Amazon.com Reviews

When I purchase my boots for my upcoming trip, I contacted Amazon's chat to ask for advice which kind of shipping I should opt for. I went along with the representative's advice but the boots didn't arrive on time. I went online to seek help but the customer service officers presented to get in touch with UPS and assured me that the parcel will reach in time. I only realised that they did not attempt to get in touch with UPS when I called UPS to verify when I will receive the parcel. UPS has NO record of their call. Even the supervisor Shiva who assisted me was unhelpful and gave empty promises. Can anybody tell me how I can give a formal feedback to Amazon's management? They need to know what's going on!

I have ordered 2 T-Shirts from Amazon site. I got Email & SMS from Amazon site that my order got delivered. When delivery boy came, he delivered only one item, I asked him for second item, but he didn't have any idea about it. Then I have called customer care guy (Gurav **), he told me that "you will receive your second item by EOD."

When I ordered the hair accessories, I didn't realize the item was coming from China, until more than a month went by, and I didn't receive the item, nor a tracking number. I don't ever purchase out of the country. I searched Amazon website, and couldn't find any where that Amazon lets you know the item is coming from out of the country. Amazon contacted me, that I didn't do a Feedback for the item, so I went and did a Feedback, but Amazon re-contacted me, and said "they would print my review if I would go back and re-word it, to a positive experience. Amazon does not post negative Feedback." I was offered to buy something else, but turned the offer down. The item in question wasn't an expensive item, but a memorabilia item, yet the experience was not expected.

I have been selling products online for over 5 years, we started selling on Amazon for almost a year now. All I can say is do not get sucked into their world of stress & mental abuse. This is my full time job as I have health issues that stop me from working outside of my home. We slowly started to build our business with Amazon online & right when we started to do good during this holiday season, the season that every online seller looks forward to, they suspend my account claiming they have proof of me having another account with them that was shut down. I tried to appeal the case like they told me to. All I got back is "sorry to inform you that your selling privileges are gone you can never get them back." They have proof and cannot give me any more information about this.

I ordered bar stools from Amazon on behalf of Cavalier Wholesale in April 2014. Within a month a bar stool stopped working (going up and down). They sent me their phone number on their response and asked me to contact them for screws missing. So when the first chair broke I just used the phone and called them about it. They said it was something I did. I just let it go, which I should have not done. Now another chair is doing the same thing. Now down to 4 working bar stools out of six ordered. Amazon will not do anything about it! I even talked to a manager and still nothing, no refund or replacement parts!!! Amazon will be short lived with this type of mind set!!! Make sure all communications are done on amazon so you back up your story, do not contact seller by phone!!! Stay Away from cavalier wholesale. Their BBB rating is F on a scale of A+ to F. They will not even contact BBB back on claims. These are the types of sellers Amazon sells for and backs up.

My order no. is **. Had ordered a laptop in a lightning deal on Dec 12. Got email/sms confirmation and have screenshots for order placed. Later the order was cancelled & removed from the order history without my approval. Have been following up with service desk for 2 days now & I get the same response that the supervisor is busy & a callback will be arranged ASAP. Disappointed with the insensitive customer support. Have no option but to opt for other modes to communicate my grievances. While they have cancelled the order just by sending out an email to a single customer, the deal is still highlighted on various GSOF websites as a loot/lightening deal, which is still misleading/fooling customers. As a customer I feel that the order placed should be honored by AMAZON! Still waiting for a reply by amazon on this.

Amazon intentionally removed the hdmi output from last years kindle fire hdx in order to sell the new line of Fire tv products. This simple feature allowed you to watch your Fire content on your television and computer with a simple cable. Now they just informed me that they added the feature back into this year's model for another 400.00 Dollars!!!! This was their plan to try and force consumers to buy another tablet once they discovered the unfortunate truth. Listen closely! You can NOT mirror and kindle fire hdx without an internet connection. This means no sharing pictures or movies you took with the kindle fire camera with grandmom who does not have an internet connection. No watching tv "on the go" as amazon advertises. They even insinuated in their ad when I purchased the unit that you could "mirror" the device. There was no disclaimer telling you that you now need an internet connection to do so. Be very careful with their device. You will regret not buying a tablet with hardwire output. Trust me. Go with a different device like the Apple I-pod. At least that's a "real" tablet and not some ripoff device.

If you're a customer on Amazon, the only thing they're good for is refunding money no questions asked. Other than that, customer service, especially the department that deals with reviews, is SO RUDE. I wrote a complaint about a seller and they took down every one of my reviews for no reason and kept giving me a copy/paste response that made no sense. I'm not sure what's going on, but someone isn't paying attention to how they treat people. Now they won't let me write reviews at all and it makes zero sense. Their MTurk department is worse where they pay people $2-$4 an hour to work.

I have been a loyal Amazon customer for 12 years. Without notice Amazon closed my account. Their customer service department is overseas, even the management. They just gave me generic responses without any details or reasoning.

I called Amazon Customer service this morning and spoke with a representative Eva. The purpose of my call was to request a refund for Prime membership for my parents who are senior citizens living in Ireland. They had just realized that there was 81.58 Euro ($99) charge on their card for amazon membership. They had called the bank who said one of them must have signed up for membership and told them they paid 60 Euros ($79) the year before. Distressing at the best of times to throw money away without realizing it, but more distressing for senior, in part because of limited income but in part just a demoralizing sense of not being on top of things anymore. The only number I could find for Amazon Customer service was a 1-888 number, which they cannot dial form Ireland. So I did.

I made a purchase of a plant that I wanted and was hard to find on Amazon.com, and they took payment information from me which included my card number etc.... However, I placed this order around an hour ago, and the charge is still not showing up on my card as yet. Is this a bad thing, or are they just slow to process an order?? Can anyone please explain this to me, and thanks in advance!!

I have been ordering items from Amazon for over a year. They package the items very nicely and have good service. There have been a few times when I did not receive my package, but they are very easy to contact. I was able to contact them through live chat and email. They reply very quickly and have always found a satisfying solution. They give me my money back and apologize for everything.

I am a vendor and reseller on Amazon and for over 2 months now what they've owed me for the goods I've shipped to their buyers only trickles in in small amounts, with no ultra clear when or if I will get a final lump sum and further, I am still not being paid upon shipment confirmation. They owe me over $200.00. It was not like this a year ago this going unpaid. Now suddenly I have to ship then wait but fact is I cannot afford to do this anymore. Not dissatisfied but virtually angry. It’s an awful maze trying to resolve such a thing via emails, so although most people don't want to do it I suggest trying to speak to a live rep. When will I be paid? According to 'the schedule' but that's ineffective, as I have ALWAYS been compensated by other granddaddies such as Etsy, eBay or B&N.

I have had a HORRIBLE experience with 'Lightinthebox.com' - Worst EVER!!! Makes me appreciate AMAZON PRIME so much! So fast, orders correct, returns made easy. I LOVE YOU AMAZON.

Ordered Visual Land Prestige 10-inch Tablet with 16GBMemory (purple). Amazon Order Number **. The Last day of Return this product was October 12th, 2014. About 1st of November this product was broken (UI failure) and could not be repaired. Try to fix and unable to correct the problem (completely not working). I spent $107.43 (USD) for only 3 months. Never trust any product from Amazon.

I love Amazon's prices, but when it comes to the state of the items when they arrive, it's a mixed bag. Just last week I ordered a hard drive and it came in a ripped envelope. The actual drive seemed to have some nicks on it, but luckily the actual device seemed to work ok. Would be better if they put it into a box and added some additional packing material to keep it safe.

Despite the reputation Amazon recently got about their taxes, I have to admit when it comes to being fair with customers they certainly are and make up for any other "dubious" behavior they may have. First of all, Amazon is always cheaper for books hands down. I only ever find good deals at supermarkets, but usually I buy all my hardbacks and paperbacks on Amazon. Post even when using free super delivery can be very fast indeed.

I bought a Kindle for a birthday present November 2013 through Amazon. The leather cover that I also bought was the wrong type and didn't fit the Kindle. I ordered the correct cover and returned the wrong one. Amazon say that they never received the return and won't return my money. When I contact them for clarification my requests are ignored. The cost for the leather cover was £28.87.

