This will also increase your level of concentration and help you read more books while getting your work done. You might think, ‘what about the smell of the books?’ Yes, that might sound like a compromise, but there are other advantages to compensate for that.
When you purchase an audiobook on Audible, you also have the option of returning the book, in case you do not like it much. But this policy is only limited to the members who actively use Audible.
You can return the book within 365 days and your credits will be restored. If, however, you plan to cancel the membership subscription, Audible will not refund any amount of money. You will have access to all the books that you had purchased, but you won’t be able to make any more purchases.
How to get a refund on Audible?
Audible has strict rules regarding its return and refund policy. It does not give any refund if you cancel your subscription. The only way a person gets a refund for the membership cancellation is when Audible terminates their account.
If you cancel the account, you get nothing. But if Audible cancels or terminates your account, they will give you a refund of whatever amount was left. For example, if you still have 48 days of subscription left, they will refund the amount for that time.
Why will Audible not give a refund?
Audible states in its policy that it reserves the right to terminate any account without notice. They monitor the activities of each member, so if they find any fault or fraud, they will take action against it. In such cases, where the member has committed some felony, no refund will be granted.
Audible Credits
Audible will also ask you to use up all the credits that are left in your account before cancellation. It would be wise to do that since you will have access to the books that you buy when you have a membership, even after the membership is canceled. So even though you won’t have access to other benefits, you can listen to your audiobooks when you desire.
Returning Books
If you are an avid reader, then you must be a book buyer or collector as well. Buying books and reading the books that you bought are two different habits. There can be several reasons why you cannot read a book. The commonest one of all is that you do not find it interesting.
When you bought it, you thought it would be interesting, but as soon as you start reading, you figure out that you do not like it. There is no point in investing your time any further since there are so many more books waiting to be read.
Audible is a blessing in such circumstances. You can easily return the books on Audible. You do not have to go on listening to them, simply because you spent money on them. Audible allows you to return a book within 365 days of purchase. That is a sufficient amount of time to realize whether you want to read the book or not.
