Except for that...

[LiuJing]

Host A(a native speaker): Please send in your comments on our show and you will be in for some great prizes.

Host B(a Chinese national, renowned English teacher): Yes, that is free English lessons at the Elite Learning Center of xxx College. Except for that, you can get free movie tickets at xxx Grand Theater.

-----------------------------

I just heard this conversation on TV. Did Host B use 'except for that' correctly? I think it should be in addition to that, or besides that. By the way, how about 'apart from that'?

Thank you.

Yes, you are right. Host B used the term incorrectly.
He could also have said, "Additionally ..., Moreover ..." or the ever-popular "But wait. There's more! ..."
