Recently I've got quite into listening to audio books on the way to work. I drive and hour each way, so 8 hours per shift. I can eat through a book in two shifts normally.

I've looked at the packages £3.99 per month for 3 months which rises to £7.99 after the trial. Anyone had much luck in negotiating a figure after the trial if you say you will cancel?

The 24 books for £109 interests me most of all, again anyone had any offers or negotiated it lower on cancellation?

I know I can download them for free, but I will pay for something I like so that these services can continue :)

Also my home internet sucks at times, can I log into a computer at work and download them then transfer them to my device?

Thanks for any help :)
 
Ah thanks, I was hoping they would be like lovefilm or sky where they bendover to keep you :)

Not that £5 a book isn't good value anyway :)
 
Cheers Flibster, I would use my phone too if I had your data plan ;)

I guess I will just do the 3 months for £3.99 then buy the 24 for £109 :)

Do you use the iphone app to download them?
 
Ah right they aren't as massive as I thought :)
So when you buy them even if you leave audible they are still yours to keep?

I think I'm going to sign up today :)

Mrs was struggling for a birthday present for me this year, this could be it :D
 
Well I've already emailed them and told them to poke it and give me my money back. I registered for a trial £3.99 and signed in. Books I wanted like Star Wars Darth Plagueis dissapear from the search options once logged in. 3 others do as well. Yet it clearly says get this for £3.99 on a 3 month trial!

No where does it say your options are limited on a trial :mad:
