I ordered a treadmill under my husband's amazon account and it arrived broken. We contacted Amazon to fix this and they will only allow a refund and then told us we would have to repurchase the item. The item is now a higher price. This seems somewhat like a scam to get us to spend more money when the item arrived broken. The item was ordered on 10/11/2022 and the order number is 111-2821884-1251457.

On 10/15/22, Amazon sent me an email stating they have closed my account of 16 years due to another account that they claim was linked to my account, was previously closed due to violating the terms of our Conditions of Use agreement. I have never had any another account. I appealed their decision, but their automated response was no help. I replied and advised them of being in a data breach and that is possibly how another account was made but only received a duplicate message saying the same thing. After some research, I learned their reason stated is untrue but based on previous returns. While my account has had several refunds, either through extenuating circumstance and during Covid lock downs, I had shipped them back with the correct labels and procedures. The most recent return was for a defective product. Their terms do not specify a specific number of returns that would cause a violation. I have been a loyal customer for many years and to be banned without providing any evidence and no possibility of a resolution nor any opportunity to open a new account based on unclear terms is unacceptable. I want my account restored as I purchase items there all the time.

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 towards the refund of Apple iPhone XR, ** Version, 64GB, Red - Unlocked.

I've checked and see that there are two return labels created for this item, one on September 3, 2022 and the other on September 13, 2022.

The *** tracking number for the return label created on September 3, 2022 is 1Z55AY222600041315 and it shows there is a lost package investigation opened.

The *** tracking number for the return label created on September 13, 2022 is 1ZR7Y0122605414682 and it shows the package was returned and delivered in *******, ** **.

It looks like our customer service representative misunderstood and informed that the package was delivered back to us when it was actually marked delivered in *******, ** **.

I'm sorry, we haven't receive this package. Since we didn't receive the item at our ************** we're unable to issue a refund or assist further. Please work with the carrier to locate the package and return it to us.

On October 12, 2022 I ordered a 65 inch ** on Amazon for my sister. The ** arrived on 10/16/22. Once the box was open, the bag over the tv was wrinkled as if the was repackaged. Once the ** was plugged in, the screen was cracked in multiple places.The Amazon order ID is # *******************. The shipping address was: ********************************************************************************************* ***** shipping information is below:Shipped with ***** Tracking ID: ************ Konka 65-Inch Class Q7 Pro Series 4K Quantum Dot QLED Smart ** with Android ** and Voice Remote (65Q75A, 2020 Model)On 10/16/22 @ 4:31 EST, I called and spoken to an Amazon representative. The representative was not able to assist much and told me she would need to contact the seller and wait 1-2 weeks for a response. I explained that holding a $422 payment & waiting 2 weeks wasnt acceptable. I requested a credit & pick-up so that I could re-order a functioning **. She could not help so I asked to speak to a supervisor. Amazon supervisor, ******, informed there was nothing more she could do about getting me a credit and pick-up and that I would have to wait to see what the third party vendor says. She said there was no option except to contact the seller and hope for the best. I asked to speak to the manager, she refuse stating there was no way to transfer to a manager. I asked what was the rationale or logic for that, she said she doesnt know what the logic is.I asked if the seller does not reply, what are the next steps. She said then they could do the refund. I asked why they could not escalate the issue to a manager and give me the credit now. She told me there is no way to refund or credit me in the system. I told her I would need to file a complaint with details and asked her the name of the rep I spoken to before her. She said she didnt know. I asked her to get it from the account notes. She said there were no account notes. She was not professional or truthful with that statement.

MY Amazon Business ID: *************. Amazon sent me an email offering me 50% off my first purchase if I opened a business account. I did and for over 2 weeks now have been trying to get the offer they promised me. I explained it via chat, all they did was transfer me back and forth with no resolution. So I called in to talk to someone and had to explain the problem again to them. They put on me on hold for awhile and finally came back to say they could not help me and that it had to be sent to another **** who is only reachable by email and that she would explain everything to them and they would resolve the issue for me. I finally got an email from that **** without any resolution and asking me to EXPLAIN ONCE AGAIN what the problem is!!! This is absolutely ridiculous. The code they sent me was SMB50 for 50% off any physical good sold and shipped by amazon, I have the email, I have have terms, the item in my cart qualifies -

Hello *******,

Thank you for writing back to us.

"This is an invitation-only offer." in the terms and conditions; the email you received with the offer is the invitation.

The promotional offers are automatically applied to eligible accounts. If the code couldn't be applied successfully then that account is not eligible or doesn't satisfy at least one of the terms and conditions.

