Cool. There have been several other smileys that I've wanted to use, but they were available in the MobileRead stockpile. I'm assuming that you imported them from somewhere else and/or the coding is universally recognized?

Or perhaps your "day job" is designing smileys? ha

Thanks, right now I need a angry face since after I signed up for the "free trial" I got the following notice.

Quote:
As you requested, we are notifying you of an online, phone or mail order charge. A charge of ($USD) 1.00 was authorized at Audible on 12/29/2016 4:21:28 PM EST.
Oh, wait, found it.

Most companies put a dollar hold on the card to make sure the card is active. After a few days it should come off. If it does not just contact your bank and they should refund the fee.

Yeah, you'll note it says the charge was "authorized," not "paid." It will clear shortly.

Sometimes, including a couple weeks ago when I signed up for the audiobooks.com free trial, I get an email saying something like:

Quote:
Please note that you may see a pre-authorization charge for $14.95 show up on your PayPal account. Don't worry: you haven't been charged! That's just our system's way of checking to make sure your billing information is valid.
The pre-authorization is voided instantly, but may take between 2-6 business days before PayPal shows the transaction as canceled.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Cheers,
The Audiobooks.com Team

I was offered a free credit when I went to cancel just now, and I took it.

I had a problem using it, however. The 2-for-1 sale would not recognize it.
I called CS and got several minutes of misinformation. Had to call back and speak to someone else, who eventually had me buy another credit for the 2-for-1 sale for which she would refund my money (which is going to take up to 7-10 days. I hate that. She should have just issued me another credit. ) Then she removed the remaining credit from my account.

I was annoyed, so I went back on the site and cancelled after all.
(This time I was offered the option of a Light membership @ $9.95/year)

Today's Audible USA Daily Deal is Peter Pan narrated by Lily Collins. If you have Kindle Unlimited this version is included in the plan. I have listened to the first hour of the book and I really am enjoying the narration. Lily Collins reads this like she is reading the book to her kids at bedtime. I cannot wait to share this one with my niece and nephew. Also note if you "buy" the public domain book and audio combo it will cost you 4 cents more then just the audiobook.

My grand total for my Audible Account for the Year is 102 books bought for a grand total of just over 175 bucks. I managed to chain free and discounted trials through 10 of the 12 months, used my discounted Kindle Unlimited subscription, Library Whispersyncs and three 20 dollar credits to manage this.

Tubemonkey, GtrsRGr8, skinmaan and ApK I want to Thank You for helping me get more books then I can listen to in a year.

I just canceled the LivingSocial promo after receiving my second credit. I was only offered the $9.95 plan. Since joining in May 2011, I've canceled so many times and spent so little ($26) that I doubt they see any value in giving me a free book to stay.

What's the $9.95 plan? Audible Listener Light or something else?

It's the light plan that allows you to keep your credits and get access to limited sales.
