“Started out as complaining about having to now pay a 5.00 a month subscription plan to use the blink cameras I purchased 18 months ago outright. We purchased them for the sole reason there was no monthly fee. Well, after numerous attempts someone someone listen to me through chat ( 5 different reps) they finally called me. 3 or 4 more reps and 2 supervisors I was told there's nothing they can do. We had purchased 6 cameras, an additional hub, 2 memory sticks an 2 holders. Almost $1000 worth of Blink products ( Amazon Blink products). They offered 10% discount to buy more Blink products.? What? Again, not listening to my issue. Then they offered 1 month free of the extortion being pushed upon me ($5.00). Really?! She then pretended that she couldn't hear me in which i clearly stated " oh so this is the game you're going to play so you have an excuse to hang up. The call ended on a sour note as I informed the supervisor rep ( a woman who said her name is Sess), that I am filing a complaint with the BBB. I hung up then went to my past orders to find dates, prices etc. While in my account I was suddenly prompted to enter my credentials to log in?.I tried to log back in and lo and behold my account was deleted. Within 5 minutes of me getting off the call from the rep. Tried everything before having to call back yet again. Going on 2 hrs now. Got a rep from the states and after giving her an order number slated for delivery the following day I was informed the order was attached to a Richard grey whom I've never heard of in my life and my account was deleted including all past orders ( which info I need to file a complaint), all correspondence including call logs and chats, my email, cc info, everything. She put me through to another rep for canada and that rep couldn't do anything as I didn't have an account anymore, that I must have deleted it. I escalated the call and got a wonderful rep in Columbia who tried his best to find out what happened. I was told it takes 15 days for a customer to delete their account proving I didn't do it as I am having a delivery the following day. Had 5 purchases within the last week alone. Again, nothing he could do as I have no more account. I tried creating a "new" account the following day but cannot as the email and phone number already belong to an account.hmm.an account that doesn't exist anymore. Am still dealing with this as there is absolutely no recourse for me to take. Next is BBB anyway, as well as contacting legal counsel if it gets to that. All because nobody would listen to a plain old customer with a concern. Just kept passing the buck and then arbitrarily canceling my account including 2 alexas, Amazon prime, prime tv, 6 cameras and all past purchases. Beware putting all your eggs in 1 basket, especially 1 with so many holes. I am not creating a new account and ditching everything amazon and passing this info to everyone I can share with.”

“Amazon was the best place to order online in my opinion...WAS the best at one time, now...they are probably the worst! I used to love their customer service, they were the best. Now, WOW! It's like night and day. I don't know what the hell happened, but it is so horrible how terrible the customer service has gotten. The third parties on almost everything you order now are the worst! Always late, orders are mysteriously getting lost, no tracking numbers after a couple of days. When you phone to find out where the tracking is, they don't know the answer. It's a bloody joke now! How the hell did Amazon go from being the best, to being the worst?! I will NEVER order on Amazon again!!!”

“Amazon is not worth shopping with any longer. A lot of the reviews are "bought" by the seller offering something for a positive review. Quality has gone down but prices have gone up. The customer service has taken a turn for the worse. Tried getting my refund back from a seller but they only processed part of the refund. Amazon wouldn't do anything to assist in getting the balance back and just kept saying it was returned when it wasn't. Drivers treat the packages like garbage and park where ever they want. A driver used my driveway the other day to turn around and came very close to hitting my vehicle. They race up and down the street in a 30 km zone so don't care about safety. I highly recommend folks move away from Amazon to see what's out there. I found a lot of sites that will price compare for you and send you to businesses other than Amazon for better prices. Free shipping from pretty much any online business so take a look at alternatives because you will be happy you did.”

“Always deliver to the wrong address!!!!! Look at the numbers on the house. 9/10 deliveries go to the house next door. Get some drivers that can read, or care for that matter!!!!”

“I placed an order, your App gave me an error message so I placed a duplicate order. I returned the item the minute it arrived and since then Amazon has received it. I am told I am to wait a month to get my credit card (Amazon credit card) refunded. In the mean time I have to make interest payments on the credit card. I guess good business for you guys but shifty move with your customers. I wonder how much you guys make out of people with this kind of shaddy behavior”

“This month I received an email towards this year’s annual billing. Amazon in Jan/2021 and Jan/2022 charged me $89.27 each year for my amazon Prime Member Charge. This year Jan/2023 Amazon is now charging a whopping 25% increase = $111.87. Wait one minute here. Why are I and the rest of your customer base which is tremendously large, paying out this outrageous increase in the first place? We your customer base really don't give a damn about your reasons of free delivery to prime members nor any other reason you might try to sway us with as that is the price YOU/AMAZON should be paying out as the cost to have a business and to deliver the products ordered by your customer base. Yet you title it, "FREE DELIVERY"?!!! NOT! Then there is the fact that Amazon draws profit from the thousands of merchants that sell their products through your site and pay you in order to do so. In other words Amazon is 'DOUBLE-DIPPING' for profiting at both ends. Why should I or any customer pay Amazon just to shop and buy product? I don't have to pay any others like Walmart, Zellers, Tiger or any other store for that matter just to shop for their products. I might as well save the $111.87 and the outrageous increases to come and stop shopping Amazon.ca. As far as Prime Video goes for viewing a movie there is plenty of choices these days with plenty of great content that can match Amazon's Prime Video. You... Amazon... is NOT the only game in town. Amazon's DOUBLE-DIPPING is reason enough to reconsider as a viable source to shop as the DOUBLE-DIPPING is unreasonable, disrespectful, deceitful, rude and unethical if not possibly criminal. I plan to post this article in as many social media sites as possible. Who knows perhaps I can get it posted on City News sites even. How well does Amazon expect people to receive this info? How long, with all the competitive outlets out there do you think people will continue to continue using Amazon when they, your customer base, are being unjustly used in your DOUBLE-DIPPING game for profit?”

