I've got on to the UK prime after a phone call to them and I've loads of content. All I have is a prime membership and get the included with prime stuff.

My question is how much better is the paid version? It's hard to find info online.

You are getting access to the 'paid version' through your Prime Subscription. There isn't any difference in the content you'd be seeing if you were paying for Amazon Prime Video as a stand alone subscription.

Oh really. I was wondering why I couldn't find anything else on it that wasn't to rent or buy. That's great thanks, I didn't know that. God bless Amazon with that and prime music and free books and magazines etc. It's a brilliant service.

Same, heard rave reviews of it, and I do like Timothy Olyphant, but I watched a couple of episodes and it just seemed really soap-ish to me...maybe I need to give it more time?

I felt the same and wondered what the big deal was. It does get better for me though it's the second season where the quality takes a huge jump and it's great from there on. It's just a little bit of a rocky start.

Futurama added to Prime.

How much of it? The Fox seasons, or does it include the Comedy Central ones?

Love that show so much, well up for a rewatch (see if those latter seasons are better on second viewing)

The Man in the High Castle, Bosch, The Boys & The marvellous Mrs Maisel that should keep you going for a while.

Jack Ryan is good too, season 2 coming soon...

Cina · 14-08-2019 08:22AM

Patriot is the best show on Prime. Criminal that it's not more popular!

Justified is also excellent

Went onto amazon chat on the app last night and asked my location to be changed to the UK. They updated my location without question so now I have the full uk prime. Must get asked a lot!

I see it was cancelled after season 2 linky

Is it still worth watching?

The first season is worth checking out. It has a fairly unique style and humour - if its for you then the second season is more of the same

How can I double check i am on UK Prime Video?

E.g is there any current programmes only showing on UK?

Thanks

So if you change location, do you still pay €6 a month?

Mr Crispy · 15-08-2019 10:49PM

What do I need to do to get switched over to the UK Prime Video content? Is it full proof?

Contact them on the live chat. Can be tricky enough, took me 4 attempts.

Cheers. Do you mean they weren't able to do it, or the first three customer care peeps were unwilling to do it?

Unwilling.

Do you do it on the website or what ?

Full_Circle_81 · 16-08-2019 07:28AM

While I still advocate for the service all the time (especially where tv shows are concerned), it can still be a bit of a hot mess at times. Like Fleabag being a Prime Exclusive, but only season 2 is available here, while both seasons are available in the UK. This seems more like an oversight, but there are so many examples of this.
Plus their subtitle situation can often be wildly hit and miss.

sweetie · 16-08-2019 10:19AM

I was able to change without using customer service chat. I had my delivery and credit card addresses set to parcelmotel. Then I went into my cc (revolut) and set it to the same address. There's a section in your account, content and devices, make sure it's set to UK.
