      I ordered a brand new MacBook Air from Amazon and it came open and damaged. I returned the MacBook which was picked up by *** on 06/22. I called Amazon customer service and they verified that they had received the item I returned but they claim MacBooks are subject to a 30 day inspection so I would have to wait till July 23rd for a refund to be initiated. And they refuse to update the status in the Amazon app to show that they have indeed received the item. There is nowhere in their return policy that this is stated. I don't have the luxury of waiting till July 23rd as I need the funds to go to the Apple store to purchase another one to be able to continue doing my work. The customer service provider refused to hear me out and just hung up the phone on me. Now I don't know what to do. I just want my refund as soon as possible.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
