A couple of weeks ago Vodafone advised of restrictions to my UK Data plan.
This morning Prime video did the same..
So who on this forum has got it in for me...I admit to being a bit controversial at times, but generally speaking I'm a good guy.... would never walk past anyone in need....except the guy who sits outside Lidl with his begging hat funding his beer intake...
I admit to bending the rules to suit....but I still have a UK passport although reside in Spain...feel free to share this with Vodafone and Amazon...
 
Didn't even know Prime Video had a roaming type data limit - every day is a school day

I think YouTube pick that sort of thing up with their systems.
I had the same thing with a ELO track I used on a video.
It's those damned bots that are to blame. :xangry:

Further to above, Amazon.UK cancelled my account this morning and activated my Prime account in Spain, which I do use for buying my dear wife expensive gifts....new coffee machine, halogen oven, cordless drill etc....but the cheeky beggers took a whole year subscription to Prime without asking first, this in itself caused a problem as it flagged up an unauthorised card use......card frozen by me.....naughty Amazon.ES.....

I was looking at the spanish site yesterday. I see it is 3,99€/month or 36€ if paid in full? Seemed a lot cheaper than the UK?

** have you paid twice then if you already had the Uk one ,Martin ?
 
Hi Richard....got a refund on the UK Prime...has a lengthy conversation with Prime ES.....they told me that I had Prime on trial for a month when I bought Judith an Electric drill late November....must have unknowingly ticked something I shouldn't have....bit of a coincidence I must say. 36€ a month...not bad..

I was fed up with amazon taking the annual fee without notifying me they were going to. Every year it causes me issues as I only transfer enough money to that card for when I need it.

During the cancellation process I was forced to look at the settings and there is a notification setting that defaults to off. You can turn it on so they will notify you before it is due.

Wasn't me but knew restrictions were coming in regarding Prime! Apparently Sky have some deal with Amazon to allow uk prime to be available after 1st January to allow broadcasting it abroad, will wait and see I suppose unless someone knows whats happening

36€ a year I hope you mean! It's a lot cheaper but you don't get all the content that you do with amazon uk unfortunately

Yes a Year, but I have to make do with Amazon.ES...that's where we are...

As for access to shopping, that remains problem free, except when they fail to advise you that you packet has been lost (Nicked) while on route to me.....made a nice Christmas gift for Auntie Pam.....

Amazon UK have allowed me access for 13 years, but there appears to be something different now, cannot think what it could be....?

Not wanting to start a brexit debate. But we leave the EU completely in a few days. Things are changing. What companies may have let people get away with in the past they may not be able to do so in the future without repercussions.

You jumped to the conclusion you were grassed up and ignored the very big change that happens on the 31st at 11pm... I am going to leave it there.

Either I misunderstood the meaning of ironic or....

Sarcastic I could understand but there were no clues to this being intended to be a humorous post. If I have misread then I apologise.

Why not cancel both then take out a Spanish phone contract and a Spanish prime account as you're a Spanish resident.

Actually I've just done that...@jumartoo has a Spanish mobile with data...but the Vodafone 100gb was great for travelling.... don't get that sort of deals in Spain...another 20gb data plan is due soon...
As for Prime....that's sorted too...

Thanks for the tip on this. However, I see that they only give you 3 days warning! Clearly, they want to minimise the chance you might change your mind.

Rip of Britain again, Netflix charge the same in Euro for the rest of Europe as we pay in pounds. Daughter in Thailand only pays £2.99 a month for Netflix.
