Our Verdict

We’ve seen two similar deals before. Good deal if you are targeted as it’s basically just a free $15 for Amazon.

Guys, I have offers for Amazon business. Both for USA and UK, but both promotions do not work for me. Who wants to test?

I get these credits and i buy stuff i don’t need. Years ago, some shoe store did this and i bought 35 pair of the same shoes in a 5 year period. I wore same type of shoes for 10+ years

I never used the service. Google will handle photo backups on an Android phone.

You are way better off using HHDs for backup of anything more than a few snapshots.

HDDs are faster, safer, and a cheap one-time investment (Amazon sells a 4tb HDD for $18 – try uploading 4tb to the cloud and see what happens). Nobody can change the T&C or lose your data. No worries about copyright infringement.

Use a local HDD for fast backup and keep a spare or 2 offsite in case of wildfires or whatever.

Might as well toss Amazon a few throwaways and collect the $15 though. Maybe put the $15 toward a HDD…

The free prime trials for $1.99 and $0.99 have disappeared in my accounts. They were there last week. It looks like they wised up on people taking advantage of those over the years.
