      I order an Apple Watch from Amazon on October 22 2023 and it was the wrong item that got delivered. I requested for a refund and Amazon asked for a picture of the wrong product that was sent and the date and time written on paper when this picture was taken. Then Amazon scheduled a *** pick up on October 26 2023 for the wrong item that was sent. I returned to Amazon the wrong item that was sent to me. Skip forward to 2 week later I followed up to see my refund status and they wont allow me to get my refund because Amazon want me to verify my identity by providing them with my ID/ drivers license.

Return on 10/29 package arrived back at Amazon on 10/8. After numerous contact attempts to Amazon, 1st said they will reach back in 48 hours, and no response. 2nd contact attempt disconnected without helping. And 3rd representative from Amazon refused to refund even when they can verify the item came back via the tracking number their own company provided. Amazon also is requesting outrageous private information from me just to get my refund. It seems like a scam or really unethically business practices.

      Complaint: 20870300

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Asking for personal identification information is a scam business tactic that is widely use. It is dishonest, illogical and unethical. There is no logical explanation of needing your customer private identification information to process a refund. What do you want next? My social security number? My bank information? My organs? Where does this end? You can verified my return through the same tracking number you provided. You have received my return item, process my refund or send me back the item. Asking private personal information is unethical and unnecessary.

      Around November 3rd I ordered two (similar) items which promptly arrived in unsatisfactory condition. One was broken, the other was missing parts. I initiated two returns, one for each item, and in the process of preparing mixed up which thing belonged to which return label. An amazon rep assured me that it didn't matter, just affix one label to each return box and they'll both arrive in the same place and be processed. Since then, I've had one refund, and a claim that they did not receive the second item. Then I was notified that the item I returned was damaged. Then they said if they don't receive it in the return center they will recharge me for the refund they gave. Then they requested an unreasonable amount of personally identifying documentation or else they wouldn't consider refunding me. To summarize: I returned two items within a day of receiving them and amazon is giving me all kinds of conflicting info in order to avoid refunding my money.

      Thank you for replying to my situation,  indeed I am distressed by the treatment I've received. 

      Regarding the refund of item 1: of course I'm satisfied that my return was refunded.  I am,  however,  infuriated by the report which demands I send in the item or else I will be recharged for it.  Furthermore that the item I sent in, that you have,  that you at first reported as "used and broken" was destroyed and disposed of.  That is outrageous and unacceptable.  How dare you destroy the thing and then claim it was not the right thing,  are you kidding me??? Look again! It is one of the two things I received and sent back and if it does not match the description of the label well I have tried MULTIPLE times to tell you why that would be!  

      And 100% no, you do not need my ID to process my refund,  you have never before needed it and you don't need it now. And then you said it will take you three days after I submit ID to determine an outcome of the investigation?? 

      This has got to be a joke.   Either a joke,  or a scam.  

      Not to worry,  I'm content to file a chargeback.  And to leave the most scathing review on the BBB website. 

      And to cancel my account with **********************.  

      Nevertheless,  thank you for your time.  

      Sincerely,

      I placed on an order on Amazon.com which included 4 items - Order # ***-0590296-5267462 on November 5th, 2023. Two of the 4 items were delivered but when checking on the other 2 items which were shipped separately where shown as undeliverable, however, they were all being shipped to the same address. I called customer service and after 4 phone calls and repeated request to speak to a "supervisor" actually a "lead" person - the person advised me that the items were undeliverable because they were damaged and returned to Amazon. My complaint is that Amazon's customer service practices are not consumer-friendly. As a consumer/customer I should have been immediately advised that the damaged items were received back by Amazon and they should have asked me if I wanted a refund or if I wanted to order the items again, however, Amazon's current practices is to mark the items "undeliverable" not "damaged" as they were. They offer a refund which I will eventually receive but I had to contact them to request the refund and waste my time to get an actual explanation. Now I have to wait for my refund and I had to reorder the 2 items that were returned to Amazon damaged.Why is it the customer's responsibility to discover that their items were damaged and not "undeliverable" as they stated. As a business person I find Amazon's practice of not contacting the customer when items are returned to ********************** as damaged is not acceptable.

      Hello Alexandria,

      I'm Sahitya 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.

      It was concerning to hear about the issue with 2 of 4 items from the order.

      Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I can certainly understand why this is distressing.

