    I entered my checking acct information (routing number, checking acc number to pay for 3 items ordered. 5 days later (and I'm a Prime Member) Amazon's email informed me the order was canceled. Instructed to go to my Amazon Account and check the information regarding my checking account, making corrections if needed. Went to my acct. -- there is NO INFORMATION except my name, address and the last two numbers of the checking account. So--couldn't determine if an error was made or if Amazon made an error. I was on the phone for 40 minutes with a rep who couldn't describe my issue regarding the Checking Acct information that isn't available for me to check. They have no information, no one could explain the issue or provide a solution. They were not able to understand the issue or provide any assistance. Repetitive about how credit cards and bank accounts are handled. Duh!

    Tracking my package delivery I found that my package had been delivered. There was even a picture of my package on a staircase. The staircase wasn't mine. I immediately went into the neighborhood to try to find my package. Luckily I found my package on the doorstep of the house across the street. The house is vacant with a for sale sign on it. Hey Amazon hire drivers that can read numbers.

    Beware! Even though my account settings clearly state that MY credit card is to be charged for my Prime Membership, my daughter made a purchase THREE months ago on my account and they "randomly chose" her card to charge for the membership fee. When I called to inquire about this, I was told that by using a card for any purchase, that card is subject to be used for future charges. WTH? What is the point of designating a card to be used for payments, if they are going to pick whatever card they want to charge?

    The explanation I got from "Customer Service" was that it's in their "guidelines for use" policy. Good luck trying to locate whatever document that is, I haven't been able to yet. This policy makes no sense and, honestly, it doesn't seem to be either a reasonable or normal practice. Who does business like that? I feel like Amazon has gotten too big to remember anything about Customer Care and I will take my business elsewhere.

    Even with two factor authentication turned on my Amazon account was hacked and the primary address was changed to one ending in “inbox.ru”. I had to notify Amazon and they responded in two days with a canned response that the breach happened away from their systems (basically telling me it was taken by a key logged or something I did). This was definitely not the case because I received over a dozen emails of the individual trying to get a code before he was successful (I suspect by calling into support since they don’t use any secure information to identify you). Amazon offered no insight on how they made that determination not that they took my situation seriously at all. I cannot use the Echo nor can I use my primary email for anything Amazon related even a week later.

    Beware before you store financial data in your account wallet or even personally identifiable data since someone with even a small amount of information can call in and take over your account. Amazon has done nothing to demonstrate that they take protecting my data seriously or adhere to any of the global data privacy laws that one would expect of a global retailer.

    The Add-on program allows Amazon to offer low-priced items that would be cost-prohibitive to ship on their own, since they have few "brick and mortar" stores of their own to which they could deliver for customer pickup. These "add on" items ship with qualifying orders accumulating over $25. In many cases, this means you MUST accumulate purchases totaling $25 or more. Or else you cannot order the item you want. This does not apply to all Amazon orders...just the ones that are "Add on". So instead of buying stuff I don't need at the moment to aggregate $25, I went to WalMart online and purchased the same item... With NO shipping costs as I can pick up the items at my local store with no shipping charge... At a lower price to boot! WalMart is going to EAT AMAZON up! (Investors take notice.)

    Since Amazon uses various delivery systems, it's impossible to communicate delivery preferences. I've had multiple items either returned to sender or send to (in the case of UPS deliveries) other places to pick up because a driver subjectively felt it was unsafe to leave a package at my apartment door... 3 flights up, out of sight from anyone other than my one 3rd floor neighbor. I've filled out as much information as is possible on the Amazon app and website letting them know that all deliveries are safe to leave there, but it appears they neither have the capacity to communicate that with every order, or they just won't.

    I had ordered in January some of Amazon's rechargeable batteries. They destroyed a charger and 3 of the lights I was using them in as they totally disintegrated in the charger and the lights. I took pictures of the batteries, the charger and the end of the light. They were installed in showing a tip of one of the batteries which I couldn't even get the battery out. Sent it 3 times with no response other than they'd get hold of me within 6 hours. Finally, a call to them in which they started to tell me the batteries were old and I say really, 6 months. Ultimately no resolution so I'm backing away from Amazon and going to purchase more from Walmart as they are definitely starting to compete.

    Amazon is not the first website that I would order an item from. Amazon has a tendency to deliver packages days after it was scheduled for delivery. Sometimes they don’t even ship your package until the day that it was supposed to be delivered to you. If it’s an important item that you drastically need in a hurry I suggest shopping somewhere else. They are sometimes very unreliable, their customer service can use some improvement, and their delivery times are usually unpredictable to say the least.

    I ordered lights to decorate my dorm room off of Amazon and I never received my order from them. When I first ordered it they told me that it would come within 4 to 5 business days: however, that was not the case. My lights did not ship until the 4th day of me waiting for them. I waited a couple days to see if my package would come. After about three days of not receiving my “shipped” package I decided that it was time to take matters into my own hands. I first called the delivery company that was supposed to drop off my package and they said that they never got a package for my address or name. I then decided to email Amazon and they replied back saying that my item was shipped to the postal service that would be delivering it. Although, they said that my items were shipped I still did not receive them days later so I decided to call the company to and find out why.

    The first time I gave them a call I was on hold for at least 30 minutes waiting to talk to a representative. After being on hold for a significant amount of time, I was told that there were no available representatives to talk to at that time and that I should call the next day. The next day when I called I was on hold for a while but I finally got to talk to someone about my order. I was told that my order had been sent back because of an unknown error. I never got an email or notification saying that the order that I have been waiting on for weeks was sent back. When I asked why my order got sent back the representative told me that she was not sure why but sometimes it just happens.

    When I asked for my money she told me that I had to email Amazon or go to the website and click on “about refunds” and ask back for my money there. So I emailed Amazon and asked them for a refund due to the fact that my package got canceled but I never got my money back. The next day they emailed me and said they would refund me my money back within 24 hours of my initial email. I waited for the money but it never went back into my account so I emailed them again and this time they didn’t respond until days later saying that, once again, they would send my money back to me.

    After not receiving my money a second time I just decided not to worry about it and just decided to be cautious of where and what I buy online. Next time I know not to rely on Amazon so much for my online shopping. Next time I know to be cautious and what sites I shop on. If you do decide to shop on Amazon just be mindful of what you get and who the seller is that you are getting the product from.

    Amazon used to be one of my favorite places to shop. It had everything I needed, conveniently ready to go, often for far cheaper than competitors. Recently though, this seems to be the case less and less. Paying for prime, (which is NOT cheap), my prime 'privileges' seem to mean less and less every day. I'm not sure Amazon even gives an entire month before they close the return window...something I am PAYING for by the way with Prime, and that window has come up more and more often as just about anyone can sell on Amazon, with no quality checks or references, and I have gotten all kinds of crap that is totally incorrectly described, doesn't work, is in bad condition, you name it. This used to be a one-off experience, but now it seems to be the norm. I am so fed up with this company.

    I was increasingly irritated by their lack of ethics, but now even as a customer, I really feel like I'm not even getting my money's worth. There are so many other companies out there now that offer things like free-shipping, it's not really such an incentive for me to use Amazon for this reason anymore. Additionally, although they have many choices, it seems like the quality decreases more and more. There are many choices...of cheap crap! I feel like, as someone who actually wants my money to be used in meaningful ways, I am actually doing myself a DISSERVICE by continuing with this horrible company.

    All my reasons for using it are gone: it is NOT a better value, it is NOT convenient for customers, it is NOT reliable when it comes to product description or quality. Several of my orders have been totally lost, or incredibly delayed, or even come WAY too early, before I was even at the proper spot, which has caused all kinds of issues. Trying to deal with customer service is on par with a trip to the dentist. I'm appalled, and confused as to why this company still seems to be in business, when I know I am not the only one who is getting tired of the less than acceptable experience that seems to be the staple from them these days. My advice to any sane consumer, is stay AWAY from Amazon!