I was working on purchasing the Samsung Galaxy S5 as a gift for my wife. I clicked on the phone, went to upgrade my Verizon Family Plan, she was eligible for an upgrade, but when I typed in her number through Amazon's eligibility section, it said she wasn't up-gradable. I contacted Verizon, and they verified she was, then when I went back to Amazon, they had sold out of the phone. The one I had in my cart disappeared, and they said they couldn't help it. The fact that they couldn't verify the upgrade cost my wife her phone.

Ordered Items worth $25.00 to be shipped to Billing Address (one click and confirmed by Amazon). Items sent by default to an overseas address instead, not Billing Address. I had to pay for shipping and import duty - $40.12 + $17.28. Amazon will only Refund me shipping costs of $40.12 when I order something else from their company. I am out of pocket $17.28, plus I don't have the items AND I have to order something else to get my money back (so to speak). Cannot understand why if I asked for it sending to Billing Address (and they confirmed this) that it should be sent somewhere else!! It seems to be my problem. Very frustrated and not happy!

I have sent the item to the buyer and the item is on the way. The buyer filed an A-Z claim, so I represent to Amazon the circumstance. However, Amazon refund to buyer within 24 hours even though the item is on the way. How I end up? I end up with lose $162.99 value of item and extra shipping I put and has to pay back to amazon $162.

TV damaged, replacement comes broken. Second replacement appointment is missed (3 hours of my day wasted), I call amazon, they say the TV was not with the carrier yet - no one told me. Amazon claims it will let me know when the TV is ready to deliver. A day later, the delivery guys call me from my place (no appointment was made) and I'm not even close to home. We set a new time that day, they don't come. We set ANOTHER time that day, they call me one hour before that set time and I sprint home for the replacement TV delivery.

I had ordered a few items eligible for free super shipping and they were sent from New Jersey according to the order tracking. My friend in New Jersey ordered exactly the same items the next day and also chose free shipping. It took the both of us 5 days to get our stuff. WTF. Why would my friend get his so late since he lives there? Oh I know. Because Amazon intentionally ships it from the furthest distribution center from the delivery location. When I called and confronted Amazon about this they flat out lied and said they ship from the site that is closer. BS.

Holds money. Amazon abuses their power and does with me however they please.

I order from amazon and was charged shipping. The order was over fifty dollars and amazon clearly states no shipping charge if order is over fifty dollars.

I have been a member of Amazon Prime since it started. They automatically renew my membership and I have been happy until the past year or so. While the free 2-day shipping is a great perk up and until the past 18 months the prices have been very good and returns WERE easy. If you pay attention you will notice the prices have crept up and now are much more than other retailer. It's cheaper to buy products at other retailers and pay to ship 2-day service. The return policy is simply terrible. If you buy a gift in advanced and it doesn't work if it's past 30 days, forget about returning it. I am stuck with several items that were wrong size or the recipient doesn't like it. I think it's time the word gets out about this disservice. I hope a competitor comes up with a better shopping experience for online purchases.

Yet again Amazon was late in delivering a package. Their response was yet again to give a free month of Amazon prime membership. This time the item was time sensitive and cost me the lives of all the fish in my fish tank. It was a tank heater to keep them at tropical temps. The free month of service was not worth 150 dollars in fish! I will never buy anything from Amazon that must be there on time!

I have ordered Nokia Lumia625 Mobile phone and Flip cover on Oct 21 on amazon.in in an Offer Rate which I saw adv on Times Of india, giving at offer price in amazon website. I paid rs 6999 through online for mobile and flip cover, I paid rs 249. But next day Oct 22nd, I cancelled these 2 ordered.. My Mobile ordered id is Order ** and Flip cover ordered id ORDER ** cancelled on Oct 22nd. I asked for refund after 8 days. On Nov 1st they said they have not received the item to their center.. Nov 5th, I chatted with amazon customer, they said they 5 to 10 days they will return my money. They said in Nov 15th they will return my money, they said.. Nov 14 I chatted with them, they saying still 4 days to wait to refund my amount, so I asked the seller contact number so that I can contact him directly. But their answer was really SHOCKING TO ME.. The answer is they don’t their seller mobile number.

I have ordered many items from Amazon. I am a prime member. Amazon is the most unbelievable company. Their service is extraordinary. Everything I have ordered has been less expensive than other sources, or the same price but so much easier to order and receive. Delivery is totally reliable. They also seem to have almost everything in stock. Also their return policy is fantastic. This is the best customer service company I have ever worked with. I have ordered a wide array of types of products. Can't possibly name them all.

During Diwali (a major festival of India) there were big offers and sale from few of the online sites in India. Flipkart, online site from whom I have been buying for last few years did not have a sale during this period. I wanted to buy an 2 TB external disk and thought Amazon would be better place to buy due to the brand name. Had heard about Amazon International, hence did not bother to check about the reviews. Had ordered this hard disk with Amazon India and as many others have mentioned in the reviews here was ordered late. The worst part is they had delivered the wrong item 1TB hard disk. Had to call up their customer care and they coolly said return it. Told that I need that to be replaced by the actual item I wanted. After long conversations he said, return the order and place an new order again and that he would make sure the correct item is sent this time. I ordered another one again by paying the amount again. This time again it was delayed, though I had put for 2 day delivery, had to follow up many times before I got this.

I bought from Amazon.com: 1.) Exercise device - it was used and crappy - I threw it out. 2.) Commode liners for my aged mother. Arrived two months after it was supposed to arrive. Had to call Amazon 5 times to get delivery. 3.) An MP3 Player - Broken - Battery won't hold charge. I believe Amazon does not have any morals.

Contacted amazon.com April at 6:19 Friday November 14th identified myself and provided security information to confirm this. Accomplished 3 separate Amazon on demand charges were on my account for 2.13 each one right after each other. Charges did not correspond to my email. After April searched for a few minutes, she was able to find the email that was associated with the charge. April said due to security reasons she could not give it to me and said transfer me to amazon on demand. Talked to Tammy and she confirmed they had the charged the email but would not give me what was charged or email to who had charged it. She said call the bank and tell them. Then asked for a ticket number ** and said wanted a supervisor. Then got Tonya. Well after 15 minutes got a refund but still refused what email charged it. So one of their staff possibly one of my staff it's OK for Amazon to take your money but they have no responsibility to tell you who took it. Amazon.com has some real security issues. They said they would refund the money so 1 hour and 10 minutes later I am told I will get back 6.39 but still have no idea who did it.

We have been a seller for Amazon.com since 2011. Their so-called "policy" regarding the sale of pornographic DVD is an absolute joke. They claim to not allow porn, but they have thousands of listings and sell it themselves!! They will take down one seller's listings as "a violation of policy", but leave another seller's up. When you report the other seller's listings, nothing happens. I have documentation to support my allegations. They are disorganized, unfair, and inconsistent in their selling policies, particularly regarding this genre. Either it's allowed or it's not! Take down all the product pages that invite sellers to post their offerings. Don't tell us we cannot sell it, yet show the famous "Have one to sell? Sell on Amazon." We have lost thousands of dollars on merchandise we can no longer sell because Amazon blocked our listings. We have lost all respect for Amazon.com. Thank you for your time.

We were recently asked to participate in a program with Amazon. This program allowed my company to list equipment and sell with no limitations on the amount of equipment in inventory. There was a monthly cost, a percentage and a template that needed to be added for easy inventory control. Amazon asks you to generate UPC seals on every piece in inventory. There is a cost to getting UPC's seals by another company but we needed them so we bought them, once the seals were purchased we found out that Amazon could not use any of them as this was older equipment, so we wasted money and a lot of time - days in dealing with these UPC's. They do not know what they are selling it seems.

