I had an Amazon.com account under **************** for many years. I had accumulated over $12,000 in Amazon cash on there, from gifts from family as well as from earnings from various gigs I've performed (like cash back phone apps). I have been using the account for years and then suddenly on June 15th, 2023 I received an email saying that my account had been closed for violating Gift Card terms and conditions. They stated that you are not allowed to use Amazon Cash to purchase gift cards for other companies, which is mentioned nowhere on the product pages for gift cards. I would never have done that had I known it was not allowed. I never received any kind of warning email that it was a violation, just the sudden closure email.I completely don't care about my account being closed, I understand that I was in violation even though the terms and conditions were not visible on any page I would have seen on their site during the purchasing process. But, the issue is that I have repeatedly contacted Amazon about returning my Amazon cash, which they just are ignoring. I have contacted them 4 times and each time they say they will respond with a resolution, and twice they have responded only to the account closure portion and ignored the Amazon cash return question, and the last two times they just didn't reply at all (even though I received an auto email saying they'd definitely reply within 1-2 days).I just want this money returnedeither in cash or in Amazon cash. Thanks so much for your time, I really appreciate any help I can get.Business Response

Dear BBB Committee,I am writing to file a complaint against Amazon regarding the restoration of my seller account. I have provided all the necessary documents to verify the legitimacy of my business activities and comply with Amazon's requirements. However, despite this, Amazon refuses to restore my account and demands information that is confidential and not available for disclosure.I would like to emphasize that my supplier (Btswholesaler) cannot provide the contact information of their own supplier due to contractual obligations. This restriction is in place to safeguard confidentiality as agreed upon by both parties. Therefore, I am unable to provide you with that information.Additionally, I would like to highlight that I am enclosing copies of all the invoices related to my transactions for BBB's review. These invoices provide comprehensive details of each transaction and serve as further evidence of the legitimacy of my business operations. I believe that a thorough examination of these documents will demonstrate my compliance with BBB's standards and reinforce the urgency of resolving this matter.Once again, I kindly request BBB's intervention to address this issue promptly and ensure a fair resolution regarding the restoration of my seller account.I fully understand that BBB is an organization dedicated to consumer rights protection and complaint resolution. Therefore, I seek your assistance in this matter. Please intervene with Amazon to request the restoration of my account, taking into consideration that I have provided all the necessary documentation available and in compliance with Amazon's requirements.Yours sincerely,***********************Business Response

I ordered two items on June 30, 2023 (order #***-7427682-2677814 for $63.70) that were supposed to be delivered same day. I used a gift card for the purchase. The items did not get delivered that day and I was notified that their carrier (not *** or ****** but one of their local carriers) lost my package so I would need to cancel the order to get a refund. I cancelled the order, but have still not received my refund so I asked Amazon to call me today. I was informed on the call it may take 1-2 weeks for me to receive my refund because they have to wait to get the package back before they can issue a refund. How are they going to get the package back if the carrier lost it? They have no explanation and say the only process is to wait 1-2 weeks to get the refund. Trust me, I argued with the guy who barely spoke English and even asked to speak to a supervisor/manager, but was informed they have the same information and will tell me the same thing so he wouldn't transfer me. It is crazy to me that such a large corporation can hold my money when the mess up was on their end (I never got the package because they told me their carrier lost it). I really need one of the items, but honestly I'm afraid to order it again because it may get lost again and I will be out even more money so I may just purchase it somewhere else.Business Response

Tried to return an item that is defective and Amazon scheduled a pick up with *** for the item. However, *** attempted to pick them item up on June 19th, during a national holiday when my business was closed. *** has not attempted to pick the item up again, so I tried to drop the item off at a *** location. However, Amazon is saying that my return is outside of the return window and they are not willing to make any exceptions although *** never attempted another pick up for the item. I have tried to speak with several Amazon customer service representatives, and not only does every representative I speak to give me different information, LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE PERSON I spoke to refused to help me figure out the best solution and disconnected the call without any reason leaving me out of luck with no resolution to my concern. I was not aggressive with any person that I spoke to, only desperately pleading for help, only to be hung up on. This is completely unfair, especially being that I am a paying Amazon prime customer. I pay a premium fee every month for Amazon services, only to be treated like c*** when trying to resolve an issue. I want my money back for the item and I am going to be looking into hiring legal representation to assist with moving forward with legal action against Amazon. I have canceled my prime membership as a result, and will no longer use Amazons services. This company is notorious for taking advantage of their loyal customers and making it difficult to obtain proper customer service. This business needs to be seriously fined and reconstructed or just simply close it down. There is already a huge class action lawsuit against Amazon for not upholding my to their Prime benefit of one to two day delivery. I am highly upset at how Amazon has handled this situation and I have given them several chances to do the right thing.Business Response

I see the concern about the return pickup you have shared and have looked into the options on this issue. While we regret any aggravation and misunderstanding, we will not be able to issue a refund without the return being received and verified physically in processing.
The order ending **** was placed Thursday, May 11, 2023 and the return window expired on June 16, 2023. I see the return label was requested on Friday, June 16, 2023, and a pickup was requested. In this case, we request you to work with the carrier to ensure the item is picked up. We request you to use the label that was issued within the return window as once the window passes, we have limited options. Further, you may see return shipping and restocking fees apply on refunds.
I see your disappointment in this matter, and have passed on your feedback regarding the returns process and Prime to the correct internal teams. I am not able to offer any new information at this time.
We hope to see you again soon.

