I received a negative feedback on a football cake topper, with the customer claiming I sent the wrong colour. However, the customer selected red when placing the order, and I’ve confirmed that we did indeed send a red topper as requested.

The topper includes a team name, and the customer had entered "Derby County." They are now saying the topper should have been black, as that is the team’s official colour. However, there was no mention of this in the order notes—only the team name and a red colour selection.

I feel this isn’t my fault, as I strictly followed the customer’s instructions. Do you have any suggestions on how best to handle this or what action I should take regarding the feedback?

I have been selling for a year on Amazon high end laptops been doing fine all 100% perfect account everything reading 0 and 100% feedback. Got an order a few days ago thought I had taken it off my stock but was still on, sure it was an Amazon issue, as sure I took it off but anyway. I offered the customer a free upgrade customer, never responded. I did contact the mobile on the order and a guy answered and said he did not place an order on Amazon and this mobile should not been on this order . So I proceeded to cancel the order as possibly it being fraud. Now my precancellation rate is rising everyday as no orders for a week my listings have no buy box and because no orders the rate is now 33% as do not sell volume . THIS FOR ONE ORDER IN A PREFECT ACCOUNT!! The preceding month took £20,000 in sales. SURELY THIS CANNOT BE RIGHT FOR ONE CANCELLED ORDER.

Can Amazon look at this, or do I assume no sales for 7 days, then the metric will go back to zero and this is just Amazon treating us like we are all dodgy and do not care about our businesses I am a naughty boy here is some punishment for you !! One stock error has this implication on a good account is quite ridiculous!!!

Never used to be much of an issue this, very occasionally I would get a message from a customer saying the item was late and they need a refund.

Over the last couple of weeks I am getting many messages asking me for a Refund as the item hasn't arrived on time and it is too late to be used. Almost always these messages come on the Expected Delivery date or the day afterwards. I am getting it all hours of the day and it is driving me mad.

I know Royal Mail can be slow but is there any kind of change in Amazon messaging which anyone is aware of which is driving this?

This is particularly impacting Letter Post sent by Royal Mail where there is no tracking.

This is different to the Item is Lost messages I get which I am used to (and still get!).

Order 205-1729008-9231501

Dear Amazon Support Team, @Seller_hnDMgUKxMh1V4 @Seller_Huz6FT08OxHAR

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to formally request to escalate a delivery dispute related Order 205-1729008-9231501.The order in question was shipped via ParcelForce on June 10th, 2025, and the tracking information confirms that it was delivered on June 11th, 2025, at 13:17 to Mr. E. Heath The proof of delivery indicates that a male received the package. However, the customer has claimed that the item was not received. In response, I provided the customer with the proof of delivery and reached out to ParcelForce for further investigation.This morning, ParcelForce confirmed via email which has been shared with Mr. Elliott that their driver returned to the delivery location and took a photograph of the correct door, which corresponds with the proof of delivery. They have verified through GPS tracking and the revisit that the package was indeed delivered correctly.Furthermore, I learned from ParcelForce that they attempted to contact the buyer, who was uncooperative and acted suspiciously, even ignoring requests for his full name. Given these concerning circumstances, I strongly suspect that the buyer may be attempting to deceive us.I kindly request that Amazon conduct a thorough investigation into this matter, particularly regarding the buyer's account activity. I have attached the photo taken by the driver today, which confirms delivery to the correct address.I am struggling to understand how a refund could be issued to the customer when there is substantial evidence supporting the delivery. I appreciate your attention to this matter and trust that a fair decision will be made.Thank you for your assistance.Best regards