    I ordered from an ink company called JARBO in December 2016. Since then they've been contacting me asking me to change my 1 star review in exchange for refunds, cash bribes and replacements. I've contacted Amazon about this on multiple occasions. Each time they say that they'll shut down the company, they'll stop the emails and so on. It's been two years and nothing has stopped. On the last instance they offered me 7 pounds credit for all the time wasted contacting them (again FOR NEARLY TWO YEARS). But more worrying still is that they quoted their usual rubbish back at me. I very much doubt that they'll do anything to JARBO. And the dishonest reviews will continue by people who HAVE accepted the bribes. Of course, this will only result in other innocent customers believing these reviews and buying bad products. Amazon doesn't care. They haven't since December 2016.

    I received Bluetooth wireless earbuds, (brand Parihy) and a warranty through Amazon. Three months later, the earbuds no longer worked. I contacted the warranty company and spent an hour and a half to get through the claim process only to be told that they could not help me since the product was still under the manufacturers' warranty and I would need to contact them to repair or replace the product.

    I was unable to locate any information for Parihy. The only link for this company was to AMAZON. I spent 55 minutes on the phone with a customer service representative who advised that I could send the product back and receive a refund of 20% less than the purchase price or they will issue a one time

    goodwill credit of $20.00 to purchase the charging case only for the product with the 'hope' that this will rectify the issue since the complete original product is no longer available.

    To the customer service representative's credit, she did attempt to offer a replacement of another Parihy product which I declined as they did not meet the same specifications of the original product which actually worked great, until they didn't. Apparently, they had a three month expiration date. I also see that the replacement product that I was offered has been rated as a 'FAIL' by REVIEW META. Lesson learned: Buyer beware...when ordering electronics from AMAZON.

    I have been a customer of Amazon's for many years; I am also a Prime member as well. In the last year I have experienced severe delays, in shipments, from the OnTrac carrier that they are now using. I have complained to OnTrac and to Amazon, repeatedly about this severe issue. OnTrac always tells me that they are having an issue with the driver, or that they don't know where the shipment is. They tell me that they will call me back and they never do. Amazon told me they would use another carrier and they used USPS one, or two times and then they reverted back to using OnTrac again. They continually tell me, "There is nothing that we can do." Over and over and over and over again I get told that OnTrac is taking care of the problem and yet they never do. I get told that Amazon has no control over their carriers. I get told that there is NO solution at all.

    So, the bottom line is that I am a Prime member who is paying for a 1-2 day delivery guarantee and I am continually receiving my shipments days, to a week late. And still I am repeatedly told that there is NOTHING that Amazon can do about it. OnTrac is a carrier that does not deliver shipments on time and continually has problems with their drivers/deliveries, etc. and therefore I do not want Amazon to use them to deliver my Prime deliveries to me, because they never get here on time. It should be pretty simple for Amazon to find a solution for me, but they do not care to do that.

    I am beyond frustrated and disgusted at the total lack of concern for my continual problem with OnTrac and Amazon. Amazon used to have amazing customer service, but now it seems that they have gotten so big that they find it a totally normal response to say to a long-term customer, that there is nothing that they can do about the problem at hand. They can take my money for Prime to deliver my shipments in 1-2 days and they can contract with a sub-par carrier to deliver my shipments to me late and then do NOTHING about it... repeatedly???

When I opened the box, I could immediately see that the mouse was used, even though the product description and invoice listed it as new. There were no instructions, the seals on the packaging were broken, and there were scuff marks on the buttons. When I called customer service to arrange a refund, I also stated that I wanted to file a formal complaint, since I felt passing a used product as new was deceptive.

Over the past 30 plus days though I can no longer make that claim. Order after order is delayed by days or even weeks now. My last order has been a nightmare and Amazon has reordered this item for me a 3rd time now! This item was a calculator I needed over a week ago that was sold and delivered by Amazon Prime.

    I think they may have switch to an internal delivery service to save money. If that's the case, I can say confidently that this is the most inept carrier service I have ever come across. Repeated delays in shipping lead times, items not showing up when expect, or at all. Apparently the first package was reported destroyed by the carrier when it was out for delivery.

I was told my account could not be found. The rep was unable to provide me with much info and I was told I would get an email on resetting my password. August 9th, no email, I call again. This time I am able to glean more info. There have been purchases made which I have not made. There has also been a two step verification set up on this account which I have not done. So the hackers were able to steal my account and secure it! With this information, I closed all my payment accounts associated with Amazon. As I found out this was after they racked up $700 against my Amazon store card.

    I called on 8/13, 8/15, 8/27, 8/29, 9/3. All with no resolve to my account. On my last call I ended up speaking to two supervisors. Mid call on both they suddenly could not hear me. Nothing has been resolved. I have lost hundreds of videos and Kindle books. I don't know where else to go to assure my old account can be closed permanently since they do not believe me that I did not set up the authentication procedure.

    My wife has an account with Amazon.com. I don't need an account, as she shares hers with me. My complaint is that they do not care about where they put our deliveries. My concern is that if they just leave the package at the top of the stairs, (as they ALWAYS do) everyone will assume: A: We are not home and therefore an open place to rob. or B: They see the package there (we live in a senior mobile home park) and figure it's easy pickings for them to take. Now we've had packages stolen that were left for us by FedEx and other delivery services before, so I'm not just some fussbudget. We contacted those services and told them to leave the stuff in a big, closed wicker basket on our porch. They all comply and nothing has been stolen since.

    My wife and I have called Crapazon over 8 times and asked them to ring the bell first, and if no answer, to put it in the basket. NOT ONCE have their drivers done this. They don't ring the bell. They just throw the damned thing on the porch. I just don't get it! Do these people care or do they have so much business that if they lose a customer here and there it doesn't matter. Does anyone know why they don't care? Anyways, thanks for at least letting me vent this off. We'll probably not use these morons anymore after all this BS anyway.

    Amazon is large enough to not care about customer service. Lately, it's all gotten worse & we as business owners are starting to feel the pain of poor service or not good quality of goods. They don't care if they lose business owners due to poor shipping services or sellers on their site scamming customers. For every one they lose, they just gain another. They also don't improve their mobile app from being slow, encountering errors, can't add to cart, etc. Not to mention it's not Free 2 day shipping anymore. In addition, their Amazon Prime Membership perks including music & video is NOT worth the money. Look elsewhere. Too much competition nowadays.

    I wanted to buy some new headphones so I wrote a note on my phone with some specs of what was needed. This is the only place where this information was written down, I never searched anywhere online and I did not have a conversation with anyone about it. A few days later, I receive an email from Amazon with a link to their site and a list of all the headphones which met these specs! The email was sent to my address which does not have an Amazon account associated with it. The address is, however, connected to my phone. And yes it was definitely a link to the real Amazon website.

    Whenever I tried to contact Amazon they just send me template emails saying they cannot help as I do not have an account with them. Very frustrating and what's more, they did not deny that they had tracked my phone. It is scary that nothing we do is private anymore. I never gave consent from Amazon or any company to behave that way and now I won't be using them again as I do not want to fund this unethical and disturbing behavior.

    I submitted my review about a knockoff PopSocket that Amazon sent and they refused to post my review. They provide a generic reasoning that my review didn’t follow their guidelines. I think they’re trying to silence consumers. Beware of their reviews cause they definitely pick and choose what they post. So If you’re buying a PopSocket from Amazon, beware. They could be sending you a knockoff even though they show pictures of the official item. Here’s the original review on the black PopSocket I purchased:

    "I ordered what I thought would be an official PopSocket, but I got a knockoff. I did not get what was pictured. I included pictures of the black PopSocket I ordered on Amazon compared to an official PopSocket I bought from a store. The Amazon black PopSocket came in a ziplock bag. When collapsed, the knockoff is much thicker than the real PopSocket. Also the base of the knockoff is shiny without any branding, which is not the same as an official PopSocket that has a matte finish and it’s branding. The seller of the knockoff is “Sold By: asgvbddfher.” If you’re looking for the real thing, be wary of this seller.

