Tell them you want your money back. They are a shower.

If you order plenty of stuff it makes sense to have it. They will even get someone to drop it round on a Sunday which can be really handy. I realised I had run out of Razors, ordered some on Saturday afternoon and had them the next day. Excellent service.

I have the trial, but wasn't aware they would assume subscription, nor that it was anything like that money!!!

Next day delivery is useful as is free return postage.

Negative is that very many items are not offered with the "Prime" eligibility!

actually the more you order the worse value it becomes.
The prime delivery saver gets less and less until it simply means you get the goods the next day but still have to pay the delivery even if you have the annual payment

Even more like Tesco then where the adverts are never quite what they seem.

Dustybin what youve written makes no sense or you don't understand prime. You get free next day delivery. So if you purchase 1 item per year the delivery will have cost £79. If you buy million items a year it works out considerably less per item

And anyone who doesn't realise free trials turn into paid subscriptions when they expire shouldn't use the Internet. Or leave the house with supervision as it's not safe


Big Amazon fan and soon they'll have a monopoly on online shopping, cloud storage and on demand tv

I always thought Tescos strength was very strange considering its lack or originality and the competition it faced (I now buy my groceries at a petrol station featuring an M&S!!)


If I was buying shares in a company it would be Amazon, it has a Google like monopoly on online retail. Its TV has the potential to kill Netflix and its ondemand music has a poor library but with a bit of work could easily compete with Spotify etc. I believe its already one of the biggest Cloud storage players

Yeah prime is great value if you order lots of stuff from there.
Report dustybin • December 30, 2015 9:18 PM GMT
When you first start using prime the deliveries for next day are indeed free.
However once you have used it a lot the option to take next day delivery increases on nearly every occasion compared to free p+p with a delayed delivery for the same item.
There must be a calculation where they think you've had your monies worth for the year and the subsidy drops.

It's mainly due to my own laziness I know I should stop using the loathsome entity but I spend tens of thousands every year at the place.
Report Zazu • December 30, 2015 9:27 PM GMT
Ive had prime for 2 years and never had any problems. Its free delivery for anyone at the address and we get deliveries most days.
Report dustybin • December 30, 2015 9:31 PM GMT
Try comparing to other sellers without prime.
Amazon charge retailers for listing as prime ergo the cost of delivery is in the cost of the product.
There is a cut off where you therefore have had the value.

Amazon have already admitted to offering different prices to different people on the exact item based on previous purchases.

A solemn hymn released by the Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West (PEGIDA) unexpectedly hit no.1 in the German singles chart in time for New Year’s Eve, but distributor Amazon has signalled their displeasure by giving away their profits to a pro-migrant charity.

The wordless hymn pushed even top-selling artist Adelle aside in time for the New Year’s Eve best seller list, as supporters of the anti-immigration and pro-Western culture group rushed to buy the single. While it has been panned in the left-wing press, PEGIDA founder and leader Lutz Bachmann reached out to his opponents in the mainstream media and thanked them for generating so much publicity for the song.

Yet some have been disturbed by the success of the hymn ‘Together We Are Strong’, including online music giant Amazon who have promised to snub PEGIDA by donating their cut of the proceeds from sales to a pro-migrant charity. A spokesman said: “Amazon’s profits from selling this song will go to a charitable organization for supporting refugees”, reports TheLocal.de.

The PEGIDA leadership have also vowed to give their profits to charity — although presumably not one that supports mass migration.

Such snubs to the patriotic group are by no means unusual. From the earliest days of the strolling movement elements of the German establishment have colluded to freeze the group out of public discourse, and a number have made symbolic protests to display their distaste.

One of the most visible signs of this is the turning off of street lights and illuminations of prominent public buildings when PEGIDA are walking or rallying nearby. Dresden’s opera house, which also flies banners displaying anti-PEGIDA messages outside and Germany’s left-wing establishment church most often indulge in these protests.

PEGIDA members themselves have found a way to get their own back on these buildings, and illuminate the sites themselves with smartphone lights and torches.

Amazon prime is £79 a year so £6.50per month. That includes, TV, music, storage and free delivery.


Try working for them

Could say that about a lot of firms.

Online retailer Amazon will allow people to spread payments of items over four years

Amazon is to let customers pay for goods on its website in installments, as the online retailer steps up its attack on the UK high street.

The US giant, led by founder Jeff Bezos, will offer loans of up to four years for orders totalling more than £400, subject to a credit check.

Amazon Pay Monthly charges an interest rate of 16.9pc but no deposit is required.
