00:00Amazon Prime Settlement Refund – How to Check Your Eligibility and Claim Yours

00:06The internet is filled with scam sites, so consumers are advised to stick to trusted,

00:10legitimate platforms.

00:12Naturally, big names like Amazon are assumed to be safe and consumer-friendly.

00:17However, even major companies can use deceptive tactics such as making users unknowingly

00:22subscribe to services or making it hard to cancel.

00:25The Federal Trade Commission recently accused Amazon of doing exactly that.

00:30As a result, the company is now required to pay $2.5 billion to affected customers.

00:38The FTC fined Amazon $1 billion and secured $1.5 billion in customer refunds over deceptive

00:45Prime sign-up and cancellation practices, which FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson described

00:51as subscription traps designed to coerce users.

00:55The settlement is considered a historic win.

00:58U.S. customers may be eligible for up to $51 if they signed up for Prime between June 23,

01:052019 and June 23, 2025, attempted to cancel but were unsuccessful, and used limited Prime benefits.

01:13Automatic payouts will go to those who enrolled through certain Amazon pages and used no more

01:17than three Prime benefits within any 12 months.

01:21Those who don't qualify for automatic payments but meet the broader criteria, having used

01:25no more than 10 Prime benefits in a year, can file a claim after the automatic payments

01:30are completed.

01:34The FTC found that Amazon used manipulative designs to trick users into signing up for

01:39Prime and made cancellation difficult, affecting around 35 million customers.

01:45In some cases, shoppers were enrolled in Prime without realizing it, and the option to decline

01:50was hidden.

01:51Amazon denies wrongdoing, claiming the settlement is just a way to move forward.

01:56As part of the $2.5 billion settlement, Amazon must now clearly display Prime terms,

02:03provide an easy opt-out button, simplify the cancellation process, and allow third-party

02:07oversight to ensure compliance.

02:13If you unknowingly signed up for Prime or had trouble cancelling, you may be eligible

02:17for a refund.
