My local odeon is over £10 a ticket - would make a big difference if I was to see a film a week, thanks OP - hope all the negative people don't put you off posting other stuff!

£18 a month..

Far too expensive in my opinion.. My local Odeon charges £4 a ticket, so even seeing a movie every single week, I'd still be losing money..

Not a deal. No price.

I always go on my own, unless its something my friends really want to see. (UK)

Sorry, I may be being a little dim, but I can't work out where to register my details. Can you advise?

Thanks

Not a deal. No price.

it's not really free is it, you're going to pay the yearly fee for their limitless service and THEN get the gift card

This is for pre registering only. Assume there will be a monthly fee payable so probably shouldn't be in freebies

Can't wait for this as there aren't any cineworld cinemas in N-Ireland. I go to the odeon all the time so this will save me a fortune :smiley:

Not a freebie.

Great freebie!

Would love if empire did something like this. Also the monthly fees doesn't include I max does it ?

Thanks for the heads up on this! I just checked my email and saw it too. Registered and will see if it includes my cinema.

It was £17.50 a month or £99 for 6 months during the beta wasn't it? Hopefully pricing is similar to that.

Thanks for posting. I've signed up for the pre-register, we'll see what the offer is like. Anything around the £18 mark and I may sign up. ODEON is my local and charges £9.45 for standard 2D tickets (I just checked a 2pm start film).

I currently pay 17.50 a month as part of the beta which is still ongoing. That is for any seat at any time so of course depends on how often you go to the cinema and when (meerkat) to justify the fee. Also it wasn't available to book tickets online which was a pain.

Would help if you mentions where?

28000 unopened emails :-o

I've signed up for more information. Pricing will be key here and also if it can be used with Meerkat Movies like the Cineworld card can. My local ODEON charges £5 a ticket all day, every day. With Meerkat Movies, it's an absolute bargain to see a film, but the screen picture quality isn't as good as the nearest Vue or Showcase so I'd be put off being stuck with the poor quality screens.... we'll see!

my local odeons is a sh.t hole so it's only £4 per ticket so not really worth it 4 me b

My local is £12 a ticket so I would only need to go twice a month for this to be worth it. I would probably go 2-3 times a week. They might do a higher price for every screen within the M25.

If you go a lot, 18 a month isn't too bad, the average price at mine is £8+. Problem is there's rarely more than one film a month at the minute worth watching, so I'd never break even.

Probably loads of ts and cs , not to be used in Leicester Square , not to be used for premieres or opening release of blockbusters ! Would much rather use cineworld but there's not even much out this year that makes me want to go to cinema regularly

there aren't enough movies released for this to be a deal. I'd buy a one off monthly pass for £15 but anything more is overpriced given how badly cinemas need consumers these days.

I pay this for one ticket when I use the gallery seating experience - doubt that would be included, if it was - I'm in

Any chance the BFI Imax will be included with perhaps a premium version of the offer?

A shame they have made it more expensive than Cineworld's Unlimited Card - if it was cheaper, they could have convinced a lot people to change over. I actually live closer to an Odeon but rarely use it due to having a Cineworld card.

This is a shame, I got rid of my Cineworld card and started using Odeon cinemas instead as the fact that people actually PAY for their tickets means they actually want to see the films they go to. The unlimited cards mean people just rock up to anything and then sit talking, using phones, kicking you in the neck and stuff. Think I'll just save up an buy a projector :smile:

I was at the newly opened Odeon Orpington yesterday and saw the poster. It is £17.99 locally and £19.99 for Central London. And similar to Cineworld you need to sign up for a 12 month contract. I would have considered it, if the 12 month clause wasn't there.

Do Cineworld cards have a photo on them? I have a couple of daughters at uni together and this could be handy. Hoping it may be transferrable (even if the T&c's indicate otherwise).
If there is a photo requirement it wouldn't work for what I'm thinking.....they're not twins!

