    The products are good for the most part. That is if you get them and not dropped off at the wrong address. Yes My Address is clearly marked. Then you have to call customer support and wow that is where it all heads downhill. You get to speak to someone that has no clue how to fix the problem. Then you when you speak to their supervisor you have to wait another week to try and get your product. So you have wasted over 4 hours and they offer you 5 Dollars. My time is worth more than $40.00 an hour so take that $5.00 and shove it. Will spend more and just drive to a store to get the products I want from now on. That will save me time and money. I am done with Amazon B.S.

    I purchased a new Echo Show on their Deal of the Day which also included the purchase of an Echo Dot and a light bulb. The Echo Show didn't work right, so I sent it back, but they sent me a refurbished (without a cord) instead of a new one, and said that it is the way that their computer works. They wouldn't give me a new one, so my only option was for them to reimbursed me instead, but I lost the savings of $108 and got stuck with the Dot and bulb that don't really work as well without the Show. I did send the Dot back, but couldn't send the bulb back because I threw away the box. It was a real hassle having to ship back the Echo Show twice and the Echo Dot once, not to mention the time that it took to deal with those at Amazon. I wrote a review of the product on their website and they said that they wouldn't post it. Not sure why, because it met all of their guidelines.

    I recently signed up to sell on Amazon and had a most horrific experience. After spending hours listing items which said nothing about providing receipts my account was suspended without warning. The claim was inauthenticity of 2 items. This was nearly immediately after making 4 sales which Amazon had no issue collecting the money for. Then they expect and demand I ship the items. However there is no guarantee I will ever see the money even 90 days or more after the sale. The rep who was supposed to be my personal assistant just coaxed me to fill out a bullet response and do exactly as told. Provide invoices from authorized vendors which I do not have. This has caused me great distress.

    I take great pride in selling good used and new items. I have 100% feedback on eBay and have never felt so humiliated and stressed due to the financial situation I am in. Not to mention I am not allowed to contact the customer or cancel the 4 orders. Amazon does not allow inbound calls to seller central and do not call back when requested. Something is terribly wrong with Amazon and there needs to be some sort of intervention. We the people need to be heard!

    Amazon's new choice of shipping items is using their own delivery service (tracking numbers beginning with tba). To date, only 2 orders ever made it to me, out of around 10. Worse than USPS, I didn't think that was possible. I searched to see if this was just in my location, Columbus, however it's not just here. Use any search engine you want about AMZL (Amazon Logistics), problems are rampant!

    Amazon is trying to be one of the big guys without any experience. Hiring subcontractors to make deliveries, what a joke. The "brown" guys and the "red, white, & blue" guys should be smiling ear to ear. AMZL will fail hard and Amazon will lose lots of customers due to their shipping fiascos. I have left Amazon as a customer. Amazon is just trying to corner another market (shipping), without any concern of the poor service they are providing the customers. The almighty dollar, Amazon's dream, just might make Amazon give up its ridiculous idea. The shipping GIANTS didn't do it overnight, leave it to the professionals.

    I have been an Amazon Prime member for about 10 years now and when I first became a member I was so impressed by their fast, professional, helpful and kind customer service. About 99% of the time our packages would arrive on time and in working/good condition. We order A LOT from Amazon, we live far from town so it is much more convenient for us to order online compared to driving 30+ minutes to town. If there ever was an issue with a late package or broken item I could easily email Amazon's customer service and they would fix the issue very fast. If they were at fault they would always make it right by refunding or extending a month of Prime membership, etc. I always had the issue fixed to where I was so happy to still shop at Amazon and give them business.

    I have slowly started noticing that over the past 3 years Amazon's customer service is getting worse and worse. We have been getting late packages about every third item we order. Obviously we understand stuff happens, vehicles have issues and weather conditions, etc but not every third time you order!! And now there is no emailing Amazon, they have either phone call or chat online, which at first seemed like that would be a fine idea. But when you chat with someone they are usually not helpful at all and are difficult to get to understand your issue. I have to explain about 2-3 different times what I am having a problem with. When it was through email it was never this way, it's almost like the people you chat with are trained completely different than the people you would email before.

    Recently we ordered a light switch for the rooms in our house, it's a dimmable switch and it worked great so we ordered 2 more. The 2nd and 3rd switches came together, one was the wrong model (I double checked to make sure we ordered the correct one) and the other one just didn't work/was broken. So we returned both and instead of a refund we wanted replacements. When we got the replacements it was the exact same thing again, one was broken and one was again a different model which is a cheaper model made by the same brand. I was so angry, did they just send us the ones we returned back? I have no idea.

    I did live chat and talked to FOUR different people, they kept passing me to someone else and no one was being helpful. I wanted them to realize how frustrating this was. One customer service agent said, and I quote "there must be something going on with the seller you are buying from, choose a different seller from the other options." Do you want to know who the seller was? Amazon!! I asked them, "The seller is Amazon so what does that mean and how can you fix this?" He told me that they no longer had the item we wanted and we would have to buy from a different seller, which the other sellers were selling the switch for about $15 more than what we had paid. Then the customer service person passed me off to someone else.

    On the FIFTH person I finally found someone nice and helpful, she set up UPS pickup for the broken one and gave us a refund for both and told us to keep the wrong model switch. Which yes that is great but we cannot use the wrong model as it doesn't work for any of our light switches!! I appreciate that she did that but we are still without any switches.

    Now last week we ordered a food scale and when we received it it wasn't working/broken, so we ordered a replacement and when the replacement came guess what? It was broken. I did live chat and they were not very helpful. I was trying to get a replacement one sent but because this was the original replacement sent it was showing as $0 and wasn't letting me get another one. We wanted UPS pick up for the return (which that is one thing I can say Amazon is doing good- offering UPS pickup) as we live far to be dropping packages off that Amazon sent broken. The customer service agent refunded us and gave us a label for UPS drop off. So we wanted a replacement but got a refund, we wanted UPS pick up and got UPS drop off. They can't do anything right!! And paying $119/ year and I am getting crap service and broken items sent again and again.

    I do not plan to renew our membership which is a huge disappointment for us. How are they able to get away with this terrible service? I feel so angry and helpless because how can I change this? If you are on the fence about signing up for Amazon don't do it. Yes they have great perks with music and videos and free shipping but you shouldn't give $ to a company who doesn't care about their customers and if you end up having issues with anything, which you eventually will, good luck getting any help from them even when it's clearly their own fault.

    I contacted Amazon customer service after I noticed some suspicious activity on my account. I had also received some odd emails from Amazon that I had never received before. When I called, a few things happened. I was informed that my account was locked due to those suspicious purchases, but was asked by the representative on the phone to pay over the phone for items I had already paid for. Plus, why am I going to pay again for items I didn't order. When I tried explaining to her that I didn't order the items, she literally called me a LIAR. Are you serious? I have never ever experienced a customer service rep calling me a liar. I asked to be transferred to her supervisor. She snickered and said no, that wasn't a possibility. I asked to be transferred to an account specialist. Again, I was told no. At this point I was so upset, so I asked that she cancel my prime membership. AGAIN she laughed and said that wasn't a possibility. I pay for this service.

    Of course I can cancel. I got nowhere with her or anyone else on Amazon. Luckily my bank is being more than helpful, and from what I was told, this seems to be a common thing with Amazon. It is just sad, because I spend a lot of money with them. I buy almost everything off Amazon. They have lost a good customer. I seriously hope they make some changes. Shame on you Amazon. Hire better representatives!

    Honestly, I had purchased on Amazon before and I never had problems with any of my orders. But recently, I decided to purchase shoes on Amazon and I had the most stressful experience. When I ordered my shoes, I kept tracking it and everything was going well and I liked how Amazon always tells you when your shipment will arrive. On the day my shipment was suppose to arrive, I checked my tracking information and it said it was being sent back to seller with no explanation. When I reached out to the seller he explained to me he didn't know why either and that I'd receive a refund.

    I was very annoyed and confused but I gave Amazon another chance because like I said before, I have had good experiences with Amazon. So I decided to just purchase the same shoes from another seller on Amazon and when I did everything was going well until on the day the shipment was suppose to arrive AGAIN. On this day, I logged on to check my tracking info and it said UPS was unable to deliver my package. I contacted an Amazon Agent and they told me that my address was incomplete and I needed to contact UPS to complete it. Mind you my product was delivered and at a UPS near me. When I contacted UPS to complete my address they told me that it was a huge change of address if I completed it, So UPS told me to contact Amazon to complete the address.

    When I spoke to another Amazon Agent they said they couldn't complete my address either because the carrier had the product. At this point I'm calling UPS and Amazon back and forth to complete my address and no one can do it. Finally UPS told me I could pick it up at the UPS warehouse but I needed an ID. And I couldn't pick it up because I always use a Nickname online shopping. If Amazon could have told me my address was incomplete as soon as I purchased my product, I would not have gone through all of this. That was the most stressful online experience I've ever had. At that point I just canceled my order.

    After making a purchase on Prime day, my package has been delayed/ lost. I contacted Amazon several times and was only told that I would receive it tomorrow, no matter which day it was. They offered a refund, however, the item would now cost 25% more than what I originally paid. I contacted the seller directly and they informed me that they sent the item, twice, to Amazon. I can see on the tracking when Amazon received them. Yet, both have become delayed/missing. After reading other reviews, this appears to be a solid trend. Unethical.

    Amazon does not stand by their prime delivery guarantee and their customer service reps are not helpful. When you Guarantee delivery you count on it or expect them to stand by their guarantee which they do not. They don't even give you a reason for the delay or when you will get the item.

The person I spoke to at Amazon, literally called me a LIAR and said NO money had been removed from my account and that both charges were only pending.

    Chatted with Rochelle about an order I placed. When placing the order it said it would be here by Tuesday and then later the email I got said Wednesday. I hadn’t read the email because I specifically checked out 2 things that would get here to be installed Wednesday morning. One of them is arriving Tuesday like originally said, but the other is not. Rochelle called me a liar and said it never said Tuesday and that I could just wait or get over it. All I wanted was to see if it could be expedited to arrive when it said it would upon ordering. I’ve never had a worse experience with Amazon. Who in their right mind tells the customer they are a liar. I would have ordered different product if it wasn’t going to be here in time.

    I have been an Amazon customer before they started Prime Memberships. I immediately signed up when they started and have consistently been one since 2005. I live in an apartment building in a small town outside of Pittsburgh, PA. It is no high-rise and has only 3 floors - 2 people per floor. The driver does not even enter the building as we have a nice covered mailbox area immediately outside our main entrance with a shelf for boxes. We do not have issues with theft here. There are many buildings in this apartment complex on this street and another. I have received my boxes without issue outside my building for years and year and years. That was while Amazon was using the US Postal Service for deliveries, but that just changed a few months ago. Now they use their own drivers.

    The first time I realized there was a problem was late June when I got an email notifying me that a package was delivered. There was no other information and no picture like sometimes is included, but nothing stated about delivered to anywhere different than my building's front door as usual. So when I got home I noticed that it was not there by my mailbox. I wait a day, I've seen one day difference in the past, but still nothing. I wait another day, still nothing again. The next day I left early to drop off my rent at our apartment office (something I rarely do as that office is closed often). I'm told he has my package for me and there it was.

    To make a long story short, since that day there have been no more deliveries to our doors from Amazon drivers. They insist on dropping them at the office even against our manager's complaints! The office is not always opened and has limited hours 8-4 when he's there. He closes the office when he's showing an apartment. It is closed when he takes a day off, and is never opened on the weekend. It is always closed over the holidays which often include a few days for his vacation. It is not reliable. I work till 4:30 and can occasional arrange to be home early but most times I'm dropping my rent off in a closed drop-box at 7am in the morning.

