10/31/2022 I wrote into Amazon chat about a billing issue I noticed on my Amazon **** card and was told by an agent *************** that I would be refunded $49 back to my card in 3-5 days. I never got a confirmation email so I called later in the day. I was transferred time and time again, with some agents saying yes I would get a refund and they just needed to transfer me to someone else to process it, and then those agents would say they couldn't. I spent over 4 hours on the phone with some of the worst agents I've had to deal with- I was hung up on, was accused of trying to scam amazon, accused of lying so I emailed proof when they tried to argue, I was hung up on by a SUPERVISOR who refused to transfer me to his supervisor after promising me he would. I would first like the call to be listened to and that agent to have action taken against him- hanging up after I specifically ask him not to and to transfer me is the rudest thing ever, especially after knowing I've been on the phone for 4 hours. Second I would like the refund that was supposedly already processed to my card (which was a lie) to be honored. You should not have 3 agents in a few hours all tell me yes I could get a refund and to transfer me only for 4 of those people to tell me they can't/ That's almost a 50/50 split of agents promising different things, and it's a lot of misinformation by a lot of agents in a short time. This wasn't one time an agent gave the wrong info. On top of that, I'd appreciate a credit for my time. I have remained quite calm despite how stressful this has been. I don't get paid to do this and yet I treat these people with more respect than they treat me at their job. I've wasted so much of my time because of the rudeness and misinformation. Amazon has definitely been slacking on the customer service lately, especially regarding my last few issues.Business Response

Hello,
I am *************;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 apologize for the bad experience you had with our support. This is definitely not the experience we ever want you to have with us. I've shared the details with the team for necessary action. I understand your concern regarding the $49 charge on your card.
I've checked on it and I can see you have placed multiple orders on Oct 5. On all the orders, you have selected gift card balance as the default option for the payment however the available balance was insufficient to complete the purchases. Hence the system charged your **** card for $49.00 (required balance to complete the purchase).
We haven't received any extra payment on your order. You are charged only for the amount required for the items you have purchased. I understand this information should have been checked by the agents who promised the refund however it wasn't done and I sincerely apologize for that. I've raised a feedback with the concern team to make sure the associates are coached to avoid this miscommunication happening again in future.
I'd like to assure you again that you are not charged anything extra. We have received the payment only for the items you have purchased from your card and charged you available gift card balance to complete the order for other items.
You may view the gift card activity on your account through this link.

If you never want to be charged on that card for the purchase, I request you to please return that order for a refund on your account. Steps included in this link to return any order.

I am rejecting this response because: having to spend four hours on the phone with over eight different agents who are all misinformed and promised things they do not have the right to promise is unacceptable. I shouldnt have to face being hung up on, being lied to, being accused of lying, being accused of everything else, having a manager refused to transfer me to the supervisor they promised to transfer me to, then being hung up on again. Not only is the lack of correct information or desire to find the correct information a problem, but the way that many of your agents treat customers is a problem. It goes way more than reviewing this. I have never been spoken to like the way that I was spoken to on the phone the other day. I was beyond patient and kept asking for someone to solve it. It shouldnt take running to the BBB to get accurate information. I am a ****** at the way Amazon has been treating me, a paying prime customer, in the last multiple issues involving my orders, which have been so difficult and hard to resolve with rude agents. Sending one message saying youre so sorry does not fix everything that I went through and everything that I had to experience because of Amazons customer service.

Hello *****,
I'************* 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 and I understand that you are concerned about the unexpected charges towards Amazon digital purchases. I'm sorry about any inconvenience this may have caused.
Using the Charge ID you provided in the complaint, I was able to identify that they charges are from the HallMark Movies Now prime video channel subscription.
I've forwarded this complaint to our digital specialists and on November 2, 2022 they have cancelled this subscription. They have also refunded 9 x $5.99 charges to the original payment method the amount was charged.
These refunds were issued on November 2, 2022 and must have already been processed. Please review your MasterCard statement to find these refunds.
I hope this helps. We hope to see you again soon.Regards,