    Apparently Amazon has started using Amazon Logistics drivers, which I assume are Amazon employees, to deliver packages rather than UPS, FedEx, or USPS. I had two orders that were to be delivered on the same day to two different addresses. BOTH packages were too big to fit inside a mailbox & were left propped up (one against the mailbox post & one against a private drive sign) right beside the street. Anyone could have stolen the packages. When I found out about the first package being left propped up against the mailbox post at the street, I immediately called Amazon to complain and express my concern about the second package I was expecting that was still in transit.

    Amazon Customer Service added delivery instructions for the second package to be brought to the house & not left at the street. The tracking information for the first package (that was left propped up against a mailbox post) indicated the package was delivered to a "secure location", which was a lie. The tracking information for the second package (that had instructions added to deliver the package to the house) indicated the package was delivered per instructions, which was another lie (these packages were delivered by the same driver).

    I have called Amazon Customer Service to complain again, but felt I needed to post the feedback publicly to make other buyers aware that the logistics delivery drivers, or at least the one that delivered both of my packages, do not follow specific delivery instructions and leave packages propped up by the street instead of delivering to the residence. I've never had this problem with packages shipped via UPS, USPS, or FedEx.

    I ordered a phone off of Amazon on August 28 and it was expected to be delivered on August 31 by 9PM, alright cool. The day of the delivery which was yesterday I started watching the map tracker around 5PM, said there was 81 stops on the way to my address. The stupid part was that map tracker showed the van literally down the street from me. I watched and watched how the van went further and further away from me. By around 8PM it finally said 4 stops away and by 9PM it said my package wasn't going to be delivered that day. Are you serious??? I watched this person go from a street down from me to nowhere near me. I watched this person driving go back and forth to places they already delivered packages to.

    Now current day, I started watching the map tracker at 10 AM and it's now 3:20PM and I've watched this driver go by my house several times and not going down my street. Once again I've watched this person go to one location then drive to another then go back to the previous location. This person is driving in a U and avoiding the middle which is my house. It's like they don't have a specific route to follow, they just drive wherever.

Some things do really get delivered in 2 days, but most of the time, when I order parts (and yes, I did order on my Prime acct), they come in 4-5 days which is no faster than eBay. In fact, the promised Sunday delivery has NEVER been Sunday - in fact, if I order on Friday and expect delivery on Sunday - normally, the item isn't even shipped until Monday! (or Saturday at best).

    1 week ago had same issue as tonight. Driver went to community leasing office and because office was closed at 7pm left with package and updated status to unable to deliver. Tonight driver called me and said he couldn't enter building so he can't bring package then hung up on me when I told him the only area in the entire complex that is locked is the office being that it was after 7pm. I told him all he had to do was look for my apt number on outside of building get out of car, come upstairs and find apt number on door. He did not, he left and update status that he could not enter building. This is an open complex.

    There are no gate, locks or codes anywhere except on our unit (apt) doors of course. Nowhere else. I have been a customer of Amazon for so long and have never experience this kind of inconvenience, and 2 weeks in a row with a driver that refuse to deliver packages to door and would leave with package because community leasing office is closed and it's easier for them to just leave packages there. I don't live in the leasing office, and I EXPECTED same day delivery with both orders. Then when I called customer service, there is no way for them to get in contact with their drivers.

    Even after explaining to rep what happened and there are no locks or codes to enter building, it's as simple as walking up the stairs and knocking on the door, they still sent me email stating driver couldn't get into buIlding and I must provide code or delivery instructions for successful delivery.

    I've been an Amazon Prime member for some time now. Within the past 6 months most notably, they have completely failed to uphold their services stated in the membership details for two day shipping. More and more orders started coming late, sometimes a day, sometimes a few, sometimes a week or more, some were never delivered at all. I warn you now - DO NOT EVER PURCHASE A PRIME MEMBERSHIP WITH THE IDEA THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE THE TWO DAY SHIPPING THEY PROMISE. On their website, it only lists that there may be delays if an item is out of stock, or if you order a large quantity. The items I have problems with never are.

    When you bring this up to their customer service, they will say "The two day shipping is only relating to the time in transit" When you tell them you've always gotten it in two days up until this point, and nowhere on the website does it say they can take however long they like to process the order. They'll say "It says on the website that there could be potential delays for the item" when that doesn't apply.

    When you tell them that, they will say "well it needed to come from a different warehouse" - an excuse completely illogical, as it coming from a different warehouse doesn't suddenly mean they need to wait around on the order to ship it out. It should still take only two days in transit, right? When you say that, they'll say "well it can take up to 3 days to process an order." When you refute that line of lies, and point out nowhere on the website does it say that, they'll start the circular argument all over anew. After pointing this all out relentlessly to another of their "customer service" employees, they sent me this:

    "Please understand that even when the item is in stock there are times when the fulfillment center (the one near to your zip code from where the item was planned to ship) would not have it in stock. Because of which it needs to be supplied from a different fulfillment center which does take. There are multiple reasons why an item might be delayed, however, please note that two-day shipping doesn't mean that you place the order and it gets delivered in two days but it exactly takes two days to delivery after it ships out.

    I realize you're upset, and I regret we've been unable to address your concerns to your satisfaction. However, we'll not be able to offer any additional insight or action on these matters, and any further inquiries on this matter will not receive a response." And they expect me to keep paying for a membership, WHICH THEY JUST INCREASED THE PRICE OF? No, I will not. Once this membership is up, the Amazon card I opened is getting cut up and thrown in the trash, and they will not have my money for their fraudulent business again.

Inevitably when I call Amazon, I'm given a "so sorry" by a rep who doesn't seem to understand the concept of "guaranteed."

    Even worse, they frequently admit that Amazon is well aware that the companies and independent contractors they hire for deliveries are unreliable. If that's the case, then why do they continue to advertise "guaranteed" delivery date? Perhaps the most egregious is the inducement of next day delivery if one purchases a minimum of $35 in merchandise. When I've needed something quickly, I have bought unnecessary products just to meet the minimum so I can get my order the next day. But then the order doesn't arrive as promised, and when it finally does (IF it does), I'm stuck with stuff I don't need and something I needed sooner. Amazon refuses to acknowledge that it is using a bait and switch tactic, or that their failure to meet the guaranteed delivery date is a breach of contract with the consumer.

    One cannot make a promise meant to induce another to enter into a contract, and then break the promise and still demand the party who has not received the benefit of the bargain must still pay the full price for a product/service that was not delivered according to the terms of that contract. Amazon breaches contracts with its consumer all day every day. Why is nobody filing a class action? There are true damages here - both in cold hard cash (all those items arriving too late for the consumer's intended purpose, forcing them to go out and pay more for the same item even while the first charge for the item not received is on their card), and in lost time and distress. I am canceling my prime membership and have stopped shopping at Whole Foods. Amazon has surpassed Walmart in terms of terrible service and corporate greed.

    Once again, I'm giving Amazon a 5-star experience, this time due to its excellence in customer care, even on a Sunday afternoon. When I had an issue with a local UPS store while trying to print a return shipping label for an item I purchased from Amazon, I contacted the customer care department on the Amazon shopping website in order to have them mail the return shipping documentation to my home. The deadline to return my item was very near so I was in a bit of a panic to get a return label asap - my printer refused to print, the UPS computer and printer were not cooperating, and to get the proper documentation mailed to my home was my last hope... Until I chatted online with an Amazon.com customer care representative.

    The CSR I chatted online with was patient while I explained every detail of my frustrating dilemma. Not only did the CSR listen to every word I wrote in chat (I know this because he addressed each struggle), he reassured me and told me I could expect a UPS driver to come to my home the next business day to pick up my return package and that I would not have to print any return shipment documentation - it was going to be handled by Amazon and UPS, free of charge. As a former Customer Service Specialist for a large corporation in Los Angeles, I and my workgroup won awards for excellence in customer satisfaction. Based on that, my 5-star rating here should have some value.

