      I had issued a product return of order number 112-7837688-4378613 *** picked up the package but gave the wrong return label which was associated with some other package which I dont know. When I spoke to Amazon associates they told the package with them and they have issues the refund but when I checked with other associate, he confirmed that was the false information.So, Amazon started lying to the customers. I am not sure if I am more concerned about getting the refund for the package or should I trust Amazon. I have wasted hours dealing with this.

      I bought a camera that was supposed to be new. I ordered a camera against my wifes wishes on amazon because it was cheaper and the listing said free returns. Upon receiving the camera I could immediately tell that the tape on the box had been cut and that the camera had been repackaged. I reached out to customer service for a solution as we wanted to get what we paid for. new, unopened and unused product. I really got no where with support and was only only greeted with "we suspect suspicious activity please submit a copy of your id" Upon further thinking i feel like that is inappropriate and uncalled for. I have been a loyal and frequent customer of ******************** since 2016 and have never dealt with an issue with this. The listing states free returns and although i initially did not want to return the product and only wanted to exchange it for a new unopened one this customer service will instead be having me look to a full refund. Similar listings for the same item also sold by amazon show a return eligible until 01/31/2024. I would have bought local for a couple hundred dollars more where i could have inspected the product before taking home had amazons website stated no return.

      Good Afternoon Najam,

      Thank you for your response but unfortunately it just echos the run around I have been receiving from customer support online and over the phone. I have submitted my DL/ID on the following dates, 11/15/2023, 11/18/2023,11/21/2023, 11/25/2023,11/28/2023 and 12/02/2023. On 11/22/2023 I reached out to follow up and ask to speak to a supervisor and was told that it was escalated and that I would hear back from amazon in **** hours to have the issues resolved.I never heard back from anyone. I again reached out to amazon on 12/04/2023 and was told I would hear back from amazon no later than 24 hours to which I never heard back. I have also offered each time to email my photo id, fax my photo id,as well as, conduct a video call with an amazon employee while holding my photo id next to my face. Clearly amazons submission system does not work and something tells me that is strategy from amazon to rip people off. I have attempted too many times to return this product and plan to dispute the charge with my bank since no one at amazon has the authority to find a solution. As of this writing I was just again asked to submit my ID for a seventh time. From saved chat logs,screenshots of my ID submissions and recorded phone calls I have given my all in attempting to resolve this issue with amazon and will move forward with resolving this issue with my credit card provider as I did not receive what was ordered.

      I placed an order on October 29, 2023 (#***-3791549-4477869), which was delivered in 7 separate shipments, with the final shipment arriving November 7, 2023. Multiple items were missing from the final delivery and I reached out to Amazon through their chat function on November 9, 2023. They emailed me an incident report to completed and return to them via email. I completed this report on November 9, 2023 with all required information and return it. The next day I received a response saying it was incorrect. I responded asking for more information about what was incorrect and received no additional information. I have tried emailing and chatting and calling representatives, none of which seem to be able to fix any of the emails. I have 27 emails regarding this matter, all just stating that it will be resolved when a correct incident report is submitted. They most recent phone conversation I had with a supervisor is now requiring me to change the date of the incident report (which risks putting me outside of the refund window). They have taken money and not provided the goods in return. No one seems to be able to do anything, so here we are.

      We ordered a gaming PC order number 111-0707074-7720238, tracking number 1Zw1X8604204429068. Ordered on 11-8-23, it was to be delivered 11-13-23, on 11-10-23 at 1:03pm tracking number showed it was delivered and signed for my driver at our address but it was not. We have gone back and forth with Amazon about this daily. Today we were told to file a police report in our jurisdiction because the driver apparently stole the item because they cant tell it never made it to PA. We filed the police report and sent it to Amazon with all of the information they said they needed. Now Amazon is responding via email that they cant do anything to help us with the item or the money back.

      I have sent them a copy of the police report two times on 11/14, one time on 11/15 when they requested it for a third time. I got this email from Amazon again on Sunday and sent them a fourth copy of the police report. I have copies of all of these emails to send as proof. The only thing that will satisfy this complaint is my money back or the computer that was ordered and paid for but never delivered!

      I returned the item on Sep 11, 2023, and it was received and signed by an Amazon agent. When I contacted about the refund because it's been 2 months as policy of Amazon, they told me to contact the **** Then I did contact the *** and they gave me the proof of delivery signed by ******** of Amazon on September 15 (the proof is attached below). I contacted Amazon again by email and phone call, they kept saying they did not receive the item and refused to refund me despite I called and sent and replied many emails from Amazon. It seems no one is responsible for that problem because many emails from many persons asking for the same information and, when I replied all, they rudely had no answer at all . Some associates hung up the phone or cut the chat very impolitely. I also had this problem and lost my money (around $150) once to Amazon as the same manner. They received the item (with proof from ***) but did not refund me. This happens again this time. I think there is a routine from Amazon to steal money from customers and it needs to inform to everyone.

      I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to you in this matter, after reviewing they've issued a refund of $97.88 to the original payment method on Thursday, November 16, 2023.

      I am rejecting this response because:They just said "sorry for inconvenience" but did not state why it happen and Why I called and emailed many times but received no thing. They did not show me the future solution or what they will do to fix this wrong doing. I say so because I lost my return as the same way: They received the item with proof of delivery but kept denying as the same way as this time. Although I did called and emailed them many times after 60 days, they kept refusing to refund me. So, I ask for a refund for that item. Here are the detail of the item

      I returned a pair of ****** ********************* pump shoe because it was a wrong color in the box received. I did a Drop off return November 4 for a refund and I get a problem of suspicious activity and sent a photo for ID and still have not received a refund for the return. They said my photo was pending since November 7th and needed a new ID. Which I did. However Amazon allowed another shoe purchase and returns and a refund after these shoes were returned and didnt have suspicious activity in those items. The amount is $144.40 that should be refunded to me. My shoe return was made at Whole Foods and return was verified and showed a refund due. There is no reason I should not get my refund

      I am rejecting this response because:
      You have had plenty of time to review my sent photo, which I had a very difficult time submitting a photo, and you have allowed other transactions to occur on my account after this shoe return. Therefore, how can you claim security measures when these measures werent in place for additional  purchases?

      After looking into our records, we found that you have already submitted an ** with us, but we were unable to validate it. This is due to various reasons such as the photo could have been blurry or the ** was expired. You are welcome to re-submit your ** to continue the investigation.

      You will receive an automated email with instructions on how to share this information with Amazon. Once you submit your information, it can take up to 3 business days for us to finish our investigation.

      I will not be satisfied with the response until my refund is complete because according to the return invoice the return is complete. I will wait until December 6th, as requested, to notify you if my refund has not been issued at that time.
