Date of purchase 9/8/23 Dollar amount $1449.49 Description of purchase, DJi Air 3 Fly Combo I purchased the above product, the product did not work when I received, I returned product to Amazon after return was completed I realized they refunded me for a different product. I immediately called Amazon to let them know I printed off the incorrect return label. Amazon responded that it is in their system and they are working on it and it could take multiple weeks. Since then I have called repeatedly with no response as to what will happen with this claim. I called today 12/28/23 which they responded that nothing is in their system in regards to the above dispute. I understand I printed off the wrong return label for a far less inexpensive product but how is it that Amazon did not realize it was not a $28 dollar part but a $1448.00 dollar drone.

Hello ****,

I'm Himaja 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 am sorry to hear about the issue you faced with the return of the items from your account.

I understand that you returned 'DJI Air 3 Fly More Combo with DJI RC-N2 Remote Controller, Drone' using a returns label that was created on a different item and are looking for refund on the actually returned item.

Upon reviewing, I see that the returns center didn't process Drone as received as per the returns data and since it's more than a month that the item has reached the returns center, we can no longer track the item from the returns.

In this case, kindly contact the carrier to know more details and for further assistance.

I also see that you have Asurion protection plan on the Drone order. You can as well contact them to check if they can assist you with this issue.

You can contact Asurion on:

12/11/23.$136.85.Foam mattress.I wish to return item that is still in box because upon opening 12/21/23 on my arrival to my new home I saw that the mattress was flat and I wouldn't be able to sleep on it that night; I needed an immediate mattress. Plus it was really heavy to try to get out of the box by myself and I had no one to help me so I decided to leave it in the box and contact the customer service for return. They said they will not process the return unless I give them my id due to "suspicious activity". I don't know why they need my ID but my ID does not show my current new address so if they're fearing suspicious activity my ID might only exasperate that.I don't think it's a valid point they are making because they have allowed other recent items of same price (a bed quilt) to be returned from this new address without being required to show my ID.Please have them agree to have the *** come pick up this box or I will bring it to whatever shipper they request. I do request that return shipping be free because the item was not as expected.

My Amazon account was closed for no reason. I have made many calls and provided many required documents (Government-issued ID - Driver License, Credit card information, Billing statement); however, still got rejected with no reason. I made the last call in regards of this situation today 12/28 8:00 am and all I received was the repeating statement, "you are not allowed to have any business with Amazon." I respect the corporation but I do not think this is the fair way to treat the customer.A little bit of the background, even now I am still unsure about why my account was closed:About few weeks ago (around 12/10), I tried to purchase a Nvidia GPU **** on my Amazon account and paid with my card ending in **** as well as $500 Amazon Gift Cards obtained from the chained hotel membership points ******************** After a day or two, my account was put on hold and asked me to provide information of the card. I took a picture of my actual card with just showing the last four-digit as requested. The next response was that my account was closed. I made a call to **************** and the upload portal was opened again. This time was saying to prove the source of the gift cards so I provided the screenshot of the gift card redeemed page on the official hotel website as well as one gift card code I redeemed. Another rejection was received the next day. I made anther call and it asked me the card information. I provided the first page of the credit card billing statement (it contains name, address, credit card number, card balance but no detailed transactions). On 12/27, they sent an email to ask me to provide the information with transactions. Then, I uploaded the complete billing statement of December with all the required information inside. Still determined to close my account. I made the call today 12/28 and received useless assistance and bad attitude. Any helps would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I am an Amazon Seller since September 2022 (My merchant token ID on ********************** is A5Z6QS9RINJHI). On Septemer 22, 2022 Amazon suspended my account Seller Account and is holding my fund in sum $13,827.02 USD (thirtheen thousand eight hundred twenty seven and $, 02 c). Since October 2023 I have resolved all the problems and had submitted more than 10 written appeals (following all applicable Amazon.com rules and recommendations) and made more than 20 phone calls but Amazon.com is very uncooperative and avoids any positive action although Ive complied to all rules, laws, guidelines and recommendations. Thus apparently Amazon.com is illegally holding my funds and refuses to reinstate my account privileges. I need BBB assistance to influence Amazon.com to calculate the balance on the moment of my account suspension and refunding my balance to me. Thank you for consideration.
