Account under review
Received the following from Amazon this morning. I have £6315 which is now not available to transfer, I’ve turned off selling shipped current orders and set my professional plan to downgrade to individual from next cycle.
Does anybody know how long this takes? I’m going on holiday in 3 weeks and ideally won’t be longer than that, I’ve copied and pasted the email below

They are a maximum of 30 days. Generally these reviews are done behind the scenes such that a seller may not even know. Sometimes they do require the seller to take some action, as per above.
Edit - they don’t seem to have included a link to the actual policy:

Also if you are posting 50-100 items a day you really should look into an account with royal mail
Seller_3di7P6gi1JyqG
Update, they didn’t accept that they have the tracking numbers so I’ve input manually all 30-40 that I could find as 95% of my items go untracked
They also asked for invoices which I sent
They asked for my business email address (I don’t have one) my business website (I don’t have one) and my business bank account as it says on file
This is the email I received earlier today

Looking at your feedback, appreciate youre selling and posting a lot but its an incredibly high rate of items not received over the whole month, perhaps you do need to look at how theyre posted, what envelope do they go in, do they definitely have the right postage on, are your addresses and return address clear?
Also, are the card cloud ones your brand? and do you include the free insert?