I made a purchase on the 17th of October for a Samsung S4 i9500 16GB Factory Unlocked INTERNATIONAL VERSION BLACK for $339.58 from my visa debit card. However before the item could be shipped I called and requested cancel which I was advised that the request was submitted and no money will be charge seeing I cancel ahead of time. Checking my online account I saw where the phone was - still in transit so I quickly called Amazon and request that I speak with a supervisor. I had to do over the whole request as the previous request was not done. This supervisor advice me that the refund is now done and the phone will be send back to them. The next day I realize the money for the phone was deducted from my account. I called again to find out what is going on and I was told the money will be refunded the next 2-3 days.

I've been an Amazon customer for years and until this last year and a half, have been supremely happy. But things have changed, and not for the better. What used to be fast and complete shipping is now "we'll ship it when we feel like it - and your order may not be complete." I used to order a couple of books and a couple of CDs and maybe another item, and they would all appear within 5-6 days in one box. Even the stores that sell through them are more reliable. My latest order - four books, all in stock and "shipped by Amazon," - weren't consolidated into one order. They are being shipped piecemeal, in three shipments (at no additional charge!).

I am a small player at Amazon. I sell books, catalogs, art dealer catalogs and the like at Amazon. Many of my catalogs and foreign books do not have an ISBN number which is required. So, Amazon asks that you request an exemption. I have applied eight times over the past month and a half and get replies to fill out the form, areas which cannot be filled out which do not apply are exempted, yet, the form cannot be submitted because these areas cannot be left blank. To top it off the last response was that they are too busy during the holiday season and cannot therefore issue such a number. Now I recognize I am a bit player. I made over $1000 last month which means Amazon also made money. However, clearly they don't care about their sellers. No wonder they are losing money!

I ordered roof coating from Amazon twice. The first time I received what I ordered the second time I received roof coating but not what I ordered. When I applied the new coating on, 20 hours later the coating washed off. Customer svc. said don't worry they would fix the problem and gave me $30 credit for the inconvenience. I received an email from Amazon that my claim was declined and I would have to deal with the seller, who refused to replace the roof coating. I am 72 years old, it took me 3hrs to apply and then see it wash away was just too much for me, it is not easy for me to climb a ladder. The first coating I applied never washed off after the rain.

and he said after receiving my money I can reorder the product which I want exactly. So over all it will take 7 to 9 days of time to get my booked (choice'd) product.

It was suppose to be a gift. First, you guys didn't help me in upgrading the shipping method. Second, one of your colleague told me he'll make sure the order will be shipped and delivered asap. Now you're telling me it'll be shipped tomorrow. What the fish do I do with it now? Since more business is coming these days, you guys are behaving like a rude **. Nobody helped me in upgrading the shipping method, I couldn't cancel it now because the product is not available and won't be able to order it again. Basically I'm stuck with a product which I was suppose to present as a gift today. You don't seems to have an answer now because I've typed a paragraph and there is no response from you.

5 star review from last month must be a Amazon employee, because I just purchased a TV with the promise by customer service at Amazon to credit me a 20% discount after the purchase was made. What happened? Basically, I inquired with them about a coupon code offering 20% off at amazon from www.coupons.com. They could not figure out why the code would not work, customer service rep told me to purchase the TV, and if the accounting office at Amazon could not fix it, she would give me the discount! No deal, Amazon would not stand behind their representative, and would not even let me talk to the representative who made the promise to me. Go figure, I won't be purchasing anything from them in the future!

I had high expectations from Amazon (& thought its service would be at least par with that of Flipkart or Snapdeal). It was with this faith and trust that I placed few orders with them. All this time I didn't knew that they are here to cheat us. Amongst one of the order was attendance machine Essl E9 (Order #**). I got a deal as they were running SBI card disc of 10% & booked it on 7th Oct '14 & made the payment.

I have received junk on my last several purchases from Amazon and requested they close my account. They informed me via email that it was now closed, but simply lied. I want to sever ALL ties with this company, but they actually refuse to close it. This is an issue with the company and the garbage they sell.

I sold an ebook on Amazon through their Kindle program. Contract specified how and when royalty payments were to be deposited into my bank account. Seven days past when this should have happened, and I started making phone calls and sending emails. I received no meaningful help whatsoever. All I received was a regurgitation of the policy. I still have not received my thousands of dollars owed me. Nor have I received any explanation whatsoever.

Never ever buy anything from Amazon. They have given me the worst experience till date using their Hi-Fi American cheating techniques. First they send me a duplicate battery. Secondly they charge me more for early delivery and send the product late well after normal delivery time. They have a weird set of delivery fellow whose brains are below their knees. When I call back for extra delivery charges they send me a mail saying gift card. Who are they gifting my money? The mail date and expiry date of the so called gift card are the same day :). Hilarious isn't it? This is the famous way of cheating :).. When I callback for product return they do all flip turns for 15 days. Then when I start insulting their executives then one fellow takes the product and still my money hasn't been returned. This is the worst experience anyone can have. I guess Flipkart is 100 times better.

I traded in my iPhone 5 to Amazon for gift card. Phone was in great working order. Told me my trade in value should be $225. Got gift card for $100! Told me there were dead spots on my phone and image problems?! Bogus! Would not send back because I checked box saying that I would accept their counteroffer. Of course! The phone ran great!! You are better off taking to Apple Store, AT&T, or selling it yourself. Amazon customer service was not helpful and made me feel like I was trying to gouge them for $120! I will never shop Amazon again. May not even use the gift card on principle.

I purchased two Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphones from Amazon.com and two 2-year contracts with ATT Thru amazon. The phones work great and I am very happy with ATT's service. However, about a month after having the phones, I received an email from Amazon saying that I owed them 400.00 for one of the phones because it was not on a two year contract with ATT... My account was put on hold and I contacted customer service immediately. Well they could not help and said that they would have an account specialist contact me in 24 hrs.... this never happened. I contacted customer service 4 more times and sent numerous emails to have this resolved... I even called ATT and they called them to tell them that both the phones were indeed on a two-year contract since they were purchased by me. Again they said an account specialist would contact me in 24 hrs... again this did not happen.

I want to share details of the disgusting service I received recently. I placed an order for a Michael Kors watch and paid £155.13 with a 5 day delivery. I work in a hotel and 6 packages arrived, all for guests, and our Head Concierge signed for them. My watch was not there (I saw the deliveries and paperwork) and yet I received an email confirming that the watch had arrived and that he had signed for it. Wrong, wrong, WRONG. I then spent a great deal of time trying to speak to someone who could help as I called immediately to report the issue. The first lady I spoke to (Jai) was useless and didn't care, even going so far as to indirectly accuse the concierge of stealing it. He has worked here for 18 years and is the Vice President of a worldwide Concierge association so please don't insult us by implying that. Either we got disconnected OR, she hung up on me; but I didn't receive a call back. I received an auto email saying she would contact the carrier and get back to me within 2 days (didn't hear anything). Straight after that call I called back and spoke to a lovely lady (Caroline **) who showed empathy with my situation and I believe she genuinely wanted to help.

When Amazon launched their operations in India, I had high expectations from them since they claim to be the authority, the numero uno when it comes to e-commerce. It was with this faith and trust that I placed a few orders with them. Little did I know that soon all my trust and faith in Amazon was about to be shattered. I have placed quite a few orders with them in the last few months and every single time they have failed to deliver on time. Worse, they blatantly dish out false promises and try to mislead customers into believing them.

I ordered a pair of these pants and got the size wrong. I wanted XLarge but pushed the wrong key apparently. I received the small size Hakima and thought it would just be too complicated to exchange them since it was "probably" my error so I would still have to pay postage twice again. So, I just ordered them again in the correct XLarge size. I never received them and don't understand how to correct this. When I try to register a complaint (perhaps in the wrong place?), they say they can't post it....help.

My account was closed unfairly by the so-called Client Specialists because they, for some reason, linked it to someone else who apparently had a problem. No explanation was given other than "We have closed this account because our records show that we closed another account of yours for not meeting the terms of our Conditions of Use agreement. When we close your account for violating the terms of an agreement, you cannot open a new account or use another account to place orders on our site" and "I'm so sorry, but we can't offer any additional insight or action on this matter." Closing my account within the Holiday season has become a really big issue with me. Hope my complaint is taken into consideration by yourselves. Regards!