    Shopping online has become not just a luxury for me, but a necessity due to my disability. I no longer have the ability to stroll through stores, browsing the shelves for what I need or to be inspired by what I see there. The Amazon Prime shopping app (both on my phone and on my laptop) has afforded me the opportunity to look at different products I need, check prices on different brands, and read reviews by customers who have purchased and used the products I'm interested in purchasing. It also delivers what I order in a very timely manner, and since I've become a Prime member, my deliveries are free, within a few days of placing and paying for my orders.

    Since the deliveries arrive via UPS, my phone is alerted with a text message telling me my packages have been delivered to my doorstep. Anytime, if ever, I need to return something, Amazon.com sends a return shipping label to my email which I can easily print, and drop my package off at the UPS store only a few blocks from my home. I can also choose to have a UPS driver pick up the return package from my home so I don't even have to leave the house. (Another option Amazon gives me is to mail a return shipping label to my house for just $1, in the event that I am unable to get my EPSON printer to function properly... See my other review!)

    I had a minor issue with getting a return shipping label printed at the local UPS store, so I contacted Amazon customer support and chatted with one of their CSRs online. My issue was resolved beyond my expectations. I've never been happier with online shopping, in all regards. Overall, I would highly recommend Amazon Prime to anyone - not just those who are homebound like myself.

    I just spend 45 minutes trying to order a simple hair barrette. I wanted to add a few items to get free shipping. Oh my. Many, many things I selected were "reserved for Prime Members only". Many others required that I buy a zillion of the item. I don't really want that many at a time. So on I slogged, putting things in the basket, taking them out. Searching for others that met this narrow window of acceptance. Finally my patience gave out and now I am venting my frustration here. I won't attempt Amazon anymore. There are too many other websites that don't make it so hard to order items. I enjoy shopping, not this obstacle course.

    Since signing up for Prime, my experience with Amazon has become less dependable. Not only have I received product which was not as described, but I am repeatedly receiving product past the promised arrival date. I complained to them recently about it & was told they cannot always guarantee shipment delivery - well, why not since this is what I’m paying for??! I would understand if this occurred once, but it now seems to be routine. Also, I recently received a charge on my card for Amazon for which I have no backup or record. I went into my account online & found no such order.

    I contacted Customer services for an explanation. The person asked for a screenshot of the charge in my bill. Once I sent that, I was told she couldn’t help me; I have to wait for a response in 24 hours. I know CS can access my account so I asked why she couldn’t do that & give me an explanation, or credit me for the incorrect charge. She then scolded me & told me I should do as she told me to do! I objected & so she passed me off to someone else, who said he would help me, and eventually told me the same. Well, it’s been over 24 hours, still no explanation, or issued credit. In the past, I have extremely pleasant & helpful experiences with their CS staff.

    Amazon purchases are increasingly arriving late after date promised. Even after paying extra to ensure it arrives on time. In the latest incident I needed a part for my motorcycle and was going to be fixing it this weekend so I could ride to work next week. I could have gotten this part much cheaper from another source. Amazon claimed to deliver it by Friday with local express shipping whatever that means. I paid extra for the shipping method expecting to have my part on time.

    It didn't show up and Amazon just wants to pass the buck to the seller and the shipping company. What is more frustrating is that they managed to get my part from Canada East coast out to Seattle in 24 hours yet the part has been sitting in Seattle now for 21 hours. Seattle is only 2 hours drive from my address. The tracking information just says my package is late and gives a new date range for arrival. What is that?!! Keep tracking my package and keep it moving. I better get a refund for the shipping cost. Amazon, you are losing loyal customers over this delivery failure garbage.

Why they charge you if is not a sure thing that you can sell on Amazon? They can charge after verification.

    After reading At Night She Cries While He Rides His Steed The First Ever Romance Novel For Dudes I couldn’t wait for the sequel When Darkness Falls He Doesn’t Catch It. I preordered it in April from Amazon because they were supposed to deliver it the day it was released. The day after it was supposed to arrive I went to my account to see if it was delivered to my PO Box. It hadn’t even shipped. Amazon locked me out of my account when I tried to figure out why. When I finally got back in it said the book was out of stock and they didn’t know when or if it was going to be back in stock.

    I spent the next 2 hours on the phone with Amazon trying to figure out what happened. The first person I spoke to, Panjeen (I’m guessing at the spelling), the super American person, in America, inside a room with 30 people in the background speaking with Indian accents said everything was the author’s fault. When I asked why would the author hack my account to keep me from buying his book he tried, poorly I might add, to deflect. The guy never answered any of my questions so I hung up.

    The last person tried to say my billing information was the problem. I went through it with her. Everything was correct. I asked her if my card was the problem, why did Amazon let me order 11 other things with the same card after I ordered the book. For 20 minutes I kept asking that question. For 20 minutes she completely avoided it. She finally said she couldn’t answer that. I asked when the book would be available and she said probably in 3 months. The book I preordered wasn’t going to arrive until 3 months after the release date. I hung up on her.

    This was when I started reading reviews. Some people got the book with no problem. One person was told the book was too graphic and the book had been banned. Another person got an email saying they canceled his order. I tried to write a review. Amazon deleted it and kicked me out of my account again. I reached out to the author after reading the reviews and told him what happened. I got a message back saying Amazon had banned it for being too graphic. They have no problem selling the first book, but the sequel is too graphic. They also have no problem making volumes 1 and 2 of Mein Kampf available on Prime. Luckily Barnes & Noble still has it. I canceled my order and bought it from Barnes.

    It seems as though Amazon is jumping on the censoring people with different political views bandwagon along with Facebook, Twitter, and Apple. I always thought Alex Jones was a narcissistic douche who should be wearing a foil hat. Now that he has been censored along with a conservative who wrote a comedy book, I’m starting to believe it.

This is a rip off & Amazon did nothing to help me. The sellers offered me $3.00 for a $20 sundress. Why would I want to keep something I can't wear. All Amazon could say was that I need to look at the seller & make sure Amazon is shipping it.

I struggled for months with delivery drivers who couldn't speak English very well trying to explain the access code to my building after I had already noted the code on my orders. This resulted in many calls and frustration with Amazon. The final straw for me was the auto renewal of my membership. The charge was processed to a random (non-preferred) card. The charge was disputed and I opted to renew my membership with a separate account. Even though I had proof of charge, my membership was cancelled a second time because of the original dispute.

    I posted a three star seller feedback (NOT product review) for Bertoni Eyewear. Afterwards, I noticed that not only mine, but all recent three star and less feedbacks were deleted. According to Bertoni Eyewear, Amazon is the one who deleted the ratings. The URL is **. I contacted Amazon at least 20 times on this issue, but Amazon refuses to let me know why they are manipulating the feedback for this particular seller. I did find out when Amazon does not want to respond to buyers, Amazon support sends the cases to seller support. Since most buyers do not have a seller's account, that means the cases get closed without any easy way for the buyer to respond. I have numerous emails showing this pattern of behavior by Amazon.

    The following is about Amazon's deletion of three stars or less feedback rating on **. To start with, I am a BUYER and NOT a SELLER! According to seller support, this is NOT their issue. Second, this is about the seller feedback page and NOT the product page! The state of California has set laws and ordinances imposing penalties on businesses that try to deceive consumers or other companies through unfair practices such as false claims regarding products or services.

    When Amazon manipulates seller feedback ratings, they are doing two things. 1. Deceptive advertisement that causes a loss of revenue for any competitor, 2. Trap unwitting consumers by advertising a product, property, or service in a false or deceptive manner. When Amazon manipulates the feedback ratings for Bertoni Eyewear, this gives Bertoni Eyewear an unfair advantage over competitors whose feedbacks were not manipulated. It also gives consumers a false understanding of issues with the services offered by Bertoni Eyewear, which is deceptive.

I thought maybe a typo. I get on chat. The guy says, "Oh that's when it's not in stock." I said, "Oh ok. Well how comes it shows in my email it will come in 2 weeks? I thought it was same day shipping, is it coming from another state or country?" He says, "No, that's not it. It's not in stock." "Ok that didn't make sense because he just said 2-3 months is when it's out of stock." Then he says, "I see it will ship out on the 3rd so you are ok." Again, he is not making sense. How can it ship when it's not in stock? I tell him, "If I knew it was out of stock, which it didn't say, I would have gone to Walmart." He says, "I can cancel it for you." I said, "No because I don't want to wait for the money to go back in my account since I already placed the order.."

    He said, "You won't be charged because it hasn't shipped". I said, "Ok". So he says, "Done". So then I decide, Walmart is quicker so I cancelled my 3' tablet order as well. I received an email that it was successful in me cancelling the 3" but never got a confirmation on the 1". I thought well that's probably because the rep. cancelled it. I placed my order with Walmart. Next day my bank account shows Both tablets were pending. What?

    He says, "I just cancelled everything now. You will see a refund in your account within 3-5 business days." I know, this is insane. Who asked him to cancel everything? Then I talked to another guy because this guy disconnected with me when I asked to speak with a supervisor. The next guy told me to take a screenshot of my overdraft fees when they come. I asked to speak with a supervisor. 3 people jump on and off the chat without saying anything. Finally Amanda comes on. She says, "Give me a minute to go over everything." I said, "Please read all the transcripts." Within seconds, she was typing. I was thinking, I know she couldn't have read all the transcripts that fast. Impossible. She basically was telling me that since they are pending, they will drop off and I should call my bank to get them dropped off immediately. I said I worked at that bank. I know that they can not do anything when in pending mode.

    I said, "Now I don't have money for gas because the balance isn't available because of the pending transaction and what about the items the guy cancelled without asking me?" She said, "You can reorder anytime and we are not responsible for keeping your account pending." I couldn't believe what I was hearing. She didn't take any responsibility for what happened. She didn't acknowledge my questions. Every time I would send a lengthy detailed question about something that didn't make sense. I would hit send and instantly she was typing. She cannot be reading. She is now just typing repeated things. "Call your bank to see if they can help." She would let me talk to anyone else higher. Biggest attitude. So unprofessional. One rep responded after two days. They were going to take care of everything. Then someone else responded. They didn't even read what was going on.

    They wanted me to go to Amazon.com and click on the order I was having issues with. WHAT? Now every time I email them, I get a auto reply that someone will get back to me within 6 hours and of course they don't. Why bother coming up with that if they don't enforce that?

    I have been a loyal customer of Amazon since 1999. Ordering tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise for myself and my company. Now I feel I have to speak out about charges in their practices that adversely affect people's shopping experience. First let's talk about Prime, as most people are aware when you order an item that is eligible for Prime delivery it will usually cost a few dollars more than the same item delivered by other means. Well UPS has come up with SUREPOST and now most guaranteed 2 day Prime deliveries are no longer arriving in 2 days, in fact when Amazon uses SUREPOST it almost always guarantees 3 days +.

    Why? Because deliveries are transferred to your local USPS for final delivery to your home adding a day or two to the delivery times. One tip is that if this happens to you, complain, customer service will add a free month to your Prime account or as has happened in my case several times they will give you the item free, crediting your CC account. This year so far I have 11 months of free Prime and around $80 in free items, but to be honest I would rather have my purchase deliver on time! My next issue is with ordering items that are temporarily out of stock. On May 4th 2018 I ordered a woodworking plane, it had by far the best online price and as I was in no rush for it I placed the order. Today over 3 month later and nothing, I sent in two inquiries to customer service and get back a form reply that have zero indication as to what's happening with my order.

    I should also note that the description of this item is for a polo shirt not a woodworking tool? On the page is a box that you can check to report inaccurate descriptions/information about the product. Over the 3 month period I have reported this 4 times and also sent 2 e-mails and still to this day the description remains incorrect. What's the point of having this facility if it's not acted upon? Anyway I could pay $100 more and purchase the item direct from the supplier or another online company, but then why does Amazon say Temporarily out of stock and then 3+ months later still have no idea when it will be available? Now I realize that Amazon has grown to one of, if not the largest companies in the world with many millions of products and customers. But my belief is that they are now just too big to provide the great customer service they were once known for, they have become a dinosaur. Big and slow to act.

    Amazon Prime's subscription price is a flat out ripoff. The few products that do qualify now have a markup that more than covers shipping so free shipping is an out and out LIE! Two day shipping only occurs about 40% of the time. Items are often Bojack knockoffs, no name trash, and counterfeited products. Amazon should be raided by the Fair Trade Commission, and have all their records seized. Some sort of legal action should be taken assessing very steep fines and awarding monetary damages to consumers who received counterfeit products and treble monetary damages to any companies whom's products have been misrepresented and or counterfeited.

    I bought a General Electric light fixture. The only place GE was mentioned was on the package. Even the lamp was a no name and simply said "Made in China" on it. I am almost certain the UL listing and the CSA listing are both counterfeit. ETL listing is a joke. CE is not quite as big a farce as Edison Testing Labs, but it is not too far behind in being lax and sleazy. The number of available products on Amazon Prime is shrinking, and the prices are equal to or higher than items in nearby RETAIL stores, with high prices.

    So if I drive down the street, I can have my merchandise for the same price in 20 minutes or I can pay $150 a year and get the same products or questionable fake knockoffs delivered in two days. That hardly seems like any kind of a deal. It's an out and out ripoff! Parts that do not fit were delivered, and Amazon allows me to "resell them". Resell them as WHAT? I don't even know what they fit!!! Amazon is the epitome of sleaze. For what I paid for Amazon Prime I can pay for 3 day shipping on an awful lot of parcels, from more reputable sellers. The first year was fantastic, but the second year, all the prices went up by an average of 24%, overall. THAT IS A SCAM!

    We are longtime Amazon shoppers but have started seeing troubling trends, including Amazon no longer meeting their delivery promise. Most troubling though, is the $144 charge from Amazon that appeared on our bank account. No orders appeared on our order list and we knew we hadn’t ordered anything. When we contacted Amazon to rectify, they told us it was for an Alexa Spot and that we had ordered it at 3:50 a.m. We conveyed multiple times that we did not order the item and curiously, it wasn’t showing up on our order list like other items we had ordered - I have a photo of our order page and no Amazon Spot shows up.

    We wanted help getting to the bottom of how this Amazon item was purchased on our account, but we were told again and again that we could just “return it when it arrived as it was too late to cancel the order” despite the fact that this was just hours after the fraudulent order was placed. I wonder how many others out there have received Amazon products (not products sold on Amazon, but actual Amazon-produced products), they didn’t order? If this happened to you, were you able to figure out what happened? Again, this item was never in our cart, does not show up on our order list, and was purchased at an hour of the day when we were not awake. It is being shipped to our home. Thanks for any insight.

    While I have often enjoyed shopping with Amazon, I feel I must discontinue doing business with them for the following reasons: 1. It is WAY too easy to order something by accident. I have accidentally clicked that "one-click" feature of theirs at least twice in the process of just trying to add something to a cart or wish list.

    2. They auto-renew Prime and Music Unlimited without your authorization. I have had this happen repeatedly despite requesting twice by phone that they not do that and despite having physically unchecked the auto-renew settings. The only surefire way to make sure that they don't do that is to remove your card after every purchase - my mother had that happen to her too, so she has the same tactic of purchase-->delete card), but if you're in the habit of purchasing music one song at a time via phone like I am, this gets really tedious.

    Just today, Music Unlimited was renewed without my knowledge, so I called to remove the charge. Nearly an hour after I hung up, I started systematically closing windows on my phone and saw the Amazon Music app open to the renewal page. Our grabby 18-month-old had gotten my phone and was tapping away and initiated a renewal. (See point #1. They really need to require password input for app purchases.) While now I am embarrassed at finding out about our son's accidental purchase, it still is way too easy for that to happen, seeing as how when I first got Unlimited, it was by accident after they decided to no longer include certain music with Prime (though up until that point, ALL music was included with Prime). In that case, I was paying for Music Unlimited for 4 months BESIDES the Prime membership before I even caught it.

