    No luck for me either as I'm already on Prime since last year's £59 promotion

    I had a quick look at the streaming content like The Expanse and some of it said "Not available in your location". Is this only useful for deliveries in Ireland?

    Yes, from a previous €59 offer although I got it extended by a couple of months for complaints which I made for late deliveries.

    dont know if signing up for a year on prime is a great idea at the minute as a no deal brexit would make stuff expensive with VAT and tarriffs applied come November.

    Bear in mind that if there is a hard Brexit on October 31st there will may be tariffs on purchases from Amazon UK thereafter. I can see myself using the mainland Europe Amazons a lot more going forward which unfortunately aren't covered by Prime UK.

    It's not a bad deal but I would not commit to 12 months of Prime until there is more clarity about Brexit.

    If there is 'no deal', we might not be buying much from amazon.co.uk after Oct 31st....

    Tell 'em you're in the UK to sort out UK Prime Video content. Like I said, too easy.


    Don't change your Irish addresses or anything.

    I did think about Brexit but as I was paying £7.99 a month I thought it was certainly worth a roll of the dice.

    Yeah brexit likely to play some role and still think Netflix is better.

    I just did this on chat ... they passed me on to "The Concern Department" who asked me where I was located, I said Belfast and they changed it straight away. Thanks for the tip!

    I only use it for their TV, not for the quicker deliveries.

    hmmmm just thinking, I subscribe to a channel on twitch, you get twitch prime with this don't you?

    I'd literally cover my twitch costs with this alone (€5 x 12 = 60) with all the other benefits.....

    Is there a downside to this?

    Great alert, had been on 30 day trial and delighted with £59.

    Anywhere I can see the difference between Prime ROI and Prime UK TV?

    Obviously UK Content>ROI content, but is there anything on ROI not on UK?

    I've had it for the £59 for the past year, not found a downside, saved myself a fortune on different wee bits, also cancelled Netflix for a while and just used the Prime Video. As a previous poster said get on to customer service and tell them you're in Belfast, the UK version has much more content

    Just had my region changed to UK. It took maybe a minute all in.

    Cheers to the poster who mentioned it.

    If i was to sign up to this now , would there be an issue in asking to be changed to Belfast, say tomorrow through the online chat? Or would i have to wait through a cooling off period.

    Going to sign up now thanks OP. How would I know if I'm on Ireland or UK settings before getting onto customer service.


    Thanks
