I bought at amazon.com and the delivery method was to an Amazon locker. Because I couldn't go to pick up my shipping from Amazon to the locker, I was getting a full refund of my order (included in the shipping policy). But then they told me my bank rejected the refund to my credit card (the same credit card I made the purchase). So they couldn't refund me my money to my credit card. I asked my bank if this was true and they told me it wasn't. Because they told me I couldn't get the refund to my credit card I was offered a check or a gift card so I chose a gift card but now I've been thinking about it and this is outrageous, if I made a purchase and didn't receive and supposedly will have full refund this must be done to the same method I use to pay which was my credit card so I want my full refund to my credit card without any excuses. order #***-9573408-9225821Business Response

Hello,
I am ******** 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 understand your concern regarding the refund issue. I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Upon checking on the details, I see that the team have processed the refund to your original payment however it was returned back to our system as "Declined" from the card issuer. This is the reason our team requested to select alternate refund method.
However as you mentioned you have contacted your bank and they confirmed there isn't any issue, it must be a technical glitch due to which this should have happened and the refund declined.
I've shared this feedback with our team to get this checked for necessary action and have processed your refund again to your original payment.
The refund of $48.37 + $65.32 = Total refunded:$113.69 should reflect on your billing statement in 3-5 business days. You will be notified via email once this refund is completed.
Please feel free to contact us directly by replying to *********************************************** if we can be of further assistance.
We look forward to seeing you again soon.Regards,

I'm sorry, the refund for $48.37 has failed again. An email confirmation was sent on your registered email id on Saturday, November 11, 2023 at 10:49 AM (PST). I've tried again to process it to your original payment however it is not going through.
Please confirm if you would like it as Amazon gift card balance on your account. I'll go ahead and right away add it for you.

On August 31, 2023 I ordered 6000mAh Replacement for Dewalt 20V ********************** with Dewalt Battery DCB205 DCB205-2 DCB206 DCB207 DCB203 DCB201 DCB204 Compatible with Dewalt 20 volt Battery and ************** Tool ****** from Amazon. Order# ***-6280029-5461842 Within the first week of using the item one of the batteries was defective so I set up a return. I returned the defective battery with the expectation of getting a replacement battery. After Amazon received the item I was told that it was the wrong item. I contacted customer service to learn more and was told that it was a partial return since it was 1 of 2 batteries. I asked for a return label to return the other battery and was told not to worry that they will issue a full refund and not to return the other battery. I was notified a week later that I needed to return the correct item or my refund will be reversed. I contacted them serval times for a return label and was not supplied one. After many attempts to get a return label none was provided or clear directions on how to return it. I have now been charged the $66.52 and attempted assistance through their appeal and escalation process. They replied "The return window for "6000mAh Replacement for Dewalt 20V ********************** with Dewalt Battery DCB205 DCB205-2 DCB206 DCB207 DCB203 DCB201 DCB204 Compatible with Dewal" expired on October 8, 2023. At this time, we're no longer able to accept the return of the correct item." This is not correct because on October 24 I received an email "This is a reminder to return the item below. Weve issued your refund in advance, but still expect to receive the return. Send the item back by Fri, Nov 3 to avoid being charged again." I am now told today. "However, we'll not be able to offer any further insight or action on these matters, and any additional inquiries on this matter won't receive a response."Business Response

I have 3 charges on my Amazon account (all of which have been taken from my bank account). I spoke to several agents on the online chat customer service and was told they could not find the charges. After two hours of being passed around in the chat, I call Amazon customer service. The first rep tells me they CAN see the charges but cant tell me what theyre from. The next rep says Im making it up and no charges have been made to my account. I would like my money back! I also want to note that one of the cards charged (****) was not my default card and should not have been used at all-there was no money in that account and now Im facing overdraft fees! Will attach photos of transaction list from Amazon and bank statements.Business Response

I apologize for the inconvenience caused regarding the unauthorized charges and for the bad experience you had with our customer support team.
Upon checking on the details, I see that you have a merchant account registered with us and those charges appears to be from that account. I request you to please login to your merchant account to be able to see those transaction details.
If you do not have any merchant account with us or no longer use it, I request you to please contact your card issuing bank and file a dispute to get the refund.

I am rejecting this response because: I dont even know what a merchant account is? Im not sure why Im being charged for something if Im clearly not using it. These charges are unacceptable. If I were actively using a service from Amazon, I could understand charging me for them but I have no notification or understanding of these charges and why they are being incurred. Please do the right thing and make good on this or I will bring myself to close my Amazon account-this would be a loss for your company as I spend thousands on Amazon annually.