    3. They really don't want you calling them. You have to jump through multiple hoops and lengths to find a link where you can talk to someone via phone... and even then, they call you. In my experience, I don't recall whether I've seen a phone number on their website like a normal site. 4. They no longer QC their sellers like they should. I ordered a pair of Samsung chargers for my phone only to find out after purchase that they were counterfeit. (No data transfer, logo and design abnormal; Chinese vendor; see below.) Specifically, if what you're attempting to purchase is not from a seller / name brand you recognize, you may be on shaky ground with that purchase.

    Just yesterday I had to contact an Amazon seller because I had purchased a video game for my husband for Christmas. The game was being sold with bonus content. Yesterday he was finally able to sit down and start playing the game. The bonus content codes were INVALID and upon further inspection, it looks like this disc is only licensed to be sold in ASIA. We ORDERED a North American disc (as evidenced by the seller's uploaded photos of the game case) with content, and we received an ASIAN disc with codes ONLY valid if you live in Asia.

    Upon contacting the seller (while implying they may have sold this under false pretenses), they assured us that "all other functions are still perfectly valid." They offered a credit of $3 for the bonus content. While the $3 does cover the cost of purchasing the content via PSN, the disc was inexpensive, so it's more of a huge inconvenience... besides making you feel somewhat dirty and manipulated. I'm not even sure they are LEGALLY ALLOWED TO SELL IT in the U.S.

    Now, I actually have had some really amazing seller experiences, and it's a shame that Amazon nearly makes itself the worst mediator of those goods. Also-also, especially with these Chinese vendors (I've had about 4 experiences in which I've had products not be as advertised or be straight-up counterfeit), there is a recurring pattern in which sellers will set up a new account to list and sell ONE SINGLE ITEM (before being "out of stock"), then turn around and sell another of it under another, yet similar, storefront. It would be like purchasing an outfit in the mall, going home, realizing that what was in your bag was a knockoff of what you just purchased, then going back on the next day to the store - which now has a slightly different name - and seeing the salesperson with Clark-Kent-style glasses pretending he's never seen you before in his life. It's really that bad.

    We ordered three dresses for our daughter at relatively cheap prices, and when they arrived (for the ones that did): bad stitching, low-quality fabric, not as pictured, never received it. And returning it would be insanely expensive since they actually came from China. So now, if I see any vendors on Amazon with any typos, or bad English, or Asian names, or names like "Happy Fun Fashion", I just avoid them like the plague. Overall, it seems like Amazon may quickly be becoming Wish in that regard, and you might want to reconsider business with them for that reason. The only reason I still tolerate Amazon is for their refund policy (which refunds shipping if you have to send something back) and their digital music downloads, which are considerably more easygoing of an experience than the garbage-fire that is iTunes.

    5. In order to save money, they have "sub-let" their delivery services to financially-strapped, unethical, non-Amazon-employee whoevers (most under the age of 30) who come up to your house in unmarked vans and leave strange packages at your door... that is, if they ever come. We had an order get lost in transit a few weeks ago, so Amazon just refunded the money back. I wouldn't be surprised if one of these "starving students" opened the package and decided to keep the item.

    6. Amazon has a recently-exposed history of funding anti-Christian groups - specifically of partnering with the Southern Poverty Law Center - which openly persecutes Christians. That being said, Amazon also got in trouble for removing reviews from a prominent Christian reviewer for giving a glowing review of a recently published Christian book. Amazon has a system in place for supporting non-profits, but then removed the Alliance Defending Freedom from its recipient list due to the ADF's legal representation of persecuted Christians. As a Christian myself, it is practically an attack against me, my family, and the vast majority of Americans who still hold to the Bible, whether in spirit or in name only.

    All said, I have been shopping with other sites recently, and though I don't make a lot of purchases, I find that it's less drama and trouble to just walk into the stores for what you need. Then you have a physical place to return to and you can look someone in the eye when you make that purchase. Proceed with caution.

    From sending me broken knockoffs, to sending me empty packages, Amazon is the king of messing things up. Their customer service is also poor, from sighing at you as if you're a inconvenience, to silencing poor reviews for calling them out with sarcasm. Be very careful what you order from Amazon, because getting the issue fixed can be a headache, and a company that doesn't care about the people who work for it definitely doesn't care about their customer base. They have messed up several times and never have they gone the extra mile to make it right. Even scammers on eBay treat their consumers better than Amazon does.

I put in an order for a product that was set to arrive on the 3rd week of July and ‘the carrier’ could not deliver it, so instead of trying again the next day or allowing me to give them instructions, they return my items! What bothers me is that ‘Amazon’s carrier’ claimed that the products got damaged in transit. I don’t believe that.

    I tell Amazon CS, and Amazon’s CS instructs me to reorder the products with one day shipping and give them the order number to have the shipping waived. More work for me??? So, it’s July 31st and I have yet to receive my products??? Amazon is better than this. I have tried to communicate with Amazon’s customer service multiple times, but I keep getting ignored.

    For a year, I have been trying to get my book published. I finally got it published but they took the paperback set up and used it for the Ebook which ruined it. So, I started all over again and had a professional format it. When I complained and I did so daily, no one did anything. Instead, they removed my orders, removed my wish list, and my account. All the books I was using for students to refer to AND which they buy from Amazon have disappeared. My order form is clean stating that I have made no purchases whatsoever in the last six months. This is not true I have a number of books here and the receipt slips and dates.

    Now they have removed the PRIME service; that is no longer available. In other words I have been removed as a customer from Amazon. Do they have the right to do that or should I see a lawyer and sue? I have done nothing to endanger their business, But I am considering sending this complaint to the BBB and also putting it up for the public as well as discussing the situation with a legal department. Additionally they owe me money for a book they could not provide, or did not feel like providing.

I contacted customer service through chat on TWO separate occasions and I was assured that my issue would be taken care of and that I could write reviews again. Well, it was never fixed. I finally emailed Amazon to see if I had better luck that way.

    It took a week to hear back and I got the most insulting email ever. They told me I was receiving gift cards for my good reviews. I have NEVER once received a gift card for a good review. I have had several companies email me asking me to take off reviews in order to receive a free item or a gift card but I never did. I thought it was dishonest and not fair to leave a fake review. They told me this is permanent and they would not be responding to any more emails about this issue. They never gave me any example of where or what I did wrong.

I went ahead and clicked the link provided within the pop up ad. It downloaded the Amazon app and I resumed browsing. After putting $20 of items in my cart, went to check out, and lo and behold there was no $10 credit as advertised in the promotional pop up! I called customer service and after being on the phone for over a half hour and speaking to two different people I had no choice but to cancel my Prime Membership. WHY do I want to be with a company that doesn't stand by their own words!?!

    They solicited me with an offer so I'm not really sure what's going through their head right now... but apparently they need the $10 more than I do, bless their little heart! All I can say is if they don't want to honor their promotions maybe they shouldn't solicit people with little pop up windows... The funny thing is not only did I cancel my Prime membership (for which they will have to refund me 120...) but I will not be renewing it again in the future!!! So they lost 120 this year and 100s in future years... Overall this was more of a blessing in disguise. Now I'm free!!! I won't have to pay 120 a year for free shipping that I use only a handful of times each year. Otherwise the only other service I was using was Amazon video... and between you and me it leaves a lot to be desired. Nothing that Netflix or Hulu can't do just as well (or better).

I demanded a refund and that the free month of Prime be applied to my account. They refunded me, didn't apply it. This month, wanting to buy a few things, I requested the month of Prime be applied. I had checked to see if they applied the $5.00 credit, and they had not. When I demanded it be applied, I was told I had to pay before they would apply the free month. They then told me the $5.00 had been applied, by the person I was then talking to.

