 Amazon placed my account on hold on July 10 after I placed 1 of my Prime Day orders, they asked me to verify my payment info and I submitted pictures of the gift card I used and also my Drivers license picture, shorty after that they re opened the account. I again placed my order and they put it on hold again and asked me to verify payment info. I sent the gift card pics from before, the debit card picture showing the last 4 digits of my card thats on the account and my drivers license picture again. So far they have not opened my account back and are saying its closed which is not right because I have $107 gift card balance on it.- Business Response- Date: 07/16/2025 Hello,

 I am filing this complaint regarding a recent and unresolved issue with a product I purchased through Amazon from a third-party seller named Gemma ***** I ordered a pair of sunglasses that cost $402.62. When I received the product, it was damaged upon arrival, with a s**** missing and the frame falling apart. I returned the defective product following Amazons return policy and received an email confirming a refund. However, I was only refunded $33.05. Upon reaching out to both the seller and Amazon customer service, I was told that a restocking fee was applied by the seller; which is entirely unacceptable given that the item was received in defective condition. Amazon initially stated they would contact the seller on my behalf. Despite this, I still have not received the remaining refund, and the issue has not been resolved after multiple follow-ups. To make matters worse, I was falsely accused by the seller of having a suspicious purchase history, which I found both offensive and baseless. I have been a loyal Amazon customer and have always followed policies and procedures. I am requesting that Amazon or the seller refund me the full amount of the original purchase and that this matter be resolved immediately. This experience has been incredibly frustrating, and Im disappointed with how poorly it has been handled. I hope the BBB will assist in mediating this issue and help ensure that I receive the full refund I am rightfully owed. Desired Resolution: Full refund of the original purchase price, with no restocking fee applied due to the product being returned in defective condition.- Business Response- Date: 07/15/2025 Hello Cleanae,

 I am rejecting this response because:- Amazon sent a code, and it was invalid. I called business services last night. Three different agents, and informed they could not give me a valid code. If they wanted to have an expiry on the code, they should have messaged me on my Amazon account. There are 2 references to the BBB issue in messages, but no code. The lady I spoke with informed me all new business' usually receive this. It begs the question, "If so, why have I been going through this for nearly a month.

 ordered TP-Link Tri-Band WiFi 7 BE10000 Whole Home Mesh System (Deco BE63)Order # ***-3657105-8865011 on June 17th 2025. Amazon sent me updates saying it was being delivered but it was delayed. I tried to cancel the order, but Amazon wouldn't let me saying something like "its already in transit, but delayed". I ordered a second TP-Link same model and it arrived within 24 hours. I tried to cancel the first order, but again, Amazon wouldn't allow it. Eventually the first order arrived, with obvious rough handling on the outside of the box. I promptly returned it via their returns process. They claimed a refund would be issued July 9th and that they had received it and it was in processing. Now they have pushed out the refund date to July 19th. Something is wrong with Amazon and that package. They have had my money for a month, failed to meet their own stated delivery schedule both coming and going. They need to return my money ($453.63)- Business Response- Date: 07/09/2025 Hello *** *****,

 Upon checking the details of the order, I see that the item has been returned to our return center, usually it takes ***** days for refund to process once returned to our return center.

 I placed an order through Amazon with Prime shipping, which was guaranteed to arrive on June 30. The delivery was delayed to July 4 and was ultimately marked as lost. I never received the item.I contacted Amazon **************** multiple times to request a claim under the A-to-Z Guarantee, but I was denied access to file one. Agents kept saying it wasnt possible, refused to escalate the issue, and in some cases ended the chats without resolution. On the phone, I was only offered a refund and told I had to wait 35 business days. They would not allow me to speak with a supervisor or properly report the issue.Additionally, I was never given a way to contact the seller directly, nor was I provided with the AWB/tracking number to be able to trace the shipment myself. I had no visibility into where my item was or who was responsible. Later, I received a generic email stating that the A-to-Z Guarantee exists, but no further action was taken on my case.I am a paying Prime member, and I feel Amazon failed to fulfill its delivery guarantee, denied me access to protections they promote, and offered no real accountability or transparency.What Im requesting:I am requesting that Amazon:Allow me to file a formal A-to-Z Guarantee claim Provide compensation for the inconvenience and wasted time Issue an official apology or acknowledgment for the poor handling of my case A refund is not enough considering the delay, lack of transparency, and failure to follow their own policies.- Business Response- Date: 07/11/2025 Hello *******,

 My account with ********************** Web Services was hacked and the hackers registered a bunch of scam domain names/websites on my account, which racked up a bunch of fraudulent charges. Since I was hacked, I can no longer access the *** account, which apparently means I cannot contact their support team or get any tech support either without logging in. But I can't login, because I was hacked; so it is an endless loop now of their automated messaging telling me to login to contact support but I need support to help me access my account again since it was hacked.- Business Response- Date: 07/27/2025 Hello ******* *********,

 I have bought an item from Amazon order number 113-9941968-2637860 for ochenta mens cargo shorts orange-a and then I returned it back on 05/14/2025 to kohls amazon return center and the tracking from kohls the item was received by Amazon on 06/1/2025 but today 07/03/2025 Amazon retrocharged me again for the item even though it was returned to them and they received it so I contacted Amazon customer service and they refused to refund me the money that they double charged me ( Retorcharge ) ***** dollars . This is fraud from Amazon charging my card without my authorization and the item was returned back to Amazon so they should not retro charge me again for this item . I am attaching screen shots of the tracking by kohls that shows the item was returned back and received by Amazon on 06/01/2025 .this is fraud by Amazon to charge me for an item I returned back to them- Business Response- Date: 07/07/2025 Hello ***** ********,
 I'm Arun 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 the complaint and understand your concern regarding the amount charged for the returned item from the order# ***-9941968-2637860.
 I apologize for the inconvenience.
 Upon checking, I see that the item which was charged was not in the returned package and that is the reason the system has charged the amount which was already refunded.
 However, in order to resolve this issue for you, I can go ahead and refund the amount through gift card balance as there is no direct refund option to the original payment method used.
 I would request you to confirm and I'll get this resolved.
 I appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter.

 Arun

 I was offered a free support trial for 2 months. I accepted it even though I don't use it. I was billed for the free support $100 a month.

 I purchased a Apple Watch from Amazon back in April of 2025 Under the knowledge that that watch according to Amazon website that watch would be compatible with my IPhone 11 So I purchased it and it was delivered. I spent a day and half trying pairing it and it would not work. I took the watch to ********* only to be advised by them that that would not pair at all. So I returned the watch to An Amazon drop location. In ****** **. I received a confirmation from Amazon that day confirming they received their product back. And was advised by Amazon that I would receive my money back in 14 days to my credit card.(THAT NEVER HAPPENED)I went through my bank to file a dispute to get my money back and yes my bank did refund me the money. However now Amazon is harassing me over charges and claiming I never paid them for products that were purchased by me and paid for. And these so called charges are unrelated to my initial claim.I want the BBB to call or go up to Amazon and request a review of the issue I have and request that Amazon leave me alone.
