Has anyone successfully won an appeal for a customer product reviews policy violation. I have been issued one yet never sold the product and am unable to answer the questions in the appeal. Any help would be much appreciated

Is it possible you could explain the situation a little more? And do you have the ASIN for the product in question? Don’t want to give the wrong advice is all! I can have a look for you and see :slight_smile:

I had one of these. I couldn’t get it removed and had to wait 180 days for it to drop off.

I still have no idea what I was being accused of.

It is not just a pain it is really stressful. I had my account at risk for 6 months and as I had no idea what I was being accused of they could easily have accused me again and destroyed my business.

@Gaz I’m sorry that you’re going through this; it’s a real pain. Are you using Helium 10 or similar by any chance? I had some email templates set up a while back that I was using to try and improve customer experience by checking in etc and they got flagged by Amazon as potentially trying to solicit reviews/spam customers. Complete rubbish of course but we all know how unpredictable the bots can be at times. It ended up causing a series of violations on the account that led to 2 separate 30 day suspensions from initiating contact with buyers and then an indefinite communication suspension. I’m wondering if you have a similar sort of thing set up that may have caused this without your knowledge?

same happened here around a month ago. appealed it explaining the ASIN was never used by us and we don’t solicit or post reviews on any amazon product. appeal denied, I should have expected this and I have learned my lesson: NEVER don’t post reviews on items you have never sold and NEVER don’t solicit reviews on items you have never sold.

I hope you learned your lesson too!!!