    The new delivery drivers take all the apartment boxes there and drops everything off. In the beginning our manager signed for a few as a courtesy, but he has stopped that. There are far too many boxes and as he said, "I don't work for Amazon and am not responsible to make sure people get their packages." Despite refusing to sign for the boxes, the drivers sneak in and leave them in an outside office area and even leave them on a bench outside in front of the office.

    Complaints to the overseas customer service are in vain. Despite reinforcing deliver to building doors, I'm now left with a little post it "Sorry we missed you - dropped at office". I am letting my Prime expire and will not renew. Other stores are competitive now and I don't mind going out and keeping my neighbors in a job at the brick and mortar stores. I can order at other stores like Walmart, Target, etc., and have them deliver via USPS and I get deliveries to my door, or even choose the option to go and pick up at the store. A note about the option of lock-boxes ... HA! They're all downtown in the city. Where is the convenience in that to drive out of my way and into the congested city? There are none out my way or I'd consider that.

    Bottom line: Amazon grew big because of its promise of convenience. The ease of shopping from home and having deliveries to your door. If they cannot provide that anymore, it is not the same business as it has always been. I'm not paying Prime membership fees anymore for subpar deliveries. I had something shipped that was marked "delivered" last Thursday. I got home after 5pm Thursday and Friday. The office was closed both days and over the weekend. I will get home today after 5pm as well. Amazon has this item marked "DELIVERED" on my account, but I have yet to receive it because of where they chose to deliver it to. I'm done!

    I have been a Prime member for many years. I use Amazon for most of my shopping needs except groceries. I haven’t really tried that as an option. They offer a lot for the cost of membership. This includes commercial free music, unlimited photo storage (not including video), free movies and TV shows and two day free shipping.

    Also, I have never had a problem returning an item. Their customer service is always helpful including their technical support. They stand by what they have represented online. I had an order that showed to be delayed from the promised date, when I called they gave me five dollars off to use as credit; The package actually got there on the original promise date anyway. They also hold their sellers to the same standards. When I had purchased a mattress and adjustable bed from the website and had a problem they told me to call the distributor company and if I was not satisfied with a solution I was to call them back and let them know. For a very large company they operate like a small business with great customer service.

    While I have been and continue to be a regular Amazon customer, their policies with regards to failed shipments leaves a lot to be desired especially with regards to "Prime Day". I had two packages by their own account were delayed / lost. After tracking this down and spending lots of time on the phone with customer support (and even a follow up call), the only remediation offered was to refund the original purchase price. The items were needed and purchased ON SALE during Prime Day. Now the only choice I am left with is to purchase them again at the non sale price and hope they are delivered. Really crap that a failure to deliver (which happens AFTER Prime day is over) means that Amazon will not make good on the original purchase.

I pay for prime and that's supposed to be guaranteed shipping in two days. So my last package I ordered from them did not come for 2 weeks after it said it would be here.

I explained to her that I won’t be able to return what was never delivered to me and I need to speak with someone else. She said she was the last point of contact and I would have to hang up and call back. I had to hang up and call back, transferred to 3 other people and finally the last one was able to give me an instant refund because he said my package was still at their warehouse and was not assigned a driver. I felt so bad the way they treated me, I broke down in tears. It felt like I did not matter and my Prime membership for 6 years, the purchases I made did not matter to Amazon.

I was told I could send it back for a full refund or take it to the nearest Best Buy. Either way I was told they could not send me another TV at the price I purchased it for on PRIME DAY. So what is the point PRIME DAY???? I don't blame Best Buy because I did not purchase the TV through them. I purchased it through Amazon. Buyer beware!!!!

    My husband and I ordered $1000 worth of furniture from Amazon, all of which was supposed to be delivered within about a week of purchase. The couch, the rug, the baker’s rack, and the pillow cases arrived on time. We decided on a different rug and pillows so we initiated a refund for both of those items. No big deal. We were waiting on the arrival of an accent chair, a coffee table, and an end table. July 10th came and went and apparently our tables were delivered and signed for by someone that doesn’t share our last name. I chatted with a representative and they told me that sometimes UPS drivers accidentally mark packages as being delivered, and to wait until the next day. The next day came and went, still no tables. I chatted again, this time they told me to wait until Saturday the 13th. The chair was also expected on the 13th. Saturday came and went, no tables, and no chair. Hmm.

    My husband called and told the rep he would like a refund for the tables and the woman told him that that would not be possible until the 14th. She informed us the chair was lost and was able to refund us for that, which was a bummer because I really liked that chair. She said they needed to open an investigation with UPS to crack the case of the missing tables and that we’d hear back in 3 days, max, then we’d be able to get a refund or replacement if they were not delivered.

    My husband wanted the refund as soon as possible, and he didn’t even want to deal with the investigation, and the woman was very rude about it. He asked to speak to her supervisor and she refused. So, we waited for the investigation to close. We didn’t hear anything. I called again today and apparently no investigation was opened with UPS so I need to wait ANOTHER 3 days without a refund or replacement so they can ACTUALLY conduct the investigation this time. I will never, EVER buy furniture from Amazon again.

They treat me like an ignorant. It was the most horrible treatment I have ever received. Not only they did not help me solve the issue, but they also wasted my time.

    Purchased an item on Amazon Prime Day. It was delivered but when I opened the box, after I had signed for it and the courier had gone, it contained random items I never ordered that were a fraction of the cost. Upon contacting Amazon they would not replace the item only provide a refund for me to re-purchase. The item had gone back to full price, but they refused to credit the difference. This event was publicised as a bonus for being a Prime member and yet they treat them like this... Shocking. They also implied that as I had signed for the parcel then it must have been correct.

    On Amazon Canada Prime Day. It was offered $5 bonus on $25 reload. They never posted any limit of the maximum benefit on their advertisement. Not even in small bold letters. I reloaded multiple times in the hope I will receive $5 credit each time. Each time on my transaction it was clearly mentioned Qualifying offer. "Prime Day GC Promo" and "$5 promotional credit will be automatically applied to your account within 2 days". However, in reality, I have received only one $5. I have contacted their team and they partially gave me promotional credit but didn't give the full bonus value that I should receive.

    "Deepa: I am really sorry for the misunderstand here, however, the promotional credit can be added one time per customer's account and as you have been given a benefit of doubt, we have already issued a $15 promotional credit to your account, which should not have been added in the first case. *Misunderstanding here." They mentioned the limit of $5 on the terms and conditions but never mentioned on their advertisement not even in small words and misled in the transaction process by giving fake promises of $5 credit on each transaction. Unless you have a hobby and time to read Amazon terms and conditions don't buy from Amazon.ca. They can fool you through their advertisement and transaction process.

    I am a prime member of amazon.in and the services that I got is pathetic. I work as a freelancer for an Amazon store based in USA and my client wanted to buy a laptop for me for work. He wanted to use his card for accounting purpose so I tried to buy it on Amazon since the payment was not authorized from the bank so it declined at 1st time but then my client called into his bank and authorized it and the order went through then Amazon somehow canceled the order. Called Customer service, they said to try again it should work. Again tried, bank declined then client again called and authorized bank for the payment. He cleared it from his bank but Amazon canceled the order again. It happened several times. I called customer service again, someone mentioned that if I have any relative who has prime try from their account as there is a flag on our account and it may take 24 hours to clear it.

    I wanted to use Prime Day offer and I asked my brother to help me with this. And we placed the order successfully but Amazon is not happy with anything and they placed a hold on my brother's account. Asked for the info and we send the info they asked for. Again another mail asked for the statement where address last 4 digits of the account and name is clearly mentioned. I had to ask my client for this and he being so generously sent me the details and we forwarded. Now they asked for tax invoice that has to be sent from his bank. What the hell is this? Am I being a freelancer, how many times I need to reach to my client? All we wanted is to use Prime Day deal and buy a laptop using his account. If you don't accept international card why you didn't write it somewhere? In payment, section writes it clearly that international cards are not accepted. Customer service should have not advised using relatives account for purchase either.

    I am so frustrated with Amazon that I had Amazon pay balance of 10K and I asked them to pay me back. I will use other portals, not Amazon.in. Amazon.com is good but not Amazon.in. My brother's account is still on hold. I am really frustrated with Amazon that I don't want to use them anymore. I have been a regular customer with them, not only me but my family too.

    I recently used Amazon to order a large number of items to build a gaming computer. This was my first time using Amazon to make large purchases. Mainly because their prices were slightly cheaper than Newegg and OutletPC.com. Well, this past week dealing with their overseas-based customer services has been an absolute nightmare. Some packages arrived quickly, but one order was missing a tracking number which resulted in a complaint to 3rd party sell which was never originally their fault. Over my many attempts to call Amazon, I always end up talking to an overseas-based support team who can never find a solution and force me to repeat myself.

    I would request to speak to a USA based customer service and would be simply transferred to another overseas-based rep in the same department. I have many times praised Amazon for their service. Amazon had made no attempt to correct my issues. I will not longer use Amazon for any sort of PC build or high price item if the service is going to be this bad. Buyers would be better off paying just a little bit more to have a chance to have quality customer service in a moment of need. I would be happy to change my review if Amazon would even put a small effort to correct this lack of support to a customer.

    I recently ordered something on a Monday evening that said it was fulfilled by Amazon with a guaranteed delivery on Thursday. This was important because it was something I was taking with me when I leave the country for 3 weeks on Friday. That Wednesday I get an email saying it will be delivered on Friday. WTF? How can they use the word guaranteed legally when it is really we should have it there on Thursday? This presents a real problem because I will be gone for 3 weeks. I would have not ordered it if it did not say fulfilled by Amazon with that delivery guarantee. So it will sit on my doorstep for 3 weeks where anyone can steal it and know I am not home, and possibly rob from my house.

    I called customer service but they said the item was still in a third party's possession and they could not stop the item from being delivered until it was in the post office's possession. They told me to call them back when I found out it was in the post office's possession so they can put in a stop delivery. I may be out of the country then! They should not be able to say guaranteed delivery for anything, ever because they cannot do such. Frustrated, possible ex Amazon Prime member.

    Amazon.com chose to use an alternative billing method for my account. They did not seek my authorization to change the billing credit card. It matters to me greatly, which card is used for certain purchases. They have a way to toggle this "Backup payment method" off for future, but they have taken it into their own hands to complete the unauthorized billing without my knowledge. They used to send me an email notifying me there was a billing problem and I would be able to address it quickly online (my credit card is turned on and off by me for fraud security purposes and sometimes that causes a charge to be denied, if the card was left turned off).

    To make matters worse, If the item has shipped, which it usually will before you find out about this, customer service WILL Not revert the charges back to the correct card. They prefer the customer to send the items back and redo the whole purchase, taking days longer. Mind you, the items weren't due to reach me for 1-2 days. Also, there is no phone number nor a way to call Amazon from within their own website. Despite following links to talk to a human, I was always diverted back to another webpage. I had to obtain the phone number from another outside website.

So, I was expecting the item to be delivered Wednesday, July 17. Upon getting a confirmation I learned that the item would be delivered Thursday, July 18. Just an hour ago, I received an email telling me that the item will arrive Friday, July 19.

    I contacted Customer by phone and got no satisfaction. I was told that the cup is sold by Modern Outdoor Life and Amazon has no control over their shipping. The Shipping details says, "One-Day Shipping." So, allowing for one day shipping, the item should ship Tuesday, July 16, and arrive Thursday, July 18 (assuming your 2-day delivery) Friday delivery is 3-day delivery.

    I went to the same web site today, 24 hours after placing my order and went through the process of ordering the same item, again, but cancelling after I got the delivery date of Friday, July 19. So, 24 hours after placing my order, I could have gotten the same delivery date by order today!!!! Which brings to mind a couple of questions: 1) would have I gotten the same delivery date without Amazon Prime? I'm betting, I would. 2) If the delivery date is unknown at the time of order, why mislead customers to think delivery will occur faster than actual delivery?

    I am a regular Amazon customer and I had a very disturbing experience with my latest order, which included headbands for $17. My account was charged three times! And, it was Prime, although it took 4-5 days to arrive rather than the typical 2 days. I called Amazon customer service with the hopes that they could rectify the issue but it only caused more frustration as they simply lied and lied, and all over a silly $17! Their “manager” Mindy told me I was charged numerous times because the item wasn’t in stock. And, that when it’s not in stock, they can charge as many different times as they want until it becomes in stock. She said, it’s a very problematic policy and causes issues every day for them and for customers and they have notified the higher ups at Amazon, to no avail. I was shocked!

    I said, "Wow, so, by ordering something I’m agreeing to letting you charge my account for one item as many times as you want," and she said, yes, that’s the policy I’ve agreed to. Yikes! I can’t imagine if this was actually an expensive item and my checking account was charged over and over again. I then told her that I ordered the product and it stated that there were only 12 items left, so there is no way that it was actually out of stock as it wasn’t that popular of an item. She said, "Oh, actually the policy is that it can be in stock, but we charge every time we check with every Amazon warehouse to see what warehouse has the item." So, I said, "Woahhh so you can have the item in stock and still charge erroneously." She said yes.

    I asked for my $17 back for this misinformation and she refused. I also said that I paid for Prime and it took far longer than two days. Both the regular customer service agent and the manager, Mindy said that the supplier can take as long as they want to ship it out, it just has to be there in two days after they ship it. I was shocked that I’m being led to believe that Amazon Prime means an item will get to me in two days, not two days after a supplier sits on it for days, weeks, or even months. Again, this is just a $17 order but it should have been refunded especially because the manager thinks the “policy” is problematic and because she lied to me.

    I’ve lost faith in Amazon completely! And, my fiancé himself works for Amazon - I’m shocked what the company has turned into. We have given Jeff Bezos the permission to charge our checking accounts as many times as he or an employee feels like and also gives them as much time to hold our money without having to send the item out in any given time frame. This is scary. I won’t be ordering from Amazon anymore and my fiancé is starting to look for another job. This company just isn’t trustworthy anymore. :(

    This is comical to say the least. But, I called Amazon to speak with a rep about a way a package was delivered to my house which was unsafe and most likely damaged the appliance inside. The man that I spoke to on the phone sent me an email with a six digit code to confirm my identity with him verbally. (This was a new security measure I had never encountered.) After speaking for a bit he told me that I would be refunded for the item, which was a significant amount. He told me to then check my email for confirmation. To my surprise and horror, the email that I received was a "Changed password" confirmation. Immediately I thought I had been scammed and was calling a non-Amazon number. The man got off the phone and put someone else on the phone without telling me, who assured me "No password was changed. We sent the wrong email. So sorry. Can you please confirm...."

    At this point I was not giving anymore information to these men and hung up. Lo and behold, my password was changed and I was logged out on my devices. I called Amazon back. I was assured by the person on the line that it was in fact Amazon customer service that I had spoken to previously and there was no reason to worry, as my password would be restored to one of my choosing. Now, I'm already on edge at this point because this is screaming "Identity Theft" all over it. But after the person on the phone assured me that the previous call was with a "Trainee who did not know what he was talking about." (Way to instill customer confidence, Amazon!), all was resolved. Oh but wait. Then this week I ordered an iPad pro. I was confirmed and all was well. Until Monday when they went to charge my card and sent me an email saying that my card was declined.

    This was strange because I had enough money in my account. So I went and checked my Chase account. The money was taken out of my account in a pending transaction. (This is normal, it usually settles with the retailer by end of day.) So I called Amazon and they stated that the bank declined the card and said more verification was needed on the card. (This is a debit card that I use all of the time. It is the only card that I use on Amazon.) I assured them that my bank account had in fact been charged. Instead of figuring this out, the customer service rep, now two more times has tried to charge my card again. These charges have not gone through, as the original charge is still pending on my account.

    Chase will not credit my account back for a couple of business days because the charge is still active, citing that Amazon has not closed the funds. Everyone i speak to on both teams is "on it" but needs 24 hours. And then I have to call in the next day, and wait another 24 hours for anything to happen. So it's already becoming this vicious cycle. The money is still out of my account "pending". Chase has opened a dispute with Amazon. Amazon keeps trying to recharge my account. Is this legal?

    I contacted Amazon.com due to several hacking of my account and unauthorized charges that started in March 25, 2019 through July 8, 2019, of various digital downloads and eGift cards ranging from $50 to $250. Each time I reported the incident, each representative would state that they are documenting the incident and that it gets forwarded to their security/fraud department. They would disable my account and then email me what I needed to do to reopen my account by changing by password.

    I spoke with a representative in their digital department who looked up the IP address to the location of the unauthorized digital transactions were coming from who stated was in Texas. I told him I do not know anyone in Texas. After the 5th time of this occurring and purchases were made to my account, I emailed a detailed outline of the events of these unauthorized transactions to corporate office's customer service with a courtesy copy to Jeff Bezos. His team member contacted me to look into my complaint. A week later she provides me a phone number and request to call her at New York phone number. I called the number and it rang 5 times and then went to voicemail. I let her know that I would call her back in a few hours and the calls went DIRECTLY to voicemail.

    Later that evening she left me a voice message stating that she would email me. In her email she basically stated that I needed to troubleshoot my devices that I own and that the transactions were coming from a secured device. I immediately emailed her back and stated that this in NOT true. She then called me from a Washington State number on July 8th. Because I don't know anyone from Washington I didn't answer the call. It wasn't until I listened to her message that I learned that it was her and in that message she stated for me to provide her a good time for her to contact me back. I did so, and then next day, 7/10/19, I called both phone numbers because I had not heard from her and both calls went straight to voicemail.

    Later that evening I checked my email and she basically stated that they've done all the can do. In her email she insinuates that the hacking of my account is coming from someone I know. She never provided any details identifying any of the locations of where six (6) unauthorized digital downloads and fake emails for eGift cards were made from which at least with digital downloads I know they can be found through IP addresses and other sources. I know for a fact that the unauthorized charges did not come from any device that I have or use in my home. Whoever has been hacking my account for five (5) months, has the ability to go around the two step text notification/authorization process, because each time an eGift is purchased or a digital download, I am NOT notified via text requesting an authorization code.

    This is the worst customer service I have experienced with a company. It's truly unfortunate that this is how Amazon treats their customers by accusing their customer of being a thief and/or knowing thieves especially when there is clear evidence of someone hacking into my account using different email addresses for their eGift cards to be sent to.

One of the third party items after a week of waiting and watching tracking number for shipment to be processes to shipper was NEVER SHIPPED. Finally three days ago the seller just cancelled the order and refunded. Amazon on the details shows refund but nothing shows on my card three days later. Another item I purchased when tracking came showed over 6 weeks for delivery. The same seller was currently showing the same item with 6 day shipping. The order was cancelled and refund issued. Shows on Amazon item details but AGAIN, Amazon has not provided it to my card company.

    On any purchase Amazon charges show up almost immediately but when it comes to refunds, three to five days is quick for them. I also purchase replacements for the items that were refunded, but the items were sold and shipped by Amazon. It's now been three days and still no shipping or tracking number. They continue to push PRIME at you in every purchase and if you do not buy the $110 program they apparently hold you purchase hostage for as long as possible. NO Fast shipping or Customer service here. I have noticed this year that I no longer get good or fast service from Amazon. Customer service is almost non existent and when you do get someone they don't understand your complaint or choose not to with nothing being done. You can't even file a complaint against a third party seller. All links say to contact the seller.

I'm afraid Amazon is failing at their customer service, allowing poor and fraudulent sellers to sell on their site and punishes those that don't buy their Prime with no assistance and slow shipping. I done with Amazon until I see a turnaround.

    I paid 24.00 dollars to get my product here by July 9th. On July 12th, I woke up to this. "On the way: Delivery attempted. An attempt was made to deliver your package, but the business address was closed because of a Holiday. Please look for a notice of attempted delivery for the next steps." Only problem is, there was no Holiday in Georgia and the office was open until 5 p.m. est. I then turned to contacting the agent, they confirmed my package never left the depot. How is this possible? I told them I wanted a full refund for shipping cost and a phone call when it leaves the depot, which is 1 hour 45 minutes from my house. That is how the can reassure me it is actually OUT for delivery. I should have bought this item at Newegg.

    I have been an Amazon Prime member for many years. Back when they used to use a reliable delivery system. Over the many years I had never had a package lost or stolen. Fast forward to a few months ago when Amazon started to deliver their own products. 3 of my last 4 orders have never been received. I live in an Assisted Living complex with a front office. It is not difficult to come in and leave a package with the office staff as the office is right in the front door. But Amazon delivery teams seem not able to do so. 2 of the times they "left package with resident" i.e. a random person walking around. Surprise surprise the resident was NOT me and I never got it.

    Then last night they came after the office was closed and the front door was locked. The quick-witted delivery service decided it would be safe to lean it in a little locked alcove against the locked door.. free for anyone and everyone to take. Guess what? Package never reached me. Amazon delivery used to be good. Now, why bother?

    What surprised me that upon arriving to the Locker where items was delivered per my order, etc, the Code that was issued and sent with my email alert didn't work when I attempted to just type it in and get my items. Now since the code didn't work after trying many times and in between tries, it got longer or seconds were added as if by penalizing w/ too many tries, I was informed by cust. service when I called the toll free # on lockers that the reason code is not working was because items were being returned because I was late in picking up or rather, the 3 days allotted time had expired and items weren't in the locker at present. No - I didn't think so. Even with the July 4th Holiday I was not over the late 3 days. And so be it - maybe I was(?).

    That was Friday the 5th so I called on the weekend (Sunday) to inquire about refund since I didn't have any email concerning the update or the status as it was of what turned out, and was surprised by the nice Cust. Svc. woman who said, "NO" or "YES," the items were still in the locker, and I could still pick them up and at that point assured me that the code should work and that she now added a new extension of time. So there ya go, and went over the next day since I work nearby where lockers are and the only thing was... the code didn't work. Again.

    So Cust. Svc. asked if I could just go ahead and use my cell phone to scan bar code on the lighted scanning part of lockers and I would need to retrieve it from email. I said Yes to that and I couldn't try it (yet) since I was on break and had to return to work but was happy to say I would later. But the next day I couldn't get the email to work on the phone-Windows phone that is now going 'out of business' or rather the long story short, I couldn't get it on the phone.

    So by today the third day, I called and just asked couldn't I just get a new {blank} code to "work" and how hard might that really be; with all these satellites and technology as it is, I mean... and the starting numeral of the code was zero that instead repeatedly plops out a 9. Oh but now I was told that that isn't possible either way since the items were now being returned due to the allotted 3 days - GIMME A FREAKIN' break-time. You got it. And I was just a little bit mad by this whole thing by now. And sure enough the notification was in the email later that the process was in the mode now of refunding, etc. And after that, I was free as they indicated, to reorder or as I desire and was Thanked for being a Prime Member.