    My credit score has gone down around 50 points since my recent issues with Amazon and will no doubt go down more with the latest. Order of events: My debit card was somehow compromised after I signed up for a free Spotify account and someone bought themselves a paid Spotify account with my debit card. I shut the card down. I did NOT give my new card information to Amazon or anyone else. It literally never left my wallet. Somehow my new card was compromised again, Wells Fargo suggested it was through the "Visa Account Updater" and three people bought themselves Amazon Prime with my debit card.

    I contacted customer support to ask what was up. The rep said she couldn't help me but that someone would contact me via email. She also said she would credit my Amazon account with $5 even though I said it was unnecessary but she insisted. $5 never showed, not a big deal, but it was clearly a play to get me to rate her higher in the post help survey. I waited a week. I contacted Amazon back to ask what was up and this person was able to help me and tell me that yes, there were fraudulent charges. They proceeded to tell me that they would refund my money. I waited a week. I contacted them back to ask why my money was never refunded and they gave me a vague answer about how they didn't know why it was refunded but that they could not now refund it and I would have to contact my bank. At this point I'm irked but Wells Fargo supports me and gets me my money back.

    I get a notification that my credit score which was excellent is now only good. My Prime membership autorenew had been set to the original card that was cancelled and had since been deleted from my Amazon account. Instead of contacting me to ask me which card on file to use or to notify me that I needed to update which card was used for the autorenewal, they just charged one of my cards on file at random. I about lost my marbles. They charged my credit card and went over the credit limit.

    This has taken place over the past 5 months but I have been a Prime member for 5 years. Why does it have to be auto-renewal? Can't I make up my mind next year or at least be warned when it's going to happen? Can't they send me an email saying that I need to pick which card to charge? The only explanation for this silent, secret way of autorenewing is so that customers won't stop to consider if they really want to renew again. Disgraceful. I've been lied to and stolen from - not acceptable. They have wasted so much of my time and hurt my credit score in such a way that I don't know how to fix it. Even though it's slightly less convenient, I'm switching most of my purchases over to eBay and Walmart.com until they get themselves together. One more incident and I'm deleting my account. It's nice that things are cheaper there, but what does that matter if they ruin my credit?

That is absurd! All they would offer is a mitigated return or a discount on a replacement. This is crap customer service. I will be looking for alternatives to my prime membership at this point.

    I arranged to have this very important delivery delivered today through Amazon Logistics express delivery and it failed me. I waited in all day (Morning, Afternoon and evening) and went on Amazon chat twice, once in the morning and once in the afternoon to ask where is my parcel! I was informed that it was out for delivery and your chat persons said they would contact your driver to give them my mobile phone number just in-case they have difficulties which may I say no one ever has. Indeed Yodel easily delivered my goods yesterday. I was informed I have until 9pm for the delivery BUT at approx 18.50 I get an email from Amazon stating they "We tried but failed to deliver your package today. We’ll try again tomorrow. For business addresses, deliveries will be attempted Monday to Friday only.” When I was in all day and all Morning, afternoon and all evening!

    Plus in an attempt to use Amazon call back I put my mobile number down and Amazon, called me but on this mobile then when it stated verify the call by pushing ‘1’ it said this failed and terminated the call. Five times today. I then had to phone at my expense searching for answers why this delivery has failed. I spoke to a ** from India then a “** MANAGER” who were unable to get this guaranteed delivery delivered this evening. I wasted all Morning all afternoon and all evening waiting for this guaranteed delivery despite my earnest endeavors to liaison with your Amazon staff. I got false promises that amounted to nothing. As a Consumer activist who highlights publicly such failures don’t you feel consumers need to know how Amazon Logistics are totally unreliable and Amazon UK fails its regular customers? Further Delay and Expense the next day :-. Emails to the Chief Executive and CEO Ignored!

    I have been loyal customer of Amazon.com for the past 12 years at least. Prime member since 2009, I can clearly see the prime items are marked more expensive than non prime items, for the past 12+ months my delivery are delayed or canceled in a daily basis. Yes in a daily basis because I spend thousands and I buy something every day. Neither their customer service nor their logistic have a straight answer to why they keep delaying all the "Free One Day Delivery" Items. At this point I am looking to leave Amazon for good. I never had this problem with my eBay account even though I rarely use it. Bye Bye Amazon.

She started to ask me the email address, I said, "... @gmail.com", okay, I just forgot how to pronounce "@", so I just said the symbol usually comes with email, She DOESN'T KNOW!!! And the worse thing was, she asked me if I can describe the symbol for her, like what it looks like, and she kept asking me three times just to describe the ''@'' for her, ** that **, that was really insulting.

    I have been a loyal customer since I was in high school. You helped to find the perfect prom dress and the best prices for knick knacks in my nerdy fandoms. College came along and I found helpful books for my classes. After about 6+ years of being a customer I found that I have enjoyed being a reviewer of your products! Other customers had started rating my reviews as helpful and it gave me personal pride to be an Amazon customer.

    Three weeks ago I found that I have been banned from making reviews because one review mentioned that I didn't receive the correct product however I was responded to immediately and was given a refund. I was trying to give a positive perspective to Amazon saying that the product was great but also the service was great and to trust ordering it even though I had an issue. Apparently the guidelines state you can't give credit to the seller. I was unaware of this until after the fact. Yes, I made a mistake in not double checking the guidelines. However, instead of being asked to revise my review. I have been completely banned from writing any reviews at all.

    It took two to three weeks to be contacted by a representative of the review team after sending them several emails and calls. The response was extremely rude and stated that I will not be given a second chance at writing any reviews all because I made one mistake and was not contacted to fix it. (Every email I personally received said my review had been posted. So I didn't think anything of it. When I get an email saying that it doesn't meet guidelines I try to revise it so it does so that I can further help people.) The letter accused me of being biased about my reviews (which were all positive or close to based on personal experience with the product.) Ending with that any further contact to them will not be responded to.

    I love Amazon but this experience has really hurt me as a customer. I take pride in helping others and I have only meant to be honest and helpful. I don't feel that it's fair to revoke someone of something that they have been doing for years, especially when those reviews have been found helpful by so many other customers in the past. All that I'm asking is to be reasoned with over one mistake instead of getting accused to being biased and banned over a single post. I would hope you guys to have better customer service than this towards your loyal customers. Thank you.

    While checking my catalog listings for books I had published, I came across one which showed that it was part of an old series I had discontinued. I had already made sure that the ISBN and distribution listing through my printer were corrected. I emailed Amazon showing the error, but received a no-reply form reply telling me to contact my distributor about it. Since it takes less than 5 minutes to correct one of their listings I could not understand why I should be receiving such a letter when I had already informed them of the change once I saw the listing.

    After 3 rounds of frustration at this, I have filed a complaint with the BBB and I hope to receive some kind of explanation of Amazon's refusal to comply. In any case, the listing is misleading and may delay or prevent sales of the book. I would not publish any books on Amazon but my distributor's contract prevents me from pulling them off. Amazon has not sold any ebooks for me since December of last year, so I have unpublished them. It would appear that this is not the same Amazon as I came to know in 2006. They have lost all credibility and their bad customer service reflects their low estimation of their sellers, buyers, and Prime members. As an independent seller I would not use Amazon to sell from if I can help it. Amazon has proved to be untrustworthy.

    Updated on 07/31/2018: I received a call today from a customer service rep at 1-843-323-4400 at Amazon saying that I must go through my Author Central account to remove the series name, only there is no place to do that. You would think that after 3 tries at doing it myself I would have done so already. I added a sentence after the book's description indicating that it was not part of a series. I argued with the man for five minutes saying that there is no way I can change the series or remove it through Author Central. I had already contacted my distributor and looked at the metadata. There is no series designation for it.

    I also looked at Bowker and asked them to change the metadata there to reflect that I have discontinued the series, since they also did not remove it. After weeks of continuous effort to do what would have taken less than five minutes to fix the problem, I still do not have satisfaction. I have replied to BBB's commentary with a text of the call, and a photo of the book's cover. Amazon is still refusing to remove the series from the book title. Further, I checked Author Central again and there is still no way to change anything. I checked the Amazon product page and there is no way to change anything. As far as I am concerned, Amazon is a **.

