Has anyone noticed that Amazon are suddenly paying less for lost items?

I have just been reimbursed £40 for 3 units that would have sold at £180 in total.

Last week I got reimbursed £117 for 6 units that would have sold at £240.

I understand that the reimbursements are meant to reflect the net amount we would have received but these 2 seem very low.

Is there an easy way to just completely turn off returnless refunds on FBA ? Thanks Amy

Hi,

I've noticed in the last few days that DPD have been added as an Amazon partnered carrier for Small Parcel delivery into FBA warehouses.

I have booked 10 boxes on as a test. However I cannot seem to be able to book a DPD collection, as the DPD tracking numbers aren't recognised.

Anyone managed to book a collection?

Thanks in advanced

Hi I have been ignoring the alert to update my selling information and today saw my account put on hold until i uploaded the info required. I did this earlier today and submitted but nothing has changed. Tried submitting multiple times but still nothing. Spoke with seller help and they said i haven't yet pressed submit. Tried using different docs and still no change.

Does this normally take a while to be looked at or should it be pretty instant? After i click submit the next page says the information is being reviewed and the page will refresh in 30 seconds. After a minute or so it refreshes and prompts me to "review and update my selling on amazon account information". Back on the dashboard there is nothing to say my uploaded information is under review and there is no sign of any change after pressing submit except I get a performance notification which states "We are conducting a review of your Amazon Payments Account. We need additional information or documents to continue with your account verification. In accordance with regulations, you must complete an account verification process. Please go to the Identity Information page to provide the required information or documents:"

Am i doing something wrong? My account has been on hold all day and I can't see how to get it back active again. I have checked each document fits the criterea they have asked for and that all information provided matches.

Many thanks for any help that can be offered!

I have had zero violations on my account. I built this business by myself over 4-5 years and it has become my main source of income - so this is quite depressing.

Amazon requested me to send them documents proving I'm a UK established business that pays VAT. They never formally rejected my documents - they just kept spamming the same performance notification asking me for the same information over and over again.

About 3 weeks in, and after having about 3 phone calls with account health, it turned out that the address they wanted me to prove was my OPERATING address instead of REGISTERED address. I gathered as much evidence as I could since then (utility bills, commercial invoices etc). and sent it to them. Since then it has been a wild goose chase. I've had to send this information multiple times too, and to multiple email addresses (all of this under the advice of account health).

It has been 6 weeks since I sent the last bit of information they asked for and I have had no response. I have lost over £150K worth of sales and paid over £15K in storage fees in these 3 months. Every time I call Account Health they tell me all I can do is wait. The more I wait, the more I lose in storage fees. They refuse to give me any rough estimate whatsoever on when this will be complete - I could still be waiting next year for all I know.

This has just an extremely stressful and depressing past few months. I did nothing to deserve this - this is just Amazon refusing to look at the documentation and reinstate my account at this point. This issue has been escalated twice in the last week. 5-6 days ago I received an e-mail from the "specialised team" it has been escalated to telling me I'll hear a response within 72 hours. They have not responded.

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Do I just accept that the accounts gone? I can make a new company, new seller account, and pay another £15K or so to get stuff removed from the Amazon warehouse but it's always in the back of my head that by the time this is all done my actual account will be reinstated by then. It's a frustrating dilemma. Really seems like Amazon is just torturing me at this point. Has anyone been through anything similar? Any advice?
