Default Anyone having a delay with their Netflix Movies

Apparently there is a problem with them delivering their DVD's to a lot of their subscription users. Here it the website: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080814/...netflix_outage

I'm glad I subscribe to Blockbuster Online .

They sent e-mail to me today saying that they are putting a credit on my account because of possible delays, but I just got more movies today, so that's cool.

They haven't checked in my movies for the last week.

IMPORTANT: Your DVD shipments might be delayed…

We're sorry to report that we continue to experience issues with our shipping system, so some of you are not receiving DVDs in a timely manner and some of you have not received emails letting you know we got a DVD back from you.

We apologize and we'll be automatically issuing credits to all of you whose shipments have been delayed. Our goal is to ship DVDs as soon as possible and to provide a personalized email update to you if your DVD shipment was delayed.

We're sorry for any inconvenience we've caused you and thank you for your patience.
The Netflix Team

Nope. One day after I send the movie back, I get a "received" email (early in the day), and then a new one "shipped" email (later in the day). Then I get it the next day. So, I get a about a 3-day turn around. Only once have I had to wait a whole week for a movie to come in.

Yes, that is the norm for me too BUT there is a shipping delay that has been going on all week. Have you returned any movies this week? Have they shipped any out to you since Tuesday/Weds? I'm still waiting for them to ship me my 4 movies, been checked in since Tuesday.

Seeing how I only have the 2-a-month $5 plan - its no big deal. Besides, no rental places in my area carry Blu-rays.

BTW, they've just updated their web site:

Our Shipping Centers Are Mailing DVDs
Delayed DVD Shipments Are Being Sent Today (Friday)
Click here to learn more

We’re happy to report that all of our shipping centers are resuming normal operations (after 3 days of issues). If you should have been shipped a disc Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, it will ship today (Friday).

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. To all of you whose shipments have been delayed, we’ll be automatically applying a 15% credit to your next billing statement. Or, if you are new to Netflix and your first shipments have been delayed, we recognize that this is not a good way to begin your Netflix membership and we’ll automatically extend your free trial by a week.

I got the same message, but I shipped one back to them on Thursday. I shouldn't be affected.
