semi-auto Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Have just negotiated another Amazon order without falling into any of the Amazon Prime traps laid for the unwary, or at least think I did. My brother wasn't quite so lucky and had to spend a morning disentangling himself from Amazon Prime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samboy Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 I also ended up with unwanted prime but a quick phone call soon sorted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewulf Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Traps ? You usually get offered a month free, and if you buy much from Amazon , it can be well worth it. If you dont want it , or need to cancel, just go into your account and cancel it. Theres some decent TV as part of the package too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 We use Amazon Prime a lot. The included next day delivery alone is worth it IMO if you order a lot of stuff online. Waiting 3-5 days on a delivery is really annoying these days And we watch the Prime video stuff a fair bit, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres some decent TV as part of the package too. I have been offered, and accepted, a month free Prime, a few times. Sometimes the offer is extended for another month. I'm actually using a free month now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow white Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 I like Amazon but that ruddy prime is a pest so if I want anything of that site I phone my son 150 miles away to order what I want been caught out couple times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmicblue Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 We use Amazon quite a bit, Prime seems expensive initially but when you order stuff throughout the year not paying carriage charges alone makes it worthwhile, you also get access to Prime Video. Amazon along with Netflix are producing original content completely funded by the platforms - now the big name actors aren't working for the studios of yesteryear so much. Some of it is excellent too. Prime also gives you access to music too, for a £7.99 a month more you can access Amazon Music Unlimited, even more tracks that than Spotify and be able to download content to listen to off-line, pay another £5 and have Amazon Music HD, CD quality which is better value than say Tidal. Prime also gives you access to eBooks too. The only bit of the whole Amazon thing that makes me uncomfortable is making Mr Bezos even richer...