I have ordered a dell vostro 3446 from amazon on 10/10/14. While ordering the delivery was showing in 2-3 working days and after ordering it was showing 17/10/14 and today is 29/10/14. I am very disappointed with this delay in delivery and lost some good amount of money in indirect form and I will not leave this issue till Amazon recognizes the loss and do the correct.

I complained to Amazon 'Help' regarding a bad review that clearly contravened THREE of their own rules mentioned in their 'Guidelines'. They kept sending 'circulars' saying the rules were not being broken and that I should read them again.

I am really very disappointed to place an order from Amazon.in. The worst experience that I have ever been faced. My only concern is with the order that I had placed on 20th Oct 2014 - the expected date of delivery was 25-27 Oct, and however it has not yet delivered. I would never ever place an order in future and would never recommend to anyone to use this online portal. I traced an order and it is still in 'Transit' after an estimated date provided by Amazon team.

I order a book on amazon in August. It is now October and it shows no signs of arriving anytime soon. This is ridiculous. They also haven't given any reason why it is late and if it is even going to come. Terrible.

My son purchased a used iPod from Amazon and received a defective unit. Amazon authorized return, son returned merchandise using US postal service insured mail. Seller claims they did not receive it despite US Postal delivery verification. Amazon backed seller instead of buyer in dispute. Amazon's A-Z warranty is useless. I or my son will never use Amazon again. Rip off!!!

Amazon will only convert to my currency Euro after my transaction and not before. I have written to Amazon many times and just get the standard reply. Don't buy from these guys.. They are crooks, flaunting the law. I ordered a product last year and they gave me the highest currency rate. I only saw this after I purchased. I will never use Amazon again. Capitalism at its worst!

The transaction began in June. I sold a laptop computer for 900. The buyer complained that the keys were sticky and wanted a refund of 50 dollars. Despite having said this in my description of the computer I wanted the exchange to be over and refunded the 50. The next day I got a notification that Amazon had taken 850 dollars from my account and refunded the buyer for no reason. I have been calling since July to get my money returned to me. Over seventy-seven emails, a dozen phone calls, and nothing.

I have been an amazon buyer since 2013, and while I have only bought a few items, I had never had an issue with the company stabbing my credibility more than when I became an amazon seller. First of all, the order I received was shipped the day of the placed order, and arrived the next day. I wasn't even verified it had went through until I got on the phone knowing I had a doctor's appointment in 3 days and checked the shipment routing info and was highly disappointed that no one had even taken time to acknowledge that the shipment was received Nine days prior to my call.

In the 7 years of me using Amazon.com's services I have yet to be disappointed. If they do manage to screw something up, which they likely never do, all you have to do is contact them and explain the situation. They will make it right 99.9% of the time. Their customer service is the best I've EVER came across in my whole lifetime, that's why I'm just surprised that Amazon gets a one star on here.

I am not at all satisfy with your bloody services. This was the worst experience i ever had in online shopping. I ordered a Dell vostro laptop 3546, Oder Id ** on 10 of Oct. When I was placing the order it was showing me 2 to 3 business days to get it delivered, when it got placed it shown me estimated time of 15 to 17 Oct. What's the crap you are showing me? 02 to 03 working days when it’s done, it becoming 15 to 17 Oct. The worst part of your service is later on 17th I am getting a mail saying that “your order cannot be delivered in promised TAT so we'll deliver it till 21 Oct." I am calling you guys continuously no one is ready to help me out. I Spent around 30000 of my credit card, it’s not a small amount for me. I was never aware that Amazon is worst service provider otherwise I would have never ordered anything from you people. I am for sure gonna start typing mails and blogs about my feedback till the time I don’t get a good compensation for the same.

I had purchased HTC phone in November 2013 from amazon seller "Fiestacellphonestx". It is refurbished phone and comes with one year US warranty as described in listing as well as my order invoice. However since a month the phone is not working at all. When i contacted seller to fix it he told me "I will charge you for repair". Seller told me that he had sold used phone so it doesn't come with one year warranty and refusing to fix it. I checked with manufacturer HTC about warranty and they told my phone is out of warranty. I contacted amazon. Amazon initiated the dispute resolution however as per the A-Z guarantee policy, they cannot reimburse me because the order is more than 90 days old. So there is one mistake in the policy which preventing justice being served.

I ordered a Genuine Mercedes Benz Floor Mats on amazon from Gonwalt (AKA Sangera Volvo), but I never received the item because the seller wrote the wrong address... and so UPS delivered the item to the wrong address; but I never get my money back..

I had placed an order ** on Amazon on 1st of October and it's been 15 days. I have not received my product and they also put my account on hold so that I could not even raise a refund complaint. They never told me why they put my account on hold and they asked me to send a fax copy of my debit card. I sent the same 5 times and again they asked me to send the fax copy of my debit card's statement as according to them the information they needed. It was but there on my billing statement but matter of fact, it did had all the information like (BILLING NAME, BILLING ADDRESS, BILLING CONTACT NUMBER).

My review is based on my experience with adding Amazon Payments as an option on my shopping cart and also as a seller on Amazon. I'm a small online business owner that's been in business since 2003.. A little over a year ago, my shopping cart company added Amazon as an option to receive payments.. I've been using Paypal for the last 11 years, but thought it'd be great to offer an option for customers. Setting up the amazon system is easy enough and I haven't had any complaints from customers, so I think it's probably user friendly.. So my problem with them isn't their system exactly, but rather with their "rules".

I ordered a Leather Vertical Pouch for my Iphone5. First of all the seller said it would ship in 24 hours, it was shipped 2 days later. Once I got the pouch it was nice looking but after wearing it for a few days, it fell off my hip a couple of times and hit the floor. The clip on the back is very loose. Amazon asked to rate the product. I did. I gave it 3 stars with an explanation. Well the seller contacted me by email apologizing and wanted to give me a refund if I would change the unfavorable rating. I said I was not because it was the truth. The seller has been called my home 3x Saturday @ 10 pm at night just constantly ringing my phone. The seller call 2x on Sunday, I asked her not to contact me again. On Saturday night I contacted Amazon Customer service and explained - they said that was improper on the seller's part and they would notify their team and take care of the matter. So I decided to follow up with Amazon on Monday - explained again, I was told the same thing. Well tonight (Monday @ 9:45pm) the seller calls again 3x. I did not bother to answer my phone. Amazon is responsible for giving out my info and now they feel they have no responsibility in the matter.

I ordered a pair of $1000 boots on Amazon. I wanted them fast, so I paid for one-day shipping and was supposed to get them the next day. I went to work, but my husband was at home, specifically waiting for my boots. Literally. I was at the same time periodically checking the tracking system. All of a sudden it says "attempted delivery, customer unavailable or business closed, will redeliver tomorrow". I called my husband and he said, "I was sitting by the front door, waiting for the carrier - no one showed up". I asked him to check the door and the mail box for the door tag - NOTHING! To say the least I was beyond mad! He had to drive 20 miles to pick up the package, when I paid extra for the overnight shipping!!! Unacceptable!

On October 9th, 2014, this company charged my debit card for a Prime membership and it was $99. I never authorized this. After investigating this with my card company, I had to go to the company website to cancel a membership that I never ordered and now it takes them 3-5 days to process a refund! They had no right to charge my debit card for this! Now they are keeping my money withheld from me for too long. This is a prepaid debit card. I am now going to have to cancel this card and get a new one because I'm worried that they will again charge this card without my permission. I will never order anything from them again!

I can't cancel the free trial of AWS. Any attempt to contact Amazon AWS results in an endless loop of email addresses that are no contact or no reply. When I login to my account, it says I'm not authorized to make changes.

Amazon is a total joke. They have all these fancy pictures that are colorful of their products, but when they come in the mail they are small cheap and from Taiwan who would of thought bozos getting rich selling to American public using foreigners on the phone - explains why there's no jobs here. Tired of this company ripping off the public and nobody says anything. They love to drop their customers if you complain because they only steal, not help anyone.

I recently set up an account to sell on Amazon. I spent hours uploading and getting listing ready and arduously setting up the account. As soon as I had my first sell about 3 days after setting up my account, Amazon suspended my account and required me to deliver the product that I had listed without letting me have my funds!! This is robbery.

