b*ying a one day UK travel insurance policy seems to be the cheapest way to access the offer. It cost me £1.94.

As I read it it will be available from 3rd April only unless you already hold a qualifying product with them, or am I missing sinething?

That what it says but I entered my policy number on the app and it gave me a code to use on Tuesday or Wednesday this week!

Where you able to register for Meerkat Movies after b*ying it?
I got quotes for a 7 day UK Travel Insurance but haven't done anything about it yet as I was unsure if it would qualify for the deal.

Yes, I downloaded the app and was able to register, got 12 months membership and was given a code for next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Just received this from Odeon

We have some exciting news to share with you.

You may have heard from our Meerkat friends Alexandr and Sergei over at Comparethemarket.com, that there are some great weekly offers coming to your big screen very
soon; 2 for 1 cinema tickets on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

As the Meerkats have Tuesdays covered, we are moving your ODEON Bargain Tuesday to a Monday; that way, you can get an offer on a Monday, plus Tuesday or Wednesday. How amazing is that?

As great things come, others must end... As we've had to make room for a Bargain Monday it will spell the end to our ODEON Première Club Film Fan Monday.We are sure you will enjoy our new great offers and still continue to earn and spend points on tickets, food and drinks.

So, here it is, “simples”...

Your last Film Fan Monday will be 23rd March
Your last Bargain Tuesday will be 24th March
Your first Bargain Monday will be 30th March

Your first Meerkat Movies will be coming very soon. Keep an eye out.

This is why I'm annoyed. Because of Meerkat Movies, Odeon customers lose out on a cheap day because we lose Film Fan Monday. Whereas we had Film Fan Monday, Bargain Tuesday and Whatever Wednesday was being called this week!
