    Still having trouble after downloading the app. When I try to order, I get the following error message:

    “I’m sorry but I can only shop in the primary language associated with your Amazon account. If you’d like to switch languages, go to Settings in the Alexa app, select your device, and then select Language.”

    When I open settings, there's no option to select this device (Google pixel 3). There is a 'alexa on this phone' option but no language option within that menu

    Go onto Amazon chat and they will fix it for you.

    I would say your account is set to amazon.com instead of amazon.co.uk

    I was on to chat there ans they said I can't order it as I don't have a UK credit card or bank, even though I'm using revolut card and have most things delivered to parcel motel

    No this should be ok. I just added to my basket from the alexa app on iphone also. Maybe just check all your location settings etc.

    Did they say anything about needing a UK credit card or bank?

    I was onto Amazon chat for ages and got bounced around to 5 different people. Eventually got it to work by adding it to my basket, then using the alexa app to checkout ("Alexa, checkout my basket please").

    Got a rundown of what was in the basket and the price. Confirmed, delivery tomorrow.

    The guy I spoke to definitively stated that the Irish debit card should not make a difference.

    Used revolut sterling account as I never pay Amazon conversion as they rob you.

    Just go to hot uk deals page and get the deal and will bring you to amazon page and checkout there with discount applied!

    I tried this approach and went through to the checkout but price still remains at 49.99 for me

    I tried this and it wouldn't work. The basket trick did, but I was unsure if it was the chat guys who had done something in the background or not. Good to hear it worked for someone else.

If you install the amazon alexa app on the phone how do you order it from there?

Press the Alexa button at the bottom of the app screen and say "Alexa I want to buy Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K ultra" that will add it to your amazon basket. Go to checkout on the amazon app and the discount will be applied.

    
This will also work for an Amazon Echo Show 5 which gets reduced to £49.99, again go to app and say "Alexa I want to buy Alexa Echo Show 5 Black/White"

Managed to get this working, set up a UK address with a revolut card.

    
Got to Amazon.co.uk/mycd and select preferences if there is no preference at the top then your region is wrong so go to Amazon.com/mycd

    
Once you select preferences then select your UK address/parcel motel and region to UK. Update it, at the top you should have a notification to click learn more about migrating your devices, select it and and change the region there to the UK for all your devices. Try again then

    
Added to basked and checked out! All good and I think my prime Is UK now aswell

If you have your card associated to ParcelMotel, they will take the money out when they receive the parcel, or so I think. You can also go into PM portal and add credit to your account.
