone have a meerkat movie code I can use today.

Hi do u have a meerkat movie code I can use.

Why are you asking me?

Anyway, no.

Why don't you buy something from Compare The market yourself?