I have had my share of issues with Amazon. However, GENERALLY this platform is fair to both buyers and sellers. I am closing all of my 6,500 active listings on eBay and slowly moving to Amazon due to all the recent horrible changes on eBay, which became a nightmare for sellers. I would recommend Amazon as a selling platform.

I have never trusted any website company with my home phone number. Since I order from Amazon frequently I decided to include my home phone number with my order. A week after doing so I began to get solicitation from an overseas hacker called Macy-Blooming. I hate this they call every thirty - forty minutes. Warning do not include your personal details when placing an order with Amazon.

This issue has been resolved with Amazon. They used my debit card instead of store credit card and they corrected the order when I informed them of the error.

I got an email from Amazon.com yesterday informing me that I had a high number of returns and they were reviewing my account, with the possible outcome of closing it. Huh? Amazon sells me damaged or defective products, and because I ask to send them back my account will be closed? Seriously? I can't even discuss the matter with them because they insist that I must reply to them using the same email account they used to contact me. I have many email accounts, including a few that are receive-only. And since Amazon never informed me that they would require me to reply from anyone specific email account, I used a receive-only account when I signed up with them. I subsequently changed my email account of record to a send-receive account, but too late - they will still not allow me to contact them in any other way.

I used to use Amazon.com online service on rather regular basis. Once in a while I had to return items for the reasons such as defective items, or the item, (i.e. shoe or clothes) doesn't fit, or the very low quality of the product. But still I keep a large number of products. So there were no problems, until today when I got an e-mail that Amazon closed my account because I have too many returns. They didn't make any notes or notifications that they are going to close my account. I am very upset and think this is a terrible customer service. I assume they have too many customers now and they don't value their long time customers. I could live without Amazon but they SPOILED MY CREDIT HISTORY which is unacceptable. What can I do about it, please your advise.

I am a student and I was using Amazon text rental to rent my textbooks because I couldn't afford to purchase them. Amazon just recently took $345.00 out of my bank account with no warning because I was 2 weeks late on the return. The book was used & not even worth that much. Their contract states they suppose to send an email 15 days before the due date to warn me that the book is due. I received NO EMAIL!! When I called the customer service number I spoke to an American representative 1st who assured me my money would be reinstated. But then I was transferred to an outsourced foreigner who gave me a hard time.

I have been selling items on Amazon for almost a year now. As business started to pick up, I found it hard at times to keep up with the demand. That being said I would make up for a delayed shipment by shipping the order priority instead of the expected parcel post, with me absorbing the difference. Out of 42 reviews I received 3 less than perfect reviews. So I would say my system was working. Well Amazon didn't think so and shut me down. Stating I fell below their matrix guidelines and if that wasn't bad enough they can pretty much hold the funds I have coming to me for as long as they see fit. Don't believe me?...

I have been selling nosewarmers on Amazon for a few yrs. About 1 yr ago, I found that I wasn't getting much business. I started to check the Amazon site selling my products and what I found in the feedback portion was a negative comment about our nosewarmers. I thought that this comment would be purged after some time, but it wasn't. I terminated my business with Amazon hoping a clean break with them and the purging of this negative comment. I just looked again last week and the negative comment is still there. They have destroyed my business. Forget about selling and building your business on Amazon.

The World class shopping website "Amazon" is doing Fraud with me. They providing the discounts in the Products all are Fake. I have faced the Big issue recently. I am sharing the details below:

From amazon.com I got email for refund, now they are saying so many rules and cancelled my order without refunding my amount.

I received a Vizio 48 inch smart TV that was damaged during shipping. I tried to get an return authorization label. Got a label online, had to print it, cut it out. Fixed it to the package. They wanted over $100.00 bus to ship it back. Still haven't resolved the matter. Be careful where your order is coming from. No phone numbers, no people to talk directly to. I deal with Amazon on a regular basis. They really do a disservice to Amazon.com.

I ordered a Samsung (#Samsung) UN40H6350 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz Smart LED TV for $697.99. This was VERY costly, but I wanted it right away. I also paid $112.70 for 2-day shipping. Amazon sends the e-mail indicating it's coming (2-days) which is TODAY and I wait. Today arrives, I check "order status" and guess what -- the dang item hasn't even been shipped. So I "contact the seller" to be told: "Thank you for your email. The status of your order is still pending due to payment. We would like to address your concern at the very best. However, Amazon handles all monetary transactions. Our service is limited to fulfilling orders only. Kindly call them at 866-216-1072 so your request may be acted upon immediately. Your concern is of utmost importance to us. Should you need further assistance or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us through our Customer Care Hotline or send us an email. It will always be our pleasure to assist you. Thank you and kind regards [...]."

I hate to put it as Angry, I am truly just jaw-dropped with the way they handle customers and problems. I ordered through Christian Jewelry a necklace. I used my card to pay for the item. For a day it said that they were working on shipping it. Then I get an email that says they don't have the "ring" I ordered in stock at this time, I could cancel or wait. WELL since I ordered a "necklace," I didn't think waiting to get the wrong item or dealing with something that could be mistaken "this stupidly was worth it," I cancelled my order. They emailed me and told me my funds would be returned. 2 days later now, it is still a pending hold on my card statement online. I have looked the information over for my card issuer, and in order for a HOLD to be lifted, the merchant has to notify my bank/card that there is no longer a purchase or a need for the money to be waiting for their retrieval.

Ordered item and credit card charged. Amazon noted in stock and fulfilled by Amazon. Five days later not sent out and no communication as to why. This is the third time this has happened. Many complaints about sellers are not justified, since Amazon's fulfillment processes needs overhauling. Hey Jeff how about a software update and put the drone project on hold.

I am a new seller on Amazon. I recently launched my own Online Vintage Store Website, but also wanted to sell my non-vintage items on Amazon as well. Recently a buyer purchased a New Mikasa 8" x 10" Crystal Picture Frame without box from Amazon. Most items I sell are pre-packed and ready to ship. Because of this, I mistakenly sent the buyer the incorrect picture frame (Firth Ave Double 3" x 5" Crystal Frame new in box). She contacted Amazon and requested a return three days after item was shipped. I authorized the return of course and notified the buyer that once I receive the return package in the same condition as it was shipped I would ship the correct package, including free shipping.

Latest example is a two part order that was designed to arrive on the same day. Accessories will be delivered on time, but the camera will be delivered a day later. I ordered the camera first, with expected delivery today, September 16th. After order placed, I found accessories that were also prime eligible, and ordered them as well. I was notified that the camera "shipped" today at 12:09 pm PDT (day of expected arrival) and would be delivered on 9/17. I spoke with 3 customer service people. Took notes and promised to call back (DID NOT CALL BACK. Said that I had been sent an email on Sunday evening indicating that my camera would be delivered 9/17 (DID NOT RECEIVE THIS EMAIL), then reluctantly offered a 30 day PRIME extension.

I have become an online seller about a year ago. I have been selling on a variety of online marketplaces and I've had nothing but great experiences dealing with every platform's customer service. It is only common sense that these platforms would want their sellers to do well, so they sell more and bring in more seller fees. Recently I opened an Amazon seller account and 1 week into my 1 month free trial, I was surprisingly charged the $40 fee which wasn't due for another 3 weeks. After I called and asked for clarification, not only did I not receive any real reason for the "mistake", but it took 4 more weeks for the refund. So much for a month free trial.

Once again, Amazon show its disregard for its customers. It will not let me load one of my Kindle books to a friend. If this was a printed book I could but the Amazon police do not allow this option for my book and no explanation. So much for customer service.

I rented a book on May 15th. Apparently the book was due on August 15th. I did not receive emails as they were going to my junk mail. The emails from Amazon were going to my email but emails from the rental department were going to my junk mail. I attempted to return the book today (15 days late) and was told I could not and was charged 139.00 for the cost of the book. VERY poor customer service!!!

