This can be stacked with the Prime free trial, it appears if you have previously used a free trial on Amazon US you may still be eligible for a free Prime trial on Amazon UK.

Make sure you register for Amazon Prime free trial THEN Audible. You must be a prime member to be eligible for the Audible deal.

I received my £10 email confirmation immediately.

Essentially £10 for nothing if you set a calendar reminder to cancel! (Or cancel straight away)

Gift balance can only be used on products sold by Amazon.co.uk.

Your £10 promotional credit will be automatically applied to your Amazon account and you will receive an email notification when it is ready to use. The credit will only be visible and applied when you place a qualifying order for new items shipped and sold by Amazon.co.uk at checkout. This promotional credit doesn’t appear in Your Account where you will only see gift card balances.

    How hard is it to cancel? Does the 10 quid come with an expiry date?

    • Turd on 12/07/2016 - 13:35

      Promotional credit expires at 11:59 p.m. (GMT) 90 days from receipt.

      Easy to cancel, go to audible.co.uk and login using your Amazon account details, click on your name on the top right, then account details and you can cancel from there. (You may have to override the auto redirect to the Audible AU store)

      When you do go to cancel it offered me another free token to use if I stayed, so if you're actually intending to use Audible for entire trial period that's an added bonus!

      • altomic on 12/07/2016 - 13:45

        or delete your credit card details from amazon.co.uk

      • hetzjagd on 12/07/2016 - 18:38

        Ooo we are missing a step.

        I'm on the Audible UK site, I'm logged in, under Hello AccountName I click on Account Details. Where do I go from there to cancel? I feel like I have tried every option on that page and I'm not seeing the word cancel anywhere let alone any other options to unsubscribe. Not sure how we could be seeing something so different or what is obvious that I am missing.

        • asmcar on 12/07/2016 - 18:44

          I think it's under the: Account Information header where it says membership plan? Sorry my one looks different because i've already cancelled.

        • hetzjagd on 12/07/2016 - 18:47

          @asmcar:

          hmmm thanks for trying.

          this is bad I'm getting pretty nervous. If I force the Audible UK site it lets me login but then redirects to AU when I go to Account Details.

          It seems to force redirect me to .com.au as soon as I login. Changing it to .co.uk takes me to the same default front page and my account still logged in. Then if I click Account Details it redirects to the UK site

          /edit/ it should be fine though. I might just have to email them or call them or something

  • congo on 12/07/2016 - 14:01

    I think this is based on the credit card used?
    ie. If you used the same credit card, then then Amazon will mark you as existing customer?

  • sev snape on 12/07/2016 - 14:10

      yes. i'm considering putting through an order and am at check out with 10 pounds showing. - cancelled prime 30 minutes ago

  • sparkles on 12/07/2016 - 14:26

    Signed up for Prime trial and 10 pounds credit is showing already. Was holding out until the The Grand Tour (aka Top Gear 2.0) starts on Amazon but this deal is too tempting. LOL

    • Caulfield on 12/07/2016 - 14:49

      You have to give payment options for BOTH the Prime trial, & then the Audible trial right? But the subscriptions for each (along with payment details) can be removed immediately yet the trials for each continue for the duration? I assume this is how its done?

  • viki8702 on 12/07/2016 - 14:33

      The combination of the exchange rate and this deal make for some tempting purchases!

      • XeKToReX on 12/07/2016 - 15:01

        Tell me about it, probably would have thrown a fire stick in there too at $40~ if they shipped to Australia!

      • lyl on 12/07/2016 - 15:15

        Weird, when I try adding it to cart it says that 'Deal has ended' (but I'm still able to get to checkout normally). I remember that in the morning it said 'Added to Basket' when I attempted to add it to cart. You sure the deal is still up?

        • XeKToReX on 12/07/2016 - 15:22

      you can't cancel your prime for up to 3 days after trial. Something about verifying your payment method. but you should be able to do once it's verified.

