What's the score with nus card now? I have had mine for few years never used it last year but got another today.in past all I did was go on to nus site got code and then on Amazon site and worked. But I'm reading now about Amazon student do you need to be part of this for it to work now? Also in past you could use the 5% discount right away before getting your card as code to use was on site when logged in. But why is it not working?
Also what are the benefits of have Amazon student if you already have nus card even more % off? It says something like 31st October 2016 this Amazon student ends?? That's less than month away. Very confused about it all before nus card was all I needed and my main reason was for Amazon like before but will use it on other site etc too this time.

So how do you use Amazon these days with this card seems to be changed last time I used it with them I went on nus site got a code and added it to my basket and took discount off, does not seem to be the way now? Or is it cause I ordered card today I'm not able to use yet? Any years previous could start using right away. But it's this Amazon discount thing that I'm confused about now do they require you to sign up to Amazon and show your card now to get discount

Not too sure, when I tweeted them they said that I had to be within 28 days of expiry for the three year to activate. But it usually lets you select it from a drop down menu

Well changed mone to study at home hopefully all good could have got three years but happy with 1yr at a time for now. Did have to pay £1.50 for postage. Changed times when all you paid was £12.

Im also sure last time i used this just log into it got code for amazon and entered it into amazon checkout has it all changed? Do you now need to show them a scan now? Im now overseas so prime maybe not work for me but what do you gain from prime if i did? I want to use asap with amazon then whatever else I had my card last yr and never used it once. And im sure when i renewed last time you selected stuff from site. Now its asking where im at with no options?

Mine expired few months back so whats happening when renewal can you still get it? Whats happening about getting the card delivered to your home address? Has things changed trying to renew this? Interested in getting another year again

Try it, go through the process and if it takes you to the last page to pay and says it'll charge you for postage then you're on the right track :smile:

I renewed a Endsleigh one but changed my Uni to "learning at home". It asked for my unique [email protected] student number and I simply entered my DOB and it accepted it. I just purchased a 3 year one with delivery to my house.
Fingers crossed it arrives!

I noticed this just as I was about to renew mine. Had two so far, thought it looked a bit too good to be true when they let you edit your study dates to add a couple more years on...

Just done the same... then noticed delivery address after paying!!
Only way round this i think is to use the app and just say you lost the card - on the app it shows my expiry date as July 2017 now ... card will be in ensleigh me thinks.

One way...
Sign up to a £2 course here https://www.gogroopie.com/deal/1r2qndqd0y/_1_99___Choice_of_5_Courses
Email Shaw academy and ask for your student number (not 100% necessary)
Can't be bothered reading 5 pages of comments... How do you get this if you're a non-grad? thanks

More knowingly dishonest smears. She has never behaved remotely as you describe. If anything she is typical of the tired Politically Correct left-wing student sloganeering cliche of the last 50 years.

Only some Universities ask for it to be sent. You'll know if not because it'll ask for your home delivery address.
I know Sussex University don't.

You can get a three year card when your card is in 28 days of expiry for £32. So roughly £10 a year :smile:

You need a university email for that, when you graduate, you no longer have one. Bit of a silly cold rep?

Cool, what I did was type in the Shaw academy and when it asked for my student number (which I couldn't find anywhere) I just put N/A in the box. Ordered the nus card and they accepted, will be with me within 7 days. Also while waiting I can now use the nus website to log in and take advantage of certain discounts.

Hmmm - my NUS card runs out in July, hopefully I can get this Extra card for 12 months or longer, and guess I need Extra in order to obtain discounts.

How do you join SB? You need a proper ac.uk address, acceptance letter or an academic transcript? They don't allow NUS.

you dont have to be a uni student. if you know anyone in secondary school or college aswell , just borrow their email. it has to be an ac. email

27 Apr 16#8
pick your local uni....just pick a course from the drop down menu when signing up. you pay £1 to get the card sent to your home address and not the uni
You can't. Find someone who has a uni email address

I remember when I was a student (6 years ago) they would only post the cards out to the student union. They know full well lots of non students use their card, it's all about the ££

See this thread too if you are just after the NUS card. Loads of info there http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nus-student-extra-card-for-everybody-13-nus-including-half-price-amazon-prime-many-2393353?p=27887324
Can also join Studentbeans with just the £1.99 Shaw course, and may make you feel a bit better about applying for this card if you are actually on a course :smile:

You can share the delivery benefits of normal prime with 4 other 'family members' although they don't actually have to be family. Also they have recently introduced 'household' where you can also share some other benefits with a household member.
Don't know about student prime though
