Yeh I agree - they collect quite abit of personal data that i don't like either... With that one I wasn't so bothered some I have avoided because I don't like it.

That is okay... Remember some have pa*d less too...

lol...I think the people with "FMUKer profiles" all applied quickly , whereas like your wife and my friend, they weren't as keen and hence got the gig..
They actually notified my friend a few days in advance via email. They only need about 10 people, so considering it's been posted everywhere online and not just FMUK, it's not a surprise no many people has been selected

I was the one who originally posted this as I got an email from Pearl and Dean about it. I didn't enter myself as I will be out on Monday at the time they wanted you to log on to do the survey. I thought it sounded reasonably easy to get "chosen" and get 5 cinema tickets but obviously not as simple as it sounds. But if it takes about an hour then £35 approx. worth of tickets is okay - I don't get pa*d that much an hour for any work I do!!!

Well it is quite fun, you just chat online about films for an hour or so! kind of like what we do here but pa*d with cinema tickets. I was watching it last time my friend did it online, we still have the 5 cinema vouchers to use at Vue, but it has to be used by 31.12.09....

You and your friend see a film twice, second time get a random person in to watch it with you, and ruin the film for them.

Are there any restrictions on the tickets they give besides the expiry date? Like they cannot be used for 3d films or special screenings... are the tickets valid for all days of the week?

Thanks

I'd think Avatar, Sherlock Holmes and Up in the Air should be good choices for movie-watching in Dec and Jan...

He's already watched Up in the Air. Not sure if Sherlock Holmes is his thing but can see him watching Avatar...
