My card was charged 39.99 and I never watched anything on their fake a## site. I ts very sad how sites like these take advantage of people by charging them unknown to consumers... I would have definitely given them a 0 review but that was not an option. They need to be put out of business... They are nothing but SCAMMERS! Keep complaining and they will go out of business...

I got redirected to Reelvidz from solarmovies.ph and it prompted me to create a free account in order to view the movie so I did. It then prompted me to enter my credit/debit card details but assured me that no charges will be made. Big, careless mistake on my part to do so for they changed my supposedly "free" account to a premium one without my knowledge and charged me USD 34.95/month for that. I only realized that something was amiss after the third month. I have since cancelled my account with them. I would rate them 0 starts if I could. STAY AWAY.

Ripped off
April 4, 2017

I never signed up for this site, not five days ago, not never.

I called about a $39.95 charge on my credit card. Advised I'd never signed up and got them to delete future charges and (they say) restoration of my money to my account in up to 5 days.

Feeling violated by this rip off.

Bad Scam
November 27, 2016

I cancelled my membership 3 weeks ago and 39.95 was charged in my account and it was without my knowledge and took out the money i had in my account for school. Im disgusted! Was referred by another site then it took a donation for another organization then took 5.95 from me.

Looked for a hard to find movie. Found a link to ReelVidz that made me believe that they had the movie. So I decided to give it a go. After signing up, giving over my credit card number, I did a search for the movie and it turns out that they do not have the movie. So I immediately cancelled my membership. I also used a credit card that I have never used for anything else, and do not intend to ever use, so if a charge appears on this card from ANYWHERE, I will know where it originated!

Was about to hand over my credit card info. Then, I thought, 'Better read some reviews.' Horrifying! How do companies like ReelVidz live with themselves? Causing all this monetary misery for innocent movie goers. I'm sure they will get 'theirs' eventually.

I came across this website when searching for a movie. As it's a totally strange and never heard of website, I looked for reviews before signing up. I then read lots of reviews here and know what it is. But in order to test it, I signed up with a newly registered email address, provided a credit card number that has expired with a fake name and wrong expiration date, then processed all the way to the email verification. Then when I clicked on the verification link, it brings up a new browser window and shows the 'paywall' with lots of scam ads, and you are forced to complete one of the 'offers' to continue to the next step. When I clicked on one of the scam 'offers', it opens up another browser window and then next, then next, never ends. There is no end point of this scam, and it just gets you to jump through the hoops but never will get to see the movie you want.

This website is set up to steal your money or to get some scam into your computer or browser, don't ever trust it.

Signed up to watch thor with my grandparents after it was advertised there. They didn't have the film i wanted and seemed to only have 20 or 30 $#*! films.
I deleted the account and forgot about it. Until a few days ago i got a £2.95 charge [admittedly not as bad as many others but enough to make me overdrawn]
I went to try and delete the account again but they say i have already deleted the account.
Will be ringing them later...
Dont go to reelvidz

I was tempted against my better judgement to try the Reelvidz site to help my grandson with a film he needed to review for school, but fortunately decided to check it out here first. Thanks for confirming my suspicions & probably saving me both money & grief.

This site is bull $#*!
January 31, 2011

This site is bull $#*!. They rip you off, then refuse to give refunds as it's their "policy" for no refunds. Stay far far away from this site. When I called, they kept hanging up on me! - so I was on the phone for about an hour and the "supervisor" said there is nothing he can do. Complete bull $#*!

The first and i hope the last experience of scam i have ever been involved on the internet with my prepaid card.
I have been registered 3 months ago for a "5 days free account" as advertised on the site. When i logged in i haven't seen anything interesting and i have been sign out and never used it again. 1 month later i get the invoice of my prepaid card and notice a charge of 7,95€ from REELVIDZ LONDON! I really tried hard to find out what it could be as i didn't use the site again form the day i registered! I have followed the process for cancel my membership -really pissed of for the extra charge of "€0.99 convenience fee for online cancellations" but anyway, we got to PAY for our mistakes! 2 months later i got a new invoice from my prepaid card, guess what? No 0,99 charge, just a brand new 7,95€ charge!
Shame on them! Just stay AWAY!

Absolutely nothing current -- most movies I've never even heard of let alone seen in Blockbuster. They have got to be the worst of the worst, D to -F stuff. I recommend you not waste your time and certainly not your money!

Professional Scammers. They've been scamming me since sep 2011. I just realized when I saw a charge on my card email statement ( which I never look at). The first option they give you when you call is to Cancel you subscription, ( How convenient).
Then the automated voice states how there are now refunds. Professional all the way. Don't give these guys your credit card!

I was sent this link by my brother, much to my horror this company has taken almost £90.00 from my bank account. This is after proclaiming they only needed your account information for a one off payment of a pound. I am livid to say the least, and will be looking for way for them to make renumeration... word of advice stay away from these crooks!

Another rip off site
December 14, 2016

I was looking for a site that I could watch a movie on my computer. Came across Reelvidz. Once I decided to create an account, then it asked for my credit card information, stating it would Never be charged anything as long as I cancelled after the 5 day free trial period. Usually, I wouldn't have gone any further, but I thought well five days. So I signed up and gave my card number.
Then after I thought about it for a very few minutes, I saw the email for support, and sent an email telling them to cancel that I did not want the free trial period, as I was worried I would end up being charged. That was on Sunday, and surprisingly I got an email back right away. Said my membership was cancelled, and I would not be charged anything, and no longer a member so no further emails would be accepted.
Today my bank was charged $1.35 on my visa. Now this is not a large sum. But why was it charged? I never used the service at all. Downloaded NOTHING. I have now blocked them from my card, in case they try anything else.\
This is a dishonest company. If they would charge $1.35 for NOTHING, they may charge a lot more. So block your card number if you entered it for a
"FREE trial membership". I hate places that lie.

Do not give your credit card info to these criminals. It says that there will not be any charges to your card, however as soon as I signed up they charged the account $44.95

A While ago, I signed in for a "Free" trial on Reelvidz/ The website asked me to enter my Credit Card Information in order to sign up for the Free Trail. After that they started deducting money from my Credit card. First it was only 59 Dollar but recently it went up to 260 dollar. It was supposed to be a Free trial. I never authorized the purchase of the product. Anyway, the site never worked and I never downloaded one single movie.
Why are this being allowed by Authorities?

I've been charge twice, € 34.95 each... I'm terribly angry at them, because they gave me the 5 days free trial, then without doing anything they began charging the premium membership price... Anyway, i was also quite naive and not practical myself, since I found too late this question (quite hidden to me):

"Why was I billed €34.95 when I signed up for a free trial?"

And their reply is the following:

"As indicated during the signup process, the 5-Day trial gives you free access to our Premium services for five days. To avoid service interruptions, your trial membership automatically renews as a monthly Premium membership, billed at €34.95 per month, unless cancelled before the trial expires."

Summing up. My personal suggestion is: stay away! From reelvidx.com

Hope this was useful!
Ciao, E.
