Sweet FA? we've had exclusive access to various deals in Prime day. £55 4K Fire TV, £19.99 fire stick. On initial Fire TV release £39.99 rather than £79.99.
You are so correct if Sweet FA means Sweet Full Access.

If you cancel your annual Prime paid membership within the first three months, Amazon reserves the right to charge you (using the payment method you used for the original order and without further notice) for the discount you received as part of this Offer.

Why the bitterness? Welcome to the adult world, things aren't always fair. There's always deals to be had and you surely understand why everything can't be added retrospectively?
Personally when I signed up to Amazon Prime there was an offer on, it was (I think) £59.99 for a year. Additionally, the Amazon Echo which was recently announced which was on offer to Prime members whereby you could save £50.
Anyone off to Whitby on Thursday for the filming? Been asked to go on TV but having 2nd thoughts...

I asked on chat and the guy said yes, later they changed there mind. But I got a survey filled it in as 0 for everything and they asked if I wanted a call to chat about it. I put yes they called had a look at the chat and agreed that I had been told I could have it and credited me a £25 voucher. I guess I got lucky

Woo new FireTV stick? Just phone Amazon if you bought yours within 12 months and tell em it has an audio glitching issue... and then get it replaced with new version which should be better with less issues!!

no it won't/ shouldn't according to the T&C's, with student prime you already get the following for £39 per year:-
• a six-month trial
• 5% discount on millions of products
• Unlimited One-Day Delivery on millions of items
• Unlimited instant streaming of over 15,000 titles with Prime Video
• Over a million songs and hundreds of playlists, ad-free with Prime Music
• Unlimited photo storage with Prime Photos
• Early Access to Lightning Deal offers
• 20% discount on amazon warehouse
• Then half-price Prime (£39/year) after six months, which also includes the Kindle Owners’ Lending Library.
to get the Fire TV Stick deal, you would have to forfeit the student PRIME deal, Amazon are likely to have another deal up their sleeve before the actual launch date

I signed up to a £1 course and got a three year nus extra card for £32. I then got six months free prime and half price prime for three years. I joined today and have confirmed that I qualify for the £25 discount

BBC had their own contracts to fulfill. At the time Clarkson was Top Gear so he was needed to complete the remaining episodes.
People seem mad that Clarkson walked into another job.

has anyone cancelled their current prime, got a refund then got this deal ?
ecnirp98
19 Sep 16#39
Yep, you are correct, the BBC let his contract run out rather than sacking him, which is a ridiculous thing to do after what he did, they should be protecting their staff.
Anyways, I only commented on this as this deal is a promo for the new show, if you want amazon prime it's a good deal, shame they are not doing the deal on the Fire TV though, much better piece of kit with 4K.

Also a good way to get rid of the older model while a new one is on the cards.
My Fire TV stick is pretty snappy in use, voice search works really well and the streamed TV very rarely has issues. Why do I need a faster stick.
The FireTV stick is about 2 years old so probably due a hardware refresh as the components becoming end of line.but they work fine as they are intended, so unless you want to root it and put something else on, or want to play more games on it, being faster or having more memory makes very little difference in the real world.

If you have a 4K TV it probably has Amazon Video and Netflix built-in for 4K anyway so don't need a Fire TV!

So where else for £80 a year do you legally Streaming music access, TV streaming package, free next day delivery, exclusive discounts on products, 20GB of online storage and I'm sure other benefits?
While none are amazing, the price is more than good enough for what we get.

19 Sep 162#9
So what do all us loyal existing prime customers get then? Sweet FA would be my guess.
Always the fire stick discounted too, what about a good deal on the fire tv box for those of us with 4K sets, guess they have a tonne of the sticks to offload...

Yes there are new ones coming, but if you are going to do this and many will for Grand Tour a stick for 9.99 is a good deal.

I don't watch top gear full stop, having Clarkson on Amazon will turn as many customers off as they hope he will bring, rewarding his attitudes and behaviour with a bumper contract after being sacked is a joke.
I pay a license fee as I have to, but most of my watching is on SPMC.

I believe Amazon refund you for the remaining period, which is very rare as usually when you commit to yearly it means you're stuck for a year.

As mentioned (by both of us now!) Amazon does offer existing Prime members very good deals.

I'm not bitter personally, I have had some really good offers with Amazon, just don't think it would have been that much more work for them to have put up a similar offer for existing customers too, keep everyone happy...

No - but the "official" release is on Amazon Video, which seems to have varying results depending on the platform you watch it on.

Not a bad deal but the terms and conditions say it isnt valid on the 7.99 monthly membership unfortunately. Might want to change your description. Good price if you want both though on the years sub. Thanks for posting
