Can I Get My Membership Fee Back?

But you can get a refund if you cancel the subscription within 3 working days of switching from free trial to paid membership or signing up.

If you cancel Amazon Prime before using its benefits, you can also get your membership fee back.

How can I save money using Amazon Prime?
What if you are not willing to pay $119 annually but still want to enjoy some of the benefits on Amazon Prime? There are some options for you. You can go with a monthly plan of $12.99. Well, if you pay $12.99 for 12 months, it would cost $155.88 in total, which is more than 20% of your annual subscription. But if you want to use Amazon Prime only at a specific period of the year, i.e. during the offer period, you can save a lot.
If it’s your first time to use Prime, you can simply sign up for free trial for 30 days to figure out if it is best for you. After using it for 12 months, you can get another free trial for 30 days. In order to cover up for shipping delays as apology gesture, Amazon also extends memberships for an additional month. You may contact customer support if you didn’t get any order on time. They might give you Prime free for a month.

How would I know when My Prime membership is expiring?
Simply go to your “Amazon account” and check how long you can use your free trial. Log in to your Amazon account and it will greet you with a message on the top right side. Open the drop-down and choose “Your Account” from other options. Now go to Prime option.
On the next page, you can see the number of days you have used your Amazon Prime membership and the date of expiry of your free trial and when you will be charged for next month or year. If you have some time before the end of the trial or for renewing your membership, simply set an email reminder to remind you at least 3 days before the date of renewal.
If you have Prime membership and Amazon cannot deliver the package on a timely basis by some mistake on shipping, you can simply ask your customer support. They may extend your Prime membership to another month.
