Urgent: Account Remains Deactivated
by Seller_KCr3iVJ1MYVaL
Amazon replied

Hello everyone,

I've recently receieved an email from Amazon stating that my account has been deactivated in accordance with section 3 of the Amazon Services Business Solutions Agreement.

The initial email I received in the Performance Notifications stated and asked me to provide the following;

-----------

-- Bank account statement and credit card statement.

-- A valid government-issued photo identity document such as driver’s license or passport. The document must include the full name, date of birth, ID number, expiry date, signature of the bearer if applicable and country of issuance or country of citizenship.

-- A business license, if applicable.

-- A utility bill dated for piped gas, natural gas, electricity, piped water, mobile phone, fixed-line phone, or internet service.

--------

I've submitted the requested documents however upon submission, I received second Performance Notification from Amazon that stated that my account remains deactivated and somehow my account was flagged as having potentially engaged in 'deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity'. This is confusing as I had not yet used my account to for listing, selling or reviewing yet.

Afterwards I acquired and submitted all requested documents (bank statements, ids, license, new utility bill) once more and made sure all of the details match my Seller Central.

Please could you guide me on how to resolve this issue? I have attempted to contact the support but the responses I have received so far have not been helpful.

I am posting the full perfomance notifications below as additional information. Thank you for your kind assitance.

Account risk
by Seller_c5onUBjz4IwX1

Anyone can help on this?

I read the policy that Amazon claimed which is unsuitable inventory policy.

I believe it is referring to FBA inventory. But the key is that I never use FBA to sell items. Meanwhile, Amazon mentioned that some listings were deactivaed during review, but I didn't see any listings in the performance notification. So so so weird !

Any advice on this? Should I just complete the video verification ? Since I dont have any inventory in FBA, do I need to submit invoice or receipts?

We are writing to inform you that your account is at risk of being deactivated in accordance with Section 3 of the Business Solutions Agreement if you do not follow the procedure outlined below. Amazon’s Business Solutions Agreement can be found at https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/1791.

Why is this happening?

We have taken these measures because we believe that your account is offering items that are unsuitable and may have been used to engage in deceptive or illegal activity that harms our customers, other selling partners, and our store. During this review, the listings mentioned below may be deactivated and you will be unable to initiate a removal request for any impacted inventory. Our unsuitable inventory policy can be found here: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/GH4YYXNDRW9BSZEN.

Brands: Dyson

How can I address the issue?

1. Access the following link:

2. Follow the on-screen instructions to upload the required documents and connect with an associate.

Who should attend the video interview?

The owner and operator of this account should attend this verification interview. Depending on your business model, we understand there may be additional business partners who are integral to your business operations. These additional parties may also attend the verification interview as long as they have substantiating documentation showing their relationship to the business. After your verification interview is complete, we will review the results and respond with the outcome within 5 business days.

What happens if I do not sign-up for virtual identity and supply chain verification?

If we do not receive a request through the above form within 14 days of notification, we will conduct a separate investigation to evaluate your account and if we find that you have engaged in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; or have abused our systems or repeatedly violated our Policies that protect our customers and selling partners, we may deactivate your account and withhold some or all funds in your account.

We’re here to help

If you have questions about the information requested above or if you believe the this email has been sent in an error, please contact us by following the instructions in the banner on the top of your Account Health page (https://sellercentral.amazon.com/performance/dashboard).

Thank-you,

Amazon

Buyer picked item up after A to Z granted
by Seller_WAZNnMBpd99sI

Buyer picked item up after A to Z granted

by MuggyWeld

updated 2 months ago

111-9451380-6124206 USPS attempted delivery, buyer was unavailable. They emailed to ask where the item was, I told them to pick it up at the post office. They filed an A to Z claim. Claim granted. I appealed. Claim granted. Then buyer picked up the $200 item from the post office. No option to appeal. What are my next steps?

USPS tracking number 9305520111411060814606

The item was picked up 3/27 and Amazon seller-funded the appeal 3/29.

Case ID 17507997461

The answer Amazon is preventing us to give you:

Amazon has helped to defraud you.

They are not following the rules and policies.

Why are you?

Hi all,

I’m reaching out here as I’ve exhausted normal support channels and need this escalated ASAP.

On June 11, a disbursement of $173,114.16 was released from my Amazon US seller account. It was not deposited into my bank account, and when I checked the disbursement detail, I saw it was sent to a bank account ending in 662 — which I’ve never added, authorized, or seen in my deposit methods.

