Hello everyone,

I've recently receieved an email from Amazon stating that my account has been deactivated in accordance with section 3 of the Amazon Services Business Solutions Agreement.

The initial email I received in the Performance Notifications stated and asked me to provide the following;

-----------

-- Bank account statement and credit card statement.

-- A valid government-issued photo identity document such as driver’s license or passport. The document must include the full name, date of birth, ID number, expiry date, signature of the bearer if applicable and country of issuance or country of citizenship.

-- A business license, if applicable.

-- A utility bill dated for piped gas, natural gas, electricity, piped water, mobile phone, fixed-line phone, or internet service.

--------

I've submitted the requested documents however upon submission, I received second Performance Notification from Amazon that stated that my account remains deactivated and somehow my account was flagged as having potentially engaged in 'deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity'. This is confusing as I had not yet used my account to for listing, selling or reviewing yet.

Afterwards I acquired and submitted all requested documents (bank statements, ids, license, new utility bill) once more and made sure all of the details match my Seller Central.

Please could you guide me on how to resolve this issue? I have attempted to contact the support but the responses I have received so far have not been helpful.

I am posting the full perfomance notifications below as additional information. Thank you for your kind assitance.

Hello,

I'm working with an independent contractor (graphic designer) to help revamp my brand store. How do I allow her access to my brand store but not to any financial and sensitive data? When I look in "user permissions" I see only 3 types of users and they all seem to have access to sensitive data. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I created a case to request support so I know what information I need to send to reactivate my account, since I live with my parents and the utility bill is in my mother's name, I was suggested to send my birth certificate.

I then sent all the information including:

My citizen identification card front and back

My bank account statement

My family's utility bill for April 2025

My birth certificate with the local stamp of my residence

and on May 19, 2025 I received a notification that:

Hello,

I am really shocked by that, I don't understand what I did wrong

In the past, I only sold products under the FBA model, all my products did not violate any Amazon policies, the account status was always in the best condition, and Amazon accused me of participating in illegal activities.

Now I have 848 products in stock.

I have to pay a lot of money for goods, monthly storage fees to Amazon, advertising fees and I still haven't recovered my capital and Amazon suspended my account for a reason that I did not do.

Now I am very scared and don't know what information to send so that Amazon can reactivate my account.

I am a new graduate and had to borrow a lot of money to be able to do my first FBA trip.

I really hope to receive help or assistance here so that I can reactivate my account.

Please help me.

Hi everyone,

I’m struggling to get a proper reconciliation on one variation of my product (ASIN B0DN24YN1L, Red color).

Inbound shipment (2024): 250 units received;

Units sold (per Manage FBA Inventory): 96Units

Currently showing as available: 123

Shortage: 31 units

What I’ve done so far: Pulled Inventory Adjustments, Received Inventory, and Reserved Inventory reports—no record of removals, returns, or transfer holds that explain the gap. Opened three cases with Seller Support, attaching a spreadsheet that shows the math. All were closed with the standard “no discrepancy found” response. I’d appreciate advice on: The most effective wording or template for an FBA reimbursement request. How to escalate beyond Level 1 when the evidence is clear but tickets keep getting auto-closed. Whether the “Seller Forums Escalations” megathread still moves the needle, or if there’s a better route .Thanks in advance for any pointers!
