YMMV - Current Members - Audible - Spend 4 credits, get 1 free

+14 Deal Score
7,797 Views
Typically this isn't a great deal, but for the people with the American Express Platinum who are using the $20 monthly credit for Audible, this might be useful.

Since the $20 monthly credit for Audible is going away on October 1st, some folks might be getting rid of a monthly Audible subscription. You lose all your credits if you do that, so you need to spend them beforehand.

This is an opportunity to spend a lot of credits and get something back.

Do you lose the credit right when you cancel? I think you get 12 months from the issued date since these are membership credits?

Edit: you do lose them after canceling

I believe you lose your credits the moment you cancel membership. The 12 month timeline is if you maintain a membership, the credits you earn expire in 12 months. You are able to "pause" your membership for like 3 months.

I also received the offer to use 4 credits and get $15 coupon.
I know book credits are lost once membership is canceled but will I lose the $15 credit if I cancel membership?
I am planning to use up my remaining credits before Oct. 1.

I'm hoping it will be provided even if I don't have an active subscription. I'm basing that hope on the following passage from the T&C:

"Claim Codes recipients must have or open an Audible account to redeem Claim Codes."

It doesn't say an active subscription, just an account.

Thanks for checking that. I vaguely recall being able to use a dollar credit without an active subscription so hoping it is the same with this promotion.

This really has no effect on my subscription as I'm a 15/month anyway. THAT SAID. After looking at their plans I'm considering going to the 22/month. I PLOW through books on there and could definitely use 2 a month. Which then... why not just go for the 230 dollar yearly charge as it would overall be cheaper. Damn it.

I wish i had jumped on that 190 dollar deal for it a couple months ago.

They routinely have $99 to $150 yearly subscription for premium plus (12 credits at once). I tried to cancel my membership and they offered 6 credits for $49.99 which I took. I listen to their free audible premium titles a lot too so it's kinda like watered down kindle unlimited membership for six months, but with some pretty decent titles.

Does gifting audiobooks count as using the credits?