I've been experiencing overall poor customer service at **********************. I purchase a lot of items. Within the last month I've had to return more items than I ever had in a small period of time due to receiving defective merchandise. I have to call customer service to resolve the issue-it used to be simple to process the return online, print a label, and have *** pick up the next day. Now, certain items do not allow to print a label or no pick up. When I call, I first have to go through a screening process as I did today. Every time I call, the first agent that picks up to verify my details-and I've been customer of ******************** for a lonnnng time, I used to be a Prime customer until the service went downhill-they're always unable to verify my information to assist initially. They always transfer me to another agent. Today, I experienced the same thing. I received a defective product, order # 112-0132264-7527414-Wireless earbuds. I purchased them on 9/25/22, they started off working perfectly, now it takes a long time to charge them up. It used to take within 1 hour to charge up to 100%. I plugged them into a wall with several different *** plugs-they won't charge at all with the wall outlet, most smart tools charge faster with a wall outlet than a computer *** charge. Today, I connected the *** to the computer at 7am, it is now 11:56 am and the charged moved from 33% to 34% (it didn't move at all with the wall outlet, I left it plugged in all day yesterday). It should move from 33% to 100% in less than 1 hour, which is what it did when I first purchased it. I didn't notice the power percentage moving down and down until last week. There has been no damage to the earbuds or the charger. This is getting very annoying having to call regarding defective items. Each time I have to call and go through the same thing, not being able to get my account verified with initial contact, then having to be transferred. Sometimes I have to call back. **************** has gone downhill!!!Business Response

Hello ******,
I'************* 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 and I understand that you are concerned about the return process.
I've checked the order you mentioned and I see that the order is placed from an Amazon.com account which isn't associated with the email address mentioned in the complaint. Due to account security reasons, We only provide information and make changes when the request comes from the e-mail address associated with the account.
However, I can provide the below generic information regarding this particular return; usually if the item is still within 30 day return window there is no requirement for our customers to contact our customer service team. They can directly request the return/replace by signing in to their Amazon.com account. However, once the 30 day return window is passed, the return labels need to be requested by our customer service team because the return requests are the 30 day return window are an exception and are handled as case to case basis.
When you contact our customer service you need to first verify the ownership account. That is why you were asked to confirm the details of your account. This helps to ensure the integrity of your account.
Regarding the return of the Wireless Earbud from the order you mentioned; please write to us from the account from which the order is placed.
Or you can directly contact our customer service after sign in to that account so that they can offer the return options when you online with them.
Here's a link to our Contact Us page:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/contact-us/general-questions.html
Regarding the issues with the products; since we are only the retailer, it is not possible for us to test the product that we ship. We ship them as they are received from the manufacturer/vendor. However, we have a 30 day return policy and customers can avail free returns for the products which are defective/damaged/incorrect/incomplete with this 30 day return window.Regards,

Hello ******,
I'************* from Amazon.com. I'm writing in response to additional information received on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I've provided the BBB with a copy of this message.
I've checked the order of the Wireless Earbud, Sport Bluetooth 5.1 Headphones and see that the return window expired on October 26, 2022. Since you reported the issue just within a week after the return window expired, we can make exception and provide you with a return label.
Hence, please let us know if you'd prefer a *** Drop Off label or a *** Pick up for the return and also if you'd like the refund to be issued to the original payment method used or to your Amazon account's gift card balance.
Please reply to this email directly with your preferences.

Complaint: 18338413
I am rejecting this response because: I appreciate your allowing me to return this item post the expiration time period. I could've called customer service and I'm sure they would've accommodated for the matter, just as you have-and I do appreciate that. I'm more concerned about the fact that this has been ongoing with many of your items. My significant other resolved the issue with this device. He let me know that the wiring on the device was faulty. This was bought brand new from Amazon, but yet the wiring was not connecting in order for the earbuds to be charged. We simply purchased another cord for the device. Obviously I bought the device brand new in order to use it for long term, not to go through the hassle of returns. I'm not sure what Amazon can do to resolve this issue which is why I contacted the BBB. Items are advertised as one thing, but then when the customer receives the item-it's either faulty (like the earbuds with the bad wire), used but sold as brand new, items that need to be assembled do not come with the proper components, clothes being advertised to look one way on the website and are totally different-looking when received-cheap. Actually, I'm sitting in an office chair that I purchased from Amazon earlier this year. I had to assemble it, only to get to the last 2 screws that connect the back of the chair to the seat and the chair was manufactured wrong-the s**** holes don't align with the base. I wasn't going to disassemble the chair after having spent time and effort putting it all together, so I left it as is. Each time something like this occurs I have to call customer service to resolve it. When I call customer service, first the initial recording asks for my account details, then I get connected to one department that always has a problem finding my account details, I'm questioned over and over having to provide my account details only for the representative to say they can't find my account (and I'm a long-time customer used to be a ********************** customer until ********************** started going downhill with service), then I'm finally connected to a department that asks for my account details again. It's already annoying receiving bad products, then having to go through this over and over again, something needs to be done, more than my returning this product. I'm an ongoing consumer of Amazon and I'd like to see them do better! What can be done to make things better for your long time customers.

