Customers not receving message on new Message Centre version
@Maja_Amazon@Julia_Amazon@Winston_Amazon@Ash_AMZ
The previous version of Message Centre would tell us if a customer has chosen to Block messages from sellers, so, we used the work around.
Approx 25% of all our messages we send to customers would be 'blocked by customer'.
However, with this new version it no longer tells us if the customer has chosen to block messages.
So my question to the moderators is:
Without having to send every message via the work around method, has Amazon slipped up here and forgotten to include in the new design the message to advise sellers the message is blocked?
Anyone else thought the same?
Such a frustrating message system.
There is little point me sending every message via the Message centre AND via the work around otherwise this is just going to annoy customer that we are sending duplicate messages!
Thanks

The message centre has always been a bit of a pain, and I really believe that a customer should not be able to opt out of receiving messages. - though I do understand why, when we are frequently spammed with excessive emails. The work around by putting [Important] in the subject line is a real pain too.

To be honest I rarely got a message in the old version that the customer's email address has been blocked. It was very exceptional to get one.
I haven't noticed the message in the new system. Most of my messages to customers seem to be ignored anyway, I would say only about 1 in 10 customers actually respond to messages I sent.
