      I purchased an item on Nov 26, and returned it on Dec 3. It was a processor costing $310. I returned it to the *** store using the ** code given to me by amazon. The tracking number was never updated, this being the issue. Ive repeatedly gone back and forth with amazon and the *** store to no resolution. I finally get a log that proves I returned the item on Dec 3 and that it was picked up by a *** driver on Dec 6. Since it was a ** code return, it was bundled into other boxes with similar return methods. Thus leading to the inability to use the tracking number as a new one is associated with it. Ive told Amazon this but they have insisted to have the original number updated. I thought this log would be enough proof but the rep told me it wasnt and then hung up on me. *** made about 20 attempts to simple get a refund as Im out of $310 and ultimately a processor as well. Ive done all that I can and will potentially do a chargeback if nothing is resolved.

      I received an item for Christmas that I wanted to return for a Amazon Gift Card Balance. I did not receive an gift receipt for the item so i contacted Amazon and was told they would send me emails with return QR codes so I could return the items to *** and receive a gift card balance. I took all of my items including RMA ID: ************ Griddle Accessories Kit, 135 PCs Griddle Grill Tools Set for Blackstone and Camp Chef. I received refunds for all of the items except for this one and all items were sent back on the same day. I contacted customer support and after a long period of giving them all of the information I had was told I would just receive a refund of ***** in a two to three hour period. It's been a day and still no refund. So I contacted customer service again and after a long period of providing the same information was told something completely different that they had received the item and I would need to wait longer for the refund. I asked them to tell me which tracking number was associated with the item and they told me the first one, as you can see on that tracking reference the item associated with it weighs only .88 lbs. So you're telling me 135 piece griddle set only weighs .88 lbs. After calling them out on the lie they just said they understood my concern. I requested a new representative and was told the same thing and that there was nothing they could do. Then was told they found the item and it was received on the 9th and i would just have to wait. Before i could ask a question the representative just left the chat and hung up.

      Hi, I am *************************** We opened seller account with Amazon and paid seller fee of $39.99 for professional plan in early Sept. 2022.

Immediately, I reached Amazon and provided following documents for identification, verification and re-activation of my account but account was not activated.Govt.

      I ordered an iPad air at Amazon on 12/8/2022. the price is $492 and found it was an open box when I received it. After that, I submitted a return with the customer service, and *** also picked up my return on 12/12/2022.But since then, they have not given me a refund and closed my account on the grounds of security login. After I found customer service for security verification, I received a message that they closed my account. And I didn't get a refund. I need them open my account and refund my credit.

      I placed an order on 1/9/2023. When I placed the order Amazon advertised that this order was eligible for next day shipping and my item would be delivered on 1/10/2023. On 1/10/2023 I was notified that my item was delayed. The estimated delivery date was still 1/10/23 but a later time. Later in the day I was notified that my order was delayed again but was not given a new estimated delivery date. At this point, with no delivery date in site, by the time my order arrived I would no longer need it so I attempted to cancel. I was unable to cancel my order. I reached out to amazon customer service and they claimed I could not cancel my order because it is in the advanced shipping stage. I asked why my item was delayed and they said it was because the item was unavailable. I asked what my new delivery date would be and they could not provide one. I asked how my item could be in the advance shipping stage if the item is unavailable and why they cant give me a delivery date if the item was in the advance shipping stage and was not given an adequate response. I asked why, if the item was unavailable, was I unable to cancel my order, and why on the website its still being advertised as eligible for one day shipping. Again I was not provided an adequate response. I requested, again, to cancel my order since, in their own words, its unavailable and they cant give me an estimated delivery date, and was told I couldnt cancel because the item is being prepared for shipment. I pointed out again this doesnt make sense-how can it be in preparation for shipment when you keep telling me the item was unavailable? I would like a credit in the amount of my order since I was promised next day shipping. I even gave Amazon an extra day to deliver. Amazon failed to deliver in the promised timeframe and provided inadequate information and customer service. The order number is ******************* Torani Sugar Free Syrup.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
