      I had 2 email accounts and Amazon was taking a payment for both email accounts when it actually was the same account with a back up email. I called to request a refund in 10/2022 after calling in 12/21/2021 to advise of this and they didn't even offer me my refund until I called in October of this year. *** in CS supervisor took the time the second call and refunded some and the rest went back on the debit cards I had at the time of the transaction, when 2 had expired and that's where they still owe me $154 the amount that couldn't go back on a expired card. I called several more times until I reach ****** and sent the first email last week and got no response. I have gave them plenty of time to resolve this and I just want my money owed to me. I don't even know how this was possible of them taking a double payment just because I had another email listed on my account. The charges were for my Prime member ship. Amazon customer service is horrible and they don't care and not about the customers and I don't have money to just give away to them. The billing department or whom ever refunds the money isn't responding to my rest. **** noted that a check was requested back in October and still no check so I requested a gift card last week thinking that would be faster and Amazon still hasn't responded to my refund request either way. Check or gift card. I'm a single grandmother trying to have my granddaughter a Christmas and the way Amazon is going she wont have one. I just want my refund period. I have attached the transactions email from ****** the Amazon supervisor, of the payments that were taking from me that were suppose to get refunded back and hasn't. Thanks

      Hello *********, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      I see the concern that you have shared with the Prime charges on accounts linked to 2 separate and distinct email addresses; we have reviewed the issue in detail. The information we provided you was correct, we will not be able to issue any refunds for Prime at this time. 

      An account is linked to a single email address, when you use separate email addresses you are referring to unique and separate Amazon accounts. When you choose to sign up for Prime on each of the accounts, you would see charges for Prime on each of the accounts separately. 

      You can cancel your Amazon Prime membership and receive a refund of the membership fee if you or your registered guests haven't used the membership benefits. To cancel your membership, please visit the membership cancellation page to check eligibility and for options: **************************************;

      I realize you're upset we've been unable to address your concerns to your satisfaction. However, we'll not be able to offer any additional insight or action on these matters, and any further inquiries on this matter will not receive a response.

      Hello ****, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      I see the concern you have shared with your return and have looked into the matter in detail. We will not be able to issue a refund at this time. 

      While we see the receipt that was shared with us, we need the item to reach us and confirmed before a refund can be issued. In this case, the tracking on the Return Authorization shared did not show the return scanned in by the carrier, leave alone being received at our processing center. 

      We recommend you reach the carrier to ask them to locate and return the package to our fulfillment center for a refund to be processed. 

      I realize you're upset we've been unable to address your concerns to your satisfaction. However, we'll not be able to offer any additional insight or action on these matters, and any further inquiries on this matter will not receive a response.

      On December 6th I placed an order for a gift for a teacher and it was a amazon prime item since I pay for the amazon prime service extra money. I was promised the item by December 13th. Yesterday on December 19th I reached out to see why I had not yet received the item and it said 2 day shipment once shipped. I spoke with a representative on the phone and was told they do not have the item in stock and it is coming from somewhere in ******. Amazon has not yet received it and did not know when they were going to and it was only going to be 2 day shipping once they did. This was promised before the holidays and I have to give this as a gift to a teacher on Thursday. I asked for them to do something to compensate or help me and I was told I would get a credit in my account and an email with the phone number to the place in ****** to call and see if I can find out the status. Why should I have to contact their seller myself and why are they selling an item they know they dont have access to or is not even in stock? I never received the credit or the phone number since my call and had to cancel the order and find another item. Why am I paying for a special membership when they are not treating me as a special member or respectfully? My own mother had the same problem last week with an order of airpods and tried to cancel the order and they would not let her. She had to then order them somewhere else and go out of her way to return the amazon order when it showed up late.

      Hello,

      I'm Prashanth 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 apologize for inconvenience you have experienced related to the order #***-5337379-3287449. This is definitely not what we want our customers to experience.

      I do understand how frustrating this must have been to you, being a prime member you expect the item to be delivered with two day shipping and the same is not achieved once the order is confirmed.

      We are working hard to improve the service and selection we provide to you. Ill take this as a feedback and will pass it on to the concerned department for further improvements.

      To compensate for the delay, I've issued a $10 promotional credit to your account, which will automatically apply the next time you order an eligible item sold and shipped by Amazon.com.

      You will not see the credit on your account but you will see the credit applied to your account on eligible order sold and shipped by Amazon at the checkout page under the head "promotions applied". The items "sold and shipped by Amazon" can be found on the website and it will written under the item price.

      We appreciate your time and patience in these regards.

      Please feel free to contact us directly by replying to [email protected] if we can be of further assistance.

      I purchased an item from seller Bestcustom. Order number 111-8432142-4580231. The seller is listed as a "local business to ** zip code". It also says the item usually ships within 2 days.The reality of the situation is that the item is shipping from ***** and the order date is pending because it went through customs.I contacted Amazon several times and they only tell me to contact the seller and wait until my package is delivered. I ordered this item for Christmas. Amazon is offering no guarantee to me about their website listing and will refuse to acknowledge that I was deceived. Every interaction with customer chat has ended with ********************** customer service stopping the conversation. When I request the address of the seller, Amazon gave me information in *******. The information says the seller address in *****. I even paid shipping charges.

