Never Pay Amazon delivery charges again !

Options
You all know about Amazon Prime, and if you sign up to their free trial you don't have to spend £20 for free delivery.
So what do you do when the free trial has expired ???

Pay for delivery ???

NO !

Get yourself an alternative email address (there are many webmail sites, eg. www.mail.com) and set up a NEW account with Amazon.

You can still register your existing credit/debit cards with this new account. Amazon recognises this as a NEW customer.

So sign up to another free trial of Amazon Prime trial as a NEW customer, and you qualify for free delivery for your order.

Don't forget to cancel your free trial.;)

Want more ????

Just get yourself another alternative email address, register for another NEW Amazon account and off you go again !

If you're a bit bamboozled with having 3+ Amazon accounts by now, you simply cancel them - you're only using them once.

As regards the alternative email addresses, they usually cancel themselves because many webmail services close the accounts after about 90 days of inactivity. You're only going to use this email once anyway.

    Or be like me and stay so far north that Amazon can't deliver next day. They did manage it once in 2 years+. If they don't deliver next day I contact them and they give me another month free.

    You're making a false representation in order to get a financial advantage. That is fraud. They are clear that you are allowed one account per customer.

    I hope you get found out, in which case they'll ban you. Abusing an offer only means they will be less generous with other customers.

    got a link to that?


    and where is the "false representation" if you sign up with your details, not faking anything?


    Good luck making that stick


    Have you never used a code on website for example you probably shouldn't have gotten?


    Never cancelled with a phone company and signed up as a new customer for a better deal?