Yes they have a photo and the cineworld I use has gotten hotter at checking them.

I assume limitless is only for standard seats? can you pay a quid extra for premium?

Don't suppose anyone knows how much one of these will be for a child?

As long as it's not home cinema only (kind of implied in the trial) I will give it s go as the Manchester and Liverpool ones are 10+ when I use those and only tend to have time at the weekend.

Its a con, more university graduates in the Odeon head quarters trying to baffle us with science , like the b.o.g.o.f's

Cine world can be had for 144 for the year, Orson need to compete with that price Imho

it won't rival cineworld as with the cineworld card you also get money off lots of extras like restraunts and attractions like the dungeons etc as well as money off the food

Orson Welles? Is he still around? :smiley:

Does anyone know (if they're part of the beta) if this excludes the usual London Odeons?

Amazing amount of hate in this thread :wink:

This is a good deal if your only option is Odeon - in my experience Odeon are expensive to go to at £8-£12 a ticket for standard seating depending on the film, so if you see 2-3 films a month this will be good value.

Cineworld is equivalent - their normal ticket prices are cheaper at £5-£8 for standard seats depending on time of day, so at £17 a month their pass is also worth it if you see 2-3 films a month.

Personally I am happier with the Cineworld offer - the food/drink discounts are good, and once I hit 12 months Imax/3D will be included with no uplift too.

Remains to be seen if Odeon will do something similar but I would be surprised if they don't.

I have made good use of my unlimited card and see 3-4 films a month on average - its enough to see pretty much all the releases and you do get some surprises out of it. Films that I would never have paid £8 to go and see based off the trailers (e.g. heart of the sea), but that I actually really enjoyed.

Use meerkat for 241, approx £5 each then for 2 people. Better than approx £40/month 2 people or equivalent 8 visits a month or less is cheaper

​Then don't get the card just go when you pay.. I pay £8 a ticket and sometimes go more than once a week so it is cheap for me.

Ridiculous comment. How much would you like them to charge each month to see as many films as you like? £10?

No, only on Tuesdays and Wednesdays

You've got to go cinema at least twice a month for this to be worth while...

Do people that have these cards actually go to the cinema on there own? I know in the USA people there do that all the time, but in the UK if you do that you're looked upon as a loner.

I've never been on my own, and always just go with my wife and kids as a family, which means I sometimes miss out on movies that I want to see and they don't... so I don't think I would get the most out of one of these cards.

Cheap considering it would cost more than £18 for 2 admissions at my local.

It's ridiculous because you have a different opinion? I clearly laid out facts, and stated a reasoned opinion based upon them. The only thing I find ridiculous is your attitude.

Incidentally, at £12/£13 a month, I would be tempted since that is a reasonable amount to pay based on the ticket prices at my local..

It may astound you to realise that opinions other than your own are valid and that you are not, in fact, the centre of the universe.

Just had email that it's £17.99 or £19.99 per month depending on inside /outside London. As a premiere club member you get a £25 gift card if you sign up before 10th March. Hope this helps

Website seems to be live: http://www.odeon.co.uk/limitless/

You'd have to go 5 times a month going on a Tuesday or Wednesday like I currently do with my wife to make it worthwhile

Nothing in the terms about using it on a meerkat day to get 241 included.

Hasn't she cottoned on you are spending the weekends with your girlfriend yet?

:wink:

Main question is, can this be used for BFI Imax!

Edit** not included :disappointed: as well as Whiteleys...

Can anyone clarify - Can you book two tickets for the same screening?

Website
How many tickets can I book at once?
You can book tickets to see as many screenings as you like on the day you are booking. You can also book up to two tickets for screenings. Your bookings can’t overlap (after all, you can’t be in two places at once!).

Looking at the T & Cs

"Member can book tickets for as many screenings as they wish on the day they are booking. Members can also book up to 2 tickets for screenings on subsequent days. Bookings cannot overlap.."

so can you book two tickets for the same screening?

