    I went an hour over my trial period with eBay Plus and told them immediately I didn't want it and intended to cancel but forgot, they still out right refused a refund. Sure they are in the right with there contract but was poor customer experience and they were rude about it. Most companies let this slide and offer the refund. To see this offer though just adds salt to the wound. Just thought I would spread my bad experience eBay customer service.

      I found eBay Plus as a whole to have very poor service, especially in contrast with Prime which just offers so much more.

    $1 is worth for a year that's how much eBay plus really worth

  • Nothing for me no email :(

  • Not only do I never get these targeted deals, the one time I tried to set up a new eBay account they suspended my new account right before the Airpods went back on at 4pm!

    $1 was all it was ever worth lol

  • Despite having done the trial, I am not eligible:

    I clicked Start Trial again, this came up:

    To join eBay Plus, you need to provide a payment method. eBay Plus costs AU $49.00 per year. Your membership will be automatically renewed each year, unless you've cancelled it.
    You have already tested eBay Plus for free. If you sign up now, the annual membership fee is due immediately.

    Add payment method

    Yup. Got it !!! Thanks OP. I love this community.

    "Hey ebay plus @ $49!! God no, it's the most useless thing"
    "Hey ebay plus @ $1. Yes please, these are my 5 back up ebay IDs that I have used the trial on"

    It's a dollar guys, just get it….cancel it later. Nothing to loose…oops forgot you've got a whole dollar at stake…wow!

    • Maybe have a read about the hassle members are having trying to cancel their eBay+ memberships and do something about that instead of trolling the "it's only a $1" issue.

      Given the numerous complaints re cancellation difficulties, this whole one year membership for only $1 comes close to smelling like a scam to get people to sign up, then make it hard to cancel their membership after you take their first renewal fee though.

    Used the trial before and cancelled. To my surprise when I went to ‘start trial’ this time the $1 offer came up. Thanks OP.

  • +1

    No email for me, but that may have more to do with me filtering/blocking a lot of deal emails in the past.

    For me to trigger the deal, I opened the app, scrolled down to the deals and then a banner for eBay plus reared it's head before going to any of the deals.

    Clicked "Free Trial."

    Even though I've used a trial in the past, I found this interesting that any trial was even offered so YMMV regarding who it targets. The banner as per OP then showed up and I just clicked through as directed. $1 for first year.

    Cheers OP. 👍

  • Wonder if opening a new ebay account would make one eligible..anyone tried it?

    • I tried - it didn't work

    • Same. New account, no luck

  • I tried to use this (and thanks for the heads up about it) but it said I had already trial ebay plus & offered it to me for $49! no thanks!

  • I've had the free trial earlier this year which I cancelled but i am still getting the ebay plus benefits? Has this happened to anyone else?

    • When you cancel you still get the Plus benefits until your subscription/membership period expires, it sounds like your membership is still active, you can check here:
      https://www.ebay.com.au/ebayplus/home

      • Yep checked that, nothing. Just says start free trial today.
        Had a free 3 months trial from 21/4/19 to 20/7/19 which was cancelled as i had previously had a 1 month trial in 2018 which i had cancelled at end of trial.
        Have never paid anything but still seem to get the benefits of ebay plus?
        Am not eligible for this $1 deal either

  • +1

    Still can't see the value in it, with probably hundreds of items I've bought I've never been in the situation that plus would have saved me $ over just buying from another seller or waiting for a x% off voucher. Sellers I buy from are already free delivery or are not plus items anyway.

    • Yeah I've started buying from Amazon for a fair bit of the ebay stuff that isn't eligible under their new style of sales. Plus cashback from Shopback, win/win/win.

    • A good example for where it works well for me would be buying from "Computer Alliance" expecially when there are decent Ebay promos on. With Ebay Plus shipping is free where as I think it's $15 otherwise.
      I order a lot of IT Stuff and it has definately worth it for me across the various vendors. Having said that have not paid $49 for it to date but have saved a lot compared to had I not had it.

  • Offer email received on 20 August.

    Offer email had T&C star "*" expiry date of 17 August.

    As per the email, I was sent an offer that was already expired. I didn't bother to login to check if the offer was still valid because the email expiry date was in the past.

  • I just did a chat with them…and was told it's a targeted thing. If u get the email you're entitled to $1 joining, if not, then ur not.

    • +3

      There's a good chance deals like this will be ongoing, if you missed out on this one there will probably be another one in the weeks to come…

  • Wow..thankyou! Got it for $1. Didn't have any email from them. :)

  • Nope, didn't get this offer. Don't spend or have much $ though, am not found ebay worthy.

  • Thank you! Got it for $1. Didn't have any email from them either :)

  • no luck on all 4 of my accounts.

    • +1

      LEL 4 accounts. Maybe they're on to you and have you blacklisted with all those accounts.

  • Never got the email yet I was still able to get the $1 promo. I even used the 1 month free trial a while back. Thanks heaps!

  • No luck. Used the free trial before though..

  • awesome. For $1 its worth it.

  • Signed up with the debit card with $1 on it, Ebay then cancelled my subscription due to the rejected $1 payment . Anyone else had this issue? Were they trying to “pre-auth” my card with $49?

    • Did you have at least $1.01 in account?
      As Rural Bank and one other (I think igmarkets) have had this issue at times.

      pre-auth $49, I'm voting no.

  • lmao bought the $1 year membership went to cancel and was offered a $20 gift card if I stayed

    • Gift card is if you stay and not given to you till after you make next year's payment of $49

      Most underrated comment of the thread haha! You deserve an ozbargain medal of Honor! 😆

  • I got the $1 EBay email but after confirmation payment it only gave me 30 days free trail any idea???

    • Last month I signed up for free 4m trial and got only one month.
      I guess we have to contact ebay to fix the problem.

  • Just check the ebay mobile app for your account. Website allows me to try the free trial only, but the app had the $1 offer.

  • Was checking my alt account for this..

    Got it on my main account, lmao.

    Winner!

  • +1

    So what are you people paying $1 for?

  • Thanks, got it!

  • Did not get the $1 offer

    • Didn't get the $1 offer so guess they saved me from spending $1 on something that may be useless :)

  • My pc went down for a day. Sorry to have missed this.

  • My card declined and cancel my eBay membership willl eBay fix this if I call?

    • Same happened to me. I called and they said I would be added to a list to fix. Nothing yet.

    If you missed out, looks like there’s a 1 year eBay Plus for $5 offer commencing 9am 2nd Sept.

    Terms Page (subject to change)

    • Looks like is Via Email Invitation based on conditions. Mine expires today so will be interested to see if I receive anything.

      • This $1 offer said via email invitation also, but if you attempt to sign up after 9am on Monday, the $5 charge should automatically show under ‘Payment method’ (if you’re eligible for the offer).

      • Not only via email, it's also always (I think) visible within the users' account. We should probably try to mention both places IMO.

        • Usually if show there an email will have been sent (unless email notifications are turned off by users). Will be interested if anything shows up tomorrow but not holding my breath.

  • I never get any of these despite having all subscriptions enabled and buying from ebay almost weekly for over a decade.
    Maybe that's why they don't give a crap.

  • EVERYONE BE CAREFUL THEY ARE DOUBLE CHARGING!!!
