The mail order company Amazon has tacitly removed a practical delivery option from its offer.
This should particularly annoy customers without a Prime subscription.
Apparently,
Amazon
has
removed a popular delivery option from their offer.
The so-called "
Morning Express
" delivery is affected.
The
service has
paid off,
especially for customers without a
Prime
subscription
.
Kassel - If you are in a
particularly hurry
with an
Amazon
order,
express delivery has
always been a practical option for the
customer
.
However, it seems that the online retailer
has tacitly removed
this
service
from their offer.
Amazon: Thanks to the “Morning Express” service, the order was there the next morning
With the so-called "
Morning Express
" service, Amazon customers have always been able to rely on receiving their order by 12 noon the next day.
This
service was
a practical additional option,
especially for customers who do not have a
Prime membership
.
Customers who are not a member of
Amazon Prime
save a few
euros
a month
, but generally have to pay for their deliveries to be shipped and usually wait longer for their orders than Prime members.
Service will be abolished by Amazon: Customers have these shipping options
As the Lebensmittel Zeitung reports, this special service now seems to be over:
Morning Express delivery
can no longer be found in the list of the various
delivery options
.
Instead, be it possible to "same-day option" (Evening Express) that even a delivery still
of order
promises.
However, this
service
only applies to qualified "same-day articles" and certain zip code areas, according to
Amazon
.
However, the group promises that these selected items will arrive on the same day between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m., depending on the time of order and availability.
For selected articles there is also the option "
Premium Shipping
", which often guarantees that the delivery will arrive the next day.
In the case of
Blu-Ray
, for example, customers pay 3.86 euros instead of 2.89 euros for standard shipping.

Industry service suspects low demand from service - Amazon does not comment
According to the technology magazine Chip, the industry service KEP-Nachrichten suspects that the demand for
Amazon's
Morning Express
service has
simply fallen sharply.
According to this, it is
hardly
worthwhile, especially for Prime
customers
, to book this option, since thanks to the
Prime subscription
one is used to
very fast delivery times anyway.
Why
Amazon
seems to have actually said goodbye to the particularly fast delivery option remains a secret.
The shipping giant based in
Seattle
, Washington (
USA
) has not yet
commented on
this.
A week before
Black Friday 2020
, there was a major disruption at Amazon: Many customers could not access the Amazon page - the reason could have been the start of sales for the new Playstation 5.
