      Dear BBB,I received a notification from Amazon Support that they are able to reinstate my account but need additional information. I made a call to Amazon seller support. They informed me that my appeal was rejected because they were unable to verify my supplier. My invoice has all the required information about my goods and the supplier's contact information. After I found out this information, I contacted my supplier. He informed me that the company had not received any inquiries by mail and had not been contacted by phone to confirm cooperation with my store.In turn, Amazon does not contact my supplier to check on our cooperation and the originality of my goods, but rejects my appeals.Therefore, I attached the following documents:- Plan of Action, which includes detailed information regarding my suspensions;- Invoices from my supplier Farfetch;I want to remind Amazon Support that my account was first deactivated for unsupported sales volumes. Later I received an additional notification about account deactivation for inauthentic items.I request Amazon Support to review my Plan of Action, Proofs of Delivery, and screenshots from the official website of *** to understand that my account was deactivated in error. All my sales are supported by Proofs of Delivery from the *** tracking service. It means that all my sales were not bogus and delivered to customers.Also, I attached invoices from Farfetch to prove the authenticity of my goods. Invoices contain all the necessary contact information of the seller. Thus, I provided evidence that my sales are supported and legitimated by proofs of delivery and are authentic, as they were purchased from a reliable vendor. I sincerely request you carefully review all the additional information in the Plan of Action that I attached to my complaint to ensure that my account was deactivated in error.Sincerely,*******************************

      I ordered 2 carports from Amazon on 8/1 (order number 113-3827117-9697853) for $336.94. Delivery was promised 8/4 or 8/5. I needed the carports for 8/6. When they did not arrive on time I was forced to go to a store and buy them. Carports arrived on 8/6. I initiated a return on 8/7. Amazon sent me a shipping label that postage was not included. Shipping costs were $328.78 almost the price of the item. On 8/17 and 8/23 Amazon directed me to ship the items back and provide receipt and my postage would be refunded. I shipped item back on 8/23. I sent the receipt on 8/23. I sent the receipt again on 8/26. **************** requested the receipt again on 9/7. I sent it again. A decision on my return claim was reached on 9/14. My return was approved, a refund on the product was issued. At this point I had still not been reimbursed for shipping. On 9/16 I was told I had to deal with the postage team and they had no phone number email only. 10/3 I was told team was working on a resolution. On 10/3 they asked for the postage receipt again. I sent it. 10/12 received apply for delay in reaching decision. Received exact apology on 11/11. On 11/30 am promised he would look into it. No response since 11/30. I have been dealing with Amazon customer service from day one. They told me last time that this was purchased from a secondary seller. The phone number and email that Amazon provided for the secondary seller is not valid. I just want my shipping cost of $328.78 refunded like Amazon promised they would be on 8/23.

      On August 28/2022 I noticed a charge of $114.35 charged August 26/2022 to my credit card. I had recently thought to try a business account but was not aware that they would be charging this fee, they did so without my knowledge or consent. I called on August 28 to ask them to cancel my business account and to refund the $114.35 that they charged me. They said they could not cancel my account and that I had to do so myself. 3 or more phone calls later and emails I was finally walked through the steps to close my account. I was promised that upon confit of my account closure that I would receive a full refund for the amount of $114.35. I waited weeks and no refund came.I recently called in again on this matter, they located the charge and said that they will issue the refund as we spoke and that I should receive it back to my credit card within 3-7 business days.I have still not received my refund and fully believe that they have no intention of doing so.This matter has been going on for nearly 4 months, I kindly request your assistance in resolving this matter.

      I am rejecting this response because:


      The response from Amazon is not acceptable and is another delay tactic to not refund my money. 
      As shown in previous emails etc I have amready spoken with them and they located my account and the charge to me and promised that they had submitted a refund which was false.
      They simply need to refund the charge to my credit card, information they also have, and to which they had promised the refund would appear in 3-7 business after the call with them.
      Amazon is using any means/excuses not to refund my mo et.
      Please help further with this issue.

      I pur hated an Christmas tree off of Amazon prime on their website/app November 26th 2022. It's now December 20th 2023. The item says it was delivered today which it was not after being delayed and delayed. So I contact Amazon support and 30 seconds of the agent looking she says she sees that the tracking number provided is a fake number. I have been contacting Amazon about this tree now for over a week when it was originally suppose to be delivered. And no other Amazon agent noticed it was a fake tracking number. Then they offer no help because it's third party. How are the going to have some one on there site selling products and then when this happens offer no help. Anyways all they are doing is filing a claim to attempt to get my money back which I won't get till after approved and then wait anotherb5 to 7 business days to process. I have waited a month for a tree to get delivered that they knew was never coming . So here it is 5 days before christmas and still no tree just to find out that amits not even safe to shop on a number 1 website in the world anymore be abuse they just let whom ever on there to sell and scam people like me. This is a joke and little poor people like my self get walked all over by big companies like this because well we r poor and can't get a attorney. Why these scam artist t get away with it everyday and the agent even ****** wlits a scam and just kinda laughed at me and like I'm sorry there's nothing I can do it's a third party. Well I didn't buy it third party I bought from amazon. My bank charge is from Amazon bought off Amazon app . So why isn't Amazon dealing with it. Someone please help stop this Amazon is getting out of control and knowing they are scamming people and not having any repercussions

      They closed my first account do to suspicious activity a month ago. they asked for the last four numbers on my bank card I sent it they asked for my bank statement I sent it. They did nothing and have done absolutely nothing. Then they closed my daughters and my boyfriends account because they look ve at the same address. I have called messaged and emailed them over ten times and absolutely no one does anything. I have over 300$ on my account from gift cards and gift contrabution on my wedding registry. They have cancelled orders on me and a month later I am still getting changes from Amazon on my bank statement but yet I can't log into my account. The only thing I can think of is they closed it because I was using my virual bank card
