Seems very very very few people are eligible for this offer. Title is updated
The Offer
No direct link, see image below
- Amazon is offering $5 credit if you see if Fios is available in your area. To do the deal you need to scan the Amazon smile code, to do that you need the Amazon app then click the camera button (next to search on the home page) and then line it up. I was able to do it from my laptop screen using the image below.
The Fine Print
- Valid until December 31st, 2018
Our Verdict
If you don’t already have the Amazon app, try to get the $15 off $30 deal first. Obviously $5 Amazon credit isn’t massive, but this should literally take you 30 seconds. As always for a complete list of ways to save on Amazon purchases click here.

Better idea to tell people that it is targeted promotion as it leaves a bad taste in a persons mouth when they have to jump through hoops and then AMAZON says:
"Sorry you are ineligible."
Post updated to reflect this
NYC existing FIOS user, ineligible for me.
Didn't work for me and fios is in my area. I actually have them for internet service.
No go for me
I wonder if the only people targeted are the ones that do actually live in a fios area. This would be a good way for Amazon to gather data for future use...John 3:16
This was a fail. Time to delete the post.
Doc normally leaves things up for reference and updates to say it's dead/expired/whatever. No reason to delete posts, and I hope they don't start.
I live in an area where FIOS is available (and used to actually have it) but I also got the ineligible message.
Looks like it is checking for Verizon fios availability, so it's not going to work if in an area where fios was sold off to Frontier or is unavailable. https://www.verizon.com/home/fiosavailability/
I have FiOS service already at my primary Amazon address and it also didn't work for me. Ineligible for $5 credit message.
Does not work for me.