Worse, the funds were converted into EUR 147,874.51 via Amazon Currency Converter — something I’ve never opted into. I also never received an email confirming a bank change, which Amazon normally sends when banking info is updated.

This is either a massive internal error or a security breach that Amazon didn’t properly flag — and the money is now gone from my seller account.

So far, I’ve:

Opened a case in Seller Central (case ID: 17910265871)

Sent escalation emails to payments-investigate, seller-performance, cis, and jeff

Secured my account (reset password, phone number, and 2FA)

Received no confirmation that the issue is being properly investigated

Support keeps merging cases instead of treating this like the $173,000 stolen disbursement that it is.

Can a moderator or Amazon escalation team PLEASE step in and route this to someone who can trace the funds and provide a proper update?

I purchased this item. The seller includes a card inside the product itself (not the packaging) that offers a $50 Amazon gift card in exchange for a 5-star review. I have reported this to Amazon with photos to substantiate the violation but Amazon takes no action despite their policy: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=G8CXDFT9GLRRSV3G. I'm sure Amazon will reply here with a snippet of their policy but they don't actually enforce it. I suspect because this benefits Amazon with $50 in additional sales through the gift card, they look the other way.

Product: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBHLZ7CV

Seller name: Reieset Group

Business Name: lengshuijiangshimilemaoyiyouxiangongsi

Hello there,

ASIN: B0FC3WSCGW

Case ID: 17898085841

This product has been identified as an unapproved drug containing progesterone, an active pharmaceutical ingredient by Amazon team and it was taken down. It is just herbal cream and *no ingredients* contain anything Amazon is claiming. We provided the ingredient list and made necessary adjustments to the listing copy. All of the changes we made are reflecting in the back end.

Amazon continues to send the template/default messages without even reviewing our submissions. It is very frustrating

Please, help.

The customer submitted a return request, it was granted, and they returned the incorrect item. They then opened an A to Z claim, and Amazon debited our account and counted the Order Defect Rate against us, stating we had received the return and should have issued a refund. That is incorrect: the customer never returned the original item that we sold them, so no refund should have been granted. This was appealed and denied. Seller support sent 2 cases for escalation and the A-to-Z team finally responded stating, “Although we understand your position, we stand by our decision”. Two case IDs 17843176801 & 17925576781. I will add a more detailed outline below. Looking for any MOD help here. @Seller_OOVUXZLmb2UEH @Seller_PIHyltK09pbl3 @Seller_guPeMXBrBxqyU @Seller_l3eCP9f1PtJXC @Seller_dnxnrsZIeTNo3

Subject: Dispute of A to Z Claim – Refund Should Not Be Issued & ODR not impacted

Order ID: 113-4888509-6548210

Covered by the buyer’s A to Z claim and ODR counted against us

Buyer returned an entirely different USED product with a brand that we have never carried.

Original product (NOT returned) switcheroo

Buyer has not returned this original unit and has been fully refunded

Issue:

Amazon provided the customer with a full refund, funded by us, and counted the Order Defect Rate against us.

The Order Defect Rate should not be counted against us

No refund should be granted for order 113-4888509-6548210

Video is rejected for illegal content
by Seller_wyqamOJmJ7mHg

Dear Amazon Support Team,

We recently submitted a product installation guide video for our brand, but it has been rejected multiple times with the reason "the video contains illegal content." Unfortunately, we have not received any specific details about what constitutes the "illegal content" in our video, despite reaching out to your support team several times.

To resolve this issue efficiently, could you kindly provide:

A clear explanation of what qualifies as "illegal content" in this context.

Specific timestamps or sections of our video that violate Amazon’s policies.

We want to ensure full compliance with your guidelines and would greatly appreciate your assistance in clarifying this matter. Please let us know if there’s a dedicated team or channel we should contact for further guidance.

Thank you for your time and support. We look forward to your response.

Video ID: 0e62367d3fcb4c639d6ce1daf66ffafd

Kind regards,

Pelsee

Not getting overnight options
by Seller_sTpKyEC5gbktd

Is anyone else not getting overnight options for tomorrow. I am in a SFP trial so I need to hit qty and OTD. However, Amazon is telling me to deliver by tomorrow. Yet I do not have an overnight option for fedex or UPS. Fedex 2 day am says it will be there tomorrow according to Veeqo, but not amazon shipping. That doesnt make sense as they should match. None of the options give me amazon protection. Its an expensive item.

Am I going to take an OTD hit even though the overnight option isnt provided?
