  1. I can't watch a rented movie


    Hello, i've rented a movie but can't watch it. If I click on 'watch; and it says "can't get you there" first pic. If I click 'close' the only option given, it shows 0 videos second pic, on my PC. Why is this? Could it be because the site was german, and i live in romania? Maybe they didn't support my adress, although...they let me pay!

    :)

  3. Rented a movie, can't watch it

    I tried renting a movie from my Mac. Paid for it and then realized I can't watch it on a non-Windows machine. For the life of me I don't know why this is the case, but ok. I fired up a Windows 10 machine that I have, logged in and instead of it showing the movie in the library, it offered me to rent the movie again. So, I paid for it AGAIN, not willing to waste any more time. Then when clicking on "watch now", I get the following message:

    Sorry, we can't take you there.

    Please try again. If the problem continues, visit" https://support.microsoft.com to check for guidence.

    0x80004005

    I tried that, but was overwhelmed with amounts of links there, none of them pertaining to movie rentals.

    Can you guys just refund the two charges and I solemnly promise I will never use any of your products again. Thank you!
