Yeah, don't delete it from the cloud, you'll lose your purchase.

Kindle Unlimited does seem to have one error. If you are looking at a book they have 0.00 sometimes listed next to the kindle edition when looking at an author's works and you think that he/she must be offering one or two of his/her books for free for a day or something. Only when you get there you find that the book isn't free. If you have KU you can download it sure, but the price is anything from $3 something on up for buying it. Even though the price on the list of the books says different.

For those of you who continued KU past the trial period, did Amazon send any e-mail about the charge to your credit card? Also did you get the extra Audible credit immediately and/or any e-mail notice about that? Thanks.

I didn't get any email when they charged. The only email I ever got about KU was when I signed up for thanking me. But nothing for the 1st month charge.

I don't know about the Audible credit as I never activated that.

Nope, no e-mail.

I got the next credit within the next day. That I got an e-mail about.

Thanks for the info.

No email about the credit charge. But a reminder that I had 2 credits at Audible. I use my husband's account, so just gifted him two books with it.

In manage content and devices under settings it will always show when and how much will be charged on a subscription. Email? Not sure, I don't check my email for Amazon.

Just looked in audible, and the credit for audible will NOT be there until after a month you signed up for it. My KU date is different than my audible credit since I signed up for the free audible credits after having KU for over a week. My CC already been charged for KU, but my next audible credit not coming until later this week.

Thanks. I got the first Audible credit upon signing up for the trial, and now my second month has been billed. I am not 100 percent sure about what happened with the new Audible credit (I had preexisting credits, but I don't remember how many), and I don't see anything at my account either at Audible or Amazon to tell me if another credit was added, nor did I get any sort of notification. Guess I'll give them a call in a day or two.

On the audible app in the store - I can click on my credits (currently 0) and it will tell me when the next one will be added (sep 4th) - not sure if it will say so if you have more than zero credits. If yours says for the next time your KU comes due, you should already received it.

I had an existing membership, so what it's showing is the next regularly scheduled date in a couple of weeks. I don't see any way to go back and verify when the last credit was applied, unfortunately.

Audible is horrible when it comes to detailing your membership history.

And horrible on the phone, too, which is why I'd rather forgo a call!

I just should have paid attention better--I didn't check the Audible credits in time because I was one day off on the KU renewal date.

Amazon needs to step in and teach this child of theirs what customer service is and how to properly document all transactions.
