Anyone signing up for Prime after the 26th pays £79.
On 28 Feb 2014, you will be charged £49 for another year of Prime.
I like it because:-
1 - it can deliver not only to billing address, i can get it sent to work.
2 - I can time it to delivery on Saturday (big plus)
3 - 99% of the time i gets here next day, if not I get another month free.
4 - Real time stock levels
5 - It has almost everything I want, with the same level of customer service, from green tea to £2k camera
£79 is now a bit expensive and don't really want the streaming service but over the year I would think the saturday delivery alone would cost more than £100.
I do wish they offer the streaming service as an upgrade price with discount if you are a Prime member, as opposed to mandatory.
Over Christmas Amazon kept sending things to me via Royal Mail right in the middle of the Christmas post.
Ended up with 4 extra months thanks to that.
standard rubbish
Isn't Prime just fueling the 'want it now must have it now regardless of cost culture'?
I only choose Amazon when it's the cheapest and only choose Free Delivery, it's not done me wrong so far?
Am I misunderstanding bit point 1 you say prime allows delivery to another address? I've had orders sent to work without prime.
I cant remember the last time I paid postage from Amazon, just choose standard / free 3-5 working days and 99 Times out of 100 its delivered either next day or at worst the following.
Thought I'd try the 30 day free trial, usually just use standard delivery. Just checked my bank and Amazon have taken £79 out of my account.![]()
