Eeek - I don't want it!! (Amazon Prime)

Grrrr - somehow I seem to have accepted a free months trial of Amazon prime!

I really didn't want it & usually manage to avoid all the crafty clicks that would start me off on it. This time however, I must have clicked without knowing because suddenly all my orders are being delivered the next day with no postage.

Sounds alright but what about the time I don't order anything for weeks on end?

I don't want it. How can I stop it?

End Your Amazon Prime Membership

It's easy to end your Amazon Prime membership, or cancel your free trial.

Perhaps just make the most of the free offer, then if you've worked out that over the year it is not worth it to continue, follow the advice on the link below:

Re: Eeek - I don't want it!! (Amazon Prime)

In the "old" days people who wanted you to buy their product/ service whatever would throw you a pitch, browbeat you,entice you and use all sorts of other tactics and techniques to submit.But at least then you had the final option of saying no. NOw they don't bother with all that. They just sign you up. Then it's up to you to negotiate the maze of "consciously uncoupling" from them. And that is, invariably, a very difficult thing to do. hey gamble on you just copping it sweet. At the risk of being growled at, this site is a perfect example. Do you see a "quit site" box obvious anywhere? Sure the admin may say "All you have to do is ask"..I did once. The reply was.."Well you can't really".....

Re: Eeek - I don't want it!! (Amazon Prime)

I now regret that I cancelled my accidental subscription to Amazon Prime. My first year was only $50 and included free postage and their streaming service.

When I look at the current cost it was a bargain.

Re: Eeek - I don't want it!! (Amazon Prime)

My husband has been caught a few times - one time he didn't even notice until he checked his bank account and saw subscription payments going back several months. I have amazon prime because I do order a lot from them, especially during this pandemic, plus I enjoy the TV streaming service and the cheap rate for music on my Amazon echo.

I keep meaning to look into Prime Family (I think it's called) so DH can be signed up to my Prime account and we can share Kindle books. Does anyone else have this?
