How GameFly Rentals Work
GameFly is currently a disc-based rental service for console games and movies. Members add games and movies to a list called the GameFly Q. GameFly uses that list and its available inventory to select and ship rentals.
GameFly currently rents titles for systems including PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo platforms and also offers 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD movies.
Rental membership features include:
- Games and movies delivered by mail
- Free two-way shipping on rental discs
- No rental due dates
- No traditional late fees while the membership remains active
- The ability to return a rental and receive another title
- A Keep option for purchasing many games currently being rented
- GameLock availability on qualifying membership plans
GameFly Free Trial and Membership Billing
GameFly currently advertises a 30-day free trial for its standard 1-game membership. The current GameFly site states that this trial converts to a $19.95-per-month paid subscription if it is not canceled before the trial ends.
GameFly requires a valid credit or debit card to begin a membership. The company says it may place a temporary authorization on the card during registration for fraud-prevention purposes. GameFly says the authorization is normally removed by the bank within several business days and is not itself a membership charge.
How to Cancel a GameFly Membership
GameFly says members can cancel through their Account settings on GameFly.com.
To cancel:
- Sign in to the GameFly account.
- Open the account or membership settings.
- Use the membership cancellation option.
- Follow the cancellation steps until confirmation is displayed.
- Save the confirmation or take a screenshot showing the cancellation date.
- Promptly return any GameFly rental discs still at home.
GameFly specifically warns members who cancel to return outstanding games or movies promptly to avoid being charged for unreturned rentals.
Canceling the membership and disputing a previous billing charge are different requests. If the issue involves a charge rather than stopping future renewals, contact GameFly Support with the billing date and amount.
GameFly Rental Shipping
GameFly ships rental discs through the U.S. Postal Service using reusable mailers. Its current member information says average USPS shipping time is approximately 2-5 business days, depending on proximity to the GameFly shipping center.
Rental mail does not normally include standard USPS tracking.
When a rental ships:
- The member’s Q is updated.
- GameFly sends a shipment email.
- The disc arrives in a reusable mailer.
- The same mailer is used to return the disc.
Keep the Q reasonably full if you want GameFly to have more available titles to choose from when sending the next rental.
GameFly Rental Has Not Arrived
If GameFly shows a rental as shipped but it has not arrived, do not immediately assume it is permanently lost.
GameFly currently states that a member cannot report a rental as lost until 7 days after shipment, allowing USPS additional time to deliver it.
After the reporting period has passed:
- Sign in to GameFly.
- Open your Q.
- Locate the affected rental.
- Use the Report Issue option.
- Select the problem that most closely matches what happened.
If repeated rental-mail problems occur, confirm that the mailing address in the account is complete and current.
GameFly Returned Disc Has Not Been Received
GameFly rental mail does not normally include tracking, so there may be a delay between placing a return in the mail and GameFly registering it as received.
If a returned rental remains listed as being at home after a reasonable mailing period, use the Report Issue option associated with the rental.
Keep notes about:
- The date the disc was placed in the mail
- Which title was returned
- Whether it was placed in a USPS mailbox, post office or another authorized postal location
- Any support request made about the missing return
Do not purchase a replacement disc and send it to GameFly unless customer service specifically instructs you to do so.
Damaged or Unplayable GameFly Rental
If a rental disc arrives cracked, heavily scratched or unreadable:
- Do not attempt aggressive resurfacing or repair.
- Test only in a compatible system.
- Check whether other discs work correctly in the same console or player.
- Use Report Issue from the GameFly Q.
- Follow the return instructions provided for the defective rental.
If the problem affects several discs, troubleshoot the console or disc drive as well because the issue may not be with the GameFly media.
GameFly Keep a Rental
GameFly’s Keep feature allows members to purchase many games that are currently being rented.
When a member selects Keep:
- The rental is converted into a purchase at the displayed price.
- GameFly sends the original case and available inserts for qualifying titles.
- The rental slot becomes available for another shipment.
Review the displayed Keep price and order details before confirming the purchase.
GameFly GameLock
GameLock allows eligible GameFly members to reserve an upcoming game for shipment at release.
