      I, *************************, the Chief Executive Manager of the Jewelry Manifest LLC, am the owner of Amazon seller account which was deactivated due to an error from Amazon agents side during the video verification process. Note, the same information will be sent to ******************* team with additional documents.The first appointment for video verification was planned for May 16th, 2023, at ***** am PDT [Pacific Daylight Time], but the Amazon Associate never showed up. After that, I rescheduled my appointment right away.The second appointment was planned for 5/26/2023 at 11:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time.To complete our identity verification, I prepared the physical copies of the following documents: - ID Document.- Credit card statement associated with our Amazon selling account. - Invoices for all the ASINs. Amazon Associate asked to confirm the relevance of the address, charge, and deposit methods. I told him my company is in the process of a change of address procedure, and we plan to change it in a week. The agent told me I should update this information and make another appointment with new documents. He assured me that I would be able to do that. On May 30, 2023, I updated our charge and deposit methods.On the next day, May 31, while updating my Business Address, I received a letter of my accounts deactivation. Even though, the Amazon Associate assured me I could go through the video verification process again with new information. I believe that my accounts deactivation was in error. With all changes being made per updates in my companys information, just as promised by Amazon Associate, I should have a chance to go through the video interview again. All my actions were made only after consulting with Amazon's workers.Please, help me to make Amazon to review my documents and reactivate my account or let me go through video verification just like it was promised.

      Complaint: 20280220

      I am rejecting this response because:

      As I stated previously, this did happen, but this is a whole story:

      On the second appointment on 5/26/2023 at 11:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time.
      Amazon Associate asked to confirm the relevance of the address, charge, and deposit methods. I told him my company is in the process of a change of address procedure, and we plan to change it in a week. The agent told me I should update this information and make another appointment with new documents. He assured me that I would be able to do that. 
      I passed that verification. Still, I needed to update our company's business address, charge and deposit methods, and get new documents ready with new data (such as the credit card and bank statements) for the next video interview.

      On May 30, 2023, I updated our charge and deposit methods.
      - NEW Charge Method Account Number: *******************; 
      EXPIRES ON 4/2028; 
      CARD HOLDER'S NAME: *************************** - Jewelry Manifest LLC; 
      BILLING ADDRESS: ************************************************************************************* - 95747-9095.
      - NEW Deposit Method Account Number: **************, 
      BANK LOCATION: *************, 
      ACCOUNT HOLDER NAME: Jewelry Manifest LLC, 
      ADDRESS: *************, **********************************************************************

      On the next day, May 31, while updating my Business Address (NEW Business Address: *************, *********************************************************************), I received a letter of my accounts deactivation without the ability to plan a new one. However, the Amazon Associate assured me I could go through the video verification process again with new information. 

      I believe that my accounts deactivation was in error, as I did only what I was told by the Amazon side.
      With all changes being made per updates in my companys information, just as promised by Amazon Associate, I should have a chance to go through the video interview again. All my actions were made only after consulting with Amazon Associate.

      Sincerely,

      Hello, My name is ********, and I am a member of the Amazon Account ******************** team.

      I've reviewed your e-mail, and I understand you're concerned about your account being closed. While I know you're disappointed with our stance on this matter, I want to assure you the information you received is correct.

      We've found your account is directly related to another account which has been previously closed due to the violation of our policies.

      Due to the proprietary nature of our business, we're unable to discuss other accounts with you, and the decision to close your account is a final one.

      We looked into your order, and AMZL_US has confirmed the shipment was delivered to you in good condition. As a result, we will not be issuing a replacement or a refund for contents of that shipment.Im sorry for any disappointment caused and appreciate your understanding.

      Best Regards,

      I am rejecting this response because:
      I contacted ****** and was lromised  replacements for missings products not received after this report to you was filed. They honored one replacement but not tge other. Additionally, I sent to your office both responses I received from Amazon reguarding the replacements. Why this additional message is being sent to me from Amazon  puzzles me. I am a senior citizen trying to celebrate a milestone birthday. Amazon didn't  honor decorations describled. At this time dye to my age and the humid weathet which  we are being advised to stay out of, I will not walk to any office to return anything. All I request is the item not sent to me to complete the decorations for the celebration.
