I have Prime but I don’t pay for it. Way back when in college, I got on my parents’ plan as a student. I’ve graduated and moved a few times since then. Still don’t pay.
I don’t get Prime videos, but that’s fine by me.
Lina is fucking awesome
Too bad she loses her job in a month and a half. Ugh
every time i have a ‘trial’, i have to ask ddg how to cancel it. by the time you found it on your own navigating amazon’s site, it’ll fucking renew on you.
Not that this should be what you need to do, but if you can make virtual cards (Capital One does this, I know there are others too), you could make one for the trial and set it to lock after a day or two so when they go to charge it in a week to auto renew it will only work if you’ve gone back and reenabled that card
Cancelling Amazon Prime was easy and required me jumping through exactly zero hoops.
Staying cancelled is a mine field, if you choose to continue shopping on Amazon but not to have Prime. Every single screen has some kind of nag, dark pattern, or outright deceptive path for you to one-click back into it.
I have Amazon prime because for the moment I’m living without a car and it’s fucking convenient. Even then when they drop the new episodes of the boys I pirated it and it wasn’t even some big Grand look at me I’m pirating it bullshit. It was just more convenient to put it in my Plex server. And apparently they started showing ads?
I pirated a Prime show I already had access to just the other day out of annoyance because of their ads.
