“Amazon do not care how you receive your goods and if you receive them at all but are very quick to take your money. The customer service team treat you as if you do not have any common sense. So patronising.”

“I renewed my Amazon Prime account (which I only realised I had a few months ago when The Grand Tour was being shown only on Amazon). I have over £300 worth of vouchers which I need to spend in the next few months. So I ordered the Amazon Fire TV media player, next day delivery with my Prime account. It didn’t arrive although the tracking showed it was with Amazon Logistics courier. I called their customer services who are in Asia and was told it would be delivered the next day. I stayed in and guess what, no delivery. The item was with the courier 6 miles away according to the tracking website.They sent me an email stating that they were unable to deliver. Nobody tried delivering the item, I was in all day. I called customer services again, and told them to cancel the order. I sent a message on their Facebook page and was sent a link so that they could investigate the issue. I replied not to bother as I have cancelled the order. I will spend my £300+ in vouchers but will not use Amazon for any other items. I may even cancel my Prime membership but will see if it is worth it for the Prime Video\TV”

“I ordered two Xmas presents that were due to be delivered today, I had them delivered to my work so there would be somebody there all day. Nothing arrived and when I got home I had an email saying I was getting a refund but absolutely no reason why!! I ordered a kindle and a cover so I can't even go to the shop and buy one, I am absolutely furious as now with four days to go I have to think of and buy something else. Just an explanation would have been good. I thought this was a reliable and good company but obviously not”

“I sold an item on Amazon.co.uk. The buyer filed an A-Z claim. I contacted Amazon for advise and was told to wait for the buyer to return the item then decide to offer a full or partial refund depending on items condition on return. There was no mention of 7 days to appeal the A-Z claim! Which was the reason for my call in the first place! Amazon refunded the buyer who has not returned the item. Amazon have refused to assist in any way. I will never use the service again and would advise others the same”

“Upon pre-ordering an item a month before its release I've been told the day before release that I will not be recieving said item on the day of release because I hadn't payed for delivery. Then apon complaint was not offered any sort of help. Amazon really do appear to be money grabbers with no concern of customer loyalty”

“This is the first and last time I order textbooks on student amazon. I paid for prime shipping and placed an order for almost $400 worth of books. Next day waited around for the order and nothing showed up after calling them and speaking to an extremely rude supervisor named Berna I found out they cancelled my order for suspected fraud because it was my first time ordering and the large amount of the order, but I was never notified. Now after reinstating my account and replacing the same order I paid for express shipping again and still have not received my package. Its now been a week, 7 phone calls, and two emails and still no package. There wasn't even an explanation as to why I wasn't contacted when my account was suspected fraudulent, the supervisor only offered me a $10 credit which wouldn't even cover shipping cost, and I've still yet to get any reply from my emails that I've sent. Its tempting cause their cheap but do yourselves a favor students and don't get your textbooks through amazon. The amount of time wasted and the frustration of dealing with there customer service staff isn't worth the trouble. Now I'm massively behind on my studies and still have NOT received my textbooks.”

“Received gift card. Numbers on back were not all legible. Amazon said unless i had receipts they would not honor their gift card. Leaves a bad taste that I have been a great customer for many years and they pull a cheap gift card scam on me. Very dissapointed.”

“I do not want to even discuss this experience and I am done with AMAZON as a Econmmerce site. I will never even be interested in buying through AMAZON and that is final. There are many site and including many Indian Site who can sell and service their customer better. In fact I place order with Ebay and got my stuff within 2 days flat. Who need AMAZON anymore. I thought AMAZON is amazing because in USA I had some very good experience. They have killed that also. Pls train those asshole looking after TWITTER replies and make them more educated.”

“My 4 month old Amazon Kindle Paperwhite goes to USB mode when charging, which means that I cannot use the device Plus, I have to reboot the Kindle to get it out of the USB mode. Did all of Amazon's tech support rep's suggestion but none of them resolved the problem. Plus the rep implied that I was responsible for this defective product. I had to insist that I receive a new Kindle; the rep didn't offer that as an option. I am supposed to go to the UPS store, purchase appropriate packaging to send my Kindle back to Amazon before they send me a replacement Kindle. I won't be getting a new Kindle but a "refurbished one," and they didn't guarantee that I would get the same generation Paperwhite.. My biggest complaint was that Amazon never offered to replace my Kindle and blamed me for their faulty product. I had to insist on it. Poor customer service. Amazon doesn't stand behind its Kindle.”

“It is clear #Amazon do not train any of their customer service people in any thing but trying to get you off the phone as soon as possible. I have had multiple experiences of lost or wrong items being sent only to be lied to about what action thier customer service team was going to do to put it right. Take my advice, go to a shop. It's easier.”

“My complaint is specifically about Amazon marketplace. I bought an iPhone 5 case from MUZE Store I thought it was a genuine case. It was a cheap imitation. I wanted to give it back but there seller didn't give me an address or any guidance it send it back. Amazon also didn't help. The seller contacted me after the 14 days cooling of period say he can't not accept it.”
