Amazon

Anyone having trouble with Amazon website, trying to order but when I click on buy now it just reverts back to shopping basket, can't see any error messages or explanation of what's going on.

I would have expected a message to that effect and a please try later or something like that.

It is as if its gone into a loop. Logged out and back in again, cleared basket and tried again but no luck.

I just tried and went straight into basket and completed sale.

Internet has been weird today, sometimes fine sometimes bad

Have you checked your cookie settings? I find online ordering can be very fussy about that.

Although I tend to think an error message might appear if that is the issue.

Be careful. They keep signing me up to prime. It has happened 6 times so far and getting out takes 20 minutes by phone

Amazon (and many others) just love people who don't actually read the page and whom they can therefore trap with the defaults. It's the modern way.

…. but 6 times?

[Bo’sunParticipant @bosun58570]

Yes, Amazon are very good at tricking you into signing up for Prime!

I'm always wary when using Amazon for the 'Prime' tricks, but they seem to be quite devious enterprising in changing things so hopefully you get caught! However, I wonder if this sort of practice is subject to consumer legislation? Has anyone ever tested this sort of thing in the courts?

I suspect Amazon do have a 'bob or two' to employ knowledgable legal folks though.

Amazon Prime – Once bitten, twice shy!

I try to use anyone but Amazon. It just takes a little more time on the internet (which is almost free).

Mozilla Firefox tends to work better with Amazon for some reason than Chrome or other browsers. That's what their customer support once told me after I complained about having issues
