Hello fellow sellers (and Amazon mods),

I'm writing here out of sheer frustration — and in the hope that someone with the right internal visibility might take notice of this long-running and unresolved issue affecting my FBA account.

On March 30, 2025, Amazon initiated a wide-reaching "authenticity" investigation on my account, flagging over 200 ASINs. Many of these ASINs were marked with "N/A" quantity, meaning I never even sold or stocked them. This was an automated sweep triggered while my account was under review for a single ASIN complaint.

Since then:

My account has been fully reinstated through mediation.

I provided full documentation for all products I had in stock.

The Inventory Appeals team released the physical stock that was held.

Yet — months later, every time I try to restock ANY ASIN from that March 30 list, it gets auto-flagged and held in FC Processing indefinitely.

I’ve contacted Seller Support countless times. I’ve opened multiple cases. I’ve sent three separate emails to inventory-appeals@amazon.co.uk — with no reply. Support keeps telling me to “appeal the ASIN,” but I can’t submit documentation for inventory I never sold in the first place.

This is not an authenticity violation. It’s a residual flag issue caused by an investigation that was never properly closed in Amazon’s backend.

Case ID: 11124005882

All I want is for someone in Policy Enforcement or Product Compliance to review the issue and confirm:

The March 30 investigation is closed

Any remaining backend flags on affected ASINs are removed

I can safely restock my catalogue without triggering indefinite FC holds

This has been going on far too long. It’s damaging my business, tying up my cash flow, and wasting hours of support time. If anyone from the Amazon team monitoring these forums can help escalate or advise on a better route — I’d be extremely grateful.

Best regards

Hello, This accounting yeat I have come close to the VAT threshold (including all Amazon "expenses" such as FBA fees).

These expenses come to almost £20K (roughly half of which are FBA fees {carriage, warehousing etc}).

Should I be including FBA fees when calculating my VAT taxable turnover?

Thanks

FEATURED OFFER SUPPRESSION
by Seller_BVlg4q2R9cJDZ

I'm getting nowhere with Seller Support (Live Chat & Phone), made a ticket asking for escalation, E-Mailed CEO's office and got a pretty rude reply, I'm at a total loss as to what to do. I have lost the buy box for ALL of my key products and best sellers, I am the brand owner, I am the only offer.

I am stunned at how little support there is from Amazon, I knew it was bad but I had no idea it was THIS BAD. Absolutely no transparency what-so-ever, nothing on performance notifications, account health is perfect, no violations

With the CEO's office giving me the cold shoulder, seller support sending me links to 'Seller University', spending in excess of 10 hours trying almost everything on my account blindly, I'm at a complete loss sitting here with next to no sales. So my last resort is this... a mega thread... I'm hoping with enough people complaining about the issue, Amazon MAY acknowledge this problem as a bug/glitch before I have to file for bankruptcy (no exaggeration) and when they do, I also expect no apology or compensation.

Incorrect Dimensions causing higher FBA fees
by Seller_xh0d5SePkpEtU

Hello Everyone,

I am hoping some one can help here / adivse.. is anyone from Amazon here please need your help.

Our prodcut dimensions was incorrect which causing us to pay higher FBA fees, we sent the proof of measurement and the main issue is the height only which causing us to pay higher FBA fees. our product height is 2.4cm and when we raised we got reply that there is no change and height still is 3.71cm looks like they just copying from the system. When we raised the case again they measured it correctly and chat representative told me that after measurement height is 2.50cm and you should be in lower tier of FBA (for standard envelope) but you need to wait 48hr before system to get update as I can see internal system showing 2.50cm,but few days passed and sytem no updated probably due to refund...

anyway we raised this system issue gain but was told they will do the re measurement again, please note that we didn't request for re measurement this time as we were hoping that system will get update correctly as was told in previous chat. but they told us that only option is to do the re measurment and they came up this time again with 3.71cm forcing us to pay higher FBA fees which we didn't agree and after few messages they did the remeasruement and on 06/06/2025 we got 2.40cm happy days but again system not updated this time :( we waited 48 hrs and then when we contacted through chat they said as few measurments were done recently so they will use median :) which will force us to pay higher FBA fees...they simply forcing us to keep paying higher FBA fees for no reason :(.

what should I do now? anyone please from amazon can step in and looks for us please this is clearly not accepted.

