      I ordered Jelly Babies online (order number 111-5866985-6882603) and instead received a package of self-threading screws (which had a label for order 111-0229685-6437022). Obviously, there was a mixup in Shipping. However, because the Jelly Babies are subject to a non-return policy, I cannot start a return through the normal return process on the website. I'm stuck, and out $17.53.I just want a refund or delivery of my original order. And shipping info to return the screws.

      I was charged twice for two items totaling $860 Each. Upon seeing this I canceled the one before it was to be delivered. This was not canceled at all but was written down as "refused" and I was told I would be refunded for the full amount, This started April 15th 2023. After many attempts I was sent an email (snippet attached shows confirmation part) confirmation stating that a check was approved on May 1, 2023 and that i would receive it in 6-8wks. Nothing, No check and now when I contact them I get the same emails stating they are processing or some equivilant.

      I purchased a Sandisk Extreme Pro SD card on Amazon.com for prime day. The card was advertised as a 512gb card on prime day, so I purchase the card and later receive an SD card that is only half the size at 256GB. I took a screen shot of the purchase confirmation less than a minute later once received. The picture shows 512GB in both of the screenshots from the app and also one later from the website. I go back in my Amazon.com acct and it now shows that the picture is 256gb and there is actually no option for the same 512gb card on their website. This is literally bait and switch/false advertising. I reach out to Amazon and their only option is to return the item for a refund and they want me to repurchase the item at full price without the prime sale/512 gb, which doesn't make any sense as it was not my mistake. There is absolutely no reason that I should have to pay more money for a SD card that I purchased at the advertised purchase online and it is illegal to false advertise like that!

      My amazon account which I have been using for many years, suddenly got banned yesterday. I haven't done anything unusual recently so I don't know why it happened. When I was trying to login yesterday, I got an error message saying "Account Closed, Your account has been closed for misuse of Amazon's services." I have then created another account to have a live chat to the customer service twice, but they said they couldn't deal with this kind of problem and would pass my case to the account specialist. I then got an email from the ****************************** asking me to provide status of my order. But it is not a problem of an order, but my account was being closed. I replied about the case.At last I got an email saying that "After careful consideration, we have determined that we will not reopen your closed Amazon accounts. This decision is final." without any specific reason. I would like to have my account restored, or at least let me know why my account has been banned.

      Dear Amazon,I placed ORDER #***-7584301-8226641 with Amazon and the package "delivered" to me on July 11, 2023 was NEVER DELIVERED TO ME despite delivery instructions. I live in an apt complex with several parking lots.It is unbelievable and downright insane that I have to file a BBB claim to get my hard earned money back. How do you steal a customer's money and refuse giving the money back (or replacement goods) to the customer when they don't receive their goods? What type of unethical business practice is this? It feels exactly like theft and as if I'm being scammed by your company.You refuse to refund me or send a replacement for a misdelivered package that one of your contracted drivers misdelivered to the wrong address. You also keep insisting that the item was delivered to me even though it wasn't. And bow you are telling me to file a police report for a MISDELIVERED (NOT STOLEN) ITEM.I have confirmed with the police. The police are not equipped to deal with matters like this and they are not able to do anything about misdelivered packages due to the drivers' incompetence. Not to mention, the police **** in my area are facing staff shortages and heavy case loads. In this instance neither I or the police can file or process a false police report about a "stolen" item was never received or delivered to me in the first place. The responsibility lies solely on Amazon.com (the merchant) and its contractors (delivery drivers). I have also already confirmed several times that the package was never delivered to me.Since your team has been thoroughly unhelpful with this matter, having me go around in circles, and want to keep my money / goods hostage by dangling a police report requirement that is impossible to meet in this situation in order to get my owed replacement / refund, you can consider this Amazon.com customer lost for good.I will make sure to go out of my way to purchase goods and services moving forward. Goodbye.From,********************

      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.

      Were sorry to hear that you havent received your items from order in question.

      Based on the outcome of our investigations, we believe the Items was delivered to the correct address. In particular we have considered information from our records, as follows which show the item was delivered:

      - Information collected at the point of delivery.

      - The package weight and reported condition upon delivery.

      You may wish to contact your local police authorities to pursue this matter further.

      If the issue isn't resolved after contacting local law enforcement and the carrier, please contact us back during the business hours of the related police department with a Police Report number, a link to access your Police Report, or a PDF/Image file of the Police Report. There are multiple ways to file a Police Report. Check with your local authorities for ways to file a report.

      In order for us to validate your Police Report, it must be in a "Complete/Closed" state, be reported in the local jurisdiction (city, county, municipal) in which the package was reported delivered, and include the following:

      - The delivery address regarding this incident.

      - The items were delivered according to the carrier tracking.

      - The report was created for stolen items/theft/larceny/incorrect delivery or similar crime.