As per information on check out paid with credit card plus guaranteed delivery on Monday 15 September 2014. Today is Monday, 15th September 2014, and the item is not shipped yet. No one to talk or communicate just computer messages accepting but all of them coming back not delivered. My car is dismantled and unable to go to work. Don't have any more money to get the item somewhere else as paid them. Clicked on the delivery date to be changed to speed up the process and ended up for extra one month behind. Need my car to be able to go to work but look like no one care about the customer so long as the money in their pocket.

The seller Amazon sold me the wrong (fake) perfume. I bought the 1st at TJ Maxx and when I was almost out I looked online and saw that the seller "Amazon" was selling the set. I ordered and when it arrived I compared it to the one I bought at TJ Maxx (just to make sure I had gotten the right product) and guess what... it was not the same thing. The packaging was the same, everything about it was the same except the smell. It smelt floral when the original (the real one) was woodsy. I immediately checked on Amazon to see if it could be returned and guess what it can't. So I'm annoyed and upset because I just wasted good money. Not sure if I will use it because it is a counterfeit. Anyway, today I went to post my review and received an email with the heading "Your review of... Set Perfume... could not be posted to Amazon.com" and was asked to revise my comment because it violated some review policies. All I can say is that Amazon refuses to publish real comments.

I bought a $2400 fridge through amazon based on their A to Z guarantee. When it was discovered within 2 days of delivery, there was a very subtle dent and that the fridge was not operating properly, I tried to return the fridge. The seller acknowledged the damage but told me they would have it fixed. I wanted to return. Amazon told me I must return the fridge at my cost, which freight would be up to $1000 for a regular consumer. The seller was no help at all and they told me to deal with GE Repair.

Amazon notified me via email they closed my account due to my return history. I appealed this decision & asked to be provided with the place or policy which states returns are limited & would result in closure of my account, which they have failed to provide. Consequences: as a result, a negative trade item will be placed on my credit report, thus having a negative impact, drop in credit score, employment affected, violation of my consumer rights, mental, emotional & financial anguish due to my limited mobility and quality of life is greatly affected.

I purchased "Jean Prouve, 1901-1984: The Dynamics of Creation" from seller "BidDeal" through Amazon.com. The book sent was in French! BidDeal refused to refund, and Amazon refused to remedy the error. Amazon makes more money from the seller than the buyer, therefore they have little incentive to do the right thing. They forget they will lose a customer, and that customer may have a lot of friends!

We were seller as an third party seller selling vitamins & health related items. We had a 97% positive feedback rating. Our consumer metrics were all checked including the policy violation. Then one day for no reason our account was suspended. The reason - we were selling restricted products this was their original correspondence:

I enjoyed shopping on Amazon website until I purchased a rocking chair that I thought was made out of wood. I ordered this rocking chair for my elderly mother as a Christmas gift in Jan 2014. In Aug 2014, I visit my mother and found the chair falling apart. My mother weights no more than 140 pounds. I paid $169.52 for a rocking chair I thought was made out of wood but it wasn't.

Their customer service likely outsourced will give you different answers to the same question, on the different occasions. I stopped buying from them, and only go to their website to research but never to buy.

I ordered Multivitamin on 23/08 with amazon. And as per their delivery timelines, product was scheduled to be delivered on 04/09. I started following with among team from 04/09 after 4-5 calls of 30 minutes I realized following things:

5 days back I received a shipment from Amazon and they deliver me open shipment. Even I called Amazon customer care before open it, they people told me to open it, and I found cotton in the shipment. Now I am asking for my money but they are not giving me my money and saying on daily basis that it is in under process. Really very bad. Amazon is a liar company. Do not choose Amazon. Flipkart and Snapdeal is a best company for online shopping.

Amazon are garbage at Customer Support and are only after your money. I was a seller on Amazon by the name of "Sam Johnson Book shop" and I was selling books since last one year. I was really doing well on their marketplace. I was so excited, but my excitement was dashed after a year because Amazon sent me an email explaining that my account had been suspended for poor selling performance for next 90 days. After 90 days they said they are not going to transfer my funds as they think that mine account was engaged in fraudulent activity. They have kept around $47000 for seven months and now they don't want to release it to my account. Still I made a phone call to them a few of the times, but they never answered my queries and said me to contact seller-performance@amazon.com, through mails.

Amazon.com blocked the the posting of my following review: This review is from: Xanthan Gum - 14 Ounces - Gluten Free / Food Grade (Misc.). The box arrived with one side and the top ripped open. When I opened the box, almost all the SealedAir wrap was deflated. The package with the Xanthan Gum had been pierced and there was Xanthan Gum spread out within the delivery box. The SanDisk flash drive that arrived in the same box was covered with Xanthan Gum, even though it was in its own cardboard envelope. This was the second consecutive delivery received directly from Amazon.com where the delivery box was destroyed and the contents damaged.

I ordered a phone and a few clothing items for myself using my son's email account info through Gmail because at the time I did not exactly know how to use Gmail services and didn't want to go through the hassle of setting up one at that moment, so I placed my order using my boyfriend's MasterCard and billing info etc... and had them sent to me at my address using a different one from the card I was using with permission of course...

I ordered an item from an Amazon Marketplace seller that was processed and shipped by Amazon. Shipping was free via Amazon Prime. The item cost $32 and was charged to my Amazon Visa. When I received my package and looked at my invoice, I had been charged $290. I checked my Visa account and verified the account had been charged $290 by Amazon Marketplace. I contacted the seller, who told me Amazon handled the entire transaction, so I needed to contact Amazon Customer Service for a refund.

Amazon.com opened my seller's account for 30 days, just enough time for me to sell 25-30 items and then closed my account and held onto my money. They are not reporting all of our positive feedback to our account and have threatened to hold our money for 90 days. All of our customers gave us 5 reviews and there were NO complaints from any package we delivered.

Sir, I order F&D 2.1 Multimedia Speakers F-203G on 18th August 2014. And Amazon site show 29th August expected due date. But I have yet to receive my item. So help me.

I ordered five packs of Heel Liners from Pharmapacks through Amazon. Aside from the fact that they charged $2.99 on EACH heel liner BUT shipped them in the same box. The liners were less than $2.00 a pack and it took forever to get them. I used one within 3/4 weeks after receiving them and noticed the adhesive was stuck. I guess Pharmapack had them too long in the warehouse (hence, why they were so cheap) but yet the expiration date was still good. I contacted Pharmapack (via email and telephone). They told me it was a manufacturing problem (Aetna Felts). I got in touch with Aetna and they said they couldn't be responsible for something THEY didn't ship to me and for me to go back to either the seller (Pharmapack) or Amazon. I did and neither party will take responsibility for a defective produce and make the customer "whole" (we're talking less than $30). I have dealt with Amazon for a long time and generally have had no problems (timely response, timely refund, etc.); but this time - with this seller - NEVER AGAIN WILL I BUY ANYTHING FROM PHARMAPACK; and I'm very disappointed in Amazon.

I was billed for my purchase from Amazon Local for "3 man-hours of Cleaning Service" on July 28th. I have contacted the company several times only to be told they would get back to me, which they haven't! My voucher code: **. I am requesting a refund for $42 paid on the 28th.

I love Amazon and have never had a problem with them but the sellers on there I do have a problem with. I bought a Used Chemistry book not knowing I would need a access code to do online homework. My college that I go to does not offer access codes by itself so I had to buy a whole new book which costs me way too much. So I contact my seller to return the Chemistry book I bought from Amazon and he denies it saying all used books are final. You're just out to make money and that's it. Any college student would understand my predicament. But due to this I do not really want to buy books from Amazon again because of the sellers on there. I wasted money cause of this and it's not fair at all!

I ordered several book items and chose the FEDEX shipping form to my physical address. I of course paid the premium fee to do so. Well, past the promised delivery date I received an "Undeliverable" notice. This was curious since we have FEDEX deliver to that address regularly.

I purchased a $400 phone through Amazon from a third party seller. Had the phone a few days with a tremendous amount of problems. I called the manufacturer of my specific phone and was told that my phone was not in their database and that they actually had never made a phone with my model number. It was a counterfeit! And where does Amazon come into the picture? When it's time to tell me I'm not eligible for a refund or replacement. I can still return the phone, but the seller will most likely refuse a refund, in which case the phone would be destroyed because they don't accept counterfeit items. Seriously?! You can sell them, you just can't service/repair/replace them??? Makes total sense. I will never buy anything from Amazon again.

