Missing You Hoyts
Where do I start.
-Small selection of dvds
-Over priced $4!
-New releases can take upto 2 weeks to be stocked even though screen above kiosk shows otherwise.
-Long waits for customer service when called and then disconnected after all that waiting due to high volume of calls(I wonder why)
-Poor customer service
-No online services ether.
Hoyts wasn't perfect but my experience with video ezy has been frustrating and extremely disappointing.

Ive learnt my lesson.. will not return
I hired a movie from a kiosk inside shopping centre at 9pm just before closing, when i went home to watch it the dvd was deliberately scrathed with a blade obviously by the previous renter... so i tried calling the helpline but answering machine just keeps saying they are experiencing high volume of calls and asks me to call back another time.. so i tried next morning.. same deal, so ive emailed them and got an automated reply saying to wait 5days for a reply.... i now cant return the dvd as shopping centre is closed on public hol.. and im not sure where i can return it... will probably get a late fee for a dvd i couldnt even play... where is the protection for consumer in that logic??? Will never return

VideoEzy, Not, But Call Centre Great!
Rented a DVD easily in Reservoir on $2 Tuesday. Looked up website to return same close to Blackburn where I live and the site pointed to a shop in Blackburn South and a kiosk Woolworths in Burwood. Determined to avoid a $4 late fee, I raced off first to the shop which was closed (and was not equipped to accept such a return anyway) and then to Burwood. There I found the case incompatible with the machine there and could not return it. Apparently, there are two different sets of machines in different locations which are not compatible with each ...Read more
other. Not apparently to customers like me who must've been expected to know this without being told either on the machines themselves or when you search for a nearby location on their website. You might be aware that previously, under a different trading name, a rental from one could be returned anywhere in the network of machines. They also used to send a confirmation email of the rental, return or any extension, not this time. Thoughtless on their part, frustrating for me. Well, I called their call centre and encountered one of the most professional, caring person who not only extended the return date without charge but who made me feel listened to and silly at my demonstration of angst. VideoEzy, if you are listening, this person was worth her weight in gold for me. I am deeply grateful for that experience. So, I am no longer a dissatisfied customer as a result and may more prudently use your service again. But, could you make better effort to inform your customers of these facts and not rely on an obscure disclaimer or call centre to bail you out. ThanksSimilar opinion?

RIP Off and very poor service
I wanted to express my frustration with my experience.
Last time I used it the dvd was left accidentally at the shops (we didn’t even get it home to watch. We called one day after it was overdue to advise of the situation only to be told it didn’t matter and we would keep getting charged until the max was taken out of $35 (plus the additional $3.50 fee we paid at the start) Nearly $40 on a dvd we could have bought for $20.
We were told we should find the dvd (after just explaining we clearly didn’t have it and called the shop etc. to check).

Do not use kiosk
Rented a DVD on Saturday went to return on Sunday Kiosk would not accept it back . Management from Woolworths rang them for me after trying 10 times to return to Kiosk machine, Video Ezy told them they were to busy to help, Later that night rang again because I did not want to get charged late fee girl was ok, so I went back late Sunday night to try again after 6 attempts it accepted the DVD. Now I am worried I may still be charged for not returning it because I did not receive Email conformation of acceptance. Rang Video Ezy this is phone c...Read more
all number 4 to be told they do not send Email conformation, but last time a few weeks ago I did get one . Well the lady on the phone of course blamed lack of staff etc the usual PR snow job! I will not use them again DVD hire cost $4 plus Stress and 2hrs of my time longer than the movie and 4 phone calls because being worried about being charged late fees . NEVER AGAIN will I use this Kiosk its just not worth the worry. Please be careful ! June 28th 2022 Update: Rating discrepancy I question any 5 star rating for this service when so many people are having so much trouble it seems the company may be making some alleged comment . Seems very strange that there can be such a large discrepancy.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Terrible Web interface
-Web interface shows movies as available at a kiosk that are not.
-No way to book movies online
-Web locations are not specific in detail making machines in shopping Centre's hard to find. .. especially when you call their customer service and they tell you it's next to a coffee shop that no longer exists.
-Machines are not universal meaning you often can't return to another machine.

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE!!!!!
I was charged $95 ($35 per DVD) on my credit card for "failing to return" x3 hired DVD's.... these were all returned the day after hiring them, so was consequently appalled to see these charges. I rang their customer service and was told I had to wait 10 days for them to run their investigation... only to be told that nothing was found and i wasn't getting my money back. I will never use there service again and would advise everyone to avoid this dodgy company! I rang my bank and they are looking into it for me, they said this happens all the time.... do yourself a favour and go to the movies instead!!!

Very poor replacement for Hoyts Kiosk
All of our local DVD kiosks were previously operated by Hoyts Kiosk until they sold out to this mob. Video Ezy does not provide accurate online advice on which DVDs are available at a particular kiosk, nor do they have an online reservation facility. Their smaller kiosks also seem to have fewer copies of new releases. The website does not even provide an accurate list of nearby kiosks. Hoyts Kiosk was brilliant, and we used them almost every week. This mob is a bunch of amateurs.

Great customer service
Used these alot, and only twice I got charged for overdues, once 5 mins late, and next time 15 mins late. Both times I emailed customer service and got a refund. The 9 pm return is generous and the cheap prices are great, my local dvd store (yes there is one) charges more for a weekly than they do for a latest release from video ezy. The only setback would be lack of choice.

Extreme Poor Customer Service & Incorrect Charges
I rented a movie on Friday and was charged for another movie on Saturday. When I called to organise a refund and lady I spoke to was extremely rude and didn't help me. I still haven't been able to speak with someone to organise a refund.

Couldn't even hire a movie. Reading reviews looks like a good thing
Loyal Hoyts kiosk user and with the merger received a $10 voucher to try the Video Ezy Kiosk. Went to the kiosk and what a waste of time. Machine was working but no movies displayed for rent. Went through every menu - Rating, Genre, Release date, All movies .... Nothing to rent!!!!
Called customer service line but due to daylight saving time difference all closed for the night. On returning home mildly disappointed went on-line and read these reviews and looks like I have dodged a big issue by not being able to rent from Video Ezy Kiosk. Lucky for me the Blockbuster Kiosk is closer.

Bring back Hoyts
Our Hoyt's kiosk was replaced by video ezy. You can't see online if they have blu rays and you can't reserve online. All of which I could do at the Hoyt's kiosk.
Why do t they have mainly blu Ray? Who wants to watch standard definition any more??
Back to Foxtel and Netflix for me.

Beware Video Ezy Express Kiosk Return Scam
Rented my first DVD from one of their kiosks and returned it on time. Machine took the DVD but then the computer froze. Waited for a while but nothing happened and the DVD was not ejected. Same story as many below, ended up with a $35 overdue charge even though its a problem with their tech. Will not be going back and will have to go through the hassle of a credit card recharge. Hoyts are much more reliable, made multiple rentals from their machines and never had a problem.
