Amazon Prime customers across Europe are being hit by a huge price increase.
Prices will go up by as much as 43 per cent, the shopping giant has told customers.
In the UK, the annual cost will go from £79 to £95, a 20 per cent increase. A monthly subscription will go from £7.99 to £8.99.
In other countries across Europe, the price will increase even more sharply. France will see a 43 per cent increase, for example, from €49 to €69.90.
Much of the rest of Europe will see increases somewhere between the two. Italy and Spain will both see prices go up 39 per cent, from €36 to €49.90.
The new prices will go into effect from September 15 for new customers. Existing customers will see the new prices from the next renewal after that date.