I have order a product in Amazon india via Order No: **. I was informed the product is shipped within 2 days but has not reached even after 10 days. Till then nobody from amazon cared to inform me the status. When I complaint many times, I was assured for refund. ONE month gone. Still refund not received. Amazon India is an unreliable seller. I found FlipKart very prompt in delivery and communication. Price wise also Snapdeal and flipkart are cheaper than amazon india. Boycott amazon india.

I bought Bugatti Toy car and according to Amazon website it is new car but I have not received new car. It was huge embarrassment for me since it was gift for my nephew. I have been trying to contact with seller but no one answering my phones. I already send the toy back since it is false information to customers. I hope as courtesy someone will contact with me. I will never buy anything from this seller again and the worst part Amazon is not even protecting its customers. They told me on the phone "they cannot guarantee that I will receive new toy if I order again even though it says clearly NEW". Thank you for great customer service!!!!

The product page says free returns but when you go to return they charge you for the return shipping. The sellers charge for return shipping, but you don't know that.

Your email from the nameless "Account Specialist" stating "we have been unable to confirm your account information which is required in order to utilize our service" does not provide enough information for ME to understand why YOU "regret we will not be able to allow your account to transact in the future".

I had placed an order no. ** for a shoe which was dispatched by Amazon via tracking ID **. Since both my wife and I are working, the house is locked during day time. My wife gets home by 4:00 pm. The Amazon Transportation Services P Ltd has been coming home with the parcel at 1:30 pm every day and going back saying house locked. On four occasions last week, we spoke to customer care executive of Amazon to deliver after 5:00 pm. We were assured that next day the delivery will happen at 5:00 pm. But again, the courier comes at 1:30 pm and returns. The courier does not call me on the mobile number, does not leave any contact number for us to contact him as many couriers do by inserting a slip under the door nor is the address given for us to pick it up.

Should I buy expensive items from amazon.com? Why not? Though there is a risk that I did not see the item yet and after delivery I may find this is not the item I wanted. But amazon allows me to return the item and get refund (I may have to pay the shipping charges). So I thought it is all right to buy expensive items from amazon. NOT TRUE FOR ME. I recently had an unpleasant experience. From amazon I bought a laptop running windows 8.1. It was sold by a third party seller named amaz247. After receiving the item I discovered that it does not have touch screen. Shocked! A $700 laptop with windows 8.1 does not have touch screen? Alas, the seller did not mention anything about touch screen in the item description and I assumed it has touch screen. Then I thought no worry, I can return it.

Amazon is advertising a kindle unlimited for 9.99 a month. I sign up a couple days for it since I practically live on their website. On 8/14/2014 I went online to buy books that were free for me to buy since I signed up for their monthly program of 9.99. I have that my bank card I have on file for there were charge each time till it went overdraft. I called them to report the issue. I was hung up on twice. I ask to speak with a supervisor, I got one on the line, he said his name was Andy **, explain to him that my bank card that I have on file was charge for all transaction till all the cash I have on it for my book purchase went on overdrawn. He fought with me that I'm lying when I have my account open looking at all the pending transaction and he refuse to let me talk. He was speaking over me, calling me a liar. He hung up the phone.

Will somebody please explain to either me or Amazon.com just what:

I bought a Kindle, which proved defective after about 7 - 8 months. I was overseas at the time and unable to send in the Kindle to get fixed, though I tried to fix it. I called to get it fixed as soon as I got back, but by then, I was just outside of the warranty. Not only were they unsympathetic that they did not fix the Kindle before the warranty, but seemed happy to have the opportunity to get me to pay for a new Kindle. Amazon only cares about making money and will happily get you on technicalities. My experience is that they have no concern for what is right or for the customer whatsoever. Why support a business like that?

I ordered a cell phone from Amazon.com and after few months the phone's display went bad. When I contacted the phone manufacturer for warranty support, I was told that the phone cannot be found in the manufacturer database. The phone sold on Amazon was a counterfeit phone and no one helped me - neither Amazon nor the manufacturer. I was shocked to see Amazon website selling fake items. I would never buy anything from Amazon.

I've been Amazon customer for a couple of months and nothing went wrong from my side BUT all of sudden my account was put on hold and then closed. There were still some pending orders and I did not receive them, neither my money was refunded. No response from Amazon. The last letter I got from them was signed as "account specialist", no name, no phone number - nothing! It's unbelievable how Amazon treat its customers. I'm not sure why they're still in business with that kind of attitude.

For my birthday I received an Amazon gift card. So I went online to buy things. The next day I had an email saying my account is on hold because my bank won't approve my address billing. How is this even possible when I didn't have any credit or debit card. I contacted customer service, they never answer why my account is on hold and they say I won't receive my items that I buy. I spent 50$!!!!

Silicone keyboard for my apple 2 ipad does not attach to the device. I am returning it and want to obtain a return label. The product is defective.

Amazon are garbage at Customer Support and are only after your money. I have had the same account issue with a Kindle I purchased 3 years ago. Although it is not the Kindle, they have replaced it twice despite the fact it is obviously not the issue. They are always polite during chat or phone conversations but do nothing to help, and lie about getting someone to contact me. (This has happened on both my recent discussions with them.) My account still doesn't download a book properly, and so far I estimate over 200 of my own hours talking to them and getting the system to function. Amazon are the worst company I have ever had to deal with, total rubbish. And suggest anyone who is after any of their services to look elsewhere for a solution.

I opened my Amazon account back around Father's Day. I placed an order then no problems. Service was great. This past week, I made a purchase, used a different card but shipped to same address and everything goes through fine. Today, I go to log onto my account to find that I do not have access. I call customer service and they inform me my account is on hold. I ask them why, they say they are unable to tell me that I would need to contact an Account Specialist but that they can only be contact via email. So they would get some information to verify the payment information I used because that is usually a cause for a hold and submit it to them.

I had order a shoe to Amazon. I had paid through my ATM. Now Amazon is saying your order is COD, you have to pay. I had contacted many times to Amazon - the result is 0.

I sold an item on Amazon. Mailed it out US Postal and it came back a week later with the address crossed off with marker. I immediately emailed the seller to find out what was going on. He confirmed address with me and said post office must have made mistake to resend. I mailed out again from Pennsylvania to Chicago. Two days later he sends email cursing me out and calling me a thief. Takes more than two days to go from Pennsylvania to Illinois. He then filed for A-Z claim and got a refund and kept the product. So basically I paid him to take the product from me.

Shipper tells me to cancel order, so he can jack up the price! The seller usually say something is wrong with the order or it's out of stock. This is the SECOND TIME this has happened to me. I go back and look, and sure enough, it's IN stock, and the price has gone WAY UP from my purchase the day before. I'm about done with them. And I order 3-4 times a month. They can put that Amazon credit card where the sun doesn't shine.

I had placed the order for SONY Headphones MDR-Q140 Headphones Headsets from Amazon.com on 19th July. But they supplied duplicate Sony product and now they don't want to replace it.

I ordered a LED strip light waterproof flexible light strip 12V with 300 DMD LED from "Guaranteed Response to any problem within 24 hours". I ordered it 5/22/2014 estimate delivery date June 19, 2014 - July 7, 2014. When I tried to contact them via email, they are no longer contacted to "Amazon" and my email could not go thru. So I can't seem to receive a refund/replacement. I'm trying to find another way to contact them. In the meantime, I'm going to file a complaint with the Attorney General, that office is usually very good at locating and resolving issues. Even though my item didn't cost much...there is a principal involved.

Amazon sent me an email saying I bought some item! I copied the item number, searched it on Amazon, and it was some belt I had never heard of! Hopefully I don't have to pay for it! I feel like this is either a scam, or someone hacked into my account! If this happens to you, tell me on my Instagram **.

