      My account was deactivated in error due to being related to account named Oksana Savchenko1. The real owner of Oksana Savchenko1 account is *******************************, NOT me. ******************************* was my Amazon account auditor, but I stopped any working relationship with her a long time ago.The erroneous related between my account and Oksana Savchenko1 account arose because of the same credit card in Charge Method. ******************************* and I had a business relationship in the past. ******************************* audited my Amazon account. The audit involved auditing my account information and checking all sections with contact information, addresses, numbers, credit cards. While checking the legitimacy and compliance of the data in my charge method section, ******************************* made a mistake and indicated the payment information on her card. She did not notice she logged in to mine since she has entrance both her and my Amazon accounts. When I noticed the ******************************* card in my account, I immediately deleted it. This unprofessional performance of account audit duties and making such unforgivable mistakes was one of the reasons why I terminated the Amazon Account Audit Agreement with ******************************* (see Notice of Termination dated March 21, 2023). As our cooperation ******************************* came to end we stopped contacting. As I am sole owner of the Enjoy&Buy seller account, I am really aware of my mistake magnitude. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. I described the whole situation as it is. I never owned the account named Oksana Savchenko1. The real owner of the account named Oksana Savchenko1 was my Amazon account auditor, but I stopped any working relationship with her a long time ago. Please check the full version of my Plan of action and attachments to ensure it's true. I guarantee you that deactivating my account was in error. Therefore, I request you to reinstate my account.

      June 14, 2023 Amazon locked me out of my account because they thought there was fradulent activity. I had a $60 gift card credit on the account. I called the number Amazon provided and talked to an associate that told me I needed to open a new account and the $60 gift card balance would be transferred to my new account. I was assured they would have the link from my old account so that the balance would be transfered with out problems. I have since called two more times and told that my balance would be transferred within ************************************ money gift card funds of $60

      I am rejecting this response because: I have be told three times my funds would be restored and now they are requesting a photo copy of my ID to an email with no name or reference number. I was told not to send personal information from an email from Amazon on a previous email. My account is active and was setup with the help of a team specialist on my first phone call regarding this issue. So I think they can easily fix the problem because the have access to my locked account and my new account.

      Hello,

      Amazon reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, terminate customer rights to use *******************************************, remove or edit content, or cancel orders at its sole discretion.

      We removed this customers access to their buyer account on our site. We took this action because an investigation of their account indicated that the customers buyer account is directly related to another account which has been previously closed due to the violation of our policies.

      Additionally, we have provided customer with restricted access to the account where customer can now use their existing ********************** Gift card balance for digital purchases only. All non-digital orders placed on the account will be cancelled automatically.

      Due to the proprietary nature of our business, we do not provide details on our investigation methods.

      We notified the customer of this decision by email on 25 July, 2023.

      firstly, *************** is my only account. i have no related with any other accounts. they got wrong information about my account.

      I purchased the brand new ********* Designer Compact Keyboard thru amazon on 4/29/2023. With merely two months of use, the keyboard stopped working. Amazon replied and refused any assistance/repairs/supports/exchange/refund. Amazon asked me to connect with ********* with I did. I followed every single steps provided by ********* and ********* replied confirmed the keyboard is defective. ********* apologized stating it is a known issue on said keyboard per history. ********* stated that they will email me the prepaid return label to move on the return/exchange process. Its been days and I still didnt receive the return label by email. I connected ********* and they replied and refused my return/exchange saying that they need to go through a deeper investigation with their team, which I think it is ridiculous and unacceptable. The whole story is totally a customer abuse case.

      ******** SoniCare DiamondClean Smart **** Rechargeable Toothbrush Order #: 111-0963717-2852244 Order Date:04/09/2023 $328.11 I ordered this item and received an incorrect item in the box. In the box was a white ******** toothbrush and apparently incorrect model. I immediately went to the Amazon Hub located at *****************************************************************************. After a month, I noticed I still had not received my refund. I contacted Amazon and was informed I returned the wrong toothbrush. I stated I had received the incorrect toothbrush and this was the reason for the return. They stated I needed to return the correct item to get a refund. I have contacted Amazon.Com over ten times for this issue and have received no resolution. I did my part in returning the the item that was sent to me. This is unfair to me as a customer. It was been over two months now with no resolution. Each and every representative I get at Amazon, tells me the same thing. There is nothing they can do. It is not my fault I was sent the incorrect item from Amazon.

      Hello ********,

      I'm sorry for the trouble you had with the order.

      I've checked and see that our appeals team has denied refund as the item has passed the return time and the item returned was incorrect as per the investigations from our side.

      Unfortunately we are unable to provide any further details on this issue. You may continue to check with the ofm@ team for any appeal.

      We look forward to see you soon.

      I am rejecting this response because: Amazon sent the incorrect item to me.  I ordered a Blue Sonicare toothbrush and they sent a white toothbrush to me.  Apparently the model was incorrect as well.  They continue to state I sent the incorrect item back to them.  I returned what they sent to me.  An Amazon account specialist contacted me via email on 04/22/23 apologizing for the error and promised a refund in the full amount of $328.11.  I have attached that email here. I an still due my refund.

      Sincerely,

      In the last few months I placed several orders through Amazon.com. I'm also an Amazon Prime member. Per Amazon's order confirmation I was given a date the order would arrive. Amazon also confirmed when the order shipped and again I was told when the order would arrive. The last several orders, late in the afternoon on the day Amazon told me the order would arrive, I received an email from Amazon letting me know that the ordered was delayed by 2-3 days, or longer. Amazon is practicing false advertising by giving their customers a delivery date, confirming that delivery date, then changing that delivery date at the last minute. When you can finally get through with **************** they have all kinds of excuses then tell you that it's your responsibility to wait 3-4 days for the order to arrive. If you no longer want the order, since it's late arriving, it's the customers responsibility to take time out of their day to drive to an Amazon return location to return the order. I was even told by an Amazon **************** rep that I needed to check around my neighborhood to see if their delivery driver had left my package with someone else. Since when is it my responsibility to track down their error?? I'm tired of ordering things, having Amazon confirm the order and delivery date then learn a few hours before it's scheduled to be delivered, "Oops, it won't be there for a few more days." Be honest about delivery dates and stop making excuses.

      I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused with your recent deliveries. Issues like this where it keep on repeating feel you bad about the service. I would have felt the same .

      We amazon always try to fulfill our delivery promise on time, but in very few rare situations like this happens which makes feel bad about our service. 

      I'll take this as feedback and make sure escalate so that concern team will investigate and take actions so that such issues won't get repeated.

      I am rejecting this response because:  It does not address the issue and makes it sound as Amazon's false advertising of services is "rare" when it happens repeatedly. In addition the "response" is scripted and extremely poorly written by someone who obviously does not speak English. "We amazon always try to fulfill our delivery promise on time, but in very few rare situations like this happens which makes feel bad about our service." It was not the first time it's happened, not even the 3rd or 4th time. Amazon sent an email saying my package shipped, "Hi ******, your package will arrive: Thursday, June 29." Why lie about it?