    By the way this SAME locker location within a couple months ago, I experienced trouble whereas there was no touch screen keyboard but the screen was going through what looked to be a scanning process or rolling data is how I described it when I called from location. They indicated that I could come by later before the end of the day or after work and they would be sending someone to help and since that didn't happen nor the next day and one more after, they refunded the purchase and extended a $10 Amazon-only purchase for the trouble.

    On June 8th, my Amazon Prime account got hacked. I found this out on the 11th when 2 packages arrived with stuff I didn't order. When I tried to log into my account I found out it had been hacked. So I immediately called Amazon and they agreed it was hacked and were able to get control back of the account. At that time I told them to just cancel the account and luckily I told them to deactivate my credit card. They assured me all was well, the charges would be taken off my CC and that would be the end of it. I kept watching the CC statement to see if the charges have been removed and they have not. Today, July 8th, I called Amazon and told them they needed to get the charges off my CC and to again cancel the account. The guy "Josh" proceeds to tell me there is no record of any charges on the account and that I have to call my CC co and work them to get it removed.

    I said, “That's crazy! Your people said you'd take care of it since YOU were the ones that got hacked.” He apologized and said nothing he can do. I demanded to speak to a supervisor. I told him him the same thing, it's terrible! Back when this happened, the fraud dept. said the charges would be taken care of. He said be that as it may, the only way I am ever getting my money back is if I call the CC co and dispute the charges and file a claim thru them. He was rude and kept cutting me off too. So now I have to call the CC co and see if they will work with me to get this money back. At the very least Amazon should have told me a month ago they were NOT going to take care of it and I would have done it back then! Now it's going to take at least 90 days for this to clear up and still I'm getting emails from Amazon telling me my credit card has been denied and that I'm in danger of losing my prime membership.

On occasion, a UPS or FedEx driver will WALK up my driveway to drop a package at my back door (the front door is perfectly fine for every delivery, not to mention easier).

    Now thanks to Amazon, I have all sorts of random vehicles pulling all the way in my driveway to my back door to make a delivery. On top of that, trying to turn around in my driveway, nearly hitting my vehicles and my deck every time. If the Amazon driver happens to stay in the street like every other delivery service, they of course don't use hazards, park backwards on the street, are distracted on their phone, etc. Are the drivers even in a uniform to help identify them? Of course not. This is such a lazy, careless, and unsafe way to try and push out as many deliveries as possible.

    As a prime member I am required to pay $119 a year. I have been a member since 2006 and happily so until now. Figuring out shipping terms has become a nightmare. Used to be with your membership you were entitled to receive your item within 2 days. (Not free shipping, because I paid for it through my membership.) Then it became 2 day shipping, which means once it’s on the truck, you SHOULD receive it in 2 days. Now, you have “qualified shipping” which means the item or items must be handled by amazon and total $35 or more.

    I recently ordered 2 separate items. The first Prime item took 5 days to ship because of excessive weight (20 lbs for example is a large bag of dog food). Well needless to say, it didn’t come in until the 8th day. I couldn’t wait, so I purchased another at a retail store and returned the Amazon item. The second item offered NEXT DAY delivery, which was great because it was something I urgently needed. Did not receive it. On Tuesday I did receive a email stating I should receive it by Monday. Furious was my mood. I had to go out and purchase a replacement because I couldn’t wait.

    I immediately emailed Amazon and advised them of my displeasure. That Target beats their price. I receive the item in 2 days and I get 5% off my order as a customer loyalty discount. So why am I paying a $119 membership fee. Their response was that they were sorry I was unhappy, so here’s $20 credit. And... it’s up to me if I want to renew my membership. I didn’t want their stupid $20 credit. I wanted to be assured that they are doing everything the can to improve their customer service.

    I have been a Amazon fan for some time. But now I am changing my sourcing due to the fact that their delivery service is extremely dangerous, inconsistent and ignorant. They are logistically inept as well. We live a suburb community close to Chicago. It's a mix for city & farming communities. Unfortunately the drivers are completely ignorant to the basics in any driving delivery services. They abandon vehicles right in the middle of the road to deliver packages with no hazard lights on, not looking at traffic, when crossing the road, constantly looking at their phone app and not even approaching open driveways (I assume this is because they do not know how to back-up their non-windowed vehicles).

    We often receive multiple deliveries in a day if more than 1 package is purchased. The logistical planning is terrible. Then they dump the package wherever they want if they cannot figure out that our door is right next to the sign on our building. They even dumped a package which was a carton of reamed premium printer paper outside in the pouring rain while 3 techs sat in my office. Amazon's answer, "Oh sorry, we will give you a $5 credit for your troubles." Geez, thanks now that you ruined my $34 purchase. Just the worst!

    I've always trusted Amazon in the past, even with customer service that wasn't always good, but today was absolutely awful! I had just started to chat and got shimmied between 3 different representatives within 2 minutes. They didn't understand my issue, and when I tried explaining it several times in different ways, they still didn't understand. That wasn't so bad in itself. The problem was that then they kept arguing with me that they did understand the issue, and that what they were doing would solve the problem, when it absolutely would not solve the problem. I wasn't being a jerk either- I will explain the problem in more detail below.

    Then I asked to speak to an American please, because when I ask for help from customer representatives from India, they are often men that want to argue with me and think I don't know what I'm talking about when I absolutely do know what I am talking about! They give me stupid resolutions that don't apply to the problem or just tell me I'm wrong, and then argue with me about it for a long time. And on top of that, when I end up asking for an American or supervisor to talk to, 'cause if it is something complicated or tricky, that is the only thing that helps, they kept refusing and kept arguing with me. I really get the impression that they think I'm stupid and just need to shut up and do what I'm told because I am a woman. This doesn't happen with anyone else, but men in customer service from India.

    It took a long time and lots of words to get them to finally transfer me to a customer service agent from the Philippines. He helped quite a bit more, but still didn't totally solve the issue. He did the best he could and it was good enough. It might be a new issue. So, it might not be an issue that many of their customer service people are aware of.

    Anyway, about the actual issue I was trying to solve because it speaks to customer service also- The problem was that lots of items I order from Amazon lately keep arriving from China. They say they will arrive in a week, but keep changing the arrival date, while having no record shown of the previous arrival date. Then the item is cheap junk that is not as described. It's not from the name brand company and without warranty. Or it's just shoddy homemade garbage. The worst part is that it is extremely difficult to find information on whether something is being shipped from China from a 3rd party seller. I don't know if they are allowing more 3rd party sellers from China, or if 3rd party sellers from China are creating misleading pages that look like the item is coming from Amazon, or at least from the States. Or if people are hacking Amazon and changing stuff around, which seems to be happening with arrival dates at the very least.

    The items from China take over a month to get here, and are usually shoddy and are different from the description. Even after I double checked all my items to make sure none were coming from China, one still snuck through and it was garbage- a badly sewn crooked wide cushion for a porch swing that was barely stuffed and not the brand I ordered. It did not look like the picture. I now feel like I have to triple check all my items, and take pictures of the pages with the original descriptions, including information about shipping and the company it is sold from, and photograph my check out process to make sure I can prove what is happening with the items I am buying. I don't want to go through this process. I don't want to have to go through the returns process every time I turn around because the descriptions are wrong or hard to find.

    So, the bottom line is that Amazon needs to make it REALLY CLEAR AND VISIBLE that things are coming from a 3rd party seller, and REALLY CLEAR AND VISIBLE if an item is being shipped from outside the United States. They should not be allowing these other people to build misleading pages on their site. I NEVER had this problem in the past. It was always clear and fairly easy to find where an item was being shipped from.

    I keep running across lots of reviews where others are having the same issue. I tried warning others in reviews, but Amazon rejected my reviews and wouldn't publish them. And I still never got to speak to an American. In the past, all I had to do was ask if it seemed like they weren't understanding the problem. Then the issue was taken care of quickly and easily. I kept trying to get the phone call option for customer service and Amazon wouldn't let use that that either, when I've spent hundreds of dollars at their site in the past few months. I can't speak to them about this problem, 'cause they won't let me. So the only thing I can do is warn others about what's going on with this company.

Now I am not receiving some of the most important parts of my order until Monday, and Tuesday. I called to complain. The woman told me that the tow shipping doesn't apply until they ship the items out. So in other words if they decide to wait a week to ship, I get my order two days from when they feel like shipping it out.

    This is completely unacceptable. Two days is two days, not two days after they feel like shipping it. I was given the runaround and a measly $5 credit for my inconvenience. Big whoop. I really needed the order when it was stated it would be here. This is not the first time this has happened, and with their new policy of complete nonsense I'm sure won't be the last.

    I have ordered from Amazon for many years. Amazon used to take great pride in customer relations and with the care of delivery. Over the past two years, delivery had become horrible. Far too many of my packages have dented and open cans, thus the contents of the cans are rotten, and the packaging to the cans are busted open. The boxes delivered are often crunched and with the tape holding them closed, open. I have thrown so many cans away because I got sick of reporting it to no avail.

    I have noted to deliver my packages under and to the back and at the side door of my carport. Delivery continues to place my packages to the front of my carport where every one can see I have packages, so any one can steal them. There is an area of the front of my carport that puddles with water when it rains and they insist to sit the packages down right in the big puddle of water.

    One time, delivery placed the packages near to where I have designated but they put them up against my door and I could not get out of my door without pushing hard to shove the packages, knocking the stack down to the cement carport. I am not able to use my front door and this was my only way to get out of my door.

    I have contacted chat help a couple of times and each time they give the promise this wont happen again, yet it continues. I sent email to Amazon, to their customer service address, of which I have used in past and they did respond, but this time I got a bounce email from them stating where I can find help, which back to chat help we go. So, they no longer care to even respond via email and handle the situations that arise. I went to chat, yet again, stated the dilemma, and the person typed back that they will take care of this and ended this sentence with.... "You're welcome." Now, that sounds like someone is being a smart butt! And this has gone on for too long, so I am sure the issue will continue and Amazon no longer cares at all!

    I have stopped ordering items where I can order elsewhere, which are items I order largely, but for many items, I cannot get fast delivery, so I am stuck with Amazon. Also, I use the Amazon Wishlist for the public to donate kitty food, as I tend to ear tipped kitties. I wish Chewy would provide a way that people can shop from my wishlist, because I would take that away from Amazon too!

    Logistics is the newest delivery option for Amazon. Logistics will not deliver to my senior home due to the locked door. I give detailed instructions on how to get thru the door and they refuse to deliver anything. Last 7 orders had to cancel. So, today, I sat outside and watched the map showing Logistics location and when it got close to my delivery, I stood up and walked out into the street to hail down the truck. It never stopped at my home, but rated my product as undeliverable. I spent the rest of the afternoon on the phone with Amazon and it's now Amazon Logistics you speak with, not Amazon for delivery issues and Logistics won't help at all.

    I pay $12.99 monthly for Prime and it does state guaranteed next day delivery, but since Logistics has been the delivery vehicle, they won't deliver period and I have to cancel my order. So, will be filing as many complaints against Amazon Logistics that I can to alert everyone what's happening now with Amazon. And the bottom line...Amazon doesn't care. Debbie

    My wife has not been able to take care of a duplicate charge for Amazon Prime. Every time she called, she said they were shady and unhelpful. She had me call to make sure that I did not a Prime account, and when I clicked on Customer Service, I was directed to bottom-feeding vermin frauds in India that caught me off guard and got my credit card number out of me. We had to report the fake charges and cancel the card on the eve of a high-anxiety flight and cruise my wife had to take. Amazon not only failed us business-wise, but also caused problems in our household. We just want to cancel and want NOTHING to do with Amazon EVER again.