On 7-3-2014 I placed an order with a seller on amazon.com, for a figure. A week later after I bought the figure, the seller contacted me & figure not in stock. Amazon won't let me leave negative feedback, they are censoring my feedback.

#AMAZON FAIL! My audio recording will be posted later. An email problem/question I sent was replied with by a happy response to CANCEL my Kindle Unlimited subscription due to an apparent total lack of command of the English language as the words cancel & subscription were not even in the email. Two calls later, which I timed at a total of 57 minutes, and multiple refusals to transfer me to a customer service rep in the States with a less severe foreign accent and better understanding of the English language, I was hung up on by the Amazon Kindle rep in the US when I explained I had previously started recording the conversation at 30 minutes. Steven stated he would not help or talk to anyone recording the conversation and promptly hung up. Apparently that only goes one way where they say they can record you and a conversation for "training and quality". What have they got to hide? The entire customer service experience went from one issue to another, from bad to worse.

I never ordered Amazon prime. I did try the trial out many months ago and did not think it was worth the extra money to continue. Their video content was pretty lame. I don't order that much from them so clearly was not worth the money. I was charged two times in the past two months for a prime membership I never wanted. They refunded the money but it’s annoying to have to worry about a glitch in their system that is charging me $100+.

On July 10th, I purchased a wedding band from Amazon (I WEDDING). Delivery, 07/16 - 07/21. I DO NOT HAVE MY RING. WEDDING is on Saturday. I spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone WITH NO SATISFACTION. Apparently it is not Amazon's problem because they are not the seller. Funny, I purchased it from their website. That in my opinion makes them the seller. SO NO RING - NO REFUND. UNHAPPY EXPERIENCE. I WILL NEVER SHOP THERE AGAIN AND I WAS A REPEAT CUSTOMER!!!

I have placed Order with Amazon India for Blood Pressure monitoring system (Order no **) with commitment for delivery around 12-17 July '14. But today is 21-July 2014 and Amazon don't have any updates on delivery. Neither they are refunding my money back. Beware of Amazon India. Amazon India is one the fraudest e-commerce company in India and no-one should buy anything from them. Amazon have opened their Indian operation to cheat people with their money. Avoid purchasing things from Amazon.

I bought a book and never received it. Seller JANISABELLA did not provide a tracking number either. When I complained, I got the automatic reply that my claim appeal is denied because the order was placed more than 90 days ago. Since I never got a notice of shipment I had completely forgotten about this order until now, when I returned from a long summer vacation. So, buyer beware.

My Amazon account was hacked. I received an email thanking me for purchases I did not make. Two items were "purchased" from the same "Amazon seller". One was charged to my AmEx account, the other charged to my Visa account. After dealing with the credit cards, I contacted amazon customer service to straighten things out. At some point I could not log into my account because, "for my protection" Amazon put a hold on my account. We cleared that up, but a short while later there was another "hold" on my account. As time went by there were more and more holds on my account. I was in tears by the 4th and 5th holds. Yesterday I discovered a sixth "hold" on my account.

Although I ordered what was represented as new, Nikon USA spoke with me and they did not believe I had a USA warrantied model, and I should contact Amazon. I did and was offered a replacement, but I said no thanks, just want to return. No problem until I posted about my experience in Amazon discussions. Then they closed my account, citing excessive returns. In the past year, I've received two defective cameras, at least five cameras that had obviously been used and returned (custom functions set up in camera, user installed focusing screens), excessive numbers of shutter clicks yet no problem, until I posted publicly. Now my account is closed. It's just as well, as I would never ever buy even a book from Amazon again. I have lost all confidence in them as a dealer.

I never opted for prime membership; amazon.com decided to make me a prime member and slip in a charge of $99, which I paid and then took out just in time before my bank sent in the check to them. They apologized and reversed the charges, but it has left a sour taste in my mouth. A big company like amazon.com can slip in charges like a crooked identity thief. Unbelievable; let us hope they have a better explanation than a mere apology. I urge fellow shoppers to check the credit card statements before losing your hard earned $99 to trickery.

I am reading the reviews of Amazon and I have to state that they have always stood by me when there is a problem with an order. Of course, I use the live chat when I have a problem and so far any issue has been satisfactorily resolved. I can speak only from a buyer's perspective, however. There was an issue with a battery for a cell phone - the seller had advertised that it was a genuine Samsung battery, but when I received it, it was not. Amazon immediately shipped me a replacement from another seller at no cost to me.

Did you know there is NO guarantee with the things Amazon sells on their website? If you get something defective, You will pay the shipping back to Camel F Egypt, and you better buy insurance for when the scammers say they never received the merchandise back. These things add up. I ordered a security camera from Amazon. When I received, it did not work. Amazon sent me a label (that was nice of them) to attach to the package I had to pay the shipping on. The item cost $62, the shipping was $15, insurance would of been another $14, so I didn't get the insurance. Seller said they never got it. Oh well, I learned a valuable $77 lesson. If Walmart, Home Depot or Bed Bath & Beyond don't sell it (those are co's who know how to treat a customer), it's probably no good.

Bad, bad. Would have get them step aside. For no good reason after making all efforts and reaching a 1k feedback with 95% positive, Amazon just shut me off from their freezing over $20k inside till coming October. Now my bank is corrupted with negative 10k balance. Now I can't bring them to court as it is stated in their website. Can't talk to anyone. Can't get hold of seller performance. Can't do anything with them???? Is that in reality I need to spend an extra 5k bucks to get my FBA products returned. So total loss is now almost all my profit there but I need it just to pay debt and can't get it?

I ordered a whole lot of stuff from Amazon; I elected to use the new pay-by-check option. Amazon processes checks through Telecheck, and those dumb Texans bounced the check. My bank didn't bounce the check; my bank never even saw the check. Customers should be cautious, and probably continue to use credit cards.

I sold a book a few weeks ago. I have the settings on Amazon so I will receive an email whenever I get a message from a buyer. Well I hadn't gotten any emails until two days ago when I received one telling me a buyer filed an A-Z claim. Looking further into it, the buyer said the book arrived in worse condition that I listed it at, even though I very clearly read the options when listing it. They filed the claim because they had messaged me twice asking for a refund with no response from me. I checked my messages to find that Amazon was having trouble receiving them, which is why I was never informed of them.

A customer placed an order through us on Amazon and we shipped it to the address they gave us. The tracking proves it was delivered. They contacted us saying they moved and to ship another product even though we already shipped it to the address they gave us. We refused and said to contact the current homeowner to refuse the package so it gets shipped back to us. They instead contacted Amazon and now Amazon is telling me to refund the customer without any return. Here is the email I received from Amazon:

On May 25th, I ordered what was advertised as a NEW Kirby vacuum for $900.00, and shipping of $21.99. I ordered the vacuum and paid the $921.99 fee. I received said vacuum and while unpacking it I discovered a sales contract that had been drawn up in 2011, making this a 3-year-old vacuum. To top it off, everything in this package had been used. All the brushes had long curly black hair wound around them, and the shampoo bottle opened and used. Each piece had dirty residue on them. I then e-mailed the seller who was very angry and insisted on it being new. He left his number and my husband called him. He would only take it back if I paid $200.00 shipping fees. After complaining to Amazon, I filed a A-Z claim. Amazon told me to return the vacuum and they would pay the shipping, which they have. Now I have only been credited $700.00. I keep calling and am told they are reviewing my claim and to wait 1-2 days. I have had it with Amazon!!!!!

Order #**. I had booked an order. At the time of delivery got a call from courier person asking me to collect the package from his office. This is not for what I had done online shopping. I was not well and had been admitted in hospital. DTDC courier person was rude to me. I had narrated the whole incident to customer care @ amazon. 7 days passed neither amazon had solved the issue nor redelivered nor returned the Money back nor any reply mail. All mails received are auto generated from amazon.

I ordered Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras from Amazon.com on July 4th 2014, and on July 8th, received the package. The package had the original Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM printed on the box, and the warranty cards also printed the serial number and mode of IS II USM. This is my first Canon telephoto lens, so I opened the package and found a brand new lens. Curious about the look and the feel of this lens (have not held one before), I inspected the lens in more detail.
