1. Log into your family dashboard here
2. Click on 'My Account' in the top menu and select 'Redeem Promo Code'
3. Enter the code EDM900UK in the box and click 'Redeem'
4. Select your child.

Sounds like some sort of dubious adoption service :pac:

And my favourite, Bachelors Walk - the best RTE series!

Agreed - but I hope the original music is intact.

Ipad almost certainly. There's an android app. PS3, well, there's a PS4 app so I'd imagine one was set up for the older console.

if i cancel now does anybody know if it knocks off straight away or will it stay active till the trial period runs out?

i don't want to forget to cancel and end up being charged!

Amazon have unlocked batches of kids shows for all Amazon customers.

Once you're signed up you can cancel immediately so you don't get charged, you'll still have it for the three months. They will probably email you a week or two before the three months is up offering you a reduced deal to stay.

Tried this but keeps just bringing me to a page that asks for a code to redeem. Are they all gone or is it just some browser issue?

I had the same problem, but also went ahead and registered which was a mistake! Because, then when you go back to the initial page and click Get Code, it just brings you to the page to enter code and Zip/Postcode.

I got around it by, when on the initial page, right click the link to get code, and open in an incognito window. You'll get the code to copy there

went through cancellation and it told me at the end i would be cut off on 23 april
think you might need to wait till after 23 may to cancel to get the full 3 months value
