Lately, my Prime deliveries have been sent via UPS Mail Innovations, which relies on the USPS for last mile delivery. This inevitably turns 2-day delivery into 1 week plus delivery, due to the USPS's incompetence where I live. Complaints to Amazon result in a free one month extension of Prime benefits, but they can't stop the service from being chosen on future orders.
Unless this changes soon, I am likely to let my Prime membership expire, as it has become useless to me because it is no longer reliable. Any attempt to raise the fee while still using USPS for last mile delivery will be met absolutely with cancellation.
That said, if they raised the fee and promised to use only reliable (e.g., UPS, FedEx, hell, even Lasership/OnTrac), I'd take the deal.
- ck2 13y agoprime? or subscriptions subscription use that damn innovations to save them 25 cents or whatever from ups coming to your door (which actually I am okay with but it adds a day) I've never seen a regular prime delivery use innovations.

- sxcurry 13y agoNo kidding - this is happening increasingly to me and I've also complained to Amazon. I live rurally, and USPS takes at least 2 extra days, and up to a week. Also, large items won't fit in my mailbox and I have to drive to the Post Office, vs UPS bringing the item to the door. Plus, the UPS driver always has a biscuit for my dog!