      Hello ****************, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      I see the concern that you have shared with your Order 111-0881345-5349855 and have looked into the delivery details referencing the original estimated dates in comparison with the deliveries. We regret any misunderstanding, but we will not be able to issue any refunds on this issue. 

      I see the order was shipped as 3 packages, with original estimated delivery dates between 12/3/2022 and 01/18/2023. While two of the packages show they were delivered successfully, the shipment originally scheduled for delivery on or before Wednesday, January 18, 2023 shows it is in transit and the estimated delivery date has not yet passed. 

      I would request you to allow 4-5 days more to receive the package, if it is not received by then, we will be more than happy to review options and take action as appropriate. 

      Considering the holidays and the current inclement weather events, we appreciate your cooperation and patience.

      I purchased some last minute items for Christmas based on Amazon's products advertising as "Arrives in time for Christmas" days later, the delivery dates change to 12/28 delivery, which is clearly not in time for Christmas. I contacted Amazon customer service to request that the items get expedited shipping (at Amazon's cost) to fulfill their "by Christmas" advertisement, as items have not shipped yet. I was offered no resolution at all, just that the items would arrive as soon as possible. I asked for, and was given a floor supervisor, who gave me the same information with no resolution. I asked for the next supervisor up the ladder and was told that there were no further supervisors to go to, that he was the last point of contact. I just don't understand how they can bait and switch by advertising as "arrives in time" and offer no resolution at all when items will not, in fact, "arrive in time"Order numbers: 112-5935375-4598669; 112-3718394-2432206; 112-2695479-3551408

      Hello *****, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      We see the concern that you have shared with us and sincerely regret any inconvenience due to the delays caused. I see the orders have already been delivered, and we are not able to make any changes to the orders at this time. 

      While we try our best to ensure packages are delivered on time and safely, at times there are events beyond our control that cause delays and disruptions. 

      I see the concern and confirm that we have issued you a promotional credit of $10.00 to your account. This would apply to qualifying items shipped and sold by Amazon as a discount. Your promotional balance doesn't appear in Your Account, but will always display at checkout when you place an order through the Shopping Cart for an eligible item shipped and sold by Amazon. Note that, promotional credits are one-time use credits and once applied to an order are nonrefundable.

      The promotional credit doesn't apply to items offered by other sellers on the Amazon.com website and won't cover the purchase of gift cards, sales tax, gift wrap, or additional shipping costs.

      If you place a 1-Click order for eligible Kindle books or other digital products sold by Amazon Digital Services, the promotional funds will apply to your order automatically before another payment method is charged. The promotion will not apply to digital game and software download orders from Amazon.

      I had purchased several items from Amazon and have been a customer of theres for over ten years. I chatted with an associate and a supervisor requesting either a replacement if one of the smaller items that was missing and was denied. I was one of the lowest dollar amounts in the package and I save all of my packaging for gift wrapping for the holidays and to make sure I did not miss any items that *** still be in the boxes or plastic delivery envelopes. I rechecked all of them several times and did not receive the earrings I purchased. They are refusing any type of help with this error and I am requesting a refund or a replacement as they are a gift to come one close to me. The item was a total of $13.97 plus shipping.

      I see the concern that you have shared with your order and have looked into the issue in detail. I see a refund was already issued on this item to your gift card balance.

      Hello Jahnia, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      I see the concern you have shared with us on the delivery of "LankyBox Foxy Collectible 6" Plush, for The Biggest Fans " on your Order ID: *******************. We have looked into this matter in detail. 

      Based on the results of our investigation, we aren't able to provide a replacement or refund for this order at this time.

      At this time, Amazon isn't able to resolve shipping problems after delivery, as outlined on our website in our Conditions of Use, noted under 'Risk of Loss' which states: "All items purchased from Amazon.com are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier." See ************************************************************************************ for more information.

      We advise you to contact **** in order to pursue this matter further. We also recommend that you consider selecting a more secure shipping address, such as your workplace or an Amazon Hub Locker, in the future to avoid further problems.

      I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact us directly by replying to [email protected] if we can be of further assistance in this matter.

      Amazon does not want to refund or replace an order that appears as delivered but I did not receive, I see bad faith because I have paid with a Gift Card, I cannot request my card issuer a charge-back for items that I did not receive. They wrote:"Based on the results of our investigation, we aren't able to provide a REFUND for this order at this time.At this time, Amazon isn't able to resolve shipping problems after delivery, as outlined on our website in our Conditions of Use, noted under 'Risk of Loss' which states: "All items purchased from Amazon.com are made pursuant to a shipment contract.

      I see the concern shared regarding your order delivery to the freight forwarder location; I have looked into the matter in detail. While we can relate to your apprehension, we have reviewed the delivery in detail and the response was correct. 

      We will not be able to issue a refund or send a replacement at this time.

      I am rejecting this response because the package was not received by Aeropost.com Since I have authorized Aeropost to receive the packages on my behalf and the package was never received, I have requested to my bank issuer a chargeback by writing a Letter for Disputing Credit or Debit Card Charges taken from ***********************************************************************************. The Office of Consumer Protection in ***** is also reviewing the case.
