ac.uk email address discounts - let's make a list!

[Workyticket]

Disclaimer - I'm a teacher in FE so this is for my students as well as me!

I'm sure lots of you / your kids are starting college this month though and we're all skint!

I currently use mine for

Free Office 365
Half price Amazon Prime
Spotify
Student Beans discount app

What else is out there?

Thought of another - UniDays

Half price amazon prime?? Whaaat can you tell me more? Although mine is a .sch.uk email.

Apple education discounts? I know I could get that through my education link when I was a Vice Chair Governor but that was a decade ago. I don't know if you still can?

Ooh - not sure if sch.uk would work. Worth a Google though?

ac.uk is FE

Not sure about apple, I'm an android girl!

Sorry @Cookiedough123 I didn't actually answer you

I just changed the email linked to my amazon prime account to my student one and it's half price for as long as I have the email

Do you have to state that you are a student for Spotify, or is changing the email enough to get the discount ? I still have access to my uni email account from 8 years ago, so will do it if that's all it takes, but I don't want to outright lie !

Yes I wonder this

Think uni days asks if you’re a student

ac.uk is unis and colleges

Pretty sure it’s against school rules for me to use my school email for personal reasons?

Amazon Prime isn't half price for as long as you have the email - there is a time limit of 3 or 4 years as mine recently timed out. You can't get a second one even if you are still a student.

Cafe Nero!

Totum (NUS) but you have to pay for their membership. I work at a uni but we are allowed to buy a TOTUM card.

Totum card is worth it - 10& off everything at the Co-op, I need to renew mine.

What else can you get with totum? I can buy one too but how much are they?

Think I paid £24 for 3 years. Can use it in Hotel Chocolat 10% off, New Look any other shops that mention student discount.

I got a Totem card and it's paid for itself already. I got an offer of £24 for 3 years but they don't always have that offer it seems so worth looking out for it.

With it I was able to get a season ticket for our local football club at the student rate which was half price from the adult price. I couldn't have afforded the adult price one.

Unfortunately all the Co-ops near us seem to be closing so I don't get to use the 10% there much but I've had discounts in ShoeZone and occasionally on Just Eat from it.

I've got the free access to Microsoft 365 through my uni and also you can get half price Apple Music which includes Apple TV for free which I only recently found out was a student offer, I thought everyone got it if they paid for Apple Music. 🙈

You can get cheaper train and bus travel with the card too, I recently travelled 100 miles from home using both a Megabus and a train and it only cost me a few quid for the return journey.

*Totum. My autocorrect always does that with it. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@Cookiedough123 just a warning on the Amazon front. It only lasts for 3 years. I'm doing open uni and after 3 years it has now ended

I bought a HP laptop and monitor with discount using my ac.uk email this year. So Hewlett Packard.

Hi, is anyone on here willing to borrow me their student beans and unidays accounts as I really could do with savings? I'm willing to pay for access? if interested let me know thanks