Amazon.com closed my account without my permission so even if I wanted to return the item using the original label, there is now no way for me to do so. In addition to Amazon.con closing my account without my permission, I also had additional orders that had lot been completed prior to the account closing, and now I dont have those items nor did I ever receive a refund for these items. When I contacted Amazon, I was told that they had no record of the orders due to my account being closed.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Amazon Closed my account without my permission. In addition to the account being closed without my permission, this was done while I still had active orders. When I contacted Amazon customer service, I was told they had no record of my account or my open orders whenever I provided my information and order numbers. The orders were delivered to an Amazon locker inside of my apartment building which I no longer had access to being that my account was deleted. ********************** told me that there was nothing that they could do, and that the orders in the Amazon locker would be returned to Amazon after several days and I would be refunded. However, I was never refunded for those orders. In fact, I looked at my bank statement and Amazon charged me three additional times after my account was closed

I called Amazon customer support several times to get 3 invoices. Their representative from *************** was aggravating and dont know what they are doing. They told me to look on my bank statement for my purchases. I explained that bank statement only give deductions it does not give the purchase items. I further stated that in a America customers are entitled to invoice to show their purchase. I had to explain myself several times to their representatives in *************** to no avail. Another time I called and spoke with a man with an Indian accent, asking me for my bank account information to look up my account. I told him no , why do you need my bank details when you can look it up by the item number. Amazon should sent out invoice with each purchase to avoid these problems.I filed a FTC Complaint when man with the Indian accent wanted by bank information which I refuse. Amazon is probably one of the reason their is fraud and identity theft in America. . These foreigners should not be asking personal information.Business Response

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 the issue you have shared with us when trying to access your invoices, I have reviewed your recent reaching out to us in detail. We regret any misunderstanding or aggravation on this issue and I have referred your concern regarding security to our internal teams.
Amazon takes all security-related matters very seriously and your account security is our top priority. We have policies and security measures in place to ensure that your personal information remains secure. Because invoices contain sensitive payment information, we are unable to send them via e-mail or fax.
In this case, let me reiterate that you have all this information which you can access without reaching us. You can view orders by visiting Your Account (******************************************). You may need to sign in with the account on which the orders were placed.
From Your Account, click the "Your Orders" button to access your order history. Then select the order that you need information on. You can then view and print your invoices through Your Account using the "Print/View Invoice" option on the order details page.
Amazon will never contact asking to disclose or verify their Amazon.com password, credit card, banking account number, or offer a refund the customer does not expect. I have passed on our feedback with a request to review in detail the past contacts you had with us. However, we will not be able to share our findings of outcome of such investigation. The team however, may need to reach out to you in case they require more information.
We further encourage you to use the following page to report any suspicious activity and appreciate your being cautious during any telephone interactions.

I am rejecting Raman response because:I don't know if he/ she is located as I have spoken ttoother customer reps that follows the law in their country.
I dont think he understands it is customers rights to receive invoices for purchases and companies in the *** : banks, stores, utililties company sends invoices via -emails . ***** does not know what he is speaking about what privacy Is in store receipts that Amazon would not give customers. Unless Amazon as another agenda ( how much money is made for tax purposes.
Another concern he Avoided- why was their representative from ***** asking for my bank account information to look up my account. This is fraud .
I used phone to type and was able to upload my response to Raman. Ask him to send you my email
Customers have the right to their invoices for purchases.

Dear Amazon,
I am sending you my national passport to respond to your latest request for another government-issued ID.
The passport file has the original passport photo, and its also translated into English, as Amazon does not accept Ukrainian. The translation is notarized. That is why it took me so long to respond to your letter.
I am sending you my third identity document, and I hope it will be enough this time. I kindly ask you to restore my Amazon selling privileges.

Greetings from Amazon.com
We have reviewed the documents that were provided but were unable to complete the Seller's verification process.As a result, the case will be closed and the account will not be activated.
Why is this happening?The documents that were provided do not meet our policy requirements. We are unable to share further information about this matter.
We can see that (3) attempts have already been provided to them to share the requisite verification documents and details.
However, we again verified the documents shared by the seller in the current and the previous cases which were reviewed and post a careful consideration, we are afraid we would not be able to pass this seller account.To learn more about our requirements, review the "Enrollment" section of the Amazon Services Business Solutions Agreement: ***************************************************************

I collected all verification documentation (including additional) that Amazon requested me previously. Additionally, I re-checked the Seller Identity Verification Policy and would like to provide my explanations for each paragraph.
According to the Policy above, the ** should meet the following criteria:
-- Have a clear picture;
The picture of my ** has a high resolution, allowing every letter to be easily read.
-- Be a government-issued identity document distributed and recognized by the country where I am a citizen or resident;
My ** was issued by the ********* ******** of ******* Affairs, a governmental entity. I am a citizen of *******.

The full name on the ** matches exactly with the full name in the seller account.
-- Be in color (black and white not accepted);
My ** is in color.
-- Have a date of birth that matches the date of birth provided during registration;
The date of birth on my ** matches the date provided in the seller account.
-- If submitting a passport or any other acceptable ** document, it should have my signature;

Amazon has told us in 5 separate occasions (via chat and also phone) that we would receive a refund for shipping costs to return a golf cart seat. We were told to pre-pay the return fee up front and we would be reimbursed. I have followed up multiple times and they now are deferring to the "third party' business and still have not refunded the $193 shipping charge we incurred.
