    Big Thanks to OP

    Got Brain training game for Nintendo DS For £ 1.98 delivered plus £3.99 for 1st months rental

    So all in all saved £11.01 for a couple of minutes work and went through cash back rewards so may even earn a couple of pence cash back too


    Brilliant

    Thanks
    Vicky

    This may be useful to some folks.... here's how I got the initial £3.99 refunded.

    Remember this is only possible if you have not rented any DVDs, and do not have any "dispatching soon" or dispatching dd/mm/yy). i.e. If you think you might want a refund of month #1 do NOT add any DVDs to your queue. IIRC you have 7 days in which to seek this refund.

    Cancelling the subscription online is the first part.


    For me at least that second part (getting the £3.99 refund) meant

    1: Go here : http://www.amazon.co.uk/dvdrentalhelp

    2: Clicking this button (on the right hand side)

    Contact Us

    Get Express customer service or contact us by e-mail or phone.

    3: Logging in

    4: (Possibly) stating the query is not related to a recent order

    5: Choosing the "Issue" : "Request refund after cancelling service"

    6: I wrote "I have cancelled my DVD rental subscription in accordance with my statutory rights and request a refund of my first month's subscription fee."

    I received a reply 2 days later :

    <snip>On checking your account, I can confirm that you have closed your
    DVD Rental Membership.

    Therefore, I have requested a refund to your payment card in the
    amount of your subscription fee of 3.99 GBP.<snip>
  • Got the 2 books I wanted for £0.99 delivered! Thanks to Jazzking for bringing this offer to our attention and well done for crediting the OP. :beer:

    my order has not been dispatched yet, should i cancel the dvd rental now or once it has bneen dispatched?
  • Hmmmm I have the banner, but its only for £10 - strange! Maybe it's based upon what you are ordering.

    Yes it does depend what you have in your basket. When I added products from other sellers on amazon, I see a £10 voucher with a DVD rental but when I enter products from amazon.co.uk, I get the £15 from Amazon Mastercard signup
    I wanted to thankyou a million times but its a shame that I can press the button just once :T

    To be on the safe side, I would wait until it's been dispatched and then cancel/request refund as above.

    However, my order was dispatched today, I logged in to cancel and noticed i had a 6 week free trial on the DVD rental so thought I may as well use that and then cancel at the end of Oct! :D No money has been taken off my card yet...:T