    I'm no longer allowed to leave reviews or comments on Amazon because they say that I am either a relative to a seller or took a gift in exchange for a review or that I asked for something free in exchange for a review when I am not a relative to anyone on there nor have I received anything free. I am actually really insulted that I have been unfairly accused of something like that because I hate when people do that exact thing. I would never stoop so low. What aggravates me the most is that I am not allowed to discuss this with them, the email said that the case was closed and there is nothing I can do and I am banned for life.

    So, I obviously won't be spending any more of my money there. I have been a loyal customer of theirs for years now so it actually kinda hurts.

I have decided to go through WALMART for these items now. Not only has Amazon failed at getting items shipped on time, but they have now INCREASED their membership fee.

    Considering how poorly they’re doing, I’m surprised they would increase the fee. It’s not worth it to get Amazon Prime because half the items are late. Considering Amazon is supposed to be know for “free and speedy delivery”, I’m disgusted with the service I have received. My mom’s orders have repeatedly been delayed and never delivered, and she has not been compensated. I canceled my Subscribe and Save and have decided to use another source for my child’s diapers and wipes.

The Leadership agent Teeja was rude and refused to provide a manager after being asked over 8 times. The Supervisor MJ made promises they could not follow through on.

This bogus accusation, along with the "This decision is final" gavel pounding, and the insinuation that Amazon had no intention of entertaining ANY dialogue about the decision is a most remarkable display of arrogance.

    Isn't it interesting that one would get a scalding notice from a Customer Service Dept. that basically states you've breached some protocol, but that SAME department disallows mature dialogue in one's own defense?? Having no forum for an appeal is chutzpah in the extreme! When exactly did Customer Service leave the room, and where was I when it happened??

    I think this company has put so many other companies out of business. They think they've got it made and no longer have to try. Nowadays, they try to frustrate customers to the point they give up asking for refunds when refunds are definitely due, and make the customer pay for THEIR mistakes. I've been a customer for around a decade, spending thousands every year. Twice now in the last year I've had something shown on the orders page as delivered that I have not received. I have a pretty good neighborhood but when delivery people leave boxes in plain view instead of ringing the bell and waiting for a signature, even when there are cars in the driveway, then they are just asking for things to get taken.

    Over the years, the few times that something was stolen or misdelivered and kept by a neighbor, Amazon simply credited my account, and told me to reorder the item. That's how it should be, because I, the customer, have done nothing wrong. Whether they take it up with the delivery service or not is up to them. But both times in the last year, they've begun to do it differently. Instead of crediting me, they are holding up hoops for ME to jump through. They are asking for police reports, putting the onus on me to see this through.

    First of all, we don't even know for sure an item was delivered or if the driver made a mistake (intentional or unintentional), so involving out police force is stupid and a waste of resources. They have more important things to do than to be forced to create paperwork over something we don't even KNOW happened. The first time this happened I did as they asked, and after filing the report online and linking them to it, they refunded my money. Really? That act did nothing but appease Amazon. It provides no new information whatsoever. They simply hope that if they begin doing that, a certain percentage of customers will say, screw it, and take the loss themselves. Nice way to treat long time loyal customers. I hope the new tax laws kill this company. They truly deserve it for their increasing arrogance.

    After dealing with pain from an old mattress that terribly needed replaced, I ordered a new one that was to be delivered and installed. I discovered that my very old bed frame would not support the new mattress, so I needed to find something to replace it quickly. As a long time Amazon customer and a Prime member, I decided to see if they had any options that could arrive quickly. I found the Novogratz Her Majesty Upholstered Linen Bed that claimed Prime shipping and 2-3 days to ship out (now it says 1-2). It seemed like a perfect deal and I thought the stress of finding something was over. Friday rolled around and the bed still had not shipped. I called Amazon's customer service to find out what was going on. At that point the mattress was supposed to be delivered the coming Monday.

    The customer service person was unhelpful and told me that the order could not be cancelled and that it was shipping (even though it did not even ship until the following Tuesday). I told him the bed didn't do me any good after Monday and asked what I was supposed to do. He told me I had to wait until it shipped and have it intercepted or I had to watch for the delivery person and reject the delivery. I then spent the weekend changing my plans and running around locally trying to find a bed frame that would accommodate the new mattress. I tried several times to cancel the order using the online tools but it would not cancel.

    Finally on Tuesday, the day after I had to install the locally purchased bed frame and after the mattress delivery, I received a shipping notification. I called Amazon again and was told that they were going to try to intercept the order from UPS. After that I wrote a review on the product explaining what had happened and that the item says prime shipping but is not so that people who needed something in a hurry would have warning. They rejected my review. I have submitted several more since and they have yet to allow one to post. They obviously do not want people to know that the item does not ship out when they claim it does. The item is STILL listed as prime even after all of this. The best part is that today the bed was left sitting out front of my house, six days after it was shipped (prime is supposed to be 2 day shipping) and it was never intercepted as they claimed they were trying to do. I am leaving it sit there.

    I am done with Amazon. Had they fixed the listing to reflect the fact that prime on the item wasn't true, and had they not tried to censor me warning people that it didn't ship prime, I would have continued to be a loyal Amazon customer. The dishonesty here was so bad and disrespectful, and people have the right to know that this is what their practices and customer service is now like.

He ran out there, caught up with the guy, and said, "Hey, we would appreciate your coming in the gate and putting the box on our doorstep in the future." The rude delivery person said, "No, we’re not allowed to do that;" and took off. Unbelievable!!

    I’m sorry to say that after years of being a faithful Prime subscriber, we are now looking for other places to buy our goods. (Prior times: Amazon delivery people leaned over the gate and put boxes ON our plants, right next to the sprinklers; others, they left packages out in the open next to the gate where anyone walking by could see them. Worse, on those deliveries, Amazon showed that the delivery persons wrote that they had HANDED the packages to a resident, which was totally untrue!

    We’ve had 2 very nice deliveries over the last couple of months - nice young ladies that rang the bell and came to the front door per our instructions to Amazon after we had experienced several months of very bad deliveries. We never have any trouble with UPS, USPS, and FedEx - it’s only the independents Amazon is hiring to replace quality experienced delivery people with a whole bunch of untrained and disinterested individuals.

I have been dealing with this situation for almost 4 months now! I understand it is expensive to ship here but you shipped 3 already, why not the 4th.

    After several more attempts to plead my case, Amazon has submitted a refund to me for the lost order.

    Original Review: July 11, 2018

    I tracked my order through Amazon closely, I usually do on more expensive orders and this one was just shy of $400. The Amazon website stated it was out for delivery on 7/2/18. Later that evening the website status changed to 7/3/18. Later that evening of 7/3/18 it changed status to "delivery may be delayed or lost". On 7/5/18 the carrier Amazon hired to deliver the product asked my child to sign off on a product they delivered on 7/3/18. No knowing any better she did. I called Amazon right away, figuring they were a large reputable company and would deal with their carrier accordingly. Amazon launched an investigation and concluded today (7/11/18) that the package was signed for and therefore is not eligible for a refund or replacement. They recommended I contact the local authorities.

    Amazon has always been rated high in customer service. Yet these days they are more worried about getting through calls and chats as quickly as possible versus making sure the problem is resolved. My most recent issue (but not my only one) was an order I placed for an item fulfilled by Amazon. The item was over $100 and broke on the second use. I contacted customer service and was issued a refund and at first was told I needed to return the item. It was a rather large item that would need a special box to ship and so I was then told to keep the broken item and they would just issue me a refund.

    Fast forward to a month later and I receive an email stating that they were still waiting for me to return the item and if I did not I would be recharged for it. I contact customer service again and they promised (more than once) that I would not be recharged and that they fixed the issue. Fast forward to today and my account was recharged for it. That I am pissed is an understatement. Here I am contacting them yet again, and they reissued me a refund, and again promised it would never happen again. The only way to ensure it never happens again is to close my account as soon as the refund clears and never use Amazon again. Bye.
