has your amazon account ever vanished?
 

I have had a few amazon accounts just dissapear lately.
when you go to put the password into an exsiting seller account
it does not work,the account seems to have been deleted by amazon.
Has this ever happened to you? I did not even get a (#300,000,000) suspension notice.Amazon appears to just delete your account with no warning.

Yeah they do that with the accounts that are the easiest to link.

They probably figure you have gotten enough notices with lifetime bans already and that didn't discourage you. So unless they threaten you with going to hell or something, there isn't much they can add to the e-mail.

This is a problem experienced by several users - I recently had this problem with one account as well. Bunch of folx are trying methods to recoup so follow this thread:

I'm having same problem. It's sucks!!

The thread link you gave only can be read by subscribe members......

Usually when a seller account is banned, you are usually able to still have a buyers account. I really dont know why they would completely just make an account dissapear. This has never happened to me personally. I have always had access to the account even when it was blocked, plus I always had my buying prevliges.

Amazon use to black account when you are registered your account, now they change the strategy looking and blocking once you reach your limit.

I really do not understand what you are talking about in your post.

typo: black= BLOCK? :spy:

Dunno.

Seems like he's saying that Amazon used to block you right when you registered, now they let you reach your limit before blocking you.

Not sure if that makes sense, my stint on Amazon was very short :noidea:

This is an impossible thread. This just doesn't happen if you have funds on the account.

You are VERY mistaken if you do not think that Amazon can and has deleted accounts that contained money in them.
I know that they will and have done this for a FACT.

Just doesn't happen, sorry. They CANNOT do that. Back up your statement and I'll bow down and kiss your toes.

Rgivens,
I understand you have an indepth knowledge of amazon.

However be careful of calling out users because you disagree with statements.

HWGA showed me info regarding accounts. Other users confirmed similar stories.

Now either they were party to a hoax or maybe there is some info missing.

I can qualify HWGA's statement that funds were in the account. I can confirm the same for other users.

One point on this forum is BS is not welcomed or needed. Users making unfounded claims have no place here and are found out. There's been no reason for HWGA to make such claims merely to attract attention. Neither was there reason for other users.

If you could explain your reasons, we can organize a toe kissing party:juggle:

It's just aggravating to know people actually manipulate others into believing Amazon can legally remove your hard-earned funds for no reason at all... That's highly illegal, regardless if you're using their marketplace or not.

That's not an answer is it?

You're the only user getting aggravated.

Prove to me that the users who told me about their accounts were manipulating facts.

Prove to me it is not YOU that is doing the manipulation.

I feel that would be fair for all concerned.:amen:

I'm willing to swear on a stack of bibles that I have had accounts vanish. The OP doesn't say anything about the accounts having funds in them or not, so not sure why the funds really matter.

Amazon can still pay out after 90 days and provide a accounting at the time. Not letting users access banned accounts has nothing to do with paying them.

Maybe the accounts got hacked, could be possible..

Hmm.. So what you're implying is the OP had accounts vanish, then after 90 days, it just magically re-appears again? If that's the case, I'm fine with that.

Not going good! Loads of my account gone!! Hard eared money in them...I have started email, just takes it's time I hope

Just hope there is a chance

Given HWGA's experience and longetivity and my own recent experience, the deletion/block happens - still trying to crack through it.

I will not go into specifics on the open forum.
But I lost over 10= accounts earlier this year.
There were over 10+ thousand dollars in those 10+ accounts.

The info is there and the accounts are GONE - right along with the money....

If you figure it out, please let me know.
My 10+ is still locked/lost in those 10+ Amazon accounts that vanished earlier this year.

Has anyone that had accounts vanish, not get paid after 90 days? Not being to log-in is a minor issue for me,

Not getting paid is a BIG issue and a game changer.

road-kill.... a bit of advice....

We're all for arguing, it's a forum after all. But you blatlently telling a senior member he's an idiot and whats illegal and no possible really makes a lot of people mad. Simple fact, I've been doing this long enough where I am not naive enough to ever say that paypal ebay amazon or anyone can't or won't do anything. These accounts and sites are not in your control, they CAN do anything.

Here's mine. Your comments are addressed to the wrong user. :nono:

Thread has gone along nicely so let's keep it going that way.

You are correct and wrong at the same time.

Amazon cannot simply take your money when you have fullfilled your orders, however per their user agreement they can suspend you for ANY reason and place a hold up to 90 days on any remaining funds to cover any chargebacks.

What they do is they deny you access to your account. You are unable to login to your Amazon Seller account. Every time you try to login it tells you a user with this email and password does not exist in our system.

If you use the password reset option, it will even allow you to reset your password, but when you go to login after resetting your password you still get the same "an account with this email and password does not exist in our system" message.

After 90 days from the date your account was initially blocked, if you added a bank account to the account prior to them blocking access to your account funds will be disbursed to the account on file.

If you were unable to add a bank account before they blocked access, you will have to contact them after 90 days, and they will restore access to your account for 24 hours for you to add a bank account to disburse your funds.

So yes, they do DELETE/BLOCK your account to where you have no access. However, they DO give you your money back after the 90 days.

My current problem is that one account has 5 orders for which I shipped but I cannot log-in to confirm...anyhow...

I always confirm shipments in the morning. Ship late in the day. Edit shipping info in the evening.

I hate getting the "my tracking numbers don't work e-mails"

Thanks. I'm done. :)

I agree with your statement since I've gone through the same thing with them. However, please keep in mind that they can "delay" to pay you in the length they like with whatever reason they decide to throw at you. I believe in at least 90% of the cases, if you fulfill the shipments and have no A-Z claims, you will get the money back after initial 90 days hold.

I beg to differ on this point.
I have 10+ accounts with Amazon that all total contain 10+K in payments.
These 10+ accounts were deleted by amazon after that were blocked after they were suspended.
I can not log into them what so ever.
They are stuck in the password reset endless loop.
I went so far as to talk to Amazon Customer Service about 1 of these accounts.

I was told that they were blocked and restricted and until the restriction was lifted by their Customer Safety dept I would not have access to this account.

This is the same on the 10+ accounts.

The 90 cash lock was up in March of 2011. It is now almost September of 2011.
6 months + 90 days = 9 months.
So why has Amazon in essence stolen 10+K from me?
I can not get them to release my money no matter how many times I email them or call them.

I have already written the 10+K off as a loss and a expensive lesson learned.

What they should do and what reality is are sometimes very different.

I'd like to believe you, but it's just not possible. Sorry, just doesn't legally happen, in my opinion.

Despite being asked to give your reasons for this not to be possible, nothing has been forthcoming.

HWGA can reopen thread if he sees fit.