Am I alone in not having any Odeon replies/emails about this offer nor the actual (Limitless offer) since signing up for this pre-registration on Saturday?

Beginning to think I put in a typo on my email address. Which would be rare for me -.-

The Odeon Premiere card is also not valid... such a shame.

I hope they dont leave it too long to send out the link, today would be good so i can use it tomorrow

Bit disappointed that 3D isn't included in the price. It says you are able to pay an 'upgrade fee' to watch 3D films. Any idea how much this is?

After having seen the details this is ridiculously overpriced compared to the Cineworld equivalent, at least for me. It's not the sub cost that's the problem but the exclusions. The 'event' stuff being excluded is a shame as Cineworld just treat them as an extra surcharge over a 2D ticket but the killer is Odeon's "Premium" seating. Almost all Cineworld screens have done away with this and (again, in my experience) now offer decent seating and leg room as standard. The standard Odeon seating in comparison is frequently poor, presumably in an attempt to entice upgrades. Net result is for a comparable experience I'd always be paying the surcharge at Odeon which, if I'm seeing a couple of films in a row, means it's still cheaper to travel to a Cineworld than walk to my local Odeon. Doesn't help my local Odeon is relatively small so majority of screenings are in 3D and is also bleedin' expensive as it's within the M25.

The little things aren't great either. Obviously they're not going to give you Premiere points for free tickets but they could have done so on the extra charges over the free tickets. No linkup with other retailers means you don't get offers like the 25% off at Pizza Hut, Frankie and Bennie's and Chiquitos (surprisingly useful at the cinemas I go to). No discount on food and drink in the cinema, can't overlap bookings (REALLY useful when you're trying to squeeze in another film and don't care about the 20 minutes of ads), can only book two tickets in advance (considering how jammed some months are this year with interesting releases that could be a real pain)... really feels like this is something Odeon didn't want to do but had to thanks to the competition from other chains and home viewing.

got a email from them today. £17.99 is rediculous. not worth at all.

Interesting that it has taken Odeon so long to come out with something comparable to Cineworld's Unlimited card, but so far it looks only a pale imitation.

I read somewhere a while ago that Cineworld could only offer the card because of a previous loophole that had since been closed, hence why no other chain could offer an equivalent. I think it stemmed back from the Virgin/UGC days before it became Cineworld. So presumably this new Odeon offering means all chains can now offer something similar.

​I emailed to ask and they replied saying it won't work with Meerkat 2 for 1:

Thank you for your email.
No, unfortunately you can not use Meerkat Movies with a Limitless card as it is 2 separate offers/promotions. When it comes to The Meerkat Movies promotion it only applies when a purchase has been made.
If you would like to visit 
http://www.odeon.co.uk/privacy-and-legal/limitless-terms-and-conditions/ for more information and terms on our Limitless offer. 

Any evidence to the contrary?

Has anybody had the voucher yet? Already seen x 3 films this weekend, at this rate it will pay for itself in a month and a half. Living the dream

I signed up when they emailed me on Thursday 3rd March - that said, i've just read the terms of the £15 gift card email, and it says you'll receive an email on the 4th, and if you sign up from that you can get the gift card.

Hope they don't deny me for ordering a day before the terms say!

Would be interesting to know this too. In Swansea the other week, the guy at the till mentioned something about a monthly pass and we can use the meerkat code for 9 quid. At the time limitless wasn't launched, so was a bit confusing what he was on about, asked Odeon on Twitter and they said it's 2 completely different things, so it's strange where he got his info from, unless he just assumed it could be combined.

I always go with my wife or dad and always use meerkat, so would need to go 4 times a month to just break even if it wasn't possible, plus we have a Vue too, so probably not the right offer for me personally, sounds like its tidy for people not using meerkat though.

I got flyer saying signup before 31st March and get £25 giftcard.

yay my £15 voucher came in the post today.

Any idea how to cancel ?