Case IDs: 11103443982 , 11146391312 (on 6th June they confirmed height is 2.40cm).

I am messaging here in the hope an Amazon moderator can look in to this for us as we are flatly refused a resolution via the A-Z appeal and Amazon seller support. The buyer in this case returned the wrong item for a refund, order ID 205-0306167-9114720.

We have documented proof in the Amazon message thread where the buyer states they returned an item different from the one purchased. Their actions directly violate Amazon's policies regarding honest returns and proper use of the A-to-Z Guarantee. This claim was wrongfully granted and the resulting account defect is unjustified, as we fulfilled the order correctly and acted in accordance with Amazon's policies throughout the process.

Who do we contact now for the following

Reassessment and reversal of the A-to-Z Guarantee decision for order 205-0306167-9114720.

Immediate removal of the associated defect from our account metrics.

Consideration of this buyer’s misuse of the A-to-Z process, as it undermines the trust and integrity of the Amazon marketplace.

We are committed to providing excellent customer service and complying with all Amazon policies. We hope Amazon will uphold fairness by correcting this matter.

In our new podcast series Small Business Bytes on This is Small Business, producer Andrea Marquez shares bite-sized insights from interviews with more than 100 US small business owners about pivotal moments, challenges, and lessons learned as they scaled their business.

In this series, Marquez explores how mindset is a powerful tool to guide long-term planning and overcome challenges:

  1. Know the problem you’re solving: Your why leads your decisions, your brand messaging, and keeps you going when things get tough. For example, Sean Brownlee founded Ravenox to create stable, meaningful jobs for veterans as they transition to civilian life. Teri Johnson created Harlem Candle Co to celebrate Black culture in the US through fragrance. Both found success by grounding their business in a clear purpose. Ask yourself: What pain point does my business address? And how does that connect to my deeper mission?
  2. Don’t wait for perfect: Trying to perfect your product before launching can stall your growth. When Val Fishbane of Spread the Love Foods launched early, real world customer data helped refine everything from the ingredients to the jar size. Consider starting small, gathering feedback, and iterating from there.
  3. Make your brand story personal: Storytelling builds emotional trust, but it needs to be rooted in something meaningful. Conchita Pleasant started Nefertiti’s Secrets after losing her hair during cancer treatment. She turned personal healing into a haircare brand focused on empowerment. Ray Phillips of Soap Sox created his product to help children in treatment facilities feel safe at bath time. These stories make customers feel seen and understood. Share the personal moment that sparked your business. Why did you decide to create this solution?
  4. Craft a pitch that hooks in seconds: A sharp elevator pitch should spark curiosity fast. Felicia Jackson (CPR Wrap) opens her pitch with a gripping moment of panic: watching her child choke and feeling powerless despite her CPR training. Matthew Tesvich (Skunk Skin) connects with humor and relatability: he jokes about his own stinky feet, then pitches odor-fighting socks. Present the problem, an emotional hook, and a simple solution, and try to do it in less than 60 seconds.
  5. Use social proof to build trust: User-generated content like reviews, social media tags, and customer photos and videos are powerful tools to grow your brand. Research shows that 70% of customers will consider user-generated content before purchasing a product. Create a branded hashtag, repost customer content (with permission), and add reviews or videos to your product pages or email newsletters.

Royal Mail surcharges (Tracked Oversize)
by Seller_dtDzb0clEI627

I'm finding it increasingly difficult to contact the Royal Mail regarding surcharges which are due to their machine error. On a weekly basis I use the Royal Mail Contact Finance Form which used and used to get a response within 24 hours. For the past 3 weeks I am not recieving any response at all from the Royal Mail. Is anyone else finding it difficult to challenge these surcharges?

Thanks
