How to turn off AUTO RENEW? I am only seeing End Membership. TIA!
Quote from bears2006 :
Same question here. I don't see an option to turn off auto renew.
Ending membership allows you to keep to end of term (there are no partial refunds) and will not renew.

Quote from presclutch :

Quote from strawberrycake :
I opted out of prime when it jumped to $119 years ago.

I've purchase only a handful of items from amazon, and only when my shopping cart met the free shipping threshold. Plus, I basically use Amazon to check product reviews. Never even took advantage of their prime streaming either while I was a member.
Most reviews are fake or paid for

It shows how much of a grasp they have that they can increase prices while at the same time A) reducing product selection (more Amazon brands), B) increasing fulfillment times, and C) having a proliferation of shitty Chinese products (e.g. policing review farming, etc).

Most people still won't cut the cord .

That I do know.

Which is why I jump straight to the 1 and 3 star reviews just to get a 'possible' sense of what the product could be. I'll then run youtube searches and random internet searches for user experiences including those on Reddit, etc.

Quote from kwadguy :
According to Amazon, shifting Prime shipping from 2 days to "several" days has meant a lot more stuff is clogging up the warehouses for longer, so they need to pay for warehouse expansion.
Maybe they should have shipped 2 days and saved everyone money?

You're probably right. And agreed on less products, longer fulfillment time...

Maybe it's time to shift to Wally plus?

New members will see the increased prices on Feb. 18, and current members will be billed at the higher rate after March 25. That's a 17% increase.

I get it not just for the shipping benefits, but for the prime video (plus all the 99 cent STARZ, SHOWTIME, etc), prime games each month, prime music, etc. They are pushing me though with this increase. Hmmm.
