Luxembourg, 18 December 2013 – Amazon.co.uk has extended the last order date for Christmas deliveries via its Free Super Saver Delivery service to Thursday 19th December.

There’s also still time to sign up for a free trial of Amazon Prime (www.amazon.co.uk/prime) and receive One-Day Delivery on millions of items in time for Christmas. The last order date for Christmas delivery with Amazon Prime is 11am on 23rd December.

For those who wish to leave it to the very last minute, customers in eligible areas can order up to 9.30am on Christmas Eve for delivery later that day with Amazon.co.uk’s Evening Delivery service.

The Amazon.co.uk last order dates for Christmas deliveries are as follows:

  • By 9:30am on 24th December, using Evening Delivery
  • By 11am on 23rd December for Prime members (or One Day Delivery)
  • By midnight on 20th December for First Class Delivery
  • By 7pm on 19th December for UK Free Super Saver Delivery

“We tend to see a flurry of last minute gift orders right up to Christmas Eve each year and have extended our Super Saver Delivery so people can benefit from free delivery for even longer,” commented Xavier Garambois, Vice President of EU Retail at Amazon. “A free trial of Amazon Prime is also available to shoppers ahead of Christmas, with free One-Day Delivery until 11am on 23rd December.”

‘“Whether people have struggled for time in the run up to Christmas or have suddenly discovered that an additional guest is coming to stay, we have a number of different delivery services that ensure that last minute shoppers can relax and know that their gifts will arrive in time for the big day,” said Christopher North, Managing Director, Amazon.co.uk Ltd.
