Amazon

Surprisingly I was very sanguine? No 2FA but I don't think that makes any difference here. If it was a scam then the scammer aimed to high and the bank wanted verification. I have a specific account for Amazon use only so there is a limit to how much I could loose.

2FA is an issue for me as there is no mobile coverage here.

Amazon allows 2-step verification with popular one-time token apps like Google Authenticator and the likes, no mobile coverage needed.

Not an addresspal no.

Google maps says UPS.

I'm getting fed up changing my password, but I've done it yet again. Its half random and 21 mixed characters.

Amazon send me a code to my email account every time I log in anyway.

Changed password after the £1k transaction and again since. Good password and I think because I use a VPN Amazon send the code each time.

Spent sometime checking for root kits and found nothing. Transactions seem to occur if I leave a session logged in and I leave it for an hour or so?

I think it might be internal to Amazon. One reason being the way the rep dealt with it when I asked about a second unauthorized transaction. Can't remember why I checked but I noticed a cancelled order for an iPhone that was to be delivered to the address above. The rep just said it not to worry about it as that sort of thing happened sometimes 😲

Just wondering if anyone knows if you get the same subscription of music through Amazon prime as you do with Amazon Music?

To return an item containing Li-Ion batteries to Amazon, you will need to use a courier service that allows shipping of hazardous materials, as An Post does not accept these items. Couriers like DHL, FedEx, and UPS generally accept items with Li-Ion batteries, but they may have specific packaging requirements due to safety regulations. It's important to check with the courier first and ensure the item is properly packaged according to IATA guidelines for battery transport. You can also contact Amazon customer service for advice on their preferred couriers for such returns.

I had an item to return to amazon yesterday. Item cost was £19.99. The return label was for a UK address. It's an awkward size and An Post said it would be €22 to post. Amazon said they'd cover up to £9 of the return cost. I contacted support asking them if they would cover the extra. They said that due to the low value of the item they would just refund it and I didn't have to return.

So you could try that approach?

They won't issue a label if its LI, and An Post won't accept them.

Folks, quick question. I know Amazon factors in Irish VAT, but I recall that when a consignment exceeds €150 in value there is some potential customs fee as well.

I'm looking at buying 2 tablets at €121 each. When I change the quantity to 2, it shows a smaller price for the items and adds an "Import Fees Deposit" instead. While the final price looks roughly correct (i.e. twice the price of 1 tablet) I'm wondering if this "Import" stuff means it could be eligible for customs charges too.

Should I order them separately?

Amazon UK so likely from the UK.

Twice in the past 24 hours I've had notifications of delayed deliveries, both delayed to the only day of the week I can't guarantee someone will be home. Both times customer services have arranged next day delivery and both times they've said I'll get £5 Amazon credit

I have prime. According to the tracking the stuff had arrived in the country, I'm guessing it was just trying to manage drivers loads and someone else got bumped. The annoying thing is I got an Amazon delivery earlier, they just didn't bundle the stuff together.
