I was subscribed to Amazon’s much advertised Prime this month. But had horrible experience https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_sad.gif .

My main reason for Prime was to get products quickly but after subscribing to Prime I came to know that courier guys really don’t have any idea of this product. I am receiving products like before, Amazon fulfilled orders. There is no such quick delivery. https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_evil.gif

Amazon have not at all trained their courier staff regarding Prime. They are simply selling this product on their site, but on ground there is not much difference in terms of delivery. https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

Since its a busy season for them with 3-4 so called “Great Indian Festival” sales, they might have hired bunch of lazy guys to do the job, which resulted in fake tracking updates, delayed delivery, which was not expected from Amazon https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_rolleyes.gif

Even though Amazon US funding truck load of money to Amazon India, I see their service going downwards only. I am not sure whats the reason https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_cool.gif

Also prime free shipping does not apply to all products. https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_eek.gif

After series of bad experiences, contacting their support many times, I end up cancelling their Prime, as I was not getting the Prime benefit. Read their terms, you may not get full refund of Prime, you will get only proportional amount https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_rolleyes.gif

The only benefit you can get is, if you buy lot of penny products regularly https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_lol.gif then free shipping comes useful.

Think twice before subscribing to Prime because delivery time is same as before. Why to waste additional 500 for such fake product.

Please share your experience about Prime, whether Amazon providing you full benefits what they are promising?

An update for all prime haters. It was funny when I asked a supervisor about the penalties for missing delivery timeline. Instead of telling me what I asked she came up with a new explanation (it’s not true actually though fast prime shipments are always fulfilled by ATS)

Amazon:Yes and I would like to inform you that the Amazon Prime is for Amazon fulfilled orders + Ats courier that is amazon courier services .
And this package is assigned to IPS that is India post and we cannot promise a prime delivery with India post courier assigned to your package .
We apologize for the inconvenience .

Prime need not be always through ATS… i have recieved through India post and bluedart as well…..


I’ve been following your posts about Prime. You think all those who write negatively about Amazon services do so based on one or two bad instances? Most of us are long-time avid online shoppers to the extent of being called Amazon fanboys. It is only after repeated interactions with different levels of their support team that we conclude things. Moreover, it’s more than just Prime that we are concerned with here. So, it’s better to stop being all nice about them and start looking at facts. Hope you get it.

Dear Amazon agent
I also faced bad experience with Amazon prime

Are you calling me an Amazon agent? https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_confused.gif


Never call yourself a fanboy even if you are one.. https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_wink.gif


hehe… I never do that. It is @FeelMyL0Ve who always tags me with that name.
Hope arshey is not calling me a dumbo by doing that. https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

Whatever may be the node, it does not take complete 4 days for item to reach another destination in same state. We are talking about Prime. In other cases, its fine but paid subscription not so fine.

I rather get my Products from US in 4 days to Bangalore.


If it was not delivered within the timelines contact CC. We are entitled for compensation because prime is a promise of assured service and defaults should be penalized. There are always exceptions at the warehouse wherein they would have forgotten a package in such regional offices but never are amazon updates fake.They mention the status as is because the system is bulletproof and doesn’t allow any manipulations.


Btw what’s the compensation ? https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_rolleyes.gif
I was given delivery estimate of 25oct but still I haven’t received.

Usually amazon.com gives one month prime extension. That is what I am trying to ask them but they don’t know or don’t want to talk about it. They are refusing to just answer that particular question of mine and just insist on getting my product delivered asap.

Seeing my barrage of mails they gave me 50 rs compensation which I have asked them to remove and still insisting on answer to my question. By the way another dimer mentioned that he got one month prime extension.
