Amazon has disabled my account, without any hard justifications. I called to re-enabled my account, they asked for last 3 items I've bought, on-flied credit card, and an item on the shopping cart. I provided the on file credit card, and the last item I've bough. Since it has been over a year for the other two items, there's no way I can remember that. I can also provide order number, and the exact dollar amount on the last 3 items I've purchased, as my have my credit card statements as proof of purchases. And they would not re-enable my account. Now, I've bought a perpetual software, Taxcut 2021 using my account. They download link and key is only accessible through my account. I have my credit card statement, as proof of purchase, and Amazon is preventing me using something I've legally bought. Why?

Last year I called Amazon requesting to cancel a prime video service I never signed up for , the money was refunded to my account around august of 2021 . Amazon ignore my request and automatically started to charge my account the following month (09/21 ).I realized that I was being charged this year when my account was overdrawn . I called Amazon to dispute the charges on 10/5/22 , they only agreed on refunding 6 months . I dont watch prime videos . I dont understand why Im being charged for a service I requested to cancel over a year ago . Thank you

I received a notification from Amazon stating - "You have a separate account Jus*********gns which was enforced for violating one of our policies. As a result, you may no longer use the Lucky Cosmo Designs Selling account to sell on Amazon.com." I do not own another account on Amazon or anywhere else. I have submitted my tax returns from the last 3 years showing my business is registered and I pay taxes under my name, and only my business name. I am not associated with any other business as they are accusing me of. They are refusing to open my account and telling me what I submitted is not good enough. I am submitting documentation with my Social Security number and registered business name that I have paid taxes under. I do not understand how this is not proof enough that this is my only business that I have and I am not associated with any other business like they are accusing me of. I would like my account to be reactivated.

Hello,

We have reviewed the sellers account and we are unable to reinstate their selling privileges.

We took this action because our records show that this seller lost their Amazon.com selling privileges under another account. Once we remove selling privileges, sellers are not allowed to establish new accounts.

Under the terms of this sellers agreement with Amazon Services, we removed their selling privileges on June 24, 2021. We notified the seller of this decision by email on that day.

Due to the proprietary nature of our business, we do not provide detailed information on how we determine that accounts are related.

Sincerely,
Seller Performance Team Amazon.com

I am rejecting this response because:
- Lucky Cosmo Designs is not linked to any other accounts

- I do not own multiple selling accounts

- I have submitted my tax returns for the past few years which clearly show Lucky Cosmo Designs is owned by and registered with *******************************. I pay taxes to that business and ONLY that business.

- My tax returns show I ONLY own Lucky Cosmo Designs and not any other businesses.

- Not only do I pay taxes under ************************************************************* I also have all of my bills here - rent and utilities (attached)

- Old addresses -

*****************, ** 77640

62-60 ***********

**** Park, ** 11374

- There is no reason why my account should not be able to be reopened. I submitted more than adequate information.

- JustBeDesigns is NOT ASSOCIATED with me

- JustBeDesigns is NOT REGISTERED or listed under my tax returns as my business

Amazon offers items for sale, which it does not assure the items are authentic. Consumers purchase items from amazon which they consider reputable only to find later that the items are not authentic or "knock offs". Amazon return/refund policy says items will be refunded within **** das upon receipt of the item. However, I have an item that is not 15 days out, a knock off item, that has not been refunded. When I spoke to amazon this morning for the second time to a person in a distant land I was told Amazon no longer honored the **** refund. Refunds now take 30 days to process. However, no where in my amazon returns/refunds or consumer account does the information reflect a 30 day return policy. I have screen shots of all conversations with amazon employees, as well as the original tracking information and screen shots of all of the return/refund information confirming the **** day policy.

Hello,

I am ******* from Amazon.com.

I've checked the information with our internal team and confirm that a refund is processed for the order.

A refund was issued to your original payment method on October 15, 2022 for $415.83

In most cases, once a refund has been submitted, the issuing bank will post it to your account within 3-5 business days. This time frame may vary from one financial institution to another.

You can view details of the completed refund on your Amazon.com account:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/css/summary/edit.html?orderID=113-0008520-1064249.

Usually the refunds are issued with in 7 days after the return is received/delivered at the returns center. However, for some items it may take up to 30 days for the return processing to be completed. You can find that information here:

This complaint is in regard to a seller on Amazon. Seller info: OBBOLLYSstore. This seller is not honoring the 1-year warranty. I purchased a recliner on May 8, 2022. The refund period is 30 days. Which is not enough time to break into the chair to test comfortability. I understand that I have exceeded the refund period, but not my 1-year warranty. The seller only replaced the base of the recliner but refuses to replace the back of the recliner under warranty. I've provided photos to them. They keep coming up with excuses and are not honoring the 1-year warranty. I can feel the springs on the base of the chair as I sit and the back feels hard as if I'm reclining on a piece of wood. It turns out that the back part of the chair (the part where you rest your back) all of cushion that's inside the chair has shifted to one side so the other side has not cushion. The seller at Amazon, OBBOLLYstore, a seller at Amazon is not honoring the 1-year warranty so I'm left with a defective recliner.

Amazon Prime changed their format (a new look they called it in an email we have) on August 14th 2022. Before the change we could delete movies we didn't like or watched up near the end just before the credits started, but with the new look we can't. I have complained twice to customer service and both times was told I would receive email telling how this could be resolved. I am still waiting. A pic showing movies we can't even watch because a subscription is needed to rent or buy is attached to this complaint. Time is worth money and Amazon Prime has definitely wasted mine so as reparations I would like them to fix this. I believe by telling your credible service that you'll take action and warn them to heed my request. Sincerely, A concerned customer

An order of 3 products was placed on 10/4/2022. It was noted on the Amazon site that the items would be delivered on 10/4/2022. Even though it was already guaranteed on the site and I have a prime membership, I paid the extra $2.99 to have another guarentee that the order would delivered on 10/4/2022. Amazon separated the dish soap from the order and did not deliver it. Therefore the money paid for the dish soap and the delivery fee should be refunded. Also, the man on the phone who represented Amazon was unprofessional and would not say his name. He had a heavy accent and screamed at me to call back. I asked him nicely to connect me with someone else and he screamed "go back" . I asked nicely for his name and he yelled "go back" several times and then hung up on me. I have lost faith in Amazon.

Dear Better Business Bureau,I've received a product authenticity complaint by mistake but it still affects my account. For the first time Amazon requested an invoice to prove products' authenticity, so I've provide it. I've submitted invoice with the information about ASIN on Amazon and product itself for four or five times, but the Seller Performance Team keeps rejecting it applying on different grounds each time. Invoice corresponds all requirements of Amazon, it contains information about our supplier, about me as a buyer, and of course about the product in question. Moreover, invoice contains date of purchase, invoice number, the bank of payment, and the logo of the supplier. Amazon could find all information about supplier via official website provided on the invoice and reactivate my listing, but rejected. Please, contact Amazon and request to reactivate my listing since I've provided the full pack of information that was inevitable for reactivation of the listing. Moreover, this listing's rate is good! Customers are happy with products received, so this complaint was received definetely by mistake. I ask for your help since I couldn't achieve any results all by myself.I hope that information provided above will be useful for Amazon as well. Best regards!
