Lost Buy Box (Featured Offer) MEGATHREAD

I'm getting nowhere with Seller Support (Live Chat & Phone), made a ticket asking for escalation, E-Mailed CEO's office and got a pretty rude reply, I'm at a total loss as to what to do. I have lost the buy box for ALL of my key products and best sellers, I am the brand owner, I am the only offer.

I am stunned at how little support there is from Amazon, I knew it was bad but I had no idea it was THIS BAD. Absolutely no transparency what-so-ever, nothing on performance notifications, account health is perfect, no violations, I am enrolled on the new Account Health Assurance scheme (which gave me peace of mind for all of 3 days).

With the CEO's office giving me the cold shoulder, seller support sending me links to 'Seller University', spending in excess of 10 hours trying almost everything on my account blindly, I'm at a complete loss sitting here with next to no sales. So my last resort is this... a mega thread... I'm hoping with enough people complaining about the issue, Amazon MAY acknowledge this problem as a bug/glitch before I have to file for bankruptcy (no exaggeration) and when they do, I also expect no apology or compensation.

ATTENTION: First piece of actual explanation I've received after this was resolved for me was a closing note from the CEO's office:

Greetings from Amazon Selling Partner Support Executive Escalation Department.

In relation to your featured offer issue I can confirm this has been reviewed by our technical team who confirmed the fix as the override has been granted,

All your listings should be now eligible for the featured offer / buy box privileges,

I would recommend anyone who sees this please email CEO's office managingdirector @ amazon (.co.uk) for a quicker resolution until there's a permanent fix in place!

We have had this exact problem on and off for 2 years and it does seem more common on the US forums. The mods over there ask for a case number and fix it by working with an internal team, an example here...

https://sellercentral.amazon.com/seller-forums/discussions/t/1a74da92-d4f8-4aeb-b559-a16476f0d65b

However every time it does happen I cannot get any help from Amazon in the UK including the MD office and eligibility randomly returns, usually after 24 hours but most recently it took 10 days.

I'm experiencing the same issue. Since April 27th, almost all of my top-selling ASINs in my UK store have lost the Buy Box simultaneously. Opening a case has had no effect. Many other sellers are facing the same situation. However, Amazon hasn't shown any concern whatsoever.