    Those that order from Amazon know that you get a little text message to let you know when your delivery is getting close. I received that message and saw driver on map was about two miles away. Great. I checked again about an hour later and driver's dot has moved to within my townhouse complex and it states my delivery is next. Awesome! I wait and wait expecting a knock at the door. Nothing. I check door and no package. I check the app again and now the driver is about a mile away, but it still states my delivery is next. Maybe they got lost or turned around. The driver keeps getting farther and farther away. And it appears they are heading back to the warehouse in Sumner. They are heading south anyway.

    I call customer service and they cannot help me. They state they cannot see where the driver is or have a way to contact them. Odd since I have a handy app that shows the general area of the driver, why does their customer service department not have something similar or better? They assure me my package will be delivered tonight. We will see. Last check and I no longer have access to the map of the driver, which tells me they are out of range, off duty, or back at warehouse. Ridiculous. To add insult to injury, we actually made two different orders yesterday and one of the orders was delivered at 1pm this morning. How am I still waiting for the second delivery at 730pm?!?

    I subscribed to Amazon Prime so that I could get guaranteed free two day shipping, but I found out that free shipping means there’s zero recourse when they don’t deliver items or deliver it late. Normally when you pay for shipping and the item comes past the guaranteed shipping date, you get a refund of the shipping price. But if you have Amazon Prime and your package arrives after the guaranteed shipping date, Amazon doesn’t have to refund anything. So they can send items as late as they want with no penalty for their poor service. Plus, if they don’t even send your item at all, they not only don’t have to refund your shipping price, but they won’t resend any missing items. I will never order from them again because of the abysmal customer service I received.

    This review is for the Amazon Business customer service. I am a very small business owner and have set up a business account on Amazon. This is a little different than the regular Amazon most consumers use. An account is set up with pay by invoice. Essentially, I buy something and Amazon Business invoices me with a net 30 days. January 2019 I made a $300+ payment for an invoice. Two checks for the same amount were sent because I thought that the mail service had lost the first check. Amazon Business received and posted both checks to my account. Which was fine.

    A month later in February, Amazon reversed one of my payments. I called. The person I spoke to said I did a stop payment on one of the checks. That was not true. I emailed countless times with no response from Amazon. I called several times. Every time they would tell me someone would look into it and get in touch with me. That never happened. Someone told me at one time when I called that the payment was sent back to my bank in March 2019. I checked with my bank and I never received the refund. It is now the end of June and I just received the refund. I should point out that I didn't want a refund, I just wanted them to apply the payment I made to my account. I told them that countless times.

    I am very disappointed in the treatment I received. My funds basically disappeared for 4 months. There is absolutely no reason it should take 4 months to get something this simple resolved. I was ignored and given the run around every time I emailed or called. No one I talked to actually listened or took the time to look into the situation. They need to have an option to pay online. I think it would scale down the need to speak with people who don't care or either don't have the knowledge or drive to provide good customer service.

I received a text yesterday to inform me that there was difficulty delivering my package and it included a picture of it on the table in the mailroom.

    Other packages have been delivered to incorrect addresses and residents have to deliver them. Many of our residents leave during the summer so if a package gets left at one of these homes incorrectly it won’t be discovered for months. Our homes are on GPS system so there shouldn’t be a problem finding our houses. We have enjoyed excellent service from UPS, FedEx, USPS so if Amazon is not going to use reliable service I will stop ordering.

    After hearing from some friends that Amazon was having issues delivering on base, my husband called and made a note attached to our account saying that we live on a military base and that the driver would need base access to make the delivery if the package was not coming via UPS or USPS. This was done prior to the order being placed.

    We received a text message today saying that our package had a delivery attempt made and that they were unable to deliver it. I’ve been waiting all day at home for this package as it contains a birthday present. No attempt was made. I called customer service to see what happened and was told that your Amazon drivers do not have base access and that there was no way to request that USPS or UPS be the ones to handle our packages. I was then disconnected from customer service.

    I called back and spoke to another rep. I asked if she could see the note on our delivery instructions and she said yes, but basically that it does not matter and there is no way to ensure that our packages will come via USPS or UPS. Your customer service rep then told me we would need to meet the driver at another location (why have Prime/delivery if I need to drive off base to meet your driver,) or they would leave it with the gate guards. I can assure you, Amazon, that the gate guards at military bases will not hold packages for residents. Please figure out how to fix this. We love using Amazon being able to shop from home and have the convenience of having things delivered to our doorstep.

    Amazon guarantees 2 day delivery for signing up with Amazon Prime. However, their drivers feel otherwise and won't deliver packages to your home. That means if you live in an apartment complex, the drivers will go directly to the office. If the office is closed they will leave the packages propped against the locked door out in the open or they will claim they attempted to deliver but the business was closed. I am a resident. My address is a residency. My apartment is easy to access and right next door to the office building. Yet the drivers will not deliver my packages to my home! Drivers are lazy and incompetent. Amazon doesn't really care. It doesn't put a dent in their conglomeration if they issue refunds or $25 credits. And you're still without your product. Thing is, you are paying a fee for Prime. Amazon makes guarantees they won't fulfill. This is fraud at its finest.

Little did I know that I would be penalized for Amazon's mistake. I was charged $5 more for the second camera AND taxes which I wasn't charged the first time. It ended up costing me $9 more altogether because of a mistake that had nothing to do with me. Then, the camera didn't work when he got it. After this, I canceled my Amazon Prime membership.

Yeah, it misses sometimes but not on a regular basis. I'm done with Amazon. I tried Amazon Prime and while the delivery service was better - or at least more consistent, I have no interest in streaming video/music or any of the other benefits of Prime except the 2 day shipping.

    Have you ever tried to use a physical gift card at Amazon? You either lost some of your money, or were completely frustrated. They still haven't figured out how to split an order between a physical gift card and another payment method. I spent over 2 hours on the phone with customer service getting passed from one service agent to another and not one of them could actually help me. All I wanted to do was use my American Express Gift Card with a $25 value (pre-paid card that looks like a credit card and has a credit card number) to pay for part of a $35 purchase.

    Amazon insisted that I could only use the card for something that cost under $25 (forcing you to lose value since it will never come to exactly $25). Brick and mortar stores have been able to perform this payment split for as long as I can remember but not even the higher level service to which I was finally escalated could manage to charge the gift card for $25 and then pay the balance with any other of my registered payment methods.

    Amazon is a leading online retailer and it is ridiculous that they haven't been able to figure this out either in an automated method or by a procedure where customer service helps split the payment. I'm sure there are other reasons to split payments between two methods... Amazon doesn't seem to care or even understand why a customer would want to do such a thing.

    I have been a customer of Amazon since 2001. They have recently started delivering their own packages using their own internal delivery service. I am very displeased with this service. I constantly receive messages that my packages couldn't be delivered, when I have clearly indicated in the instructions what the driver needs to do. It is not difficult at all. Then I have to call Amazon to get it straightened out. For example, just a few minutes ago I received the following message: "Delivery attempt unsuccessful. Sorry, we were unable to locate your address, but we'll try again. Please add instructions to help us find your address."

    They delivered TWO packages to me YESTERDAY (one of them with problems like this), and today they can't locate my address? This is crazy from such a prominent company. This is not some startup firm just trying to get off the ground. So unprofessional from the world's largest retailer. It seems that the drivers are not reading the delivery instructions. I am considering ordering my products elsewhere in order to avoid this hassle.

    Several months back, I used my sister's Prime account to order some gardening supplies. On Monday, I guess my sister's card was declined for an autorenewed tv subscription that no one wanted, so Amazon Prime decided to bill my card and my account without my consent instead of asking my sister for an alternative form of payment. When I called customer service to reverse the charges, the agent I spoke with refused to provide me with a full refund. To add to my frustration, she also mispronounced my name throughout the entire duration of the call, despite multiple corrections. I guess Jeff Bezos has made a lot of money off of straight up robbing people! Luckily, my bank - which has GREAT customer service - stepped in on my behalf and made sure I got my money back. Still... I deleted all of my financial info from Amazon and I doubt I'll order anything from them anytime soon.

    Amazon used to be very good in the past but lately, their service has gone down the drain. Amazon.com is somehow ok but Amazon.ae and Amazon.in websites do not deliver on time and there are so many issues with them not dispatching the order or sending incorrect items and yet charge massive amounts for shipping where responses are not even replied to for days and to add to it the customer support is non-existent for Amazon.ae.

    I now look at alternatives because Amazon has repeatedly let me down and Amazon.in were promising to dispatch an item 2 days ago just did it today which is well beyond the promised date and the old date also miraculously disappears from their system. I was using a freight forwarder and now because of this I have 2 packages not able to be combined and will have to pay double shipping for one item barely a few grams heavy. So the service and reputation of Amazon are now in question as the company does not even make an attempt to contact the consumers and one has to follow themselves for their orders. And Amazon fulfilled items are a new league on their own and if you leave an honest review they dismiss it as they say that the experience is managed by Amazon and dismiss the review. This is clearly wrong because they can simply filter out what review they do not like.

    Terrible customer service. I have spent thousands of thousands of dollars on Amazon over the past few months and I had someone make fraudulent purchases on my account. I contacted Amazon and they told me that there were fraudulent purchases and that several weeks ago they had caught several fraudulent purchases on my account but did not contact me. Immediately we shut down my account because they had use gift cards or credits that I had on my account. Now when you log onto my account it says I have made no purchases and I have wiped out my account balance so not only did I lose the money that they made fraudulent purchases with but they wiped out the entire gift card amount. Have spent our after hour on phone and they advised me that they will have people in the fraud department called me because they only can email them and I have never heard from them. Unbelievable.

    Amazon used to be a reputable company. Since they have outgrown themselves, the customer service has taken a serious turn for the worse. Not only do I have to call numerous times to get someone I can understand through the very heavy accents - which usually I don't have a problem with, but the lying, cheating, and idea that the customer comes last, has changed my perspective of what I believed Amazon to be.

    My most recent experience was ordering an item that was sold by Amazon and was fully available. Place the order without a problem, and was promised a two day delivery. The day of delivery, I checked the delivery status numerous times, and it was promised by 8 pm. I stayed home from work so I could intercept the package, as it was important. At 9 pm, still no package.

    I contacted Amazon through chat and was informed that it had not yet shipped and was no longer available. The chat conversation was a bit of a nightmare as they refused to acknowledge what they had done and refused my refund. I then called and spoke with outsourced customer service, whose employees' English was so bad I could not understand what they were saying and had to call back several times. When I finally got someone who I could understand enough to speak with (although still very difficult), it went horribly. They said they could not provide my refund because the item had not shipped. Really?

    I spent hours on the phone with them getting nowhere. So I have to wait until the item that has since become unavailable is back in stock and has shipped before they are willing to give me my money back - and they are now claiming it was from a third party seller, so they have no options to refund me. When I ordered the available item, it was from Amazon, not a third party seller. I then spoke to a supervisor, who reiterated the lies and was quite rude and unapologetic for what Amazon had done.

    In my opinion, doing business with a company who treats you this way is not worth the convenience. I'd rather put money in the pocket of a local seller than the billionaires who have no problem screwing over us peasants. I know other people who are refusing to give Amazon their business out of principle... And I think I've just joined them. Just absolutely horrible!

