Welcome to Seller Forums

Whats the consensus on the best way to go about this?

For context, i'll be away for a long weekend (Friday to Monday), resuming on Tuesday morning.

Is it better to set the holiday mode for the time period, or extend our handling times to compensate?

Thanks

Hi All,

I use Royal Mail 24/48 bought via my own account (not via Amazon buy shipping)

I've just had one of the "Your valid tracking is lower than 95%" emails that I regularly get. I normally ignore them as Amazon used to exempt any the postie didn't scan on delivery.

I just thought I'd better check that policy is in place and I can't find any reference to it. In fact, it sounds as though it's changed as they now say:

"Other services that offer a delivery confirmation scan or full tracking may be bought via Royal Mail or via Buy Shipping. However, if a delivery confirmation scan is not provided, this order will only be exempted if the shipping label was bought through Buy Shipping."

Did I miss an announcement or is the policy still in place?

What should I do if my customer's delivery address is wrong and I don't get a message back when I send an email?

Case : 11163124502

Today, I received a neutral feedback from a customer which reads:

"APPARENTLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DELIVERY, CAN YOU ENLIGHTEN ME?"

The estimated delivery date for this order (ID: 204-8981519-6037168) is 4th June 2025 – and today is only 30th May 2025. The order is still well within the promised timeframe, and there are no issues from our side regarding dispatch or delivery.

Despite this, when I requested the removal of this feedback via Feedback Manager, the response I received was:

“We are unable to remove this feedback because it does not meet our guidelines for suppression.”

This is extremely frustrating. Either untrained staff or an unresponsive AI seems to be handling these requests, and it's draining us , mentally and emotionally. This kind of response feels like psychological bullying, and it must stop.

How can this feedback not qualify for removal when the item hasn't even reached its estimated delivery window?

Are buyers now allowed to leave negative or neutral feedback immediately after placing an order, and sellers are left powerless to dispute it?

What's the point of the Feedback Manager if it cannot apply basic logic to protect sellers who are actually doing everything right?

Amazon needs to urgently review how feedback suppression is handled , sellers deserve fair treatment, and the current system is not only broken but also demoralising.

Order 405-0350050-8137106

The buyer filed an A-Z claim for not receiving the product.

Amazon approved the seller's refund and affected the ODR.

This order shipped using Amazon Buy Shipping services. We ship on time and the parcel is delivered on time. Why it affects our performance?

Please help us.

I hope you can assist, as I’ve seen you help other sellers with similar unexplained charges.

I have been trying to resolve Case ID: 11167906722 relating to withheld funds and unexplained charges, but so far, I’ve received only vague responses from support. As of my last statement:

An Account Level Reserve of £7,417.07 was placed on 28/05/2025

An additional £5,833.25 was deducted as “Other”, without any breakdown or justification

My net transfer was only £23.51, despite over £7,200 in sales

I’ve reviewed community responses where you outlined “Order Adjustments” and “FBA-related deductions” in the range of £200–£400 per cycle, but in my case, the £5,833 charge seems excessively high and disproportionate, and no further itemisation has been provided even after repeated follow-ups.

I am also dealing with time-sensitive financial obligations, including staff wages and supplier invoices, and this unexplained hold is causing serious business and emotional stress.

Could you please:

Confirm what these charges relate to with a proper itemised explanation?

Advise whether any of these deductions are reversible or under internal review?

Escalate this matter urgently to the relevant financial or compliance team?

This appears to be affecting multiple sellers and risks breaching Amazon’s transparency obligations under the UK Payment Services Regulations 2017 and Consumer Rights Act.

Thank you for your help, and I truly hope you can step in and assist with this as you have with other sellers.

Best regards,

So I have just come across a refund given by Amazon to a customer for a bespoke order.

I was blissfully unaware of there being an issue with any order.

The order came in yesterday and had a note on the order with this incredibly rude message "Do not disappoint me please. I need this ASAP"

Anyway needless to say it was a next day order so I immediately processed the requirements and put this on a next day tracked.

It was received at 10.46am. By 12.46pm, I had a note from Amazon to tell me the order has been refunded.

No A-Z claim, no dialogue with the customer or even an explanation from Amazon why this order has been refunded.

I contacted Amazon and raised a Safe T claim. The safe T claim was instantly denied and I immediately put in an appeal and just waiting on the outcome.

I contacted Amazon seller support and they stated another department had refunded this without giving any explanation other than the customer claims to have received the wrong item.

In what World does an Amazon rep hand out a refund without an A-Z or querying with me first for a refund. The order value I think is irrelevant in this case but to me it is substantial and I am waiting for an explanation.
