      Hello, I would like to file a complaint on Amazon for sending out molded and expired food. I also think the health department should be informed but Im not quite sure how to go about all of this. I have contacted Amazon 11 times over this matter, giving them time to make it right, and they refused to. But I do think sending out, expired food and refusing to make it right is absolutely absurd.

      Hello ********,

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message.

      I see your concern about the delivery on your food order that you have shared with us and have reviewed the matter in detail. We are not able to issue a refund or replace without a verification of the issue. 

      I have reviewed the recent interactions we have had with you related to this issue. The information you received was correct, we would need images of the product with product and external package labels clearly visible. 

      This would be required to investigate the matter and once we have this information, we would be happy to research and take this further. 

      We take matters of safety and health extremely seriously, and we have reported the matter to out back-end teams. In the meanwhile, we would need your information to take this further. 

      I look forward to hearing from you soon. 

      Regards,
      Raman R.

      I received a promotional offer IN THE AMAZON APP to download Amazon photos for a $15 prime day credit. I have not received the credit, so I reached out to the customer service team, who told me that I was not eligible because I "downloaded it from a third party," which I absolutely did not. So I call this time, and spend 45 minutes on the phone sending links and screenshots of the promotion and my proof of downloading and uploading photos to the app. They tell me that ****** Play is a third-party, when Amazon SPECIFICALLY redirects you from the Amazon app to ****** Play to download the Amazon photos app. In addition to this, I don't go around screenshotting every single promotion I see because I should be able to trust that it will work, and that a business will stick to their word. And now that I have downloaded Amazon photos app, the offer says I am ineligible for that reason, when it said I was eligible before. No one could give me a straight answer as to why I didn't receive the credit, they just tried to pin it to whatever reason they could think. AND I never received the promotional credit. This is a complete scam just to get you to download more Amazon products and services.

      Hello Bree,

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message.

      I see your concern over the Prime Photos credit offer; I have reviewed your account in detail. I see the $15 credit was already added and an email was sent on Thursday, July 6, 2023 at 1:40 PM (PDT). We will not be adding any more credits in this matter. 

      Please refer to terms and conditions at the bottom of the email for full list of limitations and restrictions. 
      "Offer is only eligible on purchases during Prime Day between July 11, 2023 at 12:00 a.m. (PT) and July 12, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. (PT). Promotional credit will expire at 11:59 p.m. (PT) July 12, 2023. "

      I hope this helps resolve the matter.

      My amazon account, ****************** was randomly locked for "unusual activity" On June 28th, I immediately became aware that there is something wrong with my amazon account at approximately 6:00 PM EST. I became aware because my smart device (my echo dot) connected to my amazon account, randomly started saying that it is now being unlinked from my account. I was not given a email or any other notification. As soon as I heard this, I went on my amazon.com to see if there is something wrong. I notice I'm signed out and I sign back in and it tells me they noticed unusual activity and need to verify ownership. A few hours later, my account was re-instated. Now fast forward to July 4th, 2023, my account is now locked again - no email or text again but I found out because I can't view my recent orders and I'm logged out again. I try to log back in and it says additional information needed but nowhere to submit documents and no email/text to reply to, so I have gone ahead and attached everything here that has been previously needed in the past. I filed the complaint because there is no other alternative to submitting my documentation. After making several calls/emails, my account was re-instated the next day (July 5th). Less than 24 hours after my account was re-instated on July 5th ... today, July 6th, it is back on hold again for the same reason. That's 3 account holds in less than 8 days, please have someone clear ALL flags on my account as this is a recurring problem. Someone working for amazon responding to the BBB complaints responded on July 6th, confirming that my account is in active status but a few hours after they responded, it is back on hold. I have already attached all documentation in the previous BBB contact, refer to that one if documentation is needed or contact me and I can provide it again via secure message or any other secure means

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The account hold problem continues to persist. The business did not make an adequate amount of effort to resolve my complaint. They unlocked my account only to be back on hold on that same day despite there being no new action taken on the account. Multiple reinstatements only for the account to go back on hold within minutes before I even get a chance to try to log into the account.

      While I see the concern shared with the locked account, it was already reinstated and access restored.  

      We had emailed you on this on Wednesday, July 12, 2023 on an email titled "Your Amazon.com account has been reinstated".

      As mentioned earlier, the account is active and it is not related to prime transaction.

      The prime is suspended due to the payment issue by the card or bank. Once you contacted the bank or update the payment method. Try to sign up for prime and it will go through.

      If you still face the same issue try to change the payment method and you can get the prime susbcription.

      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 hear about the problem with your subscriptions. Most subscriptions start with a free trial, so you may only see the option to "Start a Free Trial." The regular subscription period starts automatically as soon as the trial is over. You must be signed in to your account or using a registered device to start a subscription.