I have prime and only use prime shipping. My orders were put on the slower amazon day shipping. I started a chat to find out why. I was ignored. Several minutes of silence and I ask them to stop doing other chats and get me a supervisor. I was denied. For the next 25 minutes i demanded a supervisor. Then I see that this representative started cancelling orders without consent. I placed several calls and they won't do anything but issue credits for items sold by them. That doesn't help me with the orders and items that were cancelled. The second "supervisor" hung up on me. I am considering legal action if this isn't handled better. Call number three, I've had to place a new order for the cancelled items myself and am calling for a refund for the affected items. Refuse to help unless I buy other items sold by you. I expect the employee who cancelled the orders to be fired. This is fraud and just outrageously ridiculous that I am starting my holiday shopping and have to worry about making sure my orders don't disappear. I will keep calling and I will go to the bureau of consumer affairs. This supervisor also refused. I think I'm up to call number 5. I will not stop until I feel like you have genuinely made up for this. Wow, these calls keep getting worse. Truly no customer service. Only contact me in emailBusiness Response

My brother, *****, has not received a correct refund for the computer we returned to Amazon. Because of his disabilities, our family assists with purchases. Our brother, *****, a software engineer, chose a Lenova Flex5 laptop computer. The facts are as follows:1. The computer was purchased on 1/24/22. ***'s account was debited for $1131.91.2. It shipped 1/25/22.3. Shortly before 4/28/22 the screen broke. Because we were within the 90-day return period and because he knows from prior experience a repair would be $200-$300 dollars, ***** returned the item on 4/28/22. 4. Amazon accepted the item without any indication *** would not receive a full refund.5. Since Amazon no longer sells this laptop, and assuming *** would receive a full refund, ***** selected & purchased a different laptop on ***'s behalf.6. On 5/5/22 a refund of only $74.75 was issued to ***'s account.7. On 5/14/22 ***** filed a claim for the remaining balance of $1,057.16. He was told at the time the item should be covered by Amazon's AtoZ Guarantee which provides that a seller cannot charge more than a 15% restocking fee.8. Over the next five months, ********************, ***'s legal guardian, called Amazon at least twice a month to follow up on the claim. Each time she was told it should be covered by the guarantee, and the representative assured her a "claim" would be filed with the next level of customer service and that she should receive an email within 7 days. No email was forthcoming even though test emails proved to have been delivered.9. The last two times ***** called she insisted on speaking to a supervisor. These supervisors repeated the guarantee and assured her she would receive a phone call within 24 hours. Again she was ignored. 10. ***** is on SSI Disability. The disputed amount represents more than half his disposable income after room and board. 11. At this point, *** does not have use of the computer and his bank account has been significantly depleted.Business Response