Regarding the Business Account registration; Even if you have an Amazon.com account using that email address, you can still register a business account with the same email address and covert it to Amazon Business account.

For that, after signing in to your Amazon.com account using that email address, you can hover over the drop down menu and you will see "Register for a Business Account";

Once you provide the email address on the registration page, you will see "This email is already being used for an Amazon account. Would you like to convert it to an Amazon Business account?".

You have the option to convert your existing account to an Amazon Business account.

Or, if you would like to keep your personal and business accounts separate, you can change the email address for your existing account. Heres how to change your email address:

Go to Login & Security
Select Edit and follow the instructions to enter and verify the new email address.

When the new email for your account is verified, youll be able to use your preferred email to create an Amazon Business account.

If you have any further questions regarding the registration and the promotional offer, you directly contact our Amazon Business team using [email protected] email address.

We hope to see you again soon.

I am rejecting this response because:

I am simply shocked by this reply. So in order to accept this offer, I have to change my email from my personal amazon to a business account, then create a new email for my amazon personal account? are you really serious? so in Amazon's mind my business is identified only by it's email address and not by its name? wow......your email offer does not say anything ANYWHERE about having to convert my personal account to a business account, and I can promise you that if I owed amazon money and I said I'm not paying you because you sent the bill to a different email address -which was is owned by my company but is not the one you chose to use- Amazon would not accept that answer at all.

I do not accept this response and do not wish to communicate further with this business. I am requesting that text of this complaint and amazon's absurd response to it be be posted on the BBB site to warn other consumers.

Please note this complaint as unresolved and that I do not accept the businesses answer.

I have been unable despite calling and looking for a discontinuation route to get Amazon to quit charging me for Audible. I have complained every couple of weeks and tried to politely resolve issue. They just keep charging me monthly and I have never used the service. They owe me 3 months worth at ***** each. Also, despite trying to get them to refund me my money after I was notified by Amazon in an email on 6/28/2022. Email says they will refund me in 2-3 days. The stethoscope was approx 69.00$. They just keep ignoring me despite me sending proof on a regular basis. I finally have closed my account hoping they would stop charging **** have attached my emails from Amazon and I just don't believe they keep ignoring me and won't give me my money. 69.00+45.00 for stethoscope and Audible that I am not subscribed to come to 114.00$$

Hello *****,

Thank you for writing back to us.

In the complaint you mentioned that only 2 pairs weren't refunded and as per the order refund history I see that the 2 pairs were already refunded on September 9, 2022 and September 29, 2022 in the amounts of $21.73 and $22.72 respectively.

The two pairs that were not refunded are Obtaom Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes (White US8) and Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** Washed and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes?White US08. Also the screenshot you included shows these two pairs and these are only items from the order that aren't refunded. Hence, I've refunded $44.46 these two pairs on October 17, 2022
With the refund I've issued on October 17, 2022 all the items from the order are refunded making the refund amount equal to the order value of $219.15.

Here's the breakdown of the refunds issued towards the 4 sneakers:

Friday, September 9, 2022 at 12:20 PM (PDT) $21.73 Obtaom Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** Washed and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes (White ***** Washed,US7)

Thursday, September 29, 2022 at 3:56 AM (PDT) $22.72 Obtaom Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes (White US07)

Monday, October 17, 2022 at 11:50 PM (PDT) $44.46 Obtaom Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes (White US8)
Women's Play Fashion Sneaker White ***** Washed and Leopard Canvas Slip on Shoes?White US08
I request you to review your MasterCard statement to find these refunds.
If in case you are referring to different sneakers that belong to a different order number, please revert to this email with the order id and the names of the sneakers. I will investigate and take appropriate action.

I am an author who published 4 books on Amazon KDP. Yesterday (October 15, 2022), I received two emails asking me to provide proof of copyright ownership for one of my books, which I did within two hours from receiving the emails. I believe those emails were sent in error, as I produce all the content of my books, except for the book covers. I was able to provide an evidence that the book cover was licensed and the copyrights for it properly transferred to me. I have not heard back from Amazon regarding my responses. Today, October 16, 2022, Amazon KDP simply terminated my account without any explanation. No email was sent to provide the reasoning behind it and what I had to do for my account to be reinstated. I would like Amazon to reinstate my account as soon as possible, since I was able to provide all the information regarding the copyright.

I am rejecting this response because: While my Amazon KDP account has been reinstated, I still do not have access to the sales report. I do have access to the Bookshelf and Marketing tabs, but not the Reports tab. Please give me access to sales reports as well. See the attached document for a reference.

Sincerely,