      I've confirmed our team has cancelled the Free Time **************** Paramount+ and Amazon Music subscriptions to make sure you won't be charged on the scheduled renewal date.

      As an exception we've issued 1-year of refunds to your card for the subcriptions on July 6.

      For Free Time Unlimited we've issued 10 refunds (all charges) for $5.43 each to your **************** card.
      For **** we've issued 11 refunds for $8.99 each to your **************** Card and 1 refund to a Master Card on your account that was used for one of the monthly charges.
      For Amazon Music we've issued 12 refunds for $4.99 each to your **************** card.
      For Paramount+ we've issued 12 refunds of $9.99 each to your **************** card.

      We are unable to take any actions on orders more than 1-year old. We are unable to refund any additional charges for the subscriptions.

      Please see the Prime Video Terms of Use for full information on cancellations and refunds: ****************************************************

      You can view, manage, and/or cancel your active Channel subscriptions from the Manage Your Prime Video Channels page in Your Account:

      Under their instructions they discontinued service to my Fire/Stick and after a verification form my Bank said I hadn't paid my subscription either. Once I proved they were wrong. They still haven't replaced the Fire/Stick nor had any communication at all. They may have broken my TV set too.

      Hello,

      I am Mahendra 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 completely understand your frustration with this situation, particularly given the time you've invested and the promises made which weren't kept. We care deeply about your customer experience and appreciate the time you've taken to contact us.

      I could check your fire TV on my system, and I could verify that you need to complete a factory reset on the device, in order for you to complete the software updates available for this device. Most likely that is the reason why the device does not work properly.

      Please complete the following steps, in order for us to have in our records that we completed the trouble shooting  steps needed. If you have further issues after complete the factory rest and the updates, please let us know, and I'll be glad to help you with the replacement.

      Note: Remember to send us your shipping address in case we need to replace the device.

      Please complete a factory reset:

      1.Go to Settings on your *******. 
      2.Scroll through and select My *******. 
      3.Next, scroll down and select Reset to Factory Defaults. 
      4.Finally, click Reset.

      Sometimes the Settings screen isnt accessible due to a frozen system or black screen. In such situations, you can use your Sticks remote to reset it to factory settings.

      NOTE: The remote must be paired to your ******* Stick for this method. If you are using a new remote, restart ******* Stick and pair the remote by holding the home button for at least 20 seconds.

      To reset it, press and hold the right and back buttons of your remote at the same time for at least 10 seconds or more. This will initiate the reset process. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.

      After you complete the factory reset please complete all the updates.

      Update FireStick in New Interface

      1.Click the settings gear at the far right side of your screen.
      2.Scroll down and select the My ******* option.
      3.Then, click on About.
      4.Now scroll down and select the Check for Updates or Install Update button.

      Note. Must of the times you have to select the update bottom a few times to complete all the updates. A message will show up when to finish with the updates.

      We appreciate your time and patience in this regards. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

      Regards,

      Amazon wanted me to file a false police report for a package that was not delivered by *** to my address in **********, **********. The package in question WAS NOT stolen or LOST -- it was simply SENT BACK by *** to the SENDER'S ADDRESS in ******, ************. Attached is a screenshot of the package's journey. You will see that package traveled from the original pick up location in ******, ** -- BACK to ******, **. I explained this to 4 Amazon representatives over the phone and chat, but they all told me to FILE A POLICE REPORT because that's the only way I would get a refund. I told them I couldn't file a police report on a package that was NOT stolen or lost, but no matter what I said, they said I needed to file a report. I want my money back for the package that *** did not deliver to **********, **********. And, I want Amazon to know that their representatives did NOT want to listen to me or even LOOK at the package's tracking information to confirm what I was saying. Filing a FALSE police report is illegal in the United Stated, perhaps their representatives in ***** or ******** do not know this. Asking customers to file police reports for items that are NOT stolen or lost is INCOMPREHENSIBLE to me.

      Hello,

      I am Mahendra 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 the order #***-3707006-1287415 as the item marked as delivered but not received by you.

      I understand that the investigation team asked you to file police report regarding the issue. I request you to follow the instructions given by the team.

      As this issue will only be handled by the concern team and I request you to file the police report and share the details to the team so that they can check and help you with the available options.

      We appreciate your time and patience in this regards. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

      Regards,

      I am rejecting this response.

      I call on an Amazon representative in ***************** to read my complaint, see the screenshot I provided, and investigate the situation. Again, this issue needs to be addressed by a U.S.-based representative who can understand that the package in question hasn't been stolen, nor lost! The package was sent back to the seller by **** This is NOT a police matter. I will continue to pursue this issue until someone at Amazon actually LISTENS.


      Sincerely,
