But now I'm wanting to sign up with fatso or movieshack dvd delviering company (still deciding lol)....and I really prefer to pay weekly instead of direct debit monthly, or credit cards....can I just ingore waht they accept and do it my way? Or do I really have to listen 2 them? I mean they would still receive the money regardless of how I did it? I went with DVD unlimited for a free months trial and asked about it, they said they wont accept anything unless its a credit card so told them that restricts my payment options, so asked about APs....they said wont accept them...I would definately be using my credit card as security....but would rather pay in APs so i dont have to worry about using credit card or anything.

Why are they so unflexiable....if it was my company i'd say pay in whatever way is easier...would rather keep/gain customers than lose them due to inflexiable payment options...

Like cheques, a lot of places won't accept cheques for less than certain amounts due to the hassle.
