I recently received this from Audible in an email titled “Improving your experience of Audible credits”:
Today, we’re pleased to inform you of important updates that will make it easier for you to use and keep track of your credits.
Starting April 1, active members on any annual Audible plan can keep all credits for up to one year, now consistent with other plans. Any credits issued prior to April 1 will have an extended expiration of two years from the issue date.
Note that you could already keep credits for a year. The change here is that you can no longer roll over credits into the next year. So improving my experience means forcing to buy more books than I usually do, or losing my credits permanently. Much easier to use my credits if I don’t have as many of them I guess...
There is a little something more going on here, I didn’t get contacted about it, but my mother received this class action settlement notice regarding Audible credits a couple days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/audible/comments/b9wji1/did_anyone_else_on_here_get_notice_of_the_class/ , so it seems likely that they are making changes in response to the suit/settlement.
Still it feels more than a little insulting to get an email telling me that making the service worse is an improvement.
