“I have been an Amazon customer for years, impressed with range and value of products however when it comes to making a complaint or if you need help with an issue then different matter altogether as customer service is totally lacking, infact disgusting customer service. I Paid £300 for what turned out to be a faulty Nintendo switch in December. I Was told to return to repair centre.... problem is I had to find a company willing to carry it as it contains lithium batteries, this proved difficult. In addition coronavirus has meant that whilst at home I have no facility to print a label... apparently amazon don't have facility to print a label either, hmmm major global company don't have a printer. They then issued a refund and asked me to return item without discussing this with me 1st and told me to purchase another one, surprise, surprise none in stock. Over £200 worth of games bought for a console that doesn't work, cant be repaired and unable to purchase a new one. Customer service live chat went on for over 2hrs, at least 5 advisors in that time, none of which listened or offered a reasonable solution, they gave me contradictory advice and then they ended the chat and in doing so also deleted the thread so no incriminating evidence about the poor way it was dealt with! Difficult times I appreciate but for an outlay (games and console) of £500+ I expected more support. Disgusted, furthermore there is no procedure to actually complain about customer service or in my case lack of.”

“Just canceled my prime. No point in paying for a service that fails to deliver. Joke of a once decent company. eBay has become a far better and more reliable way to shop. Will avoid Amazon from now on.”

“Soccerstar.biz This product should not be advertised as being for all ages, as it is just for young children. Very disappointed and have been able to let others know that it is poor value for the money and not to purchase the comic themselves. Will continue to let consumers know that this is for young children only and expensive for the quality.”

“I no longer have access to the email registered with my prime account, it tells me to seek help through the app, the app wants me to sign in and send an authentication code to said email address lol. Your customer service phone line is down during the pandemic. I have no means of resolving this issue unless somebody from Amazon can contact me.”

“HGV drivers can not read. Every evening several Amazon prime HGV enter Winwick Lane in Lowton A579 WA3 1LS toward the M6 motorway. How drivers constantly ignore the 4 separate 7.5 tonne weight limit signs prior to entering the lane is totally beyond me. What's more the company take no action. No matter how many times I contact them.”

“I bought a watch which was already loosing time when I received it within two days. Amazon seem to have a return service which prevents you returning goods so that in the end you give up and you loose your money I have just given up !!!”

“This is ridiculous service! I think amazon in UK lost something definitely! I ordered the gaming mouse with a defect it didn't work properly, they didn't want to send me working one they said I will receive a refund in 14 days...After that they informed me that I need to wait another 5-7 days. I am a gamer and streamer I need a working mouse. It's just SAD what they are doing, they service is worth nothing now. I was speaking with people on their chat. Rude and they didn't want to give me a address to leave an official complaint. I am paying 3 years for amazon prime, ordering everything on amazon, now I will NEVER order something from UK amazon!”

“I have used Amazon UK a lot and have never had an issue that hasnt been sorted by the CS team. this changed yesterday when i had to contact Amazon customer services. they had me running around in circles, didnt seem to understand my problem and i was passed from agent to agent none of whom were helpful. I think that these people are employed to anger and frustrate customers so that they drop their concerns. the customer service agents contradict themselves and at the very best are uninformed at worst liars. I have cancelled all of my memberships and am looking to make a complaint however as complaints are investigated by the customer services team that the complaint is about i cant see it getting very far.”

“I don’t know why, may be it’s bad luck. But I’ve ordered a laptop. Paying more than it costs from manufacturers, ordering from amazon due to logistic reasons. Assure it would be the last time I order from amazon. I have been charged. Yet more than a week and still not even estimated delivery time. I have contacted numerous times with support. They will do anything to just leave the chat happy/unhappy supported/unsupported. I wonder how this company got to be a multi billion dollar company. When cannot handle a simple question like what is the estimated time arrival of an product after almost 2 weeks of ordering. And if you don’t have an answer. Say we currently cannot provide. Don’t cover with dummy stories. Worst buying experience ever.”

“DO NOT subscribe with them!! I have had sooo many problems with amazon, both relating to the same thing. I rang up ages ago to cancel An account as somehow two had been made one with my phone number, one with my email address. So had a few problems but finally managed to get through to someone that merged my accounts together and cancelled the one with my mobile number - which was fine. I’ve now been charged TWO payments for my kindle unlimited subscription, when I went into the chat to find out why they said that the second was authorisation (it wasn’t I could see it deducted from my account) so then I said I will take screenshots and send it over, the first email sent back an automated response saying that the email the woman gave me was a no reply email address. The second one she gave also didn’t work either. They then proceeded to tell me that it was An authorisation Reference and it hadn’t been taken from my account which it had. By this time I had being chatting to them for OVER AN HOUR! with nothing resolved at all. I then spoke to a supervisor that said I have two accounts with them and I needed to give the other email address to cancel the account - I’d never used another email address except my own! So after about half an hour of me repeating the same thing that I can’t access the account as I don’t know the email address and him refusing to give it to me, he wouldn’t cancel the direct debit so now I am stuck with two direct debits each month for the same thing one of them being from an account I’ve never even used and should’ve been cancelled (if it’s the same account as the time before this happened) SO TWO HOURS LATER, nothing has been resolved at all, just that I’m going to have to ring up my bank and cancel the direct debit and probably not get refunded for the payment that I never signed up for.. The customer service is absolutely ridiculous!!! If I could give 0 stars I would”
