Why does this keep expiring? It's an ongoing offer..
**Sign up for an online course affiliated with the NUS, (link to a lifetime one for £14), then apply for NUS card (£12), go on Amazon chat with a scan of your NUS card and get Prime for £39, any full price rime refunded, plus 6 months free.**
This can all be sorted on the same day, read on..
WHEN YOU HAVE PAID FOR YOUR NUS CARD, DOWNLOAD THE APP, AND SCREENSHOT YOUR CARD. TALK TO AMAZON CHAT TO GET A REFUND ON YOUR REMAINING FULL PRICE PRIME, THEN 6 MONTHS FREE, THEN A YEAR AT £39!!!
Also: You get lifetime student status with the writing course which allows lifetime access, i.e. you're a student for life.
You don't get lifetime NUS membership, all students have to pay for a new NUS card annually (of you can buy 3 years in a row).
Scan and email your NUS card to Amazon customer services and they apply your Student Prime status. (Exactly what they advised me to do, and exactly how it works.)
Buying an online course subscription is a perfectly legal, legitimate way to get student status, entitling you to buy an NUS card.
There may be cheaper courses, but this one offers lifetime access (and might just be of interest, too), so no need to keep buying one each year to get your NUS card.
I did this 2 years ago, it's still working a treat and gets me Amazon Student Prime for £39, Spotify half price, discounts all over the place including 10% off in most Co-Op supermarkets, as well as attractions, restaurants etc.
Buy the coupon, sign up for the children's story writing course, then follow their instructions for NUS sign-up, which are basically as follows:
2. Enter your email address and click the ‘Get your card now’ button.
3. Type ‘Digital Sea Ltd’ as your ‘place of study’ (Digital Sea Ltd is the parent company of WriteStoryBooksForChildren.com).
4. Follow the rest of the steps in the application process.
5. When prompted for your Student ID, enter your ID which is: xxxxxxx whatever student ID they give you, find it HERE: writestorybooksforchildren.com/nus/
Once your card arrives you can sign up for Amazon Student Prime, Spotify etc. If you can't find Digital Sea in their educational establishment list you can scan you're card and email it to their customer services dept (this works for Amazon, with no problems).
If you take out Amazon Prime & Spotify then it's already paid for itself, and then next year you'll just have to renew the NUS card, so it's just £12...
Post your completed children's stories here once completed. :wink:
Update from user Apogee00: Get 6 months Prime free then 12 months at £39
ALSO:
When adding your course details on to the NUS website, it will ask you for your student ID (as issued by Digital Sea). It's on the course website WHEN YOU LOG IN. It may take a day or so to appear, can't remember) but those 1. 2. 3. steps I listed above were copy/pasted and showed my ID which I replaced with 'xxxxx'
When entering your course details, it doesn't really matter what you enter (I don't think), I'd put 'Literature", today's start date and a distant date in the future without taking the p***!
LAST UPDATE (for now): When you have bought your NUS card, download the NUS app. That displays your photo card and all the details you need for Amazon Prime. Take a screenshot and email that to Amazon. Many people have got it all sorted, a pro rata refund for their full price (or £59) prime, and got 6 months free staring from today.

Thanks for this :smile: I find the best value in my card is 10% off at Co-Op. Shame Apple Music doesn't accept NUS.

Haven't got a Co-Op by us unfortunately. My favourite offer is 40% off Pizza Express food and DRINK on a Monday and Tuesday. Great saving

Yep! Plus Tesco often do 20% off Pizza Express gift cards which you can use with the 40% off NUS. :party:

how exactly is that a lifetime student status the title is a bit misleading cos right at the end you say ............ and next year you'll have to renew your card for £12 ????

Because you get lifetime student status with the writing course which allows lifetime access, i.e. you're a student for life.
You don't get lifetime NUS membership, all students have to pay for a new NUS card annually (of you can buy 3 years in a row).

How would the amazon prime student account work it requires an ac.uk email address, which is only given to students at a university

You scan and email your NUS card to Amazon customer services.

Deal is for the course, not NUS.

If you think they writing course is a good deal then that's awesome. Although I posted it as a good way to unlock the benefits of an NUS card.

Sounds like £14 for student status, then £12 a year for the NUS card.
