Cineworld do the Unlimited Card for 19.99 a month
The card is excellent value as if you were to go to the cinema once a week you would save 22.01 a month on the normal ticket prices. I normally go to the cinema twice a week, so I save 64.01 a month on the normal ticket prices.
Having the card also means that if the film is really crap, you can just walk out without feeling bad about the amount that you spent on the ticket
The 3D "add-on" is also slightly lower if you have an Unlimited Card and you can re-use the glasses a few times if you don't want to pay the 80c each time
Forget the unlimited card, from the irish site at least.
Buy it from Cineworld.co.uk, it's 13.50 which works out at 15.15Euro, and ya can go to all Cineworlds in Ireland

How can you pay for an Irish Unlimited card when it's 30% more expensive than a UK Unlimited card (which works in Ireland!!!)? And you can't get the the UK ones anymore (without a cunning plan, at least) because they cancel UK Unlimited accounts that use Irish addresses. Also, UK card owners only have to pay the first month's subscription up front, while we have to pay for two months? Even though UK residents can pay the much cheaper rate and freely attend cinemas in the UK and Ireland. Talk about double standards.Cineworld do the Unlimited Card for 19.99 a month

They're basically giving us the middle finger and we're thanking them heartily. I cancelled my and my partner's Unlimited cards back in 2007 or so when they bumped up the price into taking-the-mick territory. I'm surprised you can keep paying them and not feel abused, honestly.
It's just a shame other cinemas (in Dublin anyway) aren't technically as good (or comfortable) as Cineworld's. The Savoy's seating levels are too close to each other, so if you have anyone tall sitting in front of you, half the screen is blocked by the back of their head.
Also, I disagree with those saying "don't complain here, just don't pay them". I say don't pay them, but also DO complain here and everywhere, to encourage other people to vote with their feet and effect some change around here. We're being ripped off in many more ways than one and the more people talk about it, the more we'll do about it (unlike, apparently, the OP, who just talked about it
).
(BTW I'm glad this is not in the 'rant' forum, because I prefer when people can disagree with me/others and generally debate freely)0 -
