      I ordered 4 suit jackets from Amazon. Upon receiving them they were all too small for the man that was going to wear them. I have returned them in their RESPECTIVE time and state that Amazon states too. I then I get an email stating I must upload an ID to receive my refund. So now they are withholding money EVEN AFTER they have been returned. I have all the *** tracking numbers as proof. Amazon is not refunding me and that they are requesting outrageous private information from me just to get your refund.

      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.

      Upon reviewing the complaint details, I see that you are referring to refund for the items returned in Order#***-3451753-5652213. 

      I understand that our concern team requested you to share the ** proof. Due to proprietary nature of our business, I'm afraid that we won't be able to share the details of our investigation methods.

      For certain orders, our Specialist team requires a government issued identity proof to investigate the orders. However, the returns and refund process for normal orders still remains unchanged. You shall receive refunds once the items reach our returns center.

      Please rest assured that any information you provided is handled according to our Privacy policy.

      On checking,  I see that you were already refunded for the order in the amount of $308.47 ($238.12+$70.35) to the payment method used on the order and you should see this posted to your card statement in 3-5 business days.

      I hope this helps. Have a great weekend!!

      Amazon Prime Video does not default to using any sort of sensible consumer protection for transactions. Simply remaining signed in on a device at a difference residence has allowed the people living there to sign up my account for subscriptions that have cost me $87.60.This is unacceptable. Even ******* whose customer service is _exceptionally_ poor and who has an awful track record of consumer protection, defaults to asking for a password the first time a purchase is made on a new device.

      Date of transaction:November 20, 2023 Order#: 113-8134410-2421836 I initially ordered a product from Amazon, but it arrived incomplete, missing a pole. I returned the item and requested a replacement. The replacement did arrive with all the necessary parts, but I encountered issues during installation that were not addressed in the user manual. Consequently, I decided to return the product on the same day I received it, using Amazon Locker+.Following this, I experienced difficulties with Amazons customer service. They repeatedly asked me to verify my identity and to wait. Exhausted by the process, I chose to dispute the transaction. However, I am now facing challenges in obtaining my refund. According to Amazons website, my return *** have been lost in transit. Meanwhile, my credit card company is asking for proof that the return was successfully processed and a refund was issued.I am writing this to request your assistance in resolving this matter.

      Dear Amazon Seller Support Team,I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to appeal the deactivation of my seller account due to allegations of counterfeit items and Section 3 policy violations. I am deeply concerned about this situation and would like to provide additional information to clarify the circumstances.First and foremost, I want to emphasize that all the products I have listed on Amazon were sourced from legitimate, reputable suppliers. I have taken every precaution to ensure that I am offering only genuine items to Amazon customers.I suspect that this issue may be related to a misunderstanding or error in Amazon's warehouse handling process. I take full responsibility for my inventory and have recently terminated my agreement with the warehouse in question. I believe this will prevent any future incidents of this nature from occurring.I am committed to upholding Amazon's policies and guidelines to the highest standard. To that end, I have taken the following steps to prevent any recurrence of such issues:Strengthening Supplier Relationships: I have established even more stringent criteria for selecting suppliers, focusing on those with a proven track record of providing authentic products.Enhanced Quality Control: I have implemented a rigorous quality control process to thoroughly inspect all incoming inventory, ensuring it meets Amazon's standards.Continuous Monitoring: I will diligently monitor my inventory and listings to promptly address any potential issues.Ongoing Education: I am committed to staying informed about Amazon's policies and attending any relevant training or workshops to ensure compliance.I understand the seriousness of these allegations and am eager to resolve this matter promptly. I kindly request your assistance in reactivating my seller account so that I can continue serving Amazon's valued customer base in a manner consistent with your policies.Sincerely,

      I bought a Razer Gift card from Amazon (sold and shipped by Amazon) in the amount of $100 on December 9th, but when I went to claim it, it says 'redeemed'.I have since chatted with Amazon CSR 4 times, each time I was promised quick turnaround of 24 hours and so far after 5 days and 4 chats, I am still waiting for either a working GF or a refund. After all the time wasted on this GC, I would rather have my money back in the form of a refund in the amount of $100. This has been a very disappointing experience with Amazon for a product they sell and ship.

