Free 60-Day Kindle Unlimited Membership (Save £15.98/~AU$26) @ Groupon UK

360

Ok this is perfectly achievable for an Aussie. I know because I just went through the process!

  1. 'Buy' the Groupon with a simple Groupon UK account (name, email, password)
  2. Groupon will appear straight away in your Groupons. Open the PDF on a desktop
  3. Click the link up the top which will send you to Amazon UK to redeem it
  4. Ensure your country settings are set to UK (refer to sites like this), both Billing and Location Settings. Amazon will tell you what they're set to, and help you to switch them
  5. Once activated, cancel the membership straight away. You'll still get the 60 days worth of Kindle Unlimited without worry of being charged.

And there you go, 60 days worth for nothing :)


Benefits of Kindle Unlimited include:

  • Unlimited Reading: Enjoy unlimited reading from over 1 million titles
  • Unlimited Audiobooks: Listen to thousands of audiobooks with Audible narration
  • Unlimited Magazines: Read current issues from a variety of popular magazines
  • Any Device: No need to own a Kindle device to enjoy Kindle Unlimited – read on any Kindle device or download the free Kindle app

        • @welcomewelcome: followed this :

          View and Update Your Country or Region

          To shop the Kindle Store for titles available for your country or region, set the country or region in Manage Your Content and Devices.

          We'll display your country or region at the top of the Kindle Store so you know that you're browsing the catalog of titles available for your country or region. Availability and pricing of titles can vary by country.
          Visit Manage Your Content and Devices (Amazon.com full site), and then click the Settings tab.
          If the displayed country is incorrect under Country Settings, click Change.
          Select an existing home address from your Amazon account or enter a new one.
          When you're finished, click Update.

  • Do you get to keep any books after 60 days?

    • No I'm pretty sure you lose access until you resub. Much like PS+/Live

      I did this a few months back via the Australian site with a 30 day trial.
      The books showed up on my Kindle for PC software and from there I could use Calibre to extract them from the Kindle directory, remove DRM and save permanently to PC or a non-Kindle e-reader.
      Unsure how it would work with the UK thing - maybe just sign in to that account from the Kindle for PC software?
      BTW the current Kindle for PC software does not allow extraction to Calibre, so if you take this path consider downgrading to a previous version. More details here - https://teleread.org/2017/01/29/latest-kindle-for-pc-no-long…

      • That's called stealing and there are much easier ways of achieving that…

        Plus, stealing is not a bargain.

        • Instead its called a freebie 😊. Although it might hurt the authors when u decided to purchase their books during the free trial. I believe they still get paid by kindle? When u purchase a book to read during the subscription. Kindle must at least give a cut to the author for allowing a kindle reader to use the IP n give the rights to allowing the user to read a particular title.
          There are other ways of stealing mobi , pdf books such as torrents. But if i really loved a particular book i would first have a good read through the book n support the author if the book is worth reading later on. Thats just my way of seeing things.

        • @AzNDuDe: Agree, I read some absolute crap and some brilliant reads during the trial and have since gone on to buy more from the good authors after the trial ended.

        • @blindwilly:

          That does not justify anything.

        • @AzNDuDe:

          So what about taking a video camera into the cinema to record it to watch later? is that a "freebie"? You still paid them a ticket stub. Your definition of what's fair isn't what's legal.

      Arrrrr, if ye know where to look ye can find ebooks yar can keep forever that won't hurt ye doubloon pouch none.

      • Indeed, but this made it easy to find and keep them, at least for the trial period…and get them onto my non-Kindle device.

  • Does this still qualify you for cheap whisper sync audiobooks? From memory you could get the free ebook through Kindle unlimited and then pay a few dollars to buy the accompanying audio book (which you get to keep)

  • This isn't working for me because apparently it requires a valid UK credit card.
    I'm using a UK VPN address, and fabricated UK personal details but its not taking.
    Has anyone got it to work with this?

    • +1

      Worked for me using my regular Australian debit card that was already attached to my amazon account. VPN not needed either. Just needed to change my billing location to a UK address and it worked without a problem.
