What you need to know about Amazon
Amazon responds quickly and efficiently to customer service problems. Our advocates remember a time when you could email former CEO Jeff Bezos and get a response. But some issues have come up lately, including problems with product returns, incomplete refunds (repeatedly) or refunds sent to the wrong card. We are monitoring the situation closely.
We resolved a case in which Amazon tried to keep a customer’s money when UPS lost the return. Also, the company lost this customer’s return and left him with the bill. Recently, the company did not refund a purchase despite a warranty, and charged a restocking fee. The company promised a price match three times, but now it’s refusing.