      • [Deactivated] on 12/07/2016 - 15:59

        On the US version you could cancel immediately and still use it all month.

      • hetzjagd on 12/07/2016 - 18:30

        I just started and ended the trial in the same day. definitely on amazon.co.uk and not the US version

  • VTS160 on 12/07/2016 - 15:28

    its like 110.95 GBP. that's 197 AUD. How did you get 185?

    • XeKToReX on 12/07/2016 - 15:51

      Turned out to be $193 posted on a 28 Degrees Card.

      I have no need for the remote as I have a Harmony but if you want the remote, probably best to wait for it to drop with a free remote again.

      • VTS160 on 12/07/2016 - 16:31

        Cheers. its still a better deal if you order remote. I ordered shield and remote for £145.55 which is $250. With shield remote bundle (USD 199) and USD 20 shipping it comes to $285. so its a saving of $35 :)

      I think the real benefit is if you're already looking to purchase something (Or if some more good deals come up as Prime Day UK continues. If you're looking to purchase something small for 'free' then shipping will pretty much always kill the deal.

      • nubzy on 12/07/2016 - 15:41

    These folk asking "any deals to spend the credit on?". Just hold onto it for something you really need. It isn't going anywhere, don't just spend it on anything on a whim because it was free.

    • Turd on 12/07/2016 - 15:50

      you can always register a new account :)

    • hetzjagd on 12/07/2016 - 16:34

      I'm guessing it should be fine seeing as the instructions say you can't apply for Audible until you have Prime. The activating of Prime is probably a formality or something that will lock the account if you don't do it within a week or two. I think the voucher is issued as part of joining Audible, so a Prime account in stasis shouldn't get in the way of that.

    • jimbler on 12/07/2016 - 22:52

      Same thing happened to me. Had to go to the chat on the audible website and get them to add the 10 pounds to my account. Prime still hasn't activated for me, but the 10 pounds is there now.

The product page refers to the offer if you found the correct one).

      That said, whether I stuffed it up and was supposed to wait for an email and activate Prime before registering for the Audible trial - I will have to wait until I can get home and access my email to find out

    • hetzjagd on 12/07/2016 - 16:30

      Amazon are known to have good to fantastic customer service, especially in regards to matters of experience/satisifaction like this. Jump on Amazon, go through the different options (I don't remember them exactly) to get you through to your preferred avenue for customer support (I recommend the online real-time text chat) and then explain to them you want to apply a voucher you just received to a purchase you made just yesterday. If they can do it they probably will.

      • ttlooshan on 12/07/2016 - 16:31

        I'll give this a go but might be a long shot since the order was dispatched already. Will let you know. Thanks.

    Used my 1 Audible credit on "Alien: Out of the shadows" then went to cancel, stating too expensive, and they gave me another free credit :D. So might as well get two free audio books before you cancel.

    • mrshorty on 22/07/2016 - 12:13

      but u get 1 free credit each month as part of the 3 month free audible trial so you should really end up with 3 free audiobooks before u cancel

    I actually am more interested in the 3 month Audible trial than the 10 pounds.

    Question: I have downloaded the Audible iOS app, but it appears to be hooked in to the audible.com.au marketplace rather than the audible.co.uk market place. Is it possible to force switch this over?

    • nubzy on 13/07/2016 - 14:42

      Me too, same problem with the Android app? Anyone know how I can access the audiobooks I download from UK Audible?

      • Marty131 on 14/07/2016 - 15:49

        I ended up downloading the app on the PC, expecting it to download a DRM free file. However, it is very much DRM… And to top it off, the download manager feels like it was made for Windows 3.1 - so yucky.

  • altomic on 13/07/2016 - 01:22

    also , as kwijybo states

    "£5 credit with £30 gift card purchase on Amazon UK"

    so, buy the gift voucher and sign up for audible and get £15 credit (approx AU$25)

  • PainToad on 13/07/2016 - 06:06

    Can the credit be used on the US store?