Order Date: 10/22/2022 Order # ***-7136426-0469818 Item: 6 in 1 Body Machine Cost; $388.99 Tracking ID: **************** Says Delivered: 10/24/2022 at 1:51 PM EST and signed for by ********************** Apartments Delivery Location: *************************************************************************************** This package was delivered to an address other than **********************************************************************, and signed for by an unknown person. I have not received the item and was advised by Amazon to file a police report and, once the report is complete, to call Amazon back during police business hours with the report number. On 10/27/22, the police report was filed with Fairfax County PD and Officer ***************** On 10/31/22, I paid $10 to obtain a copy of the police report to provide to Amazon. I spent 1 hour and 24 minutes on the phone with Amazon to no resolution and was told I had to wait until 12/13/22 before a refund could be processed as Amazon was not able to verify the report as not Pending. In order for me to obtain a copy of the report, it is required to be completed and not in an incomplete status. Officer ****** took photos of the unsecured area where Amazon states the package was delivered to include with the report. Upon moving to this address in June 2021, I filed a complaint about the delivery of packages, and there was never resolved. I stopped having packages delivered to my residential address and opted for Fissure and Amazon Locker however, Amazon did not permit this item to be delivered to Fissure. Waiting until December 13, 2022 to get a refund is not acceptable as this is an ongoing delivery issue and I followed the guidance of obtaining the police report. I was told by two Amazon reps one of which ************** identified as a supervisor and the highest person in escalations I could speak with. I emailed the police report however Amazon did not want to hold the line for the ***************** to verify the report is complete and left me no other options but 12/13/22.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: Hi I do not understand as your information is incorrect! The police report is complete! It is not in pending status you are not able to get a report unless it is complete. Your response is no different than what I was provided when called and stayed on the phone with Amazon for 1.5 hours. The report is complete! This issue is because of the drivers negligence. The package was delivered to an address other than my address noted for delivery. Even yesterday another package delivered to the hallway by the mailroom. Left unsecured for me to search and find. My address is **** Callcott away the packages are delivered to **************************************************** and left unsecured in a common area. I have detailed instructions to bring my package to my address but that does not happen. You need to fact check Fairfax ************* have completed my report. Ive done everything I was told to do. I left work early to file the report, I took off work to go get the report and paid $10 for it. I financed this order through Affirm and now paying interest that I wont get back on an item not received. I even returned the other items purchased on this order but shipped separately. Dealing with Amazon and deliveries is stressful there is no resolve. I request you do your job if it requires being on hold for an hour to get through to Central Records for Fairfax County to verify the report is Complete I reiterate no where in ******* can you get a copy of a report unless it is completed.

I am rejecting this response because:
What you Amazo is asking me to do is what I did but it was not acceptable to Amazon. I called during business hours and was on the call with Amazon for over an hour. Amazon did not want to hold for the police department to answer at Central Records while their call volume was high. So you are requesting me to do exactly what I've already done. I even asked that Amazon hold until the Central Records answer and was told Amazon cannot do that. Is there a phone number for you? Because this will not get rectified with a **************** number for ********************** as they will not hold for the police to answer. This is why I'm frustrated and warranted the complaint. It's important that I can communicate with you during business hours instead of the nontraditional hours that you are emailing me. This matter needs to be resolved. As the consumer it is not fair because the deliver drivers fail to do their job. This order was NOT delivered to my address. The driver falsified information saying ******** Place signed for it. Who at ******** Place signed for it? ******** Place is the name of my condo community. The office staff does not sign for packages. The driver is negligent as they disregarded the detailed comments as a result I'm inconvenienced. This is just a continued run around.

Hello,
I am *************;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 understand your concern regarding the refund for the missing order. I'm sorry for the hassle.
I see the team have mentioned that they weren't able to connect with the police department to verify the report status due to long hold time on the call with them. I understand you would like us to wait longer on the call to get this done however I'm sorry, our team is able to wait for certain time post that they will need to disconnect and request you to please call us later on that day or any other day.
I request you to please call us again during the working hours, our team will try again to reach out to them to verify the report. If this goes through and it is verified by the officer, our team will take the action and help you further.
If this does not get verified and the case remains the same (not able to connect to police) until 12/13/2022, then as we discussed earlier in our communication, our team will not wait anymore and help you get a refund.
I appreciate your time and patience on this matter.

I am rejecting this response because The steps Amazon is advising me to take are the actions I performed before filing the BBB complaint. Amazon is unwilling to hold the line to connect to the Fairfax County Central Records to verify the report is no longer pending. Amazon emails me during nontraditional hours 1am -5am EST and is not an effective method of communication a resolve. Amazon has not provided a solution to this matter any different from what I did already. Amazon did not follow the delivery instructions nor did a human sign for the package that I paid for but did not receive.

I am a third-party seller on Amazon (Merchant Token AUZK0RXELMFIU) and they have suspended two of my marketplaces (****** and ******) for allegations of owning a separate suspended account, but they are wrong. The account identified in my suspension notice belongs to my son. His name is Remington *************************** and he operates the Amazon storefront QoolRUSH. My son and I live at the same residence; as such we use the same IP address to log in to Seller Central. We have used common devices to log in and have similar names, but our businesses are completely separate. Amazon has asked for supporting documentation to prove I do not own the other account, so *** submitted a notarized affidavit signed by my son stating under penalty of perjury that we have separate accounts, but Amazon has denied it several times. This is a legal document so how is it not sufficient? Guilty by association when we dont have an established business relationship is unjust. Can you help?Business Response
