I ordered a No-SO PW but I noticed in my account that I have the option to enable SO if I want. If I enable it and then decide to disable later, will they try to charge the one-time fee even though I paid for the No SO version?

This is all I could find on their help page:

By unsubscribing, you will be charged a one-time payment.

If you start out with a non-SO Kindle and choose to enable the offers there isn't any charge for you to disable it again later. I've changed the setting a few times without any problem.

I wouldnt think that would be right. I have K3 I got before they started SO. I wanted to get rid of the DA so I switched no extra cost.

Ok, great. I assumed I wouldn't be charged since I paid the full price but I just wanted to make sure in case a nice offer becomes available.

Thanks

The ability to opt in and out of special offers at will is the reason why I always tell people to buy the special offers version first and then opt out later if they find the ads to be intrusive. This way, if you don't mind the special offers, you'll only have paid the special offers price, and if you do mind the special offers, you can just pay the difference to opt out later on.

Go to http://www.amazon.com/myk and click 'manage your devices' on the left side of the page. Then find your device among those listed and click edit next to "Unsubscribed" under the Special Offers column.

Thanks! I now realize that I can't find that option because I sold my Kindle, and now only have apps registered. I'll keep that in mind when my PW arrives.

Just curious, why turn it back on?

Because there might be special offers that you want to get in on.
