TGBMS was in a list of DVDs recommended to me by Amazon..

Not any longer, although I saw that one reviewer thinks it's a 'mockumentary'.

[Siegfried Shrink]

I think I did ther mockumentary one

From O'Bonk's FB: ( the engine is running out of steam..... and we need to leave some more negative reviews on Amazon)

To everybody who has already bought TGBMS on DVD or Amazon Prime, as well as all those who are intending to do so. We are in need of your help.

Please don't forget to rate and review the film on Amazon, since there is no better form of marketing in the digital age, than a large number of genuine five star reviews from people who have seen the film, which already has more than a dozen such reviews for the DVD.

This will also assist us greatly in bouncing back from the TGBMS blow-back we have experienced over the past ten days, during which time it became apparent that:

a. Some people really didn't want the film to screen in the shadow of Canary Wharf last Saturday.

b. Publicity for the film is being suppressed on YouTube, Google and Twitter.

c. There has been an attempt to write the film off as a parody of itself, having been reviewed on Amazon as a "mockumentary", which allegedly uses a bunch of very convincing amateur actors to portray events which never actually happened.

However, if you can help us generate 100 five star Amazon reviews, for both the DVD and the digital release, you will have played your part in making sure 'The Great British Mortgage Swindle' is a mainstream success, as well as thwarting the concerted efforts to prevent the film reaching the people who need to see it and contributing towards the rehousing of the protagonists who lost their properties during the making of the film.

For everything you have already done to support the film and for everything you are about to do, never doubt for a second how eternally grateful our children will be one day, when enough people know enough about the mortgage scam to put an end to it in our lifetimes, which TGBMS was always intended to catalyze.

...and it looks like their screening in London got sabotaged ;

It is with regret that we must inform you that, due to circumstances beyond our control, the confirmed screening of 'The Great British Mortgage Swindle', scheduled to take place at 6pm in South London this Saturday, the 15th of December 2018, has been cancelled.

Since it is too late to book another venue before the New Year, full refunds are available for everybody who booked tickets for the screening. Emails have already been sent this morning to everybody who did so, explaining the options available.

To make amends for the cancelled screening of the film in the capital, from today, everybody who has purchased Cinema-on-Demand tickets via the A-FP Box Office, is entitled to cash them in for a DVD of the film, provided they have not already been used at a confirmed screening.

To take advantage of this Special Offer, reply to the email you received after you bought your ticket, writing “I accept the COD DVD OFFER” in the body of your message. Alternatively, you can do the same using the contact page at our website, quoting your ticket number.

A DVD will then be dispatched and delivered to the address you have already supplied us with when you purchased your COD ticket.

As the price of the DVD is £9.99, if you paid £8 for your ticket, there would be a £1.99 supplement. If you paid £10, you would be due a refund of 1p. Full refunds remain available to everybody who has not attended a confirmed screening or cashed in their ticket.

If we don't hear from you, we will assume you would like to retain your reservation for a screening of the film near you in the New Year, which your existing tickets will still be good to gain entry to.

Please accept our sincere apologies for any and all inconvenience caused, as well as our gratitude for your support of truly independent filmmaking.

Pretty sure this was me, glad it seems to have had the intended effect

due to circumstances beyond our control

Translation: Only three people bought a ticket.

In two minds about this. £3.49 for the SD rent version on Amazon Prime. Plus side, get to do a Verified Purchase Review. Downside, this grifter gets £3.49.

Sadly no:

Your digital order cannot be cancelled once you have started watching or downloading the video.

(I haven't rented it. That's from another film.)

[NYGman]

You know, as a mocumentary about how an uneducated simpleton tricks people into believing they really don't have to pay for anything, it could be quite entertaining.

actually selling tickets?

[Chaos]

there needs to be a scathing review of the mockumentary taking advantage of a mentally ill family in order to turn a buck.

[hucknallred]

(I haven't rented it. That's from another film.)

I'm prepared to shell out £1, do we have 9 others? I'll then cheerfully rip it & upload for all to see.
I'm standing under common law so bugger copyright.

We could give it the Mystery Science Theater 3000 treatment.
