DD +7 for Dummies
Apologies for starting another thread on this subject.
As usual with Amazon I am completely annoyed and baffled.
As some sellers may know I have recently posted about the lack of sales over a 30+ day period. This lack of sales should have made it easy to follow the workings of dd+7
DD+7 appeared to kick in for me at the time my sales stopped at the beginning of March. At that time I had just £3.50 in my account. I still had not been paid the £3.50 when I suddenly had a flurry of sales in April. I still have not been paid anything. A few days ago I checked the payments page and i think what happed was that my £3.50 was taken by Anazon's fees on the new sales (naturally Amazon are first in line!!). I was now left with a debit balance which Amazon threatened to collect at the end of the payment period. Nothing has actually been taken from my bank account. I then sold a few more books. By now another payment period has passed - still no payment to me. I checked the amazon payment page and there are all sorts of number on it. No doubt an accountant would be able to follow it but I am not an accountant! Amazon make it so complicated for people like me !
The one thing I could just about understand is that I now have about £50 in deferred payments and that on 17 April amazon will be taking £1.90 from my bank account. When I might get paid anything is anyone's guess.
As I am typing this I notice there is no category covering "Payments to sellers" !!!! so I've put my post in "fulfill orders"

If you list just the deferred transactions by changing the "Transaction status" drop-down in the Transaction view, you'll see the date each transaction is expected to release. On this date, normally quite late in the evening, the funds should move to the figure next to the "Request payment" button in the Statement View.

WIth DD+7 Amazon commission fees are deferred and not taken out of your available balance. Other fees such as monthly subscription fees such at monthly subscription fee and advertising are taken out of your available balance.
If you buy postage through Amazon then this is taken off your available balance.
If your balance is negative on your disbursement day they will charge your card with the balance on your Amazon account.