    I have been making so many purchases from Amazon and to know they so not stand behind their sellers is sad. After going through 5 workers that couldn't read or comprehend I did manage to finally get help. They do not verify these sellers so they can just rip you off. Then all they want to do is keep emailing the third party seller that tells you lie after lie. With the proof on hand they still act as it is a problem then they swear you have been refunded to your bank and you never get. It is sad that such a big organization doesn't take time to make sure these overseas sellers are doing right.

    I have had a problem with about 4 sellers but this last one top the cake. They even tried to change stuff while I was in my account but screenshots are a powerful thing. Then you keep telling me a package was delivered to my mailbox in California, wow I live in Georgia. Why is it so hard for you to open the account and get it right you don't mind taking the money from my account as soon as I order and not when shipped as the policy says... Take the time to hire people that can actually read and have customer service skills because this is bad for business and after my few items arrive that I am and have been waiting on for MONTHS get here I will be closing my account because a business that doesn't stand behind what they sell is horrible.

    And for a sorry customer service rep to tell you you cannot speak to a supervisor, no no no, then hang up in your face because he too dumb to listen is a big NO NO. Amazon really needs to do better with choosing sellers and customer service reps. And never order from their seller Fu-Fun because they will lie and rip you off and while Amazon claims to not deal with this it is a lie because when you give a bad review they do not approve it or request you take it down. Way to go Amazon. Your whole policy is one big lie.

    Over the past three or four months I have experienced very poor customer service from Amazon. I ordered some bulbs for my garden thru a third party vendor. Received a message stating order was shipped. Kinda forgot about it but after 10 days recalled I had not received them. Checked with the post office and was told a shipping label was created but the item was never turned over to the USPS.

    I called to cancel the order and that day the tracking indicated the package was turned over to the postal service. When the bulbs finally arrived they were rotted. I called the vendor and Amazon. I returned the items with tracking that day. Amazon customer service rep said she would investigate and call me back ASAP. I never heard back from her or the vendor. Did not receive a refund either. So I was put 75 dollars plus the return shipping. On two other occasions I have received very poor customer service from Amazon. I won't bore you with the details. Their call center is most likely in India since I can't understand or hear the reps very well. Unfortunately I will not be using Amazon in the future. It is impossible to resolve a problem with them.

    After having been a Prime member for nine years, I was turned down for a trial which would have given me a margin as I am going through a crisis. Now mind you I was not asking for anything free, I was asking them to allow me enough leeway to retain my membership so I could get the things in my cart. And pay the full annual membership fees in July. They said no.

    They kept sending me emails asking me to rate their customer service. The customer service at Prime has always been good, but Prime is not good at solving policy related issues. When a corporation such as Amazon refuses to make exceptions for small things then it becomes not worth it. They quickly reminded me how they have reduced fees for EBT recipients. Not everyone in a financial hardship is an EBT card holder. While they promise two day delivery, they don't deliver in two days and will not tell you that until your order is paid for, and yet millions of customers never complain.

    This is my first complaint about any company anywhere. If you are looking into a Prime membership investigate every option. I will be the first to admit they are hard to beat, but sometimes it isn't about about the beat. Sometimes it is about a company's willingness to be fair and kind. I am the one who would pay the extra 10.00 to be treated with dignity. If you are trying to make ends meet the last thing you want to hear is what a company is doing for EBT. The Poverty and Financial Hardship line does not begin and end with EBT. So think before you make that Amazon Prime Membership a reality.

    Setting up our Baby Registry was easy, the Welcome Box was fantastic. We really enjoyed that we could connect our whole family internationally to our registry. Here's where the frustration and headache began: Amazon Logistics and Fulfillment out of San Antonio, Texas, has delivered MULTIPLE packages to completely wrong addresses AND old addresses that were not the labeled and addressed location the purchaser designated. SAT5 Amazon Logistics and Fulfillment gets a 1 out of 5 stars from our family.

    They delivered our $250.00 crib to the wrong house, not just once, but TWICE! Additionally, the street name and address was not even CLOSE to our actual address. The wrong address was the same address the delivery driver delivered the crib to incorrectly for the first two attempts. The 3rd attempt, our address was kept confidential and miraculously they didn't deliver it to the wrong address (which from the photo, appeared very suspicious).

    This evening, another package was marked as delivered. However, they decided to deliver it to my work address (45 minutes from my house) where I will not be going to until January 2020 due to medical leave. This is why I changed all of my addresses over 4 weeks ago. The SAT5 fulfillment center is HORRIBLE and frankly, I am concerned drivers are delivering packages to incorrect addresses on purpose. I am SO disappointed with these TBA #'s issued by Amazon and the fact that they don't track anything and attempt to deliver as much as possible through these non-traceable numbers. I don't want another fulfillment center to touch my deliveries anymore. I only want UPS, USPS, FedEx or DHL delivering with clear and direct tracking abilities on their delivered items.

    Amazon. Your customer service is fantastic, with the exception of Mishka out of the Cape May, Africa location who transferred me to the registry department (completely out of your protocol) to the Baby Registry customer service center in Tennessee. Cape May employees, Kimberlin and Patrick have gone above and beyond when the two crib packages were delivered to the same wrong address and it took over 3 weeks to receive our crib on the 3rd shipment attempt (5 out of 5). Tennessee Gift Registry employees were amazing, caring and listened to my frustrations (5 out of 5). You're getting a 1 out of 5 due to your fulfillment center and your delivery drivers. I encourage you to scrutinize your hiring process around selection of local delivery drivers more vigorously as I don't believe all of these ill routed packages can be chalked up to an accident.

    I'm going to be seeking out other online merchants to fulfill my shopping needs prior to Amazon moving forward due to SAT5 having such questionable local delivery drivers. I can't afford to continue to have packages lost, delivered to the wrong address or possibly even stolen. It's not the pickers or the individuals in the warehouse, since the packages always make it out for delivery. Consumers need tracking numbers, as does Amazon Fulfillment so that they can hold their drivers accountable for when they mysteriously deliver packages to the incorrect address, etc.

    This week, for the third time this year alone, Amazon has double charged my debit card for a single order. This is very frustrating and ties up my funds until it all gets straightened out. Luckily this time, it was only for thirty dollars. In the past, it has been for larger orders, which really could have been troublesome. When you contact Amazon customer service, they are quick to blame the bank that the card is from. They state that the bank duplicated the charge. That you need to contact them to get your funds back.

    The bank does not authorize your card, Amazon does. In order for your bank to correct Amazon's mistake, you must wait for the charge to fully process through in order to dispute it. Then, the credit back to your account takes 3-10 days. So, because Amazon incorrectly charges your card twice, you are out the funds for the fraudulent charge for almost two weeks. This is very common, as when I was searching for how to file a complaint, I came across many other double charged customers.

    On June 1st, I ordered a few items, having Amazon Prime, they were all free 1-day delivery, split into 3 packages. June 2nd: All packages showed Out For Delivery, 1 package arrived that day. June 3rd: “Out For Delivery”, again, no reason given for not delivering the previous day. I got a text from Amazon delivery driver that he couldn’t reach the address, no explanation why. I did not see the text right away, but when I replied, it said chat session expired. Tracking the package online, it showed the location of the delivery driver (which I didn’t know it did), and said, “Driver has a few more stops before yours.” No delivery that day.

    June 4th: “Out for delivery”, again. I tried looking an Amazon’s website for help. I noticed “Delivery Instructions” and saw that I had an old gate code for my community put in, which has changed a few days ago. I completely forgot that I even gave that out because I’ve been using Amazon for years and years and until recently, packages were shipped via UPS or USPS and neither needed that code. Now it’s their own drivers and they need that code. OK, I thought, it was my mistake, I guess, I’ll change the code. Changed the code at about 8 AM that day. I was home, so I tracked the driver, hoping they could see the updated gate code. Nope, after “You’re next”, package did not arrive, changed to “More stops before yours.” Crap.

    Now call phone support. 1st lady (with a heavy accent) called back (Amazon support calls you, you don’t call them). I asked if there was any way for her to contact the driver and ask for another attempt with the new gate code as I could see the driver on the map 5 minutes away from my house. At first she did not seem to understand what I was asking, telling me sometimes package status was not accurate, blah blah, telling me she could re-schedule delivery 2 days from now, June 6th. NO. I said, “I can see the freaking driver live on the map with my package, 5 minutes away, can you contact him please??”, this time she put me on hold while she “contacted” the driver. 1 minute hold and disconnected.

    Requested another call. This time a guy called (again, heavy accent). Again, not understanding what I asked, again asked to reschedule for June 6th. NO. He put me on hold to contact driver, 2 minutes on hold, he came back, said no answer from driver, but he helpfully rescheduled 2 days from now, June 6th. I can see online item no longer “Out for delivery”, now says “Delivery Rescheduled, Arriving June 6th”. I asked why not re-schedule for tomorrow, the 5th. He replied: “Attempts will be made every day until June 6th” Fine. Asked him to try contacting the driver, was put on hold, again, could not contact the driver. Asked if he could confirm that my Delivery Instructions were updated, said “Can’t for privacy reasons”.

    June 5th: No “Out for Delivery”, still “Scheduled for 6th.” Super frustrating. 1) Now using their own drivers, Amazon cannot deliver everywhere UPS or USPS delivers without additional help. 2) Why no reason given for no delivery the first day? 3) Why can’t I contact driver myself, I can see him on the map!? 4) Why didn’t driver see new delivery instructions hours after they’re updated online? 5) Why can’t phone support reach their damn drivers, they’re tracked with what I presume is the same phone app that drivers use to make the deliveries. 6) Why re-schedule 2 days from now and blatantly lie that delivery will be attempted every day? Overall, painfully bad experience. I expected better from Amazon.

    To those smart enough to read Amazon reviews, congratulations. I'm about to help you out. My Amazon account showed me that my packages were delivered Sunday, June 2nd. I live in an apartment complex so I specifically left a note on my order to have the packages left inside the office. Instead, I showed up to my front office on Monday morning and was informed no packages had arrived yet. I grew worried because there are times I see packages simply left in our unlocked mail room all the time and our apartment complex has told us, and all delivery people, that packages have been getting stolen so if the office is closed do not simply leave them unprotected in the hallway next to the mailboxes. Unfortunately, I believe the delivery people simply were too lazy to follow this simple order and left my package for anyone to pick up. I do not blame Amazon for this.

    What I DO blame Amazon for is their inadequate approach to handling my missing packages. I spoke with an individual who simply stopped responding to me over the phone, waiting for me to hang up instead of answering my questions. The next person told me there was nothing they could do to help me, and then asked if that would be all for this call. The third person told me that to receive my packages I need to file a police report. This is when my patience wore thin. I told her that instead of filing a police report that Amazon should give me a refund. At that point, I'd had enough. The unprofessionalism was unbelievable, given that Amazon is supposed to be one of the most popular shopping destinations.

    After calming down and seeing as there was only one way to resolve my issue, I filed a police report and called Amazon again. I was told that this was STILL inadequate for me to receive my package. Then I was mocked over the phone as a woman ignored my many attempts to explain my situation. It was as if this was the first time someone had been missing a package that said it was already delivered!!! I was told to look out for an email from Amazon so I could submit my police report, which was already accepted by the police department and pending investigation, and FINALLY receive my items. Yet, this was not enough.

    I was told to give them the phone number I had used to file the police report. I gave the Amazon call center agent this number, and then she put me on hold while she attempted to call them. She said she could not get through and told me that this was the end of our call and hung up. This is when I had the idea to create a conference call between the police non-emergency phone line and Amazon. The man who answered said he could not be on a conference call with the police department and forced me to hang up with them.

    Essentially, the whole time I was treated like a fool who should just accept that my money is gone. But no, I wasn't going down that easy. For the 6th time today (6/4/19), I called Amazon. Then I was FINALLY told that they would take the next 72 hours to do an investigation about the situation. Let's see if they actually are able to resolve my problem. I highly doubt it. I might call again tomorrow.

I can't fix the issue you can. That is why I am asking for several months of free Prime for the stress that I am getting trying to get the lower rate and no one on your end knows what's happening.

    I have a gift card (Rs. 2000) and that expired once I tried to redeem it in my account. I am getting an error, "The gift card you are trying to add has expired. Please contact Amazon Customer care to Revalidate it this gift card." So I tried from 6 May 2019 to till 4 June 2019. My problem is not solved by the Amazon team. Customer Executive is replying that it's an Internal issue going on. That's why it will take much time to resolve. I was called Amazon customer care 5-6 times and every time new executive will asking me the same question and replied them on same. I got irritated and crash my mobile phone. As Amazon customer care executive replying means the Amazon's IT team is not very much expert to resolve the customer issues.

    I purchased this item from Amazon.com late November, 2018. It turned out to be defective. The instructions that came with the Vizio sound bar said that if there was a problem with the item, contact the manufacturer before trying to return the item. Over the next few months I worked with Vizio's tech support trying to resolve the issue. They said I needed to reload the firmware. I followed their instructions to the letter and it did not resolve the problem. I notified Vizio of this and then I received another email from their tech support telling me to do the exact same thing that the first email said to do. This happened 3 more times. I finally told them I was going to return the item. Then they said they'd send out a tech to look at it.

    When I told them I purchased the item from Amazon, Vizio said they could no longer help me. So, I contacted Amazon. Amazon said I could not return it because the 30 day window had passed. I even appealed the decision and Amazon still would not help me. Now I'm stuck with a $354 defective sound bar. Beware, AMAZON DOES NOT STAND BY THEIR CUSTOMERS!!! Because of this experience I will never order electronics from Amazon again. They may be good at selling shampoo and assorted lotions but that's it.

    Amazon flagged fraud on my account and then refuses to refund. I have been one of the longest UK Prime users. Amazon flagged fraud on my account 3 weeks ago. Purchases of 6 gift cards of £100 each, so £600 in total. Amazon knows these were fraudulent purchases. I have made constant calls and flagged this Amazon over the past 3 weeks. Every time I get "I am sorry to hear this, let me pass to relevant department who will call/email/deal with this..." 3 weeks later - still get the same reply and nothing has been resolved. They are happy to take fraudulent money and will not resolve the issue.

    Had two instances in 6 months where Amazon indicated items were delivered when they were not. Recently, Amazon seems less responsive to customer concerns and in some instances are dismissive. It is sad to think that Amazon's success may be leading to compromised service. I hope Amazon acknowledges the negative trend and takes steps to reverse it.

You can send it back and we will provide you a return shipping label." And they also say, "You get a full refund." It’s been over 1 month. All items have been delivered back to them. I just got $678 refund. Call 5 times already. All that says "Item is in return processing Center". Still didn’t get my refund. I already open chargeback claim on my credit card.

    I received a $50 gift card from my mom and when I tried to use it, the code was invalid. Then I called Amazon Support and they told me I had to return it to the store. My mom could not remember the store and did not have the receipt anymore and Amazon Support told me they would investigate and get back to me in 2-3 days. So I waited and they never got back to me. I called again and they said they didn’t get back to me because there was nothing they could do. I waited both times on the phone with them for 30 minutes or more.

    At the very least I would’ve liked a response saying that they couldn’t help, instead of me having to jump through hoops to get that answer. So now I don’t have a gift card and my mom is out $50. I am so displeased with the service. I loved Amazon because of the convenience and the products, but I would rather shop anywhere else at this point because most other places are able to accommodate issues like these. Being such a huge corporation you would think that they would be able to help their customers and make things right, but clearly they only care about making money and do not focus on their customers enough.

    I place an order as a birthday present to be delivered to its destination. When discovered, without being notified, the item was first returned en route from the courier, I contacted Amazon immediately via online chat and discovered it was damaged during shipping. I chuck it to bad luck. I worked with Amazon.com customer service and had the item ship again. I checked my order a few days later and found out that it was returned again. Contacted Amazon again and had the order redelivery again.

    A few days later, the order was returned again. I was confused at this point and had a long chat with customer service as what happened. They told me the item was actually not reordered at all due to their system not being able to process the order. In order to the item to ship again it needs to be a new order. I was really fed up at this point since was going to be a month late when I reorder. I called Amazon and I ask the customer service agent to place the order on my behalf since they have charged me already and I have all my information. I really just wanted accountability at this point since the product is delivered directly from Amazon LLC and not it's vendor.

    And of course, the agent told me that they couldn't do this for whatever reason beyond me. It was ridiculous. I told to just credited the refund back into my account and not my credit card so I don't have to wait for 7 days for the refund to processes. I got the credit 2 hours later and place the order again, contacted Amazon via online chat to get confirmation on the product is actual ordered and delivered this time. The customer service agent told me that they will get in contact with the shipping center to take "extra care" with my order. I tracked the shipping every day and everything seemed right this time. Then on 5th day, returned to shipper again. WHAT IS HAPPENING!!

    I called Amazon that day, then we conferenced with the courier DHL customer service agent who told me that they will investigate my shipping issue and get back to me within hours. I have not heard from DHL for a full day and decide to call. Their agent told me that there was no investigation order but a phone update noted in their logs. WHAT THE HECK!!!! WHAT PHONE UPDATED!!! DHL told me that what happen is that Amazon did not fill in the shipping label correctly. I asked DHL, "So how come this wasn't communicated back to Amazon." They told me that they simply couldn't do it for the amount of Amazon shipment they have to contend with.

    I was furious. I called Amazon and told them what DHL told me. I told them that this is beyond incredulous and ask them to redirect the order to another address since the order won't be received by the intended recipient at this point. I was them Amazon the ship to a new address which they told me that again that they couldn't process online and I would have to place a new order the item AGAIN. So they did the same thing as last time, processed the refund as a credit to my account again and told me that I would see it within the day. It took 2 hours last time and I have not seen my credit for well over 12 hours. At the time of this review.

    The positive: Amazon offers a variety of options in each department. The negative: Where do I begin? As an overseas buyer I've had issue after issue with Amazon. Issues include: 1. Goods not delivered. 2. Consistent late deliveries. 3. Lousy, completely inept customer service. 4. Lack of ownership when things go wrong. 5. Faulty goods delivered.

    Their general response seems to be:

    1. Insincere apologies (if they were sincere, they would pull up their socks and up their game).

    2. Upon insisting that there is some accountability (usually it means *only after* writing to the CEO), they offer Amazon credit.

Regardless of the fact that Amazon took money from my account and I could see clearly it STILL SHOWS FULFILLED BY AMAZON and then bailed on standing behind the product they offered on their site - now want me to pay shipping to return an item that is not what I ordered.

    Unlike every other online retailer that offers free shipping that takes longer, Amazon actually won't fulfill your order and ship it if it might come early. They actually punish consumers for not buying Amazon Prime. I placed a order on a Friday and just went with the 5 to 8 day free shipping without a Prime account. Fine whatever. I didn't need it right away and figured maybe it would come early like most things do. But then I went to tracking the next week on Tuesday and realized they had not even shipped it yet.

    I asked why and they said that I chose the 5 to 8 day shipping so they wouldn't even start the order because it would come to soon. But if I wanted to upgrade to Prime they would ship it right away and arrive in two days. I don't know about anyone else out there but when I pay for something that's not special order I expect it to ship in 24 to 48 hours at the latest. Not just to hold on to my order because it would arrive to soon. From the now on I'm just going to go to the store. I'm done with this shady online retailer.

    On May 14th I ordered two products. One came in on time, the other never arrived. It was due to arrive on the 17th. On the 17th I checked my order and it had disappeared without explanation. So on the 20th I called customer service and spoke to a helpful woman that informed me they were waiting for 'verification' from my bank and the bank was not responding. They also tell me an email was sent on the 16th. And that someone was to contact me within 24-48 hours with more information. I was informed email was the only possible communication available for such things.

    I call my bank and they inform me there was no indication or contact from Amazon and nothing showing for the price range. I then check my email only to find there was no email. I again call Amazon to update them and I spoke to a man that seemed incapable of listening. He repeated the same line over and over 'someone will contact you within 24-28 hours'.

    I decide to call later and hopefully get a better rep. Sadly, this did not happen as the next person I spoke to seemed to be cloned from the first and had the same line to repeat. I asked to at least verify that they had my email correct, which was apparently too hard for this rep to understand as well. Also I discovered my entire account was frozen. It's now been four days since I first heard 'someone will contact you within 24-48 hours', and 10 days since my order was placed and no one has contacted me. So I called back today and sounded as if I got the same rep as last time.

    This rep then proceeds to tell me they sent a second email on the 19th. When I reminded her that I have no email on the account She then instructed me I could add an email through the app. I was told my billing information didn't match. The same billing information that allowed the second item I purchased at the same time to be ordered and shipped. And all previous orders. Also, now, for the first time I was informed the order was cancelled on the 19th, the day before my first call. The conversation devolved into her repeating over and over that I could use the app to add an email, even when I was speaking about topics entirely unrelated to email.

    I requested a supervisor who, basically, was equally as clueless and useless, just with a bigger title. So 10 days after my order and I still have Zero answers as to why one product was sold and shipped and another had the wrong billing information. Why no one ever called me back. Why I wasn't informed about needing to add an email to my account until 10 days, and 2 emails, later. Why (and how) emails were sent to an account without an email address. How was my order cancelled on the 19th yet no one informed me of this on my next three calls. Now I have to attempt another dreaded call and hope I can get things figured out.

I only ask to put my items at my front door (MY FRONT DOOR), that way they can attempt to ring my door bell so that I can get my package or leave it there when I don't answer, but their drivers will leave my packages ANYWHERE they feel like it and then state that "package was handed directly to a resident," yet they left the package behind a flower pot in front of my garage door, when my front door is only a few steps away, and NEVER rang the door bell. LAZY LAZY LAZY.

    I don't know if it is new drivers, or bad logistics but this needs to stop. They won't let us cancel our Prime shipping or I would and just keep the streaming because this is getting worse each time. How do you increase the price of Prime, and the service goes down??

No one has ever contacted me. One rep though hinted, without confirming, that it was my negative review of the movie, "Black Panther" which triggered my banning when several people colluded to flag it as inappropriate.

I have ordered lots and lots of things and have never had delivery problems until they recently started using their own AMZL carrier in my area. I had a chat session this evening trying to resolve a delivery issue (carrier lied about attempting a delivery) and then asked if there was a way I could ask that my future orders not be delivered by AMZL. I was given an email address to write about this issue. So I wrote a long note, only to have it bounce because they don't monitor that address for incoming messages! So why did their representative give it to me? And there is no one to contact about that issue. Sigh, I've loved being an Amazon Prime customer but it seems times to look elsewhere.

    I've been an Amazon.com customer for several years now and we've been happy, however for awhile their Amazon was using a delivery carrier called OnTrac which was a nightmare. Items were delivered to who know where and took 2 weeks at times. Now it seems that Amazon has their own delivery service and it's a scary thing indeed. The drivers are in street clothes, unmarked cars and look like day labors or someone that 30 minutes prior to being near your front door were holding a cardboard sign begging for alcohol money. These individuals sometimes bring other people with them in their automobile. I witnessed one person get out of the delivery drivers car and scope out the items in my garage. Another delivery was past 9 pm on a Sunday. Amazon delivery service in my opinion is inviting potential crime to my front door.

    When the USPS or UPS delivered packages I was able to track my package and know where my package was. Some carriers even provided a text message that your package was delivered. Now all I get is that my package was delivered to a secured area. Well that package wasn't delivered to me, my front door or mail box so wherever the secured area was I had no idea. If Amazon is going to bring unmarked cars and strange people to my front door that I would cross a street to avoid then I'll take my business elsewhere.

    Amazon now sends you a bar code to make a return on prime that can only be done at a genuine UPS store, not a pack and ship. I had to run all over to make my return. As a USPS and UPS customer, in the past if I had to make a return they sent me the RMA, I printed the label and could drop USPS in my post box or drop at the pack and ship a few blocks away. Very simple process. Now I have to drive miles and stand in line for service which is very annoying. Think Amazon is getting too big and spoiling some of the great features that made them so successful.

    Wake up Amazon! Don't complicate what a great process you had going. I buy a lot on here. Sometimes because I have prime I buy stuff because I do not feel like running out to shop when I know I can have it in 2 days anyhow. I will no longer buy anything such as clothing, since the return process is no longer friendly. I was very careful to read the sizing reviews, but apparently the people giving them were not real accurate.

    I have been a happy Amazon customer for more than 15 years. Above all, Amazon seemed reliable and trustworthy. But as of April 2019 things have changed (my personal experience): Lots of mix-ups with shipping (wrong items, wrong sizes), fraudulent sellers (advertising misleading information), customer service clearly less professional (phone people, friendly but increasingly clueless), sketchy people making delivery in weird vehicles, and the return process has become a nightmare with QR codes and having to dredge to an Amazon return places. What is going on? Amazon in inner turmoil?

    I stopped ordering from Amazon but have found myself going back to them because of the quick shipping. A few months ago I ordered an item to help my recently disabled dog that was supposed to be shipped the next day. After a few days I checked the order and learned that it would be a few weeks. I would not have ordered if I knew that. The same thing just happened again. I ordered from Amazon because I needed the item right away and it was supposed to arrive today. It hasn't come and I just looked at the order and now it says it will arrive in 3 weeks. What is up with this? These are the things that remind me why I left in the first place.

    Don’t order anything large and expensive. I spent $260 on a home gym. I only received roughly half the parts. After months of back and forth, they approved a return, at my expense. Because of the weight, that would have cost more then I paid in the first place.

    Before my rant, I want to say I love all things Amazon, I am and will stay a loyal consumer in spite of my current experiences. About a month ago, my account was compromised, I thought it was handled until I tried to log into my account to find it was temporarily disabled.. Go Amazon security!!! Well it is still disabled, 5 weeks later. I have spoke with at least 6 different reps. Finally spoke with a Jarrett ** who knew what he was doing. Needless to say I was unable to answer security questions, account still closed. After an hour and 10 minutes, we discussed opening new account. Can’t use my email. Already in use.

    I am now becoming upset, they will not open my account or refund my gift card $$ as I was told is a federal law. He refused to connect me with someone that could help, I told him I could wait, he replied, "There is nothing more I can do for you so I am going to disconnect" and he did. I totally get the security issue. But what bad business. He could clearly see my account on his end. Why not let me open new account and refund the gift card??? Super sad customer. ☹️☹️

    Today is May 14, 2019 and, supposedly, Amazon has implemented a new push to get items to us in one day. The problem is, items are not always delivered when advertised, which is a huge problem in this day of porch pirates stealing items. If I schedule a delivery, I make sure I will be home that day. If Amazon doesn't deliver that day, as scheduled, that means I have to take time off or adjust my schedule so that I'm home on their new delivery date.

    I'd prefer if Amazon was just more accurate and honest about the day they say my deliveries are coming. Right now, I have to stay at home today to receive an item that was scheduled for delivery YESTERDAY. So that makes two days in a row I have to make sure I'm at home. I just called Amazon to complain about this and was told that their deliveries can't be guaranteed and that I should try using Amazon Lockers. Not practical for larger deliveries and very inconvenient. So much for one day or even scheduled deliveries...

    Amazon used to do a great job. Now they have sold out to the independent drivers I guess. late deliveries, packages apparently thrown out on front lawn, smelling like smoke. Crapy attitudes. One lady barely put out her cigarette before ** at my wife about the inability to find the business address on her business door. Nobody else has an issue. I looked outside and down the street and this stellar delivery person had just left a bunch of the boxes on the sidewalk outside the door of the business.... How stupid do you have to be? They need to stop this or do something different.

    I ordered this swimsuit at $14 to be fulfilled by HOLIPICK and shipped via "PRIME" because it was advertised as 1 day Prime shipping, and clearly a great price. I saw that the payment was debited the evening it was ordered, and received notification that it was shipped the next day. I had no reason to believe that things had gone awry or that it would not arrive by the estimated 1-2 days shipment date advertised. It was not until it did not show up that I began to question things.

    I went back to review my shipping confirmation email and realized that it was showing an expected arrival date anywhere b/t 3-6 weeks out. I needed it within the week. I called Amazon to attempt to rectify the situation only to be told that their system showed it was purchased through a 3rd party and there was nothing that they could about the time frame.

    I advised that although their system was reflecting a 3rd party that was not accurate. I have my account set to always use PRIME shipping, so I'm not sure how a 3rd party shipper got involved. They could not explain this either. Basically, told me it was not possible. They also could not explain why on my end it appeared I was ordering something being fulfilled by Amazon while on their end it was showing a 3rd party. They also could not explain why if it was not the "same" item I ordered, when even if I clicked the link from my account order history to "buy again" it was taking me to the link showing the Amazon as the party fullfilling the shipment.

    Oh, and peeps... this item that wasn't the "same item" had all of the exact reviews and questions that were on the ITEM that they say was the ITEM I ordered. I think we can all agree that ALLOWING THE SAME REVIEW ON ITEMS - EVEN WHEN SOLD/FULFILLED BY DIFFERENT SELLERS IS EXTREMELY MISLEADING!!! And a Major FAIL on Amazon's part.

    They were NOT willing to do anything but provide a refund of the $15 that was spent on the item, and ALLOW me to purchase the another at the price of $26.99-meaning I would have to pay $12-$13 more now than what was initially paid FOR THE "SAME" ITEM - all to have it shipped by AMAZON PRIME as it was originally purchased! I feel this is not an acceptable solution to the problem. I now trust nothing or any reviews left on this site. VERY, VERY displeased!!!

    I am not an Amazon Prime customer. A neighbor on another street is. I have consistently received his packages delivered to my home since before Christmas 2018 (I guess that when he got Prime). My address is clearly marked at the end of my driveway. However since the drivers only use GPS and apparently not their own eyes, my neighbor's items are delivered even though it is a completely different address. On GPS, the streets overlap and the screen must be expanded to show they are separate roads.

    I called Amazon yesterday (again) to complain of misdirected delivery and the phone rep said to "dispose of the package, or you can donate it." I was shocked and asked her to repeat that. She said the item can be thrown away. I guess the expectation is that the buyer will wait a few days, not get his package and have to call to see what happened to it and they'll resend it? What an unbelievably shabby way to do business. I've been an Amazon customer off and on but am really rethinking if I want to continue giving them my business in any manner. Shameful way to do business.

    Amazon leaves my packages in the open lobby of another building in my apartment complex. They consider it a "mail room" which it is not, and packages have been stolen from there. I am unable to pick up my packages from this location. Complaints to Amazon result in apologies but no improvement in service. I consider the problem to be laziness on the part of the delivery personnel. My apartment is not difficult to find.

    This is the 10th day that I have been waiting for my two packages from Amazon. I had just cancelled my Amazon Prime, and then that same day put in an order. This was 10 days ago, tomorrow. One was not on its way, and the other one keeps getting extended. These are just regular products, you can get many other places. So it isn't as if they were not in stock. I have called four or five times. The last time, today, she hung up on me. Probably because I was annoyed. This is not the company people seem to think it is. I feel the service has gone down a lot. I will be doing my orders where I use to.

    I just feel Amazon has gotten too big for itself to control or maintain any type of integrity. I am a prime member and have been for some time. I pay monthly. I dont order a lot of stuff but I would say Ive been let down by at least half of the orders Ive gotten. From day of delivery not happening or the package just doesnt show up. I call and have to talk to sometimes I kid you not 10+ people transferring me from one person to the next. To no avail. No one cares. There is no sense of urgency. I am one person that has gone through this today alone. At least half of my orders have ended in disappointment in all the time I have been a member...

    Think of how many people get wronged everyday by Amazon and the only thing they offer is to give you your money back. Give you some promo which turns out to be nonsense. Or offer an excuse or solution that later turns out by yet another person to be untrue and they actually say, "I dont know why they would have said that" and the circle continues. Instead of that nonsense that doesnt fix the problem. Fix the problem- YOUR EMPLOYEES!! They are all on different pages. Train the employees that have to run the company. With the same play book so everyone has the same training and knowledge they need to deal effectively with the customers. Amazon is out of control!! No accountability and no integrity. It has to get better.

    I bought a product Airtel 4g wifi hotspot, they have the date for the delivery that 4-8 May. But they still don't deliver it and asking to look into this for two days again and again. I have suffered a lot from their worst service or seller response. And also am shocked of their service and how they handle their seller, god knows. Even they don't have any procedure to select another seller to get delivery on time. They just wait for the seller to deliver on their own. I am very much upset of Amazon service and thus writing this review. They don't care about you money, value and time at last. They must follow a scripted procedure to solve any problem and makes you fool out of it. So it's better to trust of your own country oriented businesses rather than these online selling freaks.

    Today I noticed on my credit card statement two charges for Amazon video. Since I have never signed up for, nor watched an Amazon video, I was concerned about why I was being charged for this. When I called Amazon and explained the situation, they said they were able to see the person’s account who was using my credit card. They asked me to guess who it might be. I gave my husband’s name but they said it wasn’t him. I explained that nobody else has access to my credit cards or my Amazon account.

    Even though they could see who was fraudulently using my credit card, they refused to give me that person’s name claiming it was due to “security reasons“ and “protecting that person‘s privacy”. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, they transferred me to some senior account person and told me that was the highest person I could speak to. That person ultimately told me the same thing. It appears Amazon is supporting credit card fraud for people who are using stolen credit cards to purchase their goods and services.

    So, I have been a Prime Member for like 6 years now. I had a student membership, and until last year, I was still utilizing that. I am no longer taking classes, but Amazon charged my account without A.) notifying me of the increase in my Prime membership fees, and B.) without notifying me they would be charging my card. $99 for Prime membership was already expensive - to PAY to buy things?! When your organization doesn't even PAY TAXES in my country?! But $128?! And I was told the additional $10, (Prime membership is apparently $119.00 currently), is FOR TAXES?! That's awfully BOLD.

    Walmart offers the same service, often with LOWER prices. There are SO many companies that are online nowadays and they DON'T charge you to do business with them. I'm over it, Amazon. You've gotten too big for your britches. I cancelled my Prime, Prime Pantry, Audible, Amazon Music - ALL OF IT. I can't believe this is how you do business. After 6 years, (and I expect this is a growing trend you're noticing), I'm over you. I'll spend my monies elsewhere.