      Situations such as these are very rare, and are corrected shortly after they are reported. Please be assured that we would definitely work on your feedback and ensure that such issues do not arise in future.

      I've reviewed the order and I see order was shipped in 2 shipments as products were from different facility centers for which an email notification was sent on November 5, 2023.

      Two items from Shipment 1 were delivered and two items from shipment 2 which were shipped from a different facility center had an issue due to which package was returned to Amazon.

      I have an amazon account that is used both in the ** and ******. I had received an **** gift card and attempted to use it on Amazon, however, they flagged my account requiring proof of ownership of the card. I provided them with email receipt from when the card was issued to me, a copy of the digital card, a statement from the card company and even a copy of my ID, however they still kept requesting the same information. They asked me to provide identification to show ownership of my account and I did that as well, however what seems to be an automated process kept rejecting the documents I uploaded.After multiple attempts to provide verification of my card and account, they informed me that they couldn't confirm that the card was mine and proceeded to close my account. At the time of closing my account I had over CA$250 on my Amazon.ca as I had done a return of a pair of airpods the week before the account closure and the refund was to be added to my gift card balance which I am unable to access because of the account being closed. I also had over US$130 on my Amazon.com account in the US which is shared between my family so I usually just add money to the gift card balance for everyone to use. I now have no access to those funds either.I have lost a great deal because of the very unfair and malicious way in which Amazon decided to close my accounts and providing no options for me to receive my money back.Best case scenario, my request is to have them reactivate my account so I can use the funds both on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com or provide an option for my funds to be refunded back to me.

      Hello,

      Amazon reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, terminate customer rights to use *******************************************, remove or edit content, or cancel orders at its sole discretion.

      We removed this customers access to their buyer account on our site. We took this action because an investigation of their account indicated that the customers buyer account violated our terms and conditions.

      Due to the proprietary nature of our business, we do not provide details on our investigation methods.

      We notified the customer of this decision by email on **********.

      Sincerely,
      ********

      On Sept. 19, 2023 I order a Chaise Lounger on Amazon sold by HRSMH for a total of $415.29 (Order#***-2056363-1022634) It arrived on my front porch in a box I put it in the house. A week later I unbox the chaise lounger separate the items using the instructions that where in the box. Two of the large cushions where vacuum seal in a bag to save room the box was flimsy from shipping and as I removed the items the box tore in several places as I removed the pcs. As I use the instructions to assemble the chaise I was suppose to receive an left arm & a right arm instead I received two right arms and I couldn't assemble the chaise. I contacted the seller by text on Amazon website about the defective chaise asking for a full refund. The seller contacted me back by text accepting my return sending me a return label but I must pay the postage. I sent him a text on Amazon informing the seller this is his mistake I paid to have a good chaise delivered not a defective chaise this is his mistake he needs to pay for the defective item to be return and to return my payment in full. Then I file Amazon A to Z Guarantee with Amazon meeting all the criteria. The seller contacted me ask me to send pictures and he would refund me and I didn't need to return the chaise. I sent pictures as he request and informed him I have no use for the chaise I will have to pay to have it removed he didn't honor the agreement. He kept asking me to withdraw my complaint with Amazon then he would pay me which I refuse to withdraw and informed the seller it was for both of our protections. Since then Amazon has denied my request for Refund under the Amazon A to Z Guarantee even though Amazon supervisors say I meet all the criteria and have filed grievance's on my behalf.

      I also filed a dispute with my Amazon Credit Card over the purchase of this defective chaise lounge in which Amazon says I no longer fall under the Amazon A-Z Guarantee since I filed with my credit card company. I disagree if Amazon would have honored the their guarantee in a timely manner I wouldnt had to file with my credit card company. Consumer have rights against defective products being shipped through the mail I am also reaching out to the *********************** concerning this matter. Amazon also claim to refund my money on November 15, 2023. Just another lie amongst many.

      The seller must pay to have the defective lounge package and shipped back to him. I didnt receive what I paid for and I will not pay for the seller mistake. I meet all of Amazon A to Z Guarantee and you denied the claim is a violation of the consumer right law. Obviously ***** you didnt take time to look at it he history of the issue or you havent been trained on Amazon policy. Our worst youve been instructed by upper executive to not honor Amazon A to Z Guarantee and cheat the customer.