“Amazon endorses scamming merchants that provide innacurate and false advertising. They don't do anything about it and refuse to refund or cancel orders that were 6 hours away from shipping. I noticed something that was wrong about the item from other reviewers and I cancelled within 1 minute. They told me they couldn't cancel because it was "shipping soon" and it didn't ship for another 8 hours - They knew they had bad reviews and Amazon deliberately hid them. I had to dig for these reviews that were purposely "covered up" by Amazon. AMAZON IS A SCAM WEBSITE AND THEY KNOW THIS. THIS REVIEW WAS NOT ALLOWED TO BE POSTED ON THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE.”

“I ordered something from Amazon about $200.00 worth - they said out for delivery - when I checked - btw I was home all day waiting for delivery - it said undeliverable - I called customer service as this isn't the first time the driver was being lazy - I live in an apartment building - there is a big sign on the door that gives deliver people instructions on how to use the intercom - where the external staircase is and which apartments are on which level - its a small two floor 28 unit apt building - the drivers see that and do not bother to read the sign - I phoned customer service and they responded the driver tried - I asked if they also called the manager, the instructions are also on the door - she came back and said yes the manager didn't answer either - I said nope that driver is a liar because I am both the person receiving the package and the manager - they did not even attempt it - I was told by customer service that they would try to delivery again before 10pm that evening and at 9:30 pm it showed again delivery attempted but could not reach person - I immediately contacted customer service and she said he is back at the depot - I said if he tried at 9:30 pm there is absolutely no physical way he could make it from my place to the depot in under 30 minutes unless he is a bird since it's an hour drive - I asked her to confirm that and yup she isn't sure what happened - it took 3 days of this for me to get my package - I leave special detailed instructions and still get similar run arounds from lazy drivers who don't want to read or follow clear instructions - customer service says they can't make them read the instructions - ok well I also wrote them down when I ordered the items in question on the shipping order - why have a place to write down special instructions if the driver isn't going to read them - I am really rethinking my Prime Membership - I pay yearly and this June I may not - now I am out shopping locally and not wondering if the item is going to be damaged or take 2 or 3 weeks.”

“Yet, another Prime package that failed to arrive after taking 11 days to ship it (sold and shipped by Amazon). They take no accountability and make no effort to rectify. This is now the 5th package in the past 30 days that failed to arrive and we didn't even learn about it until we checked our status and realized that the item was "undeliverable" an hour before the deadline. We will be cancelling our membership, after 7 years of being prime customers.”

“Don’t even deserve one star, Amazon’s prime membership that advertises “same day delivery” or next day shipping is a total scam. Why pay for a membership when they can’t deliver on the delivery date? If you want same day delivery, get in your vehicle and purchase your item at a local store… Amazon is useless When they have delivered a time which is late, it isn’t even to the front door. Instead it is left at the entrance to the building (see photo)”

“Absolutely horrible customer service. Delivery times are now slower than all other major retailers (who don't charge an inflated membership). Trying to resolve issues has become excruciating, as they have apparently outsourced their customer service department and you will be forced to speak with 2-3 agents who do not comprehend what you're saying. Amazon, af one time was a very cost effective and reliable retailer. Those days are gone. We have cancelled our prime membership after 7 years of holding a membership.”

“Amazon customer service is the worst I have ever encountered. Great if you want help ordering something, non existent if you have a problem or complaint. I have literally spent hours on the phone being transferred from one rep to another, sent numerous emails which were responded to by automatically generated replies saying they had received my email, and absolutely no follow up or human generated response. I will not be shopping at Amazon in the future.”

“I ordered MSI Crosshair 15 B12UGSZ-480CA 15.6" and have just received the laptop. When I bought this laptop there were two places to buy, (Amazon with higher price or Best Buy). I chose to buy it through Amazon (Because this item is sold and shipped by Amazon), and I believed that Amazon was a good company but I was wrong!!. When I received this laptop, and I turned it on, and I began to set-up & within seconds the screen started flickering, screen & Laptop glitched & remained stuck despite restarting the laptop & charging it. I spoke directly with Amazon's customer service to replace the item and I stayed on the line for more than 90minutes and their only option was to make a refund or to keep the defective laptop with me and give me 170.90CAD as a discount. I bought this laptop, a new laptop during cyber Monday that cost me 1940 CAD and I waited 2 weeks to receive it, but unfortunately it is defected (How does Amazon sell a defective product)?? and when I asked for a replacement for the same model I've already bought but a good one not a defected one (which is my right) they have just say sorry we can only refund you!! The price has gone up and I have to wait until next year for the Cyber Monday sale. I do not recommend buying any expensive deals through Amazon because they have the worst customer service ever!!”

“amazon canada used to be good but it has gotten so bad lately. 1. the search function doesnt work and the things that come up just seem to be sponsered products and amazons products so if you are looking for something specific it may be in the 1000s of things that come up but you wont find it 2.customer service is terrible 3. products have gotten cheaper and you cant really trust even the prime products They have clearly made the greed based decision to go for as many products as possible with no concern about quality 4.the delivery times have changes. so 2 day used to mean 2 day . now apparently it means that after they find and pack it then it will be a furthe 2 days so yeah thats p retty bad. So their two day could mean a week or even longer.”

“I have order 2 beds on 2 different occasions and have received neither. The excuse was "we have no control over 3rd party sellers". If you have no control then why are you offering their products? And why do I have to wait almost 2 months to be told the item will not be delivered. I can make an exception for one time but when it happens twice then it shows how irresponsible and unreliable Amazon is. Will think twice before ordering from Amazon again.”
