Title: Retrieving Compensation from Amazon Prime: A Step-by-Step Guide
In a recent development, a class action lawsuit has been filed against Amazon by the Consumer Protection Center of Saxony. The lawsuit, which will be heard at the Bavarian Higher Regional Court, is concerning the improperly collected fees from Amazon Prime Video.
The lawsuit stems from the introduction of ads on Amazon Prime Video without subscriber consent, which many perceive as an unfair price increase. Consumers in Germany who had an Amazon Prime subscription before February 5, 2024, that lasted at least until February 6, 2024, are entitled to receive partial refunds through the ongoing lawsuit due to Amazon's unauthorized reduction of video and sound quality and additional advertising introduced without user consent.
Those who pay the extra 2.99 euros per month for ad-free viewing on Amazon Prime Video are demanding a full refund of these additional costs if the lawsuit is successful. On the other hand, those who haven't booked the ad-free option on Amazon Prime Video should receive half of their Amazon fees back if the lawsuit is successful.
In a separate announcement, registration for a chance to win an exclusive Oktoberfest table, including food, drinks, and rides, is open via the 95.5 newsletter. All recipients of the 95.5 newsletter are automatically entered into the draw. Registration for the Oktoberfest table must be done by September 30, 2025.
To register for the class action lawsuit against Amazon, individuals are required to enter their name, address, and the email address associated with their Amazon account. Registration for the lawsuit can be done through the Saxony Consumer Protection Center website, where a link to the lawsuit registry can be found. Registration for the class action lawsuit is still possible until just before the court date.
A pre-written text can be used to state your case in the registration form. The proceedings will take place at the Bavarian Higher Regional Court, and all claims submitted will be reviewed by the court.
The lawsuit has mobilized tens of thousands of affected Amazon Prime Video users, demonstrating a growing concern among consumers regarding these changes to their subscription services. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
