  On June 26th, I placed an order (#***-7812444-6888242) for Valve Steam Deck for $679.89.When we opened the box itself, and the Steam Deck Case, we discovered that the factory seal was actually opened(see photo), and we received an empty game case with a random BOOK INSIDE!! (see photo)This case against Amazon will remain open and unresolved, until a refund in the amount of $679.89 is applied to our credit card. My wife has tried to reach out to customer service who was completely useless.This was entirely upsetting and yet another problem we've had with Amazon and missing components.

  I ordered products from Amazon as a loyal prime member this week. I have had to contact their customer service 4 times this week due to them claiming it will never happen again and breaching their prime contract. The company has claimed they have escalated it and it will be delivered they promise. Today was the last straw. I am no longer willing to try and be polite and respectful when your driver yet again sends a message asking how to access my address. Which is an ungated and open to the public neighborhood. All they had to do was drive up the drive way.. not challenging. Every agent I have spoken to I have advised that *** can back up my driveway. I can pull 5,000lbs on a trailer up my drive way with a two wheel drive vehicle and yet you cannot deliver a simple $20 product. I am always promised and guaranteed this will never happen again and yet you seem incapable of doing the one job your paid to do outside of storing. The last 4 products have been this issue. It seems like your retaliating against me for some reason since all my neighbors have advised they have never had an issue with deliveries. Heck even ***** delivers packageswhat is the point in paying for a premium service when you dont meet your end of the agreement? When every time I call I cant get an actual resolution but someone who is going to email some else and not actually get any different resolution. They say oh, Ill report the driver, or Ill get a different driver, it seems as a multi million dollar company you care more about money then servicing your customers. I use you for personal and business transactions. I want to know what is going to be done going forward that you will actually deliver packages to my house when ordered? And please dont tell me you attempt and then speed by my house.. I tried catching up to your driver but they were speeding and this humiliating situation is not worth the ticket!

  I ordered a laptop for my business. The driver came by at ****pm today (Jun 30) and the secretaries were at lunch. Instead of the driver coming back, I learned from an email from Amazon that the computer will not arrive until July 3. That is 4 days from now. This is yet another time when my company's Prime membership obligations have not been satisfied. In fact, today, the company sent a message stating Order ****** will not arrive until July 2 although it was supposed arrive today (Jun 30).I want the computer long before July 3.

  my wife has stage 3 cancer. I am a provider for her.... we bought a bed side toilet that came incomplete. It was missing the bucket that she would relieve herself in. Any free time I got in the past month, I tried to receive with a refund from them. They originally asked for a photo of the chair showing the missing part. Then asked for a photo of the chair with the missing part with a piece of paper showing my name and date... again I sent it in the time they needed. My wife had health issues arise and prevented me to call them back in a timely manner. I called them yesterday they said I DID NOT receive the photos that they required to file a refund. I told them I sent the photos and had proof in my email address showing the sent date of the photos... ***, the supervisor, told me to attach the photos to and email she was sending and call back the next day. and they would make an exception. The next day I spoke to ******, another supervisor, he said my proof was not valid, even though it showed the dates I sent it, and it was beyond the refund date... even though I gave them proof and sent it in the original time as well.I think it's really messed up for them to treat a family going through cancer this way.

  Hello ******,

  I am so sorry to hear of the issue you have shared with us regarding the defective item Drive Medical 11148-1 Steel Bedside Commode Chair, Grey.
  
  In this case, there's no need to return the item for us to issue a refund. I've made an exception and issued a refund of $50.70 to your original payment method. In most cases, once a refund has been submitted, the issuing bank will post it to the concerned account within 3-5 business days. This time frame may vary from one financial institution to another.
  
  Your patience and understanding are greatly appreciated.

  Hello, On January 15 I purchased an Amazon ******* ($335.07) and a 4-Year Warranty Plan ($52.35) on Amazaon.com. The ** was shipped to my property that I am not always in. When I arrived in May to set it up, the ** did not work. The screen was just black and I could not register the **. I have been attempting to contact Amazon and the warranty company, SquareTrade, via Allstate Protection Plans for a month now. I registered our plans on Allstate Protection Plans website and they are active, added the order receipts. The Allstate website directs customers to an Amazon **************** number for claims, ********************** reps are unable to file a claim, even a supervisor. All they will do is email the third-party warranty company and say we will get a response in 48 hours. That does not happen, I did it on June 13 and never heard back. I tried it again today with the same result. Neither side will help, although they acknowledge there is a warranty on the **. I need someone to resolve my issue for a product replacement and honor the warranty I purchased.

  I received a 2-pack of Milwaukee 6 amp hour batteries for Xmas and returned them to **********************. They were received at the ********************** facility in ********* on April 13, 2023 at 7:30 pm. I was told the refund would take 30 days to process due to the fact that it was a gift. When the refund never showed up, I contacted ********************** again and was told I would receive the refund in 3-7 days. Again it didnt show up. I have spoken with 1-2 people per week from ********************** over the past 2 months, and every single time I spend a minimum of 1 hour on the phone, and the answer is always the same. I will receive my refund in 3-5 days, or 4-7 days. Yet, here we are on June 30th, 2.5 months after the item was received by ********************** and they still refuse to give me a refund for the returned item, nor will they return the item to me. Short of getting a lawyer and attempting to sue ********************** for theft, I truly have no idea what to do. I am at my **** end with ********************** and their customer service representatives because I have spoken to nearly 30 individuals over the last 4 months and quite frankly, this whole situation is absolutely absurd! Please help me with this corrupt organization and their unlawful and immoral practices. They owe me $159 and refuse to settle their debt.

  I paid $62 on a product that did not work, and was not as described. At first I thought that it was user error, only to purchase the product again and find out it is a defective product. I reached out to customer service and they explicitly told me that they issued a refund for the item. A few days pass, and still no refund to my Amazon account or original payment method. I reached out again and was told that it didn't matter that the previous agent already confirmed a return, but that their "system" would not allow an option for a refund. Not only that, but the employee asked me WHERE I used the item, which is incredibly invasive.

  I purchased a product from Amazon seller, the box arrived damaged along with the product. The seller offered to a $30 credit and told me to give away the product or throw it away. I told the seller this was not acceptable of asked for a shipping label to return the product, he would not send one and said he did not have to refund my money as he didn't receive the product back. I told he told me to throw it away, and I was not going to pay for return shipping. Amazon told me repeatedly. they would refund the $280 dollars, I also paid $40 for shipping. Amazon have spent 3 days saying the refund is on the way and today I was told they can't refund my money as the seller hasn't responded and I haven't returned the product. I have spoken to many leadership people at Amazon, each tells me a new lie and no one will process my refund. I feel like this is fraudulent behavior and keep telling them I will be reporting it to the BBB, they don't seem to care about that. Please help me. The transcripts are available from the seller offering me a $30 refund etc, and there are pages and pages of chat transcripts from different chats with Amazon staff. I feel at this stage you are my only hope of getting to the bottom of this and getting my money back. The total is $320 with shipping. The product was damaged by the forklift that icked up the bx, the box was split open with pieces missing and damage to the wood from the forklift. The seller acknowledged this after I sent photos to him. I also sent 10 photos of damage to Amazon as requested.

  I am rejecting this response because: I was told by the seller to throw away or gift the damaged product. I threw the broken pieces away, I sent photos of the damaged box and product to the seller. He offered me $30 which I rejected. I cannot return a product that was thrown away. I was also told by amazon that they would honor my purchase and make the seller return my money. I have cancelled the payment through my Credit Card.
