How am I supposed to appeal this A-Z decision?|
A customer has claimed an FBM item as not received despite the usual proof (Royal Mail Signed For full tracking details and confirmation on Royal Mail website with delivery confirmed).
Amazon's response is to refund the Customer in full from my funds, but because I have proof the customer received the goods I don't get a strike.
As they say, "Because you provided sufficient information that proves the order was actually received by the customer, we will not count the claim against your Order Defect Rate"
In other words, "we can see that you delivered the item and on time, but the customer wants to keep their purchase and their money so we're just going to take from you and give it back to them."
Do I appeal? They already acknowledge they have evidence the item was delivered, so am I just wasting my time?

It's always worth appealing but you probably won't get it overturned. This would be a very easy win via small claims court, Amazon may even refund your money rather than go that route once a LBA is issued.

Hi there,
I would contact the MD's office and if you don't get any luck pop a letter to the following -
UK Small Business Commissioner, Office of the Small Business Commissioner, 1 Victoria Street, London, SW1H 0ET
Clearly this is as usual way out of any normal person moral range and they might be interested in hearing about it as it likely to be deemed unfair to your business and the effort we all put in to make amazon a safe place to shop. It's a shame the platform is not a very safe place to do business when you read stories like this one.
Amazon is clearly using its dominance incorrectly here.