      - The date the report was created.

      - The name of the police department.

      - If the Police Report was created over the phone: The name and badge number of the reporting officer.

      Were unable to accept Police Reports that are in pending or any other incomplete status, as well as reports not filed in the local jurisdiction in which the package was reported as delivered. The Police Report must be filed before 45 DAYS AFTER THE DELIVERY DATE to be considered for review. Only one Police Report is needed for all orders that are part of the same shipment. A separate Police Report is needed for orders delivered in different shipments.

      To assist in obtaining a Police Report, we recommend that you provide a copy of this email to the police to help explain what has happened. We will happily cooperate with the police as part of any investigation.

      Thank you for your understanding.

Harasankar M, *****, *******, ******, and the rest of the Amazon representatives have been EXTREMELY unhelpful and inconsiderate in this matter. I need this case reassigned to someone in the Amazon *******, Washington HQ.

This is downright unacceptable. Escalate this NOW. I want to REPORT that assigned Amazon delivery driver of my misdelivered package for Tuesday, July 11, 2023 as they need to be REPRIMANDED by AMAZON.COM, and I want my money back RIGHT NOW.

      And since you, Amazon.com, want a "report" so **** bad, here's special, valid report attached below that any state, local, police, or federal government agency can pull up.

      NOW PLEASE GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK AND REFUND ME.

      I placed an order with Amazon on June 9, 2023 for a certified renewed ********* Surface Laptop 3 order #***-4503664-6129064 for $422.57. I received a notice that it was delivered on Monday June 12 via ****** I work from home so as soon as I received the notification from ***** that it was delivered I looked for the laptop. However, it was not delivered to my house and the picture that was included with the tracking from ***** was not of my front door. I contacted Amazon that same day and they told me to look around my neighborhood, contact ***** and file a police report. After many phone calls and emails they confirmed the report was closed on June 15th and said they would issue the full refund and also sent me an email confirming the refund. I waited the 3-5 business days and when the refund never arrived back to my original payment method I called them again on June 21st. I was told that the refund was denied and that they could not provide me more information over the phone but I would receive an email. I received an email asking me to reply to that email with all information. After about 15 emails going in circles, I kept being told I received the package and I kept sending them a copy of a letter I got from ***** confirming that I never received the package, I emailed the Amazon Executive Customer relations team. I spoke with **** from this team on June 26th and she confirmed that she would issue the refund via phone and email. Again I waited the 3-5 business days and never received a refund. At this point I filed dispute with my bank. Then I received an email on July 2nd from Amazon saying that my refund is currently still on hold pending the outcome of a charge dispute filed with your credit card issuer. My bank said that Amazon can still issue a refund when a charge is in dispute especially because that would settle the dispute. Amazon wants me to cancel the dispute so they can issue a refund but I do not trust them now.

      I purchased a VELPEAU Arm Sling Shoulder Immobilizer from Amazon. I received the product in April, and it only began to show signs of being defective after couple months of use.Given the nature of the product, these defects were impossible to notice within the 30-day return window. However, when I reached out to the company seeking a resolution, I was told that they could not accept a return or provide a refund because more than 30 days had passed since the delivery of the product. This seems unjust, as the defects of the product were not immediately apparent and only showed up after the product was used for an extended period of time.I believe the company's return policy for this type of product is unreasonable and unfair to consumers, as it does not take into account the possibility of latent defects that only become evident after prolonged use.In the interest of fair business practices, I am seeking a full or partial refund. I am hopeful that the company will honor its obligations to consumers and rectify this situation.

      If you can't find the information there, you might want to try doing a web search to find their phone number or website.

      Amazon emailed me an opportunity to sign up for the possibility of receiving an invite to purchase an item on Prime Day. They never had any intention of me or anyone else being able to purchase this item at invite price. When I asked the criteria for getting an invite I was told it is confidential. So it is either deceptive fraud to get consumers interested in product and never allow them to buy it at invite price or the invite goes to employees. I am sure it is both. Amazon is disgusting. There are thousands of comments about this online and many news agency stories. It's marketing fraud. They had no intention of ever giving me the invite price. I just want the item at the invite price. If you go on the website the invite price is there, but you are only allowed to add item to your cart at regular price. Fraud.

      I've reviewed your BBB complaint and I understand your concern about  Sync Module 2.

      I've checked the item on our website and I found the information is accurately mentioned in the Item Title Blink Outdoor (3rd Gen) * Solar Panel Charging Mount wireless, HD smart security camera, solar-powered, motion detection Add-on camera (Sync Module required) and also it is mentioned that -

      "We want you to know

      This product includes one Blink Outdoor camera and one Solar Panel Mount. A Sync Module or Sync Module 2 (sold separately) is required for operation."

      Unfortunately, we're unable to issue a refund as the information on our product page is correctly mentioned for customers.
