Today I checked my card statement to find a strange payment for £49 to 'AMZ*Prime Club ' which meant nothing to me.
When I googled it, one hit was this complaint from the USA in respect of Amazon.com (not the UK branch).
However, it seems that Amazon UK are using the same tactic of implicitly enrolling purchasers in this 'club' under a 'free trial' and after a month, automatically debitting their cards without notice. I have not bought anything under the 'scheme' and today contacted Amazon accounts to ask them to cancel the membership.
On checking emails from Amazon I can find none with any reference to this 'club' or my enrolment. Only my card statement shows that they have taken £49 from me.
I am very annoyed by the way Amazon have apparently tricked me and my confidence in the outfit has been considerably reduced.
Has anyone else been taken in by this practice?