GameFly currently states:
- GameLock is included with Standard and Elite plans.
- Standard-plan members generally need to lock an eligible title at least 30 days before release.
- Elite members generally have a shorter 7-day pre-release deadline.
- Availability is limited to eligible upcoming titles.
Check the current GameLock page and your membership level before relying on a release-day shipment.
GameFly Store Purchases and Shipping
GameFly also sells physical games, consoles, controllers, accessories and collectibles.
Unlike rental discs, store purchases may be shipped through carriers including:
- USPS
- UPS
- FedEx
- DHL
GameFly says the carrier depends on the shipping method and order. Tracking information is emailed when an eligible store purchase ships.
Store purchases and subscription rentals have different shipping and return procedures, so use the order information for the specific transaction.
GameFly Purchase Returns
GameFly’s current purchase policy says customers with an item that is damaged during shipping or does not operate as intended must contact customer service within 14 days of the shipping date to begin the return process.
GameFly may issue a Return Merchandise Authorization, or RMA. Returned merchandise should follow the authorization instructions and include the required original packaging, manuals and documentation.
For qualifying returns:
- If GameFly receives the item within 30 days of the original shipping date, the purchase price may be refunded, less applicable shipping costs.
- If GameFly receives it between 31 and 60 days after the original shipping date, its current policy provides for an 80% refund of the purchase price, less applicable shipping costs.
- GameFly says new or used merchandise returns are not accepted more than 60 days after the original shipping date.
GameFly Pre-Orders
GameFly accepts pre-orders for certain products.
Its current buying policy says:
- The payment method is charged when the pre-order ships.
- GameFly may place an authorization before shipment.
- A pre-order can generally be canceled until four days before the product’s release date.
- If the price falls while cancellation is still available, a customer may cancel and place a new order at the lower price.
Review the current order status before assuming a pre-order can still be canceled.
GameFly Account and Billing Problems
For problems involving a membership charge, payment method or account:
- Sign in and review the membership information.
- Confirm whether a free trial recently converted to paid service.
- Check the renewal date and current plan.
- Review whether another household member uses the account.
- Contact GameFly at 1-888-986-6400 or support@gamefly.com if the charge remains unexplained.
If you believe the account has been accessed without permission, change the GameFly password and secure the email account associated with the membership.
GameFly Privacy Requests
GameFly maintains an online privacy-rights request form for qualifying residents who want to request access, deletion, correction or other rights involving their personal information.
Use the GameFly Consumer Privacy Request Form for these privacy requests rather than submitting sensitive personal information in a public complaint or review.
GameFly’s current privacy notice also lists 1-888-986-6400 as an option for exercising qualifying privacy rights.
How to Escalate a GameFly Complaint
- Use the Report Issue option for a specific rental problem when available.
- For broader account, billing or purchase problems, contact 1-888-986-6400 or support@gamefly.com.
- Explain whether the issue involves a membership, rental or store purchase.
- Provide the title, shipment date, order number or billing date that applies.
- Save support emails and any RMA or other reference number.
- State the requested resolution clearly.
- If a promised action is not completed, follow up on the existing support correspondence and reference the original issue.
For a game-account, console-network or publisher problem unrelated to GameFly’s disc or service, contact the appropriate console company or game publisher rather than repeatedly escalating through GameFly.
GameFly Reviews and Complaints
CustomerServiceNumbers.com currently shows no published GameFly customer reviews and a 0 out of 5 rating based on zero reviews. There is therefore not enough first-hand CSN feedback to identify a reliable customer-service rating or complaint trend.
The previous version of this page said customer reviews often praised GameFly’s game selection, convenience and value while some complaints focused on customer service, shipping times and availability of popular titles. Those statements were not supported by visible CustomerServiceNumbers.com reviews and should not be presented as findings from the CSN review section.
If you have contacted GameFly, useful first-hand review details include:
- Whether the issue involved a rental, membership or purchase
- The type of game or movie involved
- Whether you used Report Issue, phone support or email support
- How long it took to receive assistance
- Whether a missing shipment, billing issue, cancellation or return was resolved
Do not post your account email, password, home address, payment details, order number or other private account information.