      I was told that I received my refund of $294.24 back to the original payment method on Oct 12, 2023. And when I said that this was impossible due to that account being closed on Sept 20th, they told me to contact PayPal and my bank with a transaction number that neither could verify. I was assured that my account was closed and there was no way that it could have been returned. After speaking to several people about this fact I was told I would then receive a check in the mail. I was told this on two separate occasions and have yet to receive a check. Every time I try to talk to anyone at Amazon, they either tell me a check is in the mail or it was returned to the original form of payment and to contact my bank. I have been lied to on several occasion in regard to this situation and passed off to different departments while on long phone calls only to be lied to yet again with the check is in the mail.

      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've reviewed your complaint and I see that you've contacted as you haven't received the check yet.

      I'd like to apologize for the incorrect information provided.

      I've reviewed the refund details on the Order#***-9411405-1898627 and can confirm that the refund was processed successfully.

      As you're not seeing the refund posted to your account, please contact your issuing bank for further assistance. Your bank can clarify how long it'll take them to post the refund.

      If your bank has trouble locating the completed refund, please contact our Billing Specialists so they can investigate why this may be happening. You can email them directly at *****************************************. Please include:

      - the order number if available

      - the last 2 digits of the payment method

      - the amount of the refund

      - the date of the transaction

      - any other information you find pertinent

      If your account has been closed or canceled and you have another credit card with the same issuing bank, they can normally apply the refund to your new card. If you no longer have a credit card with the issuing bank, they should issue you a refund check.

      We appreciate your understanding and hope to seeing you soon.

      Please feel free to contact us directly by replying to ************************************************ if we can be of further assistance.

      Complaint: 21007290

      I am rejecting this response because:
      I have already done everything they just asked several times. I continue to be dismissed every time I talk to someone. I have contacted both the bank and PayPal. As I have said several times. They cannot help me and sent me back to Amazon. PayPal said that there is no way it could have been charged back to that card, since it was closed. I cant access anything in PayPal, since my entire account is closed, and neither could an associate when I spoke to them. They made it clear that my card was closed and it could not have been charged back. And since there is no longer a PayPal account there is no other issuing card to put it on. And since the refund would have to go through them first it makes sense it never got to the bank. But I called my bank who said there was no pending refund and they couldnt help me until they saw something on their end. 
      Not only have I been sent to other people several times but I have also been lied to several times. 
      You contradicted yourself in this very response. In regards to apologizing for not receiving the refund check and then you say it was refunded. Well it was not. 
      and Ive been lied to several times about how its been fixed. I was told by at least two people I would receive a check since the payment was unable to be put back in my original payment. 
      and now you are telling me yet again that it has already been refunded and to contact you directly and contact my bank Why would I do that when I have contacted yall several times directly and get passed around to several people who all lie to me about refund checks in the mail and confirmation emails. 
      so no I reject this reply as its the exact same one I have gotten from several people over the last couple months. 

      Sincerely,

      I was told that a refund, for order number *****************, in the amount of $319.24 was initiated on 10/12/23 as seen in the pic refundinfo1. When I informed them that was not possible as that account ending in **** was closed on Sept 20, they then said they would send a check in the amount of $294.24 as seen in pic refundinfo4. I have yet to receive a check. On another occasion I was told to contact my card company or bank and have them put my refund on another card since **** was closed. My PayPal account is closed, as shown in pic refundinfo5. There is no other card available. No one can access my account and it cannot be reopened, per PayPal, and PayPal sent me back to Amazon. And since it would have had to go through PayPal before ever reaching my bank, my bank has no record of any refund being initiated and my bank also sent me back to Amazon. I have been lied to, disconnected without being able to finish conversations and passed around to different people/departments who have all said the same three things, 1. It was refunded back to original payment, 2. We sent a check, 3. Call your bank/Paypal. I have done everything they have asked.I have provided everything they have asked. There was no refund. They can't even get there story straight in one conversation. They apologize for not receiving my check but then say it was already refunded back to your original form of payment. And also say things like, it's on its way. So which is it? Was it refunded electronically or did they send a check and it's still on its way.

      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'm sorry to know that you haven't received refund and about incorrect information about being refunded in the form of check.

      I've checked with the concerned team and they have confirmed refunded back to the card and hasn't been denied/returned to Amazon. Also, I'd like to inform you that Amazon doesn't accept Paypal. Hence, in this case, I'd suggest that you please reach out to your bank.

      We appreciate your understanding and hope to seeing you soon.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The form of payment that you said it was returned to was a PAYPAL MASTERCARD DEBIT CARD. This card, ending in ****, was issued to me by PAYPAL. My PAYPAL MASTERCARD was closed in SEPT as well as the WHOLE PAYPAL account. Therefore, it could not have been refunded back to ANY account in OCT.
      Sincerely,