Subject: Urgent Refund Requests for CarLink System and Blink Cameras Order #***-8581456-1254620 and #***-2145894-0358622 Dear Amazon Customer Service,I hope this message finds you well. I am writing on behalf of *****************************, who has encountered challenges with two recent purchases: the CarLink system (Order #***-8581456-1254620) and the Blink Camera (Order #***-2145894-0358622).1. **CarLink System:** ****************** has been facing difficulties obtaining a refund for the CarLink system, which was never received. Despite efforts to resolve this matter, he was directed to contact the seller. It is believed that Amazon, as the primary entity facilitating these transactions, should communicate with the seller on ********************** behalf to ensure a resolution. The order total was $295. Norma400.2. **Blink Outdoor Wireless Weather Camera:** Additionally, ****************** has concerns about the order for the Blink camera. The order total was $206.92, calculated from an initial price of $379.99, a Lightning Deal discount of $187.95, and an estimated tax of $14.88. Despite the discounted price and payment of $206.92, there appears to be a discrepancy that warrants clarification and resolution.To support the request for a refund and resolution to these issues, I would like to draw attention to relevant sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCA) and the ************************ (FTC) guidelines that emphasize consumer rights in such situations.I kindly request your prompt attention to these matters, as ****************** is eager to reach a satisfactory resolution. Supporting documentation and evidence have been included for your reference. If necessary, further communication is welcomed to ensure a swift and amicable resolution.Thank you for your understanding and assistance in addressing these concerns.Sincerely,***************************** PS also they threatened to close my business account if I was to do a charge back I have evidence of recorded callsBusiness Response

I have been an Amazon customer and ********************** member for YEARS. I rarely had issues until recently. My packages started being returned to sender. I was told that they were damaged and undeliverable but it happened again and again and only to packages shipped by Amazon. I was told by an Amazon driver that the drivers **** them undeliverable if they don't want to drive to the address for delivery. I am no longer getting anything I order unless **** or *** delivers it. I've spoken to numerous Amazon "customer service agents" that have accomplished nothing. I've asked to be provided the number to the fulfillment center the packages are coming from and was told there is only one phone number for Amazon. I've wasted so much time and money trying to get things I can't get locally for my wedding and daughters' birthday party. I want the delivery issue fixed or refunded for my Amazon prime membership. Amazon needs some serious customer service work. All of the items I attached pictures of were ordered within a 3 week span and all returned to sender by Amazon delivery drivers. The other image attached is a delivery driver telling me they don't want to drive to the addresses so they **** them damaged and send them back. And if the damage claim is legitimate then the Amazon **************** is extremely careless to damage this many packages for one person in a 3 week time span.Business Response

To Whom it May ********* am reaching out for your assistance because my Selling on Amazon account (********************** Merchant Token: A3LE38YUT6OTKX) has had the Merchant Fulfillment permissions removed due to concerns about out-of-policy drop-shipping, and I cannot get anyone at Amazon to respond to my appeals.For background, due to incorrect inventory counts, I oversold my stock on a single item. I mistakenly tried to preserve the customer experience by placing 2 orders for the item from another online retailer. Amazon has since restricted my account to FBA only **********************, and I cant participate in FBA without removing my ability to fulfill my obligations to the other platforms I currently sell on, ******* and eBay.I understand that the best buyer experience would have been to cancel the orders.

Order date: 10/29/23. Date of Charge: 10/30/23. Amount of charge: $173.91. Product: Beats Fit Pro-True Wireless Noise Canceling earbuds. I received the Beats earbuds on 10/30/23, the same day my card was charged. I found the earbuds to be an inferior product, unable to properly charge. I initiated a return on 10/31/23 and fully complied with the return instructions: I packaged the item I received in the original packaging, carefully boxed the earbuds, and dropped off the package at a *** store. On 11/09/23 I received an email from Amazon saying I returned a different product than I received. After two phone calls and two emails I was informed I sent back the same product with a different serial number. However, I sent back the exact product I received. Any error concerning the serial number is completely *********************** doing. I sent back the exact product I received. I have never had any other Bests product. I received three emails informing me Amazon is refusing to refund my return.Business Response

Based, on the update from returns team the product that was returned to us was beats fit pro with different Serial Number /IMEI number ************* instead of the correct Serial Number/IMEI Number *************.
At this moment, we are unable to process the refund on the order.
Thanks for your patience and understanding in this regard.

I am rejecting this response because: Amazon claims I sent back a product with a different serial number than the one I received. I, in fact, returned returned the exact product I received. If there is a mix-up on the serial numbers its the fault of Amazon and not my fault. Amazon now has both the product and my money. Since I found the product to be inferior, I should receive a full refund.
Sincerely,
