UK- Amazon want to charge me for VAT that I'm legally not liable for - Please help

I received an email from Amazon requiring me to pay over £2000 in VAT fees from when I first started selling on my B2C sales in the uk. They are claiming I am required to pay the fees on the basis of suspecting that I’m a EU/Non UK resident. I am based entirely in the UK and my bank account and address is all UK based.

My disbursements have all been blocked until the vat fee is paid however am I not liable for it. I don’t believe I’m required to pay VAT to UK B2C sales as I’m not outside of the UK

I have had several back and forth with seller support to explain/Clarify my UK status but all I’m receiving is generic responses and no action

The situation is very stressful and I am unsure what to do & any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated
