Today when I clicked the link here I got a window reading “The promotion URL is invalid” but when I did a google search on “kindle unlimited months free” and followed the first amazon link presented, I got 2 months free on my primary amazon account (on which I’ve done this deal previously at least twice.
My last free KU ran out yesterday. This morn I clicked the link – 3 free mos. Thank you Kindle, Thank you Chuck. Will give it a few days, cancel the subscription, and enjoy another 90 days of reading. The price I pay is about what it’s worth – it’s my fallback if I don’t have any good books to read.
If you like KU but don’t like the monthly price, you can always sync your Kindle with a bunch of books and then put it in airplane mode until you’ve finished reading them. Your KU subscription will end but you’ll keep your books until you connect your Kindle to WiFi.
Not eligible. I want to thank Amazon for saving me from signing up for this again, barely using it for two months, forgetting to cancel, and paying them $8.99.
You can cancel the subscription immediately after you start it and it’ll still be active for the 2 months.
so if the link says you aren’t eligible, as others have posted, go to amazon directly and Kindle unlimited and it may/should show up (it did for me, even though i’ve done this several times in the past).
It appears to have been extended through Dec 31, 2021
Worked for me, thanks!
Any list of books to read or download from the K.U.? I mean you can only borrow the books for a few weeks… right?
You can have ten books borrowed at any time… there’s no limit to how long you can have any given book out, as long as you have KU membership.
How dare they refuse me from getting something I never used even though I signed up for the free offer a few times in the past, and probably wouldn’t use even if they gave it to me again.
Not limited to Prime members. I do not have Prime and was able to sign up for this. Still says “Try Prime” in the upper right corner offering me a 30-day free trial. Even pulled up a book in the cloud reader to make sure it worked.
Extended to March 31, 2021
“This promotion has already been redeemed.
Offer limited to one per customer and account”
Meh. Still not valid for me. 🙁
When I clicked on your link Amazon said offer not valid. I closed out that offer and went to the Amazon site where I now had the two month free offer!
where would you see such an offer?
Now reads “Redeem before 11:59 p.m. (PST), December 31, 2020”
OMFG My *FIRST* official DoC Hat Tip … this is a proud day for me
“This promotion has already been redeemed.” My free trial expired 2 months ago
I got a 6 month offer after buying my Fire 8 Plus during the promotion last month…
It looks like (a) it’s been extended to Oct 12 and (b) they let me sign up for two months free again even though I already got it three months ago. YMMV of course. (After my free two months they offered me another month for free which I took, and it expired yesterday. I did not expect it to work again but it did)
Just signed up W/O having Prime. Wanted to find out if it was for me anyway. Thanks for posting!
Actually now says:
We’re excited to offer 2 months of unlimited reading for free.
Redeem before 11:59 p.m. (PST), September 30, 2020.
I was able to get the 60-day free trial, and I’m not a Prime member.
Looks like extended until June 30
Not valid for me…boo! 🙁
same same
Not valid for me either. Says I took this offer.
Looks like this has been extended (at least for me): “We’re excited to offer 2 months of unlimited reading for free. Redeem before 11:59 p.m. (PST), April 30, 2020.”
It says existing subscribers are not eligible, but I pay monthly and tried it anyway. It set my next payment two months from today. Nice. 2 free months.
Worked for me!
Any idea how long this promo will stay alive? My current “3 months for $1” subscription is expiring on 5th March. If I can cancel on 5th March and then immediately get this offer, that’d be great.
i just tried it and it said it wouldn’t apply because i’d already redeemed it. I know i’ve redeemed other offers for kindle unlimited so maybe you can be a “returning customer” but not one who has done such an offer before?
If I sign up today and cancel tomorrow will my access remain open until the 2-month mark?
Be the data point you want to see.
Yes. It worked for me that way. It shows an April 20, 2020 membership end date for me.
Hum. Can you still borrow new books? When I go to cancel early, I get “We’re sorry to see you go. You will have access to your borrowed titles until your membership ends on April 22, 2020.” I’m not clear i will be able to borrow new titles.
I just cancelled, and confirmed that I could immediately borrow more books by returning the ten I already had borrowed
Thanks for posting. I’m not a prime member and was able to take this offer.
Welcome back previous members. We sincerely hope you will set and forget this time.
Yours truly,
Karen from the Management
