Recap: Uber Eats In Airport Delivery, Audible & Wyndham Lawsuits & More

 

  • Audible class action settlement. Basically lawsuits over credits expiring after cancellation, if you’re eligible then you get to select one audiobook from a pre-approved list. Seems a refund would be more appropriate but I guess Audible/Amazon thought they had a strong case if this is all that’s being offered.
  • Reader Michael sent in a little tip, food purchased through Groupon is powered by GrubHub and triggers the gold credit.

Should we be searching for hidden spy cameras in Airbnbs and hotels?

I have run into that issue with audible. It’s total BS. If you have credits, sign up for gold, and then later cancel, they delete all the credits you had before signing up for gold. Essentially a punishment for cancelling.

Another lousy policy I hadn’t been aware of: “The lawsuits also challenge the adequacy of information provided to Audible customers related to Audible’s practice of charging other credit or debit cards on file with a customer’s Amazon account if a customer’s primary card is declined.”

Unlike most class action settlements, you don’t have to fill out a form for either of these cases.

“If you do nothing in response to this Notice, you will give up your right to object to the settlement or be excluded from the settlement if it is approved. However, if the settlement is approved, you will automatically become a class member.
If you are a Regular Class Member or Gift Class Member, you will receive an email from Audible within 90 days of approval indicating whether you are eligible to select audiobooks from the settlement catalogue as part of the settlement, and if so, the number of audiobooks you are eligible to select and providing instructions on how to select them and Audible will also send you an email between 15 and 30 days before the settlement catalogue closes (which will be at least one year after you receive the original email) to remind you about your selection rights.
If you are a Payment Card Class Member, you will receive an email from Audible within 90 days of approval informing you of how to request reimbursement for documented Qualified Payment Card Expenses.”

(Note that the ‘approval’ that starts the 90-day clock may be many months in the future.)
