Just like I said:
Of course, tubemonkey could have hidden the information behind a link or a spoiler or something on the O.P.--he's famous for that.

I can now tell you from personal experience that not all of the Audible reps know about either the offer or the glitch.

So, if you try this route good luck, it may be YMMV.
That is typical of Audible. Not all reps are up to speed. I think there reps are just told if an issue comes up to just give the customer a credit to make them happy. I had an issue with a series I was buying two years ago that had two separate narrators, one of the seven books had major tape hiss and the first and last sentences were missing in the chapters I listened to. The rep not only refunded me all the credits for the series she gave me the second set for free.

With most any issue at Audible it is hit or miss. I had an issue with a title a couple of years ago. It was a compilation of shorter stories, and the author had made a mistake putting the compilation together (they repeated a story twice and left out a story that was supposed to be in the compilation by the description). I had a hard time communicating with the Audible rep, so I broke it down so a child could understand (track x starts with the phrase "xxx" and track y starts with the same, tracks 5-7 and 12-14 all have the identical length, etc.). Not only did Audible work with the author to correct the problem they gave me a free credit for helping them work through the problem.

Still appears to be available for "0 credits" or $5.95. Strange, but willing to give it a try....

ETA ... and it charged me, despite using the zero credit button, which said there would be no charge on the confirmation page... Off to chat with Audible.

Still reporting it as a glitch .. got a refund on the charge and kept the book as a "one-time" thing. Looks like they need to work on the free credit for member purchases a bit (and take this one off that promo until they fix it).
And the saga continues - all was fixed, but sometime overnight the credit applied disappeared and my balance was back down. Had to get on chat again - this rep, once she saw the name of the book, just went and added a credit to the account. Seems it is getting to be a more well-known problem.

Audible ---> $2.95 -- Good As Gone -- Amy Gentry --> suspense
I used a credit on Good as Gone a little while back; wish I'd waited. It's not terrible, but I was disappointed. It deals with the apparent return of a believed-dead daughter to her family years later. The author keeps you off balance about whether the girl is an impostor, but it's hard to care about any of the characters or whether the girl is who she claims to be. Probably worth three bucks as a time waster.

Thanks GtrsRGr8 for highlighting this. My niece now has another crochet book.

Please do not put ideas in Tubemonkey's head. One of him is enough as it. We so do not need him cloing himself and taking over the world.
