      I was told by a ******** Service Agent of ********************** during a chat session that I had been charged for 10 months of Paramount Digital Subscription as well as 12 months for Starz. They have refused to issue that refund I was unaware of those charges and the Agent was the original person that made me aware and ensured me that I will receive a refund. It has been 7 days and no refund. I contacted Amazon and they are making notes to my account and having me send in proof of the refund to only tell me I am not going to receive one and that I have already received it. If that was the case why would their employee their representative for their company look into their system and tell me that it I had unauthorized charges for all those months I did not ask for that and that I will be refunded? Well, amazon refuses to honor what the agent said and they are making notes on my account saying I will not get a refund. I want them to be held responsible for what they said and refund me for those months.

      Complaint: 18024049

      I am rejecting this response because: clearly somewhere in your system your representative or agent saw that I had been charged at some point and time those charges and intiated that I was due a refund being that I was not aware.

      Dear Better Business Bureau, I have a selling account on Amazon.com, and recently Amazon deactivated one of my listing because of authenticity complaint. I started a deep review of this ASIN and the product itself. My product quality team always checks all received from supplier items to prevent receiving of damaged items by customers, and of course, they check if the items authentic or not, always. According to the last check-*** notes, items for this ASIN were in good condition and nothing strange wasnt found. I also checked our Feedback, Voice of the Customer, A-to-Z claims, ********** claims, returns, and other similar tubes, but as you can see our store performance was excellent, customers were happy with products received. I didnt find any negative review from our customers, any claims about inauthenticity of the product, so I was shocked that weve received this authenticity complaint. After completing my review, I contacted the Seller Performance Team with information theyd requested before (an invoice). But they almost immediately rejected submission. I tried many times to resolve this issue all by myself, Ive provided all screenshots of my perfect rate, proofs that I didnt receive complaints against this ASIN like ever. But they keep rejecting all my submissions and even stopped to request any kind of information. They didnt even verified invoices that Ive sent them, I contacted my supplier and they confirmed that. I ask you to contact Amazon and request a completely new and fair review for my ASIN B0B5RJP1SH and reinstate it. Sincerely,*************

      Greetings!My concern is regarding the verification process on Amazon. I submitted the original documents - a passport and a credit card statement - to pass verification successfully. However, they were automatically rejected within 1 hour.The Support team is unable to explain the reason for the rejection. They transferred my case to the Internal team. The last one sent me a standard response: "You may not sell on Amazon." (The response is enclosed)My documents follow the requirements of the Amazon Seller Identity Verification Policy. Namely, all documents must be:valid - my passport expiry date is July 27, 2027.be high-quality, in color, and unobstructed - I sent a scan of a passport.supported language - English.My credit card statement:in color.contain the address.have transaction activity.dated within the last 180 days.This is not an exhaustive list of requirements. My documents fully include all points that Amazon requires. I get rejected every time for no reason. I am a reliable seller and would like to continue to sell. The Amazon Team is completely inactive and is not going to do anything to resolve this issue. I kindly ask you to check my documents carefully and accept them.Best regards!

      Greeting from Amazon Services,

      I understand the seller had questions about the status of their account registration and documentation verification.

      To maintain a trusted marketplace for buyers and sellers, we might ask sellers to submit additional documentation verifying their  identity or business before we approve a registration to sell on Amazon.

      The seller can see the registration status at: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hz/approvalrequest/registration

      Our review process is proprietary, and we are unable to disclose specific reasons why their  registration to sell on Amazon was denied.

      Here are help pages for reference:

      I want to restore my Amazon seller account. They blocked me because they found a connection with the blocked account. I recognized the account because I used to be involved in business with the account. I later sold the company and the business and have nothing to do with it. I provided all the necessary documents (Business transfer agreement), but Amazon still refuses to restore my account. Moreover, they themselves said to provide these documents. I also contacted the owner of the account and he provided AFFIDAVIT with notarized signature. And even this they do not accept. It feels like there are people sitting there who don't understand anything at all about the documents we provided them with. I don't know what to write and how to prove that we are not involved in the business we sold. Help me please!

      My account was closed due to me making an A to Z claim for a product that I didn't receive. *** delivered a package that's a high item without signature. When I arrived home, the claimed delivered package was not at my door step. I've informed my Apartment complex of the possible theft and sent emails along with phone calls to Amazon regarding this. Even contacted the seller who advise me to make the A-to-Z claim. My account was closed and my claim was denied as they implicating I'm making fraudulent orders on high items to make claims on while keeping the product. I wasn't warned or even spoke with which is absurd as I return all items I don't want to Amazon big or small. Now I'm out of money because Amazon refuse to stand on there policies as it shows A-to-Z is not truly guaranteed and shows me how Amazon steals from its customers as well. I can't even appeal with my evidence as my account is now closed. I'm unable to even contact the seller because of this. Please help in anyway.

      Complaint: 18023588

      I am rejecting this response because: What is being stated is incorrect. Ive never received a package that was intended for me. Ive followed up with Amazon and the seller regarding it to workout this issue. Instead of working it out, they closed my account and refused further service or refund. I have the proof to show that a claim is being made with the seller or Amazon through *** as the package was not delivered to me. 

      This is from Amazon which is inaccurate. If the package was confirmed delivered, why is there a claim in place? Im giving the run around and no true solution as false information is being shown.

      Hello,

      My name is **** and I am a member of the Amazon Account Services team. I am responding on behalf of your BBB inquiry: 18023588. Ive reviewed your e-mail, and I understand you're concerned about the decision to close your account. While we realize issues with shipping and delivery can occur or you may not be completely satisfied with every item you purchase, the rate at which these incidences were reported to us on your account is considerable.

      While I know you're disappointed with our stance on this matter, I want to assure you the information you received is correct. The decision to close your account is a final one, and we arent able to consider further requests to reinstate it or issue anymore refunds. 

      Additionally, the seller of this order: ARF Tech and the carrier have confirmed that the complete shipment was delivered to you. As a result, a refund will not be issued for the items in that shipment.
      Im sorry for any disappointment and appreciate your understanding.

      Best Regards,

      Yesterday September, 13th I received an email from an automated amazon email address stating that my account has been close due violating term and conditions and that they closed a previous account but this is the only account I've used. I even have a still instated Amazon credit card linked to this account. I emailed for an explanation and i received an email back saying the same thing. I've been an amazon user for years and this is completely messed up and wrong. I've spent so much money on amazon in the time i've had the account. I've also paid for prime so what happens with that??? My account should never have been closed in the first place.

      Complaint: 18023528

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I never had another account that was closed to violation of any terms from your business. My account was close improperly and unfairly. I also paid for amazon prime which I should be getting some type of refund for since you decided to close my account without proper cause. And if what you say is true then what is the other account  i need proff that I personally owned another account that was close.
