Never happy about the price increases, but I really use my Prime membership - and yesterday I signed up for the Amazon credit card - they gave me a $70 gift card, there is no annual fee, AND it gives you 5% back on anything you buy on Amazon! The interest rate, like most, is 16%, but since I don't plan on building up a balance, that won't be a problem.


I remember about two years ago, Amazon was considering dropping the Prime cost to $12. Their reasoning was that Prime members bought a lot more goods than non-prime members. (So true in my case). But I guess they decided to add perks and value instead.

Ordered a book from Amazon in December 2018. Didn't subscribe to Amazon Prime, requested standard delivery. Received January 2019 credit card statement from my bank showing correct book charge. Paid the statement bill. Nothing else ordered from Amazon. My March 2019 statement showed Amazon Prime charge of $14.14. Contacted my bank, explained situation to fraud department representative. Advised them I would not include Amazon Prime charge with my payment. The only inconvenience, waiting 7 days for a new credit card.

I'm with you. Seems that anytime you call a company for assistance the first recorded message is: "please hold, all our representatives are busy helping others" and "our menu has changed, please select from the following options . . .". Have you noticed that it seems everybody's menu keeps changing. Then you are on hold for who knows how long.
However, you get better and faster service if you are calling the sales department to buy something from them.


If you initiate a Chat with Amazon, an option is to "get a call back". It is almost instant.

It use to be that with a $50 order, shipping was free. Don't know about now. Just be careful to read everything when you order.

If you buy enough on Amazon, Prime more than pays for itself. And Amazon has everything !!
