      I returned two items, a controller, and a seat cushion, with the Amazon-provided return shipping label but have not been refunded. According to tracking number 1ZY082799083805074, both items were delivered to their warehouse over two months ago, on April 20. I have contacted customer service regarding this issue, but theyve been unhelpful. The reference number for this transaction was D4hmwh xMRRMA. I want BBB to serve as a neutral mediator and help me resolve this issue. Please issue my refund of $357.57 to my original payment method. I have attached the return acknowledgment email along with the return label for your reference. I appreciate your cooperation.

      Hello *******, 

      I am Raman from Amazon.com. I am writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I have provided the BBB with a copy of this message. 

      I am sorry to hear of your concern on the refund on return. I have reviewed the return processing notes and the earlier response, we will not be able to issue any refunds at this time. 

      We have not received the correct items needed for a refund to be issued. Amazon does not store items mistakenly sent to us and instead donates, or recycles them, when appropriate and possible. 

      If you accidentally sent the wrong item to Amazon, please contact **************** as soon as possible. ********************** cannot guarantee your item will be found and returned, and no compensation is provided for incorrect items sent to Amazon.

      I realize you're upset we've been unable to address your concerns to your satisfaction. However, we'll not be able to offer any additional insight or action on these matters, and any further inquiries on this matter will not receive a response.

      We appreciate your business and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future.

      Regards, 
      Raman R.

      Complaint: 17492198

      I am rejecting this response because: Even though they have my contact information, they have never contacted me about a supposed wrong return. They did not send me what was supposedly sent to them, which helps their arguments. They did not even send me a picture of the product or the package. There could have been a mix-up where multiple people handled the package, such as a UPS clerk, a driver, or a warehouse worker. This is one of the problems with processing mail returns: A variety of people handle them.  I won't be shopping here any longer since I'm assumed to be dishonest.

      Sincerely,

      ***************************

      I want to restore my seller account. Amazon suspected me of selling inauthentic products and blocked my account. The invoices I sent were not accepted. Then I wrote an appeal and Amz asked for an invoice from the new vendor, which I did. This is a fairly well-known and large European supplier. However, amz did not accept their invoices either without explanation. I want my situation to be referred to a higher department. I did everything they asked but the account is still suspended

      I just recently started selling on Amazon and my account was blocked. The reason for the blocking is that my orders were being sent by other sellers. That is, customers were buying from me, but receiving orders from other sellers. This is not the way to do it. I acknowledged this violation and provided an appeal with detailed steps to prevent this from happening in the future. I was forced to trade this way because I did not have good start-up capital to buy goods from suppliers, rent a warehouse and store goods there. I regret that I violated policies so rudely at the start. I am asking Amazon to give me one last chance. I am willing to sell through their consignment system. In that case, there is a 100% chance that such a mistake will not happen again.

      Hello,

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

      Under the terms of this sellers agreement with Amazon Services, we removed their selling privileges and placed a temporary hold on any funds in their seller account on May 5, 2022. We notified the seller of this decision by email on that day. 

      We took these actions because this seller did not meet our performance targets. 

      Amazon places a high importance on maintaining the trust of our millions of satisfied buyers and we have established targets for performance rates. 

      These targets are published on our Seller Performance Measurement page in seller help (http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_rel_topic?ie=UTF8&nod...). Amazon may remove the selling privileges of any seller that fails to meet these targets.


      Sincerely,

      Amazon.com
