German Court Invalidates Amazon Prime Price Adjustment Clause
Germany's Federal Court of Justice (BGH) ruled Amazon's 2022 Prime price increase invalid due to intransparent contract clauses, specifically clauses 5.2 and 5.3, which violated § 307 BGB. The court found customers were not adequately informed of their rights upon price changes, constituting an unreasonable disadvantage. As a result, Amazon must temporarily revert prices for members who joined before September 15, 2022 and have had continuous membership since then. Affected customers can claim refunds for up to three years, either individually or by joining the class action led by Verbraucherzentrale NRW, which has about 145,000 registered claimants. A separate class action is ongoing regarding Amazon's introduction of ads in Prime Video, which users can avoid for an additional fee. Amazon will inform affected members before their next payment. This ruling sets a precedent for similar cases against Netflix, Apple TV, and Wow.
