How does the service work?
-
We operate a pre-paid membership system, whereby the more credit you
put on your account, the more bonus credit you get. When you get low
on credit you can recharge at the store, 24 hours a day, through our
Automated Dispenser and Browsing Stations. You can rent DVDs if you are
a member and have credit on your membership card (non members can use
a credit card as a temporary membership card). Your membership card holds
your rental balance. This means that from time to time you have to top
up your membership card (available 24 hours a day), by first swiping
your membership card and then topping up your membership account. The
Browsing Stations and Automated Dispenser can accept credit card and
the inside front of the Automated Dispenser can also accept notes (i.e.
$5, $10, $20, $50).

Can I reserve movies online?
-
Yes. With our online reservation system you can book and reserve your
choice of movies whilst at work/home and collect them from the store
at your convenience. You can reserve your movie and hold it in your name
for up to 2 hours. (*Rental charges only start once you collect
your movie). To use the online reservations you must have cookies enabled
on your browser.
* In order not to disadvantage other members
and to discourage abuse of the reservation facility, we reserve the right
to make a charge of $3 if reserved movies are not taken up.

What are the rental charges for movies and games?
-
What would you like them to be? At Red Room DVD, you decide how little
you want to pay for the latest DVDs. There are no gimmicks, no hidden
charges. The quicker you return your movie, the less you pay! Our rental
charges for New Releases are less than our competitors because we use
the very latest in rental technology and don’t need the unnecessary staffing
levels of our competitors.
Our Automatic Dispensers are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
which better suits today’s flexible lifestyle and allows us to offer
lower rentals to you, our members. Conventional movie rental stores can
only rent when they are open, so they charge higher rental fees to boost
profits from less rentals. Rd Room members rent smarter by returning
earlier and benefiting from lower rentals.

Can my children become members?
-
You must be 18 or older to be a member but at the time of applying
for membership you can obtain additional membership cards for $2.50 each
under your membership; These can be issued with a separate password that
will restrict choice of movies and games in accordance with Australian
censorship laws. It is the responsibility of the member to make sure
their membership card reflects any restrictions in the choice of movies
and games they want their membership card(s) to have access to. Red Room
DVD does not accept any responsibility for inappropriate selections of
movies/games when using membership cards.
