I ordered a slow cooker from Amazon on December 13th 2023 with a gift card from Amazon. On December 26th 2023 I returned the item to *** tracking number is 1z9758vx9047719544. It shows it was delivered to Amazon on December 28th 2023. I contacted amazon to see how long it will take for the refund and they advised it can take up to 30 days and then an additional 7 days. Their policy is up to 24 hours once they receive the items scanned that it was returned. I called multiple times and was hung up on by multiple people. My wife called and was hung up on as well. I got ahold of a supervisor finally who told me that an email was sent and to send in my ID when I went to the message center it said a message is waiting to come through. The supervisor told me to wait 24 hours and try to call back and then hung up. I have spent 4 hours trying to get this resolved just to be hung up on by customer service reps and supervisors the final supervisor name is *** from shippings and returns.

I placed an Amazon order, on 12/10 /2023, of 12 bottles of Fentimans Rose ******** and other items. On 12/14/2023, a partial order arrived. The box of Fentimans was in its own cardboard box inside the Amazon box with other items. $29.00 Order #***-4244808-3386639 When I opened the box of Fentimans, shards of glass fell on my floor. I lifted the bubble wrap up and the center 4 pack had dark mold all over it. I could tell a bottle had broken at some point, but certainly not recently as the box was not wet nor was the outside Amazon box wet.I called Amazon customer service that night. After verifying my cell number linked to my Amazon account via text, sharing my defective product situation with several agents, and being on the phone approximately an hour, I was told to send a picture of the damaged product with my name and the date to the link that would be sent to my email associated with my Amazon account. She also shared that it would take a couple days to confirm the resolution would be a refund and if I didnt hear back from Amazon, to call and check on the resolve. I thought it odd that I would have to call them back, but I shared I had no problem with these instructions as noted, to this point, and I would comply.*The agent then shared that I might have to send a picture of my drivers license to verify my identity. I understood that this defective item would not be returnable. I was acceptant of a full refund, which would be my only option. But when I shared that I would not send a photo of my drivers, I was told a refund would not be given. When I questioned why my drivers license was required to verify my account information and identity, that the agent before her already verified, the agent told me she was going to hang up and did just that!Wow, this was not the resolve I expect of Amazon! *But, I sent a picture of the damage item with a tag noting my name and the date to the link that was emailed to **** waited until 12/19 with no response. I call Amazon **************** again. Repeated my situation, had to verify my account and met with the same outcome an agent hanging up on me.The difference with my questions in this second call was I read in the email that my drivers license would be sent to a third party for verification and if I chose not to send it, I would not be eligible for a refund and would not be able to investigate this issue further?!? As soon as I inquired about this detail in the return call, the agent told me he was going to hang up and did just that!I have been a long time Amazon Prime member and have had refunds and returns in the past with no problems or issues. What makes this any different? It is clearly a defective item, which is still sitting on my deck growing mold! Why is Amazon requesting a third party verification with my drivers license? They have my account profile and history. I still have not received a refund to date and am baffled by this response!.*I also do not want Amazon to closed my account for clearly this was a defective item that they shipped!Can you help with this resolve?Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:***** G, Please review the language in the responses from Amazon customer as dated. My first call was on Dec 14,2023 to inform them of the defective product. My second call, to inquire about the status of my refund, was on Dec 19, 2023. I had to call them as they requested me to do so if I didn't hear from their customer service within 3-5 days. During this call the agent shared that they saw the photo of the defective product, but again inquired about my ID due to "abnormal activity" on my account. When I asked about the abnormal activity, the agent would not share what this was... The response from ******* from Amazon, as a result of BBB reaching out on my behalf is different in nature. When I shared my concern about the *** the agent told me they were going to hang up and did just that... I am baffled by this issue! I had many other items on this order that were delivered. Why does this $29 item warrant me sending a government issue ID to get a refund on a clearly defect item? *************************** Claim 21070323

My name is ******************** and my experience with Amazon has been extremely subpar. This issue started early ********************************************************** my house. We have experienced a lot of theft in my neighborhood since packages are left outside in front of the house. I asked Amazon to call me before a package is delivered, which they failed to do. Immediately, I contacted Amazon through their online chat service and began to inform them of the issue. Right away, things began to fix themselves. Some of the orders that did not arrive would be credited back to my amazon account balance. Please note that I have used the service for more than 5 years and I have paid the prime subscription every year. The packages refunded represent a small proportion of my total purchases and amazon is simply representing the facts. This was until December 27, 2023.A day later I receive an email stating my account has now been flagged for the number of refunds on the account. That they understood things happen, but the frequency on my account has raised suspicion". I disregarded the email and went about my business as it seemed they were trying to make it look as if I was trying to process refunds with malicious intent, even though that was not the case.In the days following, my Amazon account was closed, and I was told I would no longer be able to place orders on their site. I tried to call, and I was told I would have to reach out via email. An email was futile as there was an auto-generated script saying there was nothing they could do.I would like to have my account reinstated and an apology from Amazon's specialist team. If the apology cannot be reached, I would like to simply get my account back. I would also like all my information removed from Amazon's backlisting's. This includes My name, my phone number, and all my card information(s).Business Response

Hello ******,
I'm ********* from Amazon.com. I'm writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I've provided the BBB with a copy of this message.
I reviewed your complaint and apologies for the inconvenience you have experienced with your fresh orders.
I know this has been a disappointing experience for you, therefore, I have forwarded all your comments to the attention of our appropriate department in our company to let them know about your experiences and we'll make sure the appropriate people will take necessary action so that we will mitigate such instances with your future orders.
Regarding prepaid card, You'll need to choose a single payment method to place your order; you can't split your payment between multiple cards. This includes the Amazon Store Card, the Amazon Prime Store Card, and gift cards issued by major credit card companies that work just like regular credit cards.
However, you can combine Amazon.com Gift Cards with a credit or debit card payment method to complete your order.

The last time I tried adding money to your gift card you denied it.
You were not giving this trouble shopping from you in the beginning. Why now?
Once again, you accepted my EBT card the last. First, you stated that it wad delayed. You claimed my order late then you ended up cancelling it.
I suffer from Migraines and I thought you were a dream come. I live alone and have no one that I can send to the store.
Yesterday, you sent an email stating that were going to deliver an order. Then, you ended up cancelling it. You are playing these evil games against ******. Please stop doing this to my account before He shuts yall down before His return.
I have heard other bad complaints againts you.
You don't care about the people. You need our money.
It used to be so easy to check out but you keep holding my account.What about school supplies?I am a college student.

A item was returned via **** both *** and Amazon via tracking, website live chat and phone reps all confirmed the item has been received however a Amazon rep has been emailing me stating that the item hasnt been received that they will not be returning my refund and that I am in violation of there policies. I have provided proof that the items were returned as well. I have been addressing this for a month and they keep changing the refund date but keep reassuring me that the refund is being processed and will be sent by the 28th. On the 28th the email came in that they didnt receive it and Im violating the policy. I have voice recordings as well but it can not be loaded with supporting documents.

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and I am still frustrated with the fact that someone from the company would give mixed information and be adamant that I was in wrong standing but at this point moving forward I find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
Sincerely,
