Companies LOVE punishing their customers while the pirates sail on without trouble

Punishing them by giving them £5? The bastards.

Is he not paying a monthly subscription on top of all this? They're getting their money back pretty quickly.

I doubt that he's paying a subscription for a single movie, besides he got refunded 5 extra bucks, which amounts to at least something

So now all of the movies to OP's name have a chance to get removed. How great /s

Again, he got a full refund AND £5. He lost nothing of value.

He would have to pay a monthly fee regardless of these events in order to watch the movie he bought. Now he doesn't have to, since he can't.
