Amazon sold me a Dyson Dream stick that was damaged/didn't work. I wrote them and they advised me that the Asurion warranty I purchased with the item would repair the item or replace it. I sent the item twice it was never fixed if anything came back worst. I wrote Amazon which states they stand by behind their product and would be getting back to me and they never did.Business Response

I returned a pair of UA pants to kohls as instructed. I received my refund and then after received an email from Amazon threatening to recharge me for the item since it wasnt returned, I immediately contacted Amazon and was apologized to and was told they did have them this was all an error on their part and I would not be charged, not to worry. I asked them to fix my account to reflect what they said, that said they would. When they didnt, I contacted them back again and was told the same thing. Then yesterday I was charged for the item, again contacted them, was told not to worry this was all their fault and I would get my money back. Ive been thru this before, they just continue to lie! They had no business charging me for something they have had in their possession for weeks, its all a scam and Im not going to be scammed anymore by them! I want my money back immediately, a sincere apology, and compensation for what they have done to me! I should not have to continue to waste my time because they think its ok to scam people!!Business Response

I am submitting this complaint regarding Amazons refusal to reinstate my products (ASINs: B0CZRYFBHZ, B0CZ3XGCM2, B0DNMJY8PN, B0DHVX19X4, B0CSDQXHZJ, B0CKC11Q8L, B0DHVTLBC4, B0DNMKYZ5L, B0CSDQBYDB), despite full corrective actions taken in response to labeling violations.Our products were removed due to unsubstantiated organic claims on packaging. Upon notification, we promptly:Removed all organic claims from packaging and listings. I attached the photos of the new packaging for one of the products in question.Ensured full compliance with *** and *** labeling rules The product itself was unchangedonly misleading claims were removed. Nevertheless, Amazon insists we create a new listing, despite the fact that the product remains identical.I respectfully disagree with this position.Product identity is determined by the actual product's composition and function, not merely by packaging claims. If only misleading labels are removed and the product itself stays the same, it remains the same product legally. Therefore, there is no need to create a separate listing for the same product.Under the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act (FPLA), removing false claims ensures compliance and should not require new listings. Federal law encourages accurate labeling corrections rather than punishing them by requiring entirely new market entries.Our removal of false organic claims represents compliance with federal consumer protection requirements. Federal law favors corrective action over market penalties. Amazon's requirement for a new listing for the same product after good-faith compliance efforts penalizes regulatory compliance and contradicts established FTC policy.When the product remains the same, requiring a new listing is excessive and disproportionate to the violation.Requiring a new listing would confuse loyal customers and undermine existing brand recognition. It creates unnecessary barriers without offering consumer benefits or regulatory justification.Business Response

Greetings from Amazon.com,
I understand that you're concerned about your ASINs B0CZRYFBHZ, B0CZ3XGCM2, B0DNMJY8PN, B0DHVX19X4, B0CSDQXHZJ, B0CKC11Q8L, B0DHVTLBC4, B0DNMKYZ5L, B0CSDQBYDB having been removed due to unsubstantiated organic claims on packaging. .
Upon checking in our internal system for the reason why the aforementioned ASINs were blocked, we can see that this is actually due to them being similar to other ASINs which are part of the list which are prohibited from sale.
Thank you for your understanding.Initial Complaint

while I was about to pay my husband credit card payment I notice a transaction on 05/17/2025 in the amount of ***** so I looked on my Amazon account to see what it was that I purchased because they have been trying to claim a lot of transaction that I never did so I ended up getting a refund but there was no transaction on that day so I reached out to them and just got an email stated that after the investigation it showed no unauthorized transaction so I reached out to them asking if there's a transaction I made it would be on my Amazon account and I would have gotten a confirmation of the purchase and an email when the item will be delivered but there wasn't so she just told me that they see where the transaction coming from so I asked her where but she's said it's against there policy but if I can give her a name then she could so I gave her my name and my husband name and both of my email address but no match so she wanted me to name all my relatives that might have access to the card I told her there's was no names because other than my two sisters that resides in ******* where I am also the others lives in ***. California Rockford so to shut her up I gave her ten names of family members even though none would have had access to my card and as far as my two sisters one has a home care nurse and the other lived to far to travel but none of the names match so I reached out to the credit card company and file a claim dispute I even asked what was the item that was purchase she wouldn't say so since BBB has helped me out so many times and have gotten results in a timely manner who knows they might can find out so I had to cancel my card at the worse possible time I'm not sure of how to track it but I wrote down the info that's on my credit cardBusiness Response

Hello *******,
I am ****** 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.
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. I understand this has been a frustrating experience, and I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.
After investigating the transaction in question, I was able to locate the charge on another customer's account. However, due to legal and privacy concerns, I am unable to share any additional details about that transaction or the other customer's account.
If you still do not recognize or authorize this $59.99 charge from 05/17/2025, I recommend that you contact your credit card company to dispute the charge. They will be able to further investigate the transaction and provide you with more information.
To help prevent any additional unauthorized charges, I also suggest asking your credit card issuer about the possibility of having your card reissued with a new number. This will ensure your account information is secure going forward.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I'm here to help in any way I can.
Thank you for your understanding. Have a great day!

