I mean you got paid 5 quid to rent a movie. I'd call that a win...
Okay, so go buy a gas station sandwich for that money. You weren't paid anything, you got "store credit in gift cards". Which means you paid them for a movie, they took your money, then later they "gave you back" something that doesn't have any value at all to them - they can "print" store credit anytime they want, and those small amounts won't matter in the long run.
can use it to rent another movie
Infinite movie rental loop
Which isn't "I got paid for renting a movie"
Dude it's Amazon. You can buy virtually anything with that store credit.
And that makes it okay? As I said - go to a gas station and buy a sandwich there. Let's see if they approve "amazon store credit" as a valid currency
Fine, but that is how it works pratically everywhere, it is not an Amazon specific thing.
It is extremely rare that even a real store give you back real money if you return something and some time have passed, they usually just give you a coupon of the same value.
The problem here is that Amazon take your item, not that you return something and got a coupon for it instead of real money
Yeah, whatever. You weren't paid to rent a movie like OP said you were.
If the movie could be bought with 5 quid, then it probably was already an old movie.
They basically forced you to rent an old movie that would have been in the discount bin.
