I was using amazon.ca customer service chat bot to resolve an issue. The chat bot was not capable of resolving an issue I was having, so asked if I needed to speak to someone. I indicated yes. I was connected with a live customer service rep. ******* of routing my call to ****** I was routed to ******* Washington, which resulted in an international phone charge of $30.40 with my ***** mobile phone carrier account. My complaint is I shouldve been routed to a ******** customer service representative. When the ********************** representative saw that I was an amazon.ca customer, he/she shouldve immediately recognized that I was calling from out of country and routed me to an amazon.ca customer service representative. It is responsibility of amazon.ca to make sure that its calls are routed nationally not internationally, as this resulted as a charge to my mobile phone bill. After spending thousands upon thousands of amazon.ca, I think Amazon would have the business acumen to realize that compensating me for their mistake to the tune of a mere $30.40 is a lot cheaper than it will ever be to win me back as a customer. I want ************************* to issue me a credit for $30.40 for accidentally routing me to an international call center.Business Response

On December 17th, 2022, I ordered 3 tubs of laundry detergent. Initially the order was supposed to be delivered by Dec 31st, but it has been tagges as "running late" on the app, ever since. Today, March 4th, I realized I had never received the order and contacted Amazon to resolve the issue. After **** an hour in chats and calls, I have been left without anything. The company claims the item is expired and that I waited "too long" to contact them. They were going to "try" and refund my money, like it was a favor. It is NOT my responsibility or my job to keep track of Amazon orders. They are paid to deliver, both a service and a product, and have failed to do both. They have also wasted my time, and that comes with consequences. AMAZON needs REPLACE the items, REFUND my money, compensate me for time and trouble (according to their own terms of service) AND APOLOGIZE. This is the bare minimum.Business Response

I am the account holder and owner and the **** card ending in ****** and expires on 4/27 is mine and under my name. Amazon has not helped me restore my account which I pay monthly for with my prime membership.Please help me access my accounts again.

This is regarding AWS account ************, associated with the following email, which I no longer have access to: ******************* I work for a large Enterprise that is one of Amazon Web Service's (AWS's) biggest customers. There was a use case in which someone asked to use a sandbox account not associated with our Enterprise AWS Organization, and I allowed them to experiment with KMS resource policies in my account. Unfortunately, one of the resource policies' restrictions (for the following Key ID: ************************************* that they created blocked everyone from accessing it, which means no one could delete the key, either. Amazon Web Services has been charging me for this key for a year now. I've opened FOUR CASES with them over the past year to get help deleting this key that I don't have access to and cannot delete, and they refuse to help, always citing, "Oh, we can't delete resources on your behalf..."My phone was also accessed by someone else, which contained both the password for the account's root email as well as MFA on it, and I lost access to both. I've repeatedly informed Amazon that I do not have access to log in as root to my own AWS account anymore, to delete that key that they keep charging me for, or even to close the account. Frankly, it is a risk for this account to be open when I don't have root access to it anymore. I asked for help either resetting my account details so I can close the account or else that they close the account on my behalf, since someone else now has the account details and I do not. They have refused repeatedly and will not even stop charging me for the key that I cannot delete. This is fraudulent behavior.Business Response

Hello Ms ******,
.
I'm Abhishek 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.
We have connected with our internal partner team, who have provided the following:
The customer has opened 4 cases since June'22, and has seemingly stopped communication with AWS Support each time once they're informed that there is no sign of account compromise and they'll need to take manual steps to resolve their account access issue. As of March 15, the support specialist working on Case *********** has sent a 2nd email request for further details, as they have not had any customer response since March 07. At this time, Support can not move forward unless the customer provides those details. While we understand the customer wants a convenient and speedy resolution, they'll need to follow the recommendations from Support or they'll continue to pay for the *** on an inaccessible account.
There is no additional action for us to take, as Support has handled this case per policies and resolution is dependent on customer cooperation. Thank you.
We hope to see you soon.Regards,
Abhishek

I am rejecting this response because: This is completely inaccurate. Amazon Support repeatedly sends its responses TO THE COMPROMISED EMAIL ADDRESS that I no longer have access to, and have not had access to for over a year now, and then claims I am not responding. I have noted at least a dozen times now over the past year that I have no access to this email. It is impossible for me to "prove" that my email was compromised, along with my ***, when my phone was broken into. They repeatedly ask the same questions, over and over, and instruct me to "use my ***" or provide useless information on how to reset the ****** all of which involves access to the email address I have already stated I don't have access to.I've also repeatedly asked them to either close my account on my behalf, remove the *** from my account, or else associate the account with an email I do have access to, and they have been no help at all.

