Don't make the mistake of trying to purchase something with a debit card when you open a new account. They'll lock your account for unusual activity and the one thing you have purchased will be inaccessible because you can't even log in. Calling customer service is useless because the only thing they can do is submit the same form you are forced to submit in the first place. This is one of the many improvements Amazon has made that made me cancel my prime account to begin with.
