  On 12/31/2022 I placed an order for curtains on the Amazon website from a third party seller, WINNY. I was charged $395. Approximately $41 was used from a Amazon gift card on my account and $353 was financed by Affirm. I received the curtains on 2/26/2023 and my first payment of $60.84 was drafted from my bank account by ******. The curtains I received was not what was advertised on the Amazon website. I immediately called Amazon and Affirm to begin the refund process. I submitted pictures of the advertised curtains along with a picture of what I received to Amazon and Affirm to prove the seller was fraudulent. I was informed from Amazon that the seller requested that I pay to return the item which is obsurd since they deliberately sent the wrong items. I was then advised by Amazon to file a A-Z claim that states if there is no agreeable solution with the seller, it is Amazon's responsibility to refund the customer and provide the resolution. The item that is advertised on the Amazon website is not at all what I received which is clear that the seller is fraudulent and they do not want to pay to return their product because they know it is not worth the money. I am constantly getting alerts from Affirm to make payments despite the numerous calls that I have made to them and Amazon spending 1 -2 hours on the phone trying to resolve this issue. Amazon will not take responsibility and refund my money nor will they explain why they keep restarting the claims despite the pictures proving the seller is fraudulent. Affirm is threatening to damage my credit for non-payment, as this has been ongoing since 2/27/2023 and it is now 4/16/2023 and I have submitted over 5 A-Z claims and Amazon continues to tell me the seller refuses to send a prepaid label. I have called every week, 2-3 times a week since 2/27 trying to resolve this issue. This is frustrating. I don't understand how this billion dollar company can be allowed to rob customers and not adhere to their own policy

  In January 2023, I ordered an item from Amazon that was not delivered and Amazon required a police report to continue any kind of investigation. I attempted to obtain a police report and was advised a police report could not be provided by my local police department. I reached out to Amazon to advise them of this and the representative advised they would get back to me with further instruction. I never received further communication and am now being told that the time frame of resolution has surpassed their process and the funds will not be refunded and the item will not be replaced.

  Hello,

   

  We have reviewed the information provided and decided to uphold the original decision on the claim. We have taken this decision because the claim for order 111-9478381-0320253 is not eligible for coverage. The A-to-z Guarantee protects buyers when they do not receive an item or an item does not match its description. Although we understand buyer's disappointment, they received the item and the item matched its description.

  Amazon

  I have books published and available on amazon.com. I have not been able to access my account for over a year. I called yesterday and they said that because I have not purchased anything in the last year they closed my account. So their solution was for me to make a new account using the same email address and I did so. Then they said that they would combine the accounts and make it so I can access my product on my dash board. Well that didn't happen. There is nothing on my dashboard. They have my products available to buy but I cannot access my account. So who is getting the money from the purchases? I want my account fixed.

  It came to my attention today that I have been charged $10.99 a month for a subscription to Showtime on my Amazon prime account for the past 16 months. I don't remember starting this subscription. I cancelled immediately upon finding out today and reached out to Amazon customer service to see if I could perhaps get at least a partial refund as this was a service I had not been using. The agent I spoke to said subscriptions on non-refundable and offered no solutions. Not even a month refund or a credit to my account (for the amount I was just billed for 2 days ago). I searched my emails and found no mentioned of this subscription. No reminder that I was being billed for it each month. Also the charge on my card just said "Prime" and not "Showtime" which is also deceiving. If I should have seen the actual channel name I would have questioned this a long time ago. I have been a long-term Amazon Prime customer. I think this a very shady business practice and company policy that should be addressed. There should at least be a review process and each case considered. I unknowingly spent over $175 on a service I have not used and when I reached out to customer service for help, I am told pretty much too bad that's the policy. This makes me no longer want to do business with Amazon. I am very disappointed.

  I have made purchases through amazon and spent a lot of money. I returned 3 items via *** and have tracking numbers for these items. I have waited a week for a refund when the app clearly says that i will receive a refund when the item is received. They received my items on wed 4/12 today is 4/16 and amazon informs me i must wait 30 days for a refund. If they are going to change the return policy they should at least email consumers that currently have an account with them. The 30 day return policy should be shown when u buy an item.

  Hello ******,
  
  I'm Praveen 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'm sorry for the trouble you had with the order.
  
  I've checked and see that your orders were delivered on 12th and 17th of April, 2023. I would request you to give it time till April 30, 2023 so that our returns team can find the package and process it. Usually it takes 14 days from the date the item is handed over to the carrier and sometimes it might take upto 30 days.

  On April 10, 2023, I added $650 in Amazon gift cards to my balance and paid for an Amazon Prime membership. Upon trying to check out my reinstated account was closed. ********************** had emailed me a computer-generated response notifying me of this. I called Amazon several times. I have hours of recorded phone calls with their representatives and supervisors. I was told repeatedly that the issue was being worked on and they needed to review documents from me, including me and my friend's (whose info is on the account) Photo IDs, Billing Statement PDF, Debit Card, Billing Addresses, Phone Numbers, and Photos of the physical gift cards as well as receipts to those cards. I provided all of this via email to Amazon's Account Specialists. I requested my account be reinstated and noted in the emails if any information is needed please contact me. After more of the same generated responses, I called Amazon several more times. I was finally told by an account management member that it may be due to creating accounts before being reinstated for my services the first time. I didn't know it would give me multiple accounts, as amazon.com states that creating a new account will delete the previous account sharing the same information. I was promised they would escalate and resolve this problem and provide all the information to reinstate my account to the correct team. This was on the recorded line and I was directed to wait 24 hours and check because by then an Amazon Account Specialist would have emailed me or called me personally or reinstated my account and my gift card balance. I paid over $660 to be able to purchase products on amazon.com. I lost over $660, several hours on the phone and writing emails that I could have used working on commissions, and my Prime benefits and credits. Amazon committed upon my purchasing of the gift cards and my membership to deliver that credit to me. They failed to do so. This is theft. My email is attached and is the same one used on my account.