I ordered a guitar listed as to be delivered by Amazon 2/17/23. On the 27th of Feb.. I recieved a notice that it had been delivered. It had not, which was verified by our ring doorbell. I have contacted Amazon customer service about this several times, and, depending on who I spoke to, recieved answers from it had been delivered to an address in VA, to the delivery person made a mistake and it hasn't been delivered yet, and I'll need to wait until April 7th, 2023 to see if it arrives. Additionally, I have been hung up on by representatives refusing to transfer me to someone who can actually help resolve this matter. In the meantime, I have a credit card bill needing to be paid on which I am charged for a guitar I have NOT recieved. All I'm asking for, at this point is to cancel the item and recieve a refund. Amazon's customer service and reliability has definately sunk to a new low.Business Response

Years ago my identify was stolen and my account was closed. Prior to that I sold items through Amazon Marketplace when that was a thing. Amazon shut down the account for misuse and everything was fine until recently.In the past couple years I have been getting emails from Amazon Seller Central saying that I need to submit compliance documents for items that are listed on Amazon. I have no items listed on Amazon and again, the account was closed. If I try to log in with the closed account's information it just says the account is closed.The problem is that reaching customer service or changing notification options requires me to sign in, which I absolutely cannot do because the account is closed. There is no option to contact customer service without signing in.I just want these emails to stop. It may only be occasional but it's bordering on harassment at this point, especially with Amazon not allowing the option to unsubscribe from their spam.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:This is a lie. Absolutely nothing was sent to me on March 16. This is blatant harassment at this point. Amazon will not stop sending me emails. I cannot unsubscribe because my account is closed. Amazon does not give a way to unsubscribe or contact customer service without signing in, which again I CANNOT DO BECAUSE THE ACCOUNT IS CLOSED. Amazon has made it impossible for me to stop the notifications, which is why I am going through the BBB. Whomever is working on this at Amazon's end needs to carefully review the information presented so far and stop providing canned responses. Once again I am sending screenshots of the most recent harassment email that I have received (March 14) and the error message that appears when am forced to attempt logging in to make them stop. I am not a seller through Amazon.

I am a ******* buyer. After purchasing healthcare products from the **** Amazon, I need to ship them back to ***** through a third-party courier because Amazon cannot send them directly to *****. However, the third-party courier company, Highsince, their warehouse located at ***********************************************, took my package privately and falsified the logistics information. When I needed Amazon to provide proof of delivery to that address, Amazons customer service online associate quickly hung up the chat and told me that they would not be responsible for my address mistakes; However, my package was lost, part of the reason is that I have been scammed by ********* and wrote a fraudulent address, but Amazon also must review the fraudulent address. I still have the right to enjoy the after-sales service of my products. It cannot be discarded and deprived together with the product. Amazon refuses to provide after-sales service for my package.

Tell us why here...ORDER # 112-5122468-3229862
I am not asking for a refund! I never asked for Amazon literally on this page for a refund, I bear the loss of my package, but I dont bear the loss of after-sale service rights! So I need Amazon to provide whom they talked with, confirm that the package was delivered, and best for the photo of when the package was shipped, which is my concern which is rational.You need to tell me when, where, who delivered the package, and how to make sure the recipient received it. This is the most basic information that needs to be provided. Again, I dont need a refund. the package has not been received, but it does not mean that the after-sales service of the package that has not been received is also lost. Please do not reply with templates, which is an infringement.

Hello *******,
I'm Sandhya 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've reviewed your complaint details and I'm sorry to know that your order cancelled.
Upon investigating, I can confirm that your order was placed with third party seller "Borlesteianu", on our website.
However, your order has been cancelled due to pricing error. I'd like to inform you that, Amazon acts as a platform where a seller sells and earns, hence we are not authorized to refund/replace/honor the price for any of the seller item on behalf of the seller.
You have not been charged for this order. You can check the same from your Amazon account. However, if you find any authorization, please do reach out to your bank for authorization removal.
In this case, if you need the item you can place the new order on our website.
We appreciate your patience and understanding.

However, I still have not received my refund. Despite contacting Amazon on a daily basis and explaining the situation numerous times, I have been repeatedly told to wait for 5 business days for the refund.On February 28, 2023, I was informed by Amazon to file a police report, which I promptly did the same day. The next morning, I provided Amazon with the police report number. However, I was informed that my police report was invalid because it must be filed within 45 days from the shipping date of the product. I have been following Amazon's instructions diligently for the past two months.I have kept all of my email correspondence with Amazon as proof of my attempts to resolve this issue. On February 14, I received an email from Amazon stating that they were unable to contact the seller, who had apparently run away, and that they had conducted an investigation and would refund me. Additionally, I received an email from Amazon stating that the final date to file a police report is at the end of March. However, I am now facing a dilemma as Amazon keeps stating that my police report was filed too late.