Greetings!I am writing to file a complaint regarding the unjustified suspension of my Amazon selling ********** account was created legally under a US-registered company, for which I am the sole and rightful beneficial owner. The account was newly registered and had not conducted any sales activity prior to its deactivation. I have never held any other Amazon seller account under my name, nor have I allowed any third parties to access or manage my account. All the personal and corporate information provided is 100% unique, valid, and used exclusively for this account. Despite multiple attempts to clarify and resolve the situation through the standard appeals process, I have received no meaningful response from Amazon. The complete lack of communication, transparency, and due process is deeply troubling, especially for a legitimate seller who has demonstrated a commitment to compliance and fair business practices. It is also critical to note that the deactivation took place shortly after I completed the video verification, which I was forced to do from abroad due to circumstances beyond my control. At the time, I was in the process of relocating from ******* to ***************** due to the ongoing war. The verification request came unexpectedly early, and I did my best to comply in good faith.I have permanently moved to **********, where I currently reside and operate my business. I have provided extensive supporting documentation, including my passport, utility bill confirming US residency, bank statement demonstrating payroll and operations, and the certificate of incorporation for the company.Amazon's actions in this case are discriminatory and violate the rights of a legitimate business owner. There has been no evidence presented, no clear reason for the deactivation, and no regard for the substantial documentation submitted.I request a full reinstatement of my account and a formal explanation for the wrongful suspension.Sincerely,******** ******Business Response

Order # ***-5840359-9030634 On 05/26/25 we learned the Garvee Log Splitter purchased from Amazon did not work. Upon contacting Amazon ***************** they only offered full refund and return or partial and keep the broken item. We chose to have full refund and return. We were clear that the item would require boxing by the Amazon Logistics as the delivering agent destroyed the items box and styrofoam packing. The Amazon Agent confirmed the request would include pick up with packaging required. We verified multiple times the agent understood packaging was require. Amazon Logistics arrives apx 1130 on May 29 and declined to pick up without item being in a box. Driver stated call back and **************** will arrange the correct pick up with packaging. 5 Amazon chat agents passed on to another agent without responding. Attempting to call resulted in an agent refusing to listen or acknowledging their delivery agent destroying original packaging, Amazon Logistics stating correct pickup would bring packaging.Customer Answer

Greetings!I am writing to file a formal complaint concerning the suspension of my Amazon seller account on May 16, 2025, and the subsequent denial of my right to appeal or receive further clarification.I fully understand Amazons commitment to maintaining the integrity of its marketplace. However, in this case, I believe a serious procedural oversight has occurred. I am a law-abiding seller who registered a new account in full compliance with Amazons Terms of Service. I had not listed any products, conducted any sales, or engaged in any activity that could possibly trigger such a decision.What is most concerning is that:1. Amazon has permanently deactivated my account without providing any specific reason or indication of which policy or rule was allegedly violated.2. I was explicitly informed that no further appeals would be accepted and that the decision is final, despite my legitimate request for a review and supporting documentation.3. My initial appeal was rejected without a direct response to the evidence I provided, which included notarized proof of identity, legal residency, verified business information, and a clear explanation of IP address history with supporting context.This approach undermines the principle of fairness and due process. Amazon is a global marketplace, and sellers should have a reasonable opportunity to clarify misunderstandings, especially when there is no evidence of wrongdoing. Unilaterally ending communication and denying appeal rights to compliant, first-time sellers sets a concerning ************ a Ukrainian citizen and sole operator of the account, I request that Amazon reactivate my account.If this matter cannot be resolved internally, I will be forced to escalate the issue further, including filing a complaint with consumer protection agencies and considering legal options available for businesses operating in the ************************, Attorney General and ************ regards!Business Response

I sent back returns on the 19th, I requested all refunds go back on my original payment method to my credit card. You can see this posted in the invoice that the refunds are to go to my original card. Amazon took it upon theirselves to put all $540 on a gift card against my request. Now they are telling me they cant fix it. I do not want my money in a gift card because I am absolutely done with giving Amazon my money. Theh stole that money by putting it on a gift card against my request so that I could o my use it for Amazon purchases. I need that money in my bank account.Business Response

Complaint: ********I'm rejecting this response, because it does not provide a specific answer to initial question, i.e. the reason why the products were not delivered, and what steps Amazon is taking to resolve the matter.Postal tracking shows that **** never received the merchandise, which indicates that Amazon is responsible for losing it.
