MovieTell.co.in August 12, 2007
Posted by Pallav Sharda in : Movie Rental , trackbackMovieTell is the Indian answer to Fandango (sort of). Although I can’t understand the reason they chose that name, I think their business model is clear- they sell tickets for Indian movie theaters online and make money on the commission.
I guess we needed something like this for the overcrowded Indian theaters. I hate standing in line for the tickets. With MovieTell you can buy the tickets and simply goto the theater (no need for paper ticket delivery) with the credit card used online as a proof. The catch is that they don’t have enough coverage yet.. the service is currently available in only 16 theaters in handful of metro cities. From what I can gather off the lean ‘help’ page, their refund policy looks a bit strict too, so look before you indulge.
In case you are wondering, there is a convenience fee (amount not disclosed online for some strange reason). The page title and logo refers to another domain BigTree.in (?)- I guess they are synonymous. The layout is minimalistic and simple; I like it just for the fact that they are savvy enough to write a “beta” under their name. It’d be better if they explained somewhere what the heck the website does, in case people stumble onto it.
