Welcome to Seller Forums

My account was made inactive. How do I get it to be active again? Amazon asks "Please provide the following information to gain complete access" and they just say to reactivate the account.

Dear Amazon Support Team,

I am facing difficulties in providing quality service to your customers because my account has been deactivated. I have submitted all the required documents and proofs as requested. Kindly review them and reactivate my account so I can continue serving your customers with the best offers and services.

Thank you for your support.

I recently received 8 orders in just 40 minutes, all shipping to South Elgin, IL, with different names and addresses but the same ZIP code. After some investigation, I found that some of the phone numbers linked to these orders have online complaints about people receiving unexpected packages from Amazon, Walmart, or even China. This doesn’t seem like a typical dropshipping activity—could it be a targeted attempt to harm my store through fake reviews or feedback? Has anyone experienced something similar? What are the possible motives behind this, and how should I address it? Your insights would be appreciated!

Thanks

Dear Amazon Team,

I really frustrated from Amazon support, they even don't help guide to solve the issue.

Falak Accessories is my old account, which I created on 30 November 2023 during my learning session and did not used it nor created a single listing on it, and NovaNest Variety Store is my main account created in 2024 on LLC details and it is verified, recently I have received an email from amazon that your main account is deactivated due to linkage with old account please reinstate you old account first first then you can reinstate your main account, after that I came to falak accessories which is my old account and opened many cases with support and also provided utility bills, bank statement and others aligned with amazon requirements but amazon is not reactivating my old account with saying (no enough information to reactivate your account) or (We completed our evaluation of your submission. We do not have enough information to remove the violation at this time.) kindly please check attached screen shots and provide me a proper solution.

Hi Everyone,

I'm reaching out to see if anyone has encountered a similar situation and to seek advice on how to handle it effectively.

As an international seller, we offer both Seller fulfilment (FBM) and Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) options for our customers across different countries.

Recently, we had a customer in the USA who placed a Seller Fulfilled order from our UK warehouse on October 27th to the USA. A week later, they noticed that we had sent out stock available through FBA and contacted an Amazon representative. The representative advised them to place a new order through the FBA stock (which was placed on November 5th) and to request a return for the original Seller Fulfilled order. They were assured that they would receive a full refund, including the shipping costs, once the return was processed. This guidance was given despite the fact that the initial order had already been dispatched and delivered by USPS to their address, shortly after.

To my knowledge, Amazon's Terms & Conditions specify that shipping costs for Seller Fulfilled orders are non-refundable unless the item is defective or the wrong product was received. Moreover, if the customer decides to return the item, they are typically responsible for covering the return shipping costs to our designated local return address.

I believe the advice given by the Amazon representative was incorrect and misleading. Instead of directing the customer to resolve the issue directly with us, they were promised a full refund, including shipping costs, which goes against Amazon's policy for Seller Fulfilled orders.

I would greatly appreciate any feedback or insights from other international sellers who have experienced similar situations. Am I correct in assuming that once a customer places a Seller Fulfilled order and agrees to the shipping charges, these costs are non-refundable unless there is a defect or error with the product?

Looking forward to your thoughts and input.

Thanks in advance

Hi Amazon,

Please what is going on with our Payments. Why are all the payments being held up in Deferred Transactions despite our Account is in good health? Over the past two payment cycles, we have not received payment for our sales on the platform and the last payments were peanuts which is way less compared to the tens of thousands in Sales we have made. I thought your deferred transaction policy is DT + 7days so why is it that since October till date no useful or substantial payment made despict the spike in sales and velocity so why holding on to the sales proceeds as this has significantly impacted our cash flow and operational capacity. Our account is in good health so we should be getting paid a substantial amount too so we can at least pay our Suppliers too even if we can't pay ourselves for all the hard work done to deliver on customers' orders. We need all these Funds release please as it's already affecting our relationship with our supplier. Amazon should pay up and stop holding on to the funds perpetually as this can be demoralizing for business.

I don't know if any of you have this issue, I have been creating ads on amazon but I haven't sell anything yet. I have tried in many ways, I have modified my ads many times, I have changed keywords and nothing happens. I just see that a lot of people click on it and that's it. Any ideas, guide or something to learn how to create better ads, please, i will apreciate it!

I'm so hopeless. Does anyone have any idea?

My product was assigned to a wrong category, I opened many cases, and it didn't work.

I also tried uploading a flat file and changing it like that, but it also didn't work.

Last time I even opened a very detailed case with many photos showing the usage of the product, many explanations, and various proofs, and it still didn't work.

I can't see any reason why my product is related to the wrong item type, when it is totally irrelevant. I am truly hopeless. Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot

Hello Amazon Sellers,

I’ve encountered a situation where a customer has left a series of 1-star reviews for my product and multiple competitors, alleging the presence of synthetic PDE5 inhibitors, which is untrue. These reviews appear to be part of a targeted pattern against similar products.

I’ve already opened a case with Amazon Seller Support (Case ID: 10535034902 & 10534458072), but would appreciate advice from others who have faced similar issues. Is there a way to escalate this to higher authorities to review the cases more thoroughly?

Thanks for your help!
