We received a message from Amazon today, stating that our account was placed under temporary review, funds are frozen. It says "This review period will provide us time to confirm delivery of your recent seller-fulfilled orders. The review period should not exceed 30 days, but we will inform you if additional time is required for your temporary review". A link to a general information of why this is happening does not help at all - none of the situations listed there can be applied to us.
What is going on? We've been a seller for 15+ years, 8-figure/year revenue, SFP program, using Buy Shipping for just about all orders, all orders have tracking numbers, and just about all delivered within a day or two. Amazon sees that we deliver everything.
We utilize Amazon Lending and Parafin (pitched to us by Amazon), have a ton of bills to pay for inventory, etc. That's not the way to treat your partners, Amazon.
@KJ_Amazon, can you assist with this?
Thanks!

That seems to be a lot of sales for having 7 reviews in 12 months? Or 5 in 90 days which leaves 2 in 9 months? Just seems a bit odd.
I feel sorry for you but this is the biggest threat sellers face here. they never know their 8 figure business will be shut down within a minute without any explanation. if you don't get any reasonable response in few days I would recommend to attend amazon accelerate next week and meet someone in person. last year I had issue with my prime badge and I was able to resolve my issue by attending amazon accelerate and meeting a real human at seller cafe. its my experience others might have bad experience.
My guess is that someone reported saying that they didn't receive the product you sent out and that Amazon wants to check and see that all of your products that you sent out are being delivered. Thats my best guess though
Hey, Amazon never treat us as partners.... Everyone is 1 email away from goodbye. They don't care.

About your account being under temporary review, as a way to protect customers, Amazon monitors orders shipped by the seller to ensure that customers are receiving the purchased items in a timely manner.
Amazon may place seller's account under review to monitor their sales activities and validate the delivery of recent, seller-fulfilled orders. During this period, which cannot exceed 30 days, we may limit the seller's selling privileges as a preventive measure against potential impact on Amazon customers.
These restrictions can include:
During this review period, which cannot exceed 30 days, these measures are taken to protect customers. Although the funds remain in the seller's account, their payout ability will be temporarily limited.
The account may be placed under review for several reasons, such as:
To accelerate the review process, the seller can provide:
Additionally, I'd like to request that you please verify their tracking numbers and provide proof of stock (invoices) as part of the review process.
If you are facing logistical challenges that are causing delays in order fulfillment, providing the reasons and supporting evidence can also be considered during the review.

Lifetime you have 1,989 reviews, but last 12 months you have 7.
1989/15 years = about 132.6/year.
Did you stop selling for a while and just recently get back on in a big way?
Generally it is not how big or small you are but how fast you have ramped up in sales that starts a review and hold of funds.
Amazon collects interest on held funds. They probably have 10's of millions of funds sitting on hold "pending review" garnering them 1000's and 1000's of dollars in interest.
Rule of Business: Make money using other people's money...
Billions is not an exaggeration when you include the normal payments that are waiting for their two week disbursement.
This just happened to me asking for me to submit tracking that products have landed. I sent out products well in advance of ETA and provided shipping information and before the product even had time to travel across the USA I was frozen asking for delivery confimation. 2 of 3 have landed because they were closer and now I'm stuck waiting for the 3rd to literally travel from CA to FL.

Billions is not an exaggeration when you include the normal payments that are waiting for their two week disbursement.

This just happened to me asking for me to submit tracking that products have landed. I sent out products well in advance of ETA and provided shipping information and before the product even had time to travel across the USA I was frozen asking for delivery confimation. 2 of 3 have landed because they were closer and now I'm stuck waiting for the 3rd to literally travel from CA to FL.
