no idea what you are talking about,why not ask the bank
You are in Canada,but you sell on AMZN USA site?
and use a Canadian bank Visa debit card?
Your sales proceeds is in US $?
And in the past,you have no problem with AMZN depositing your US $ in your debit card?Did it convert it into Canadian dollars for you??

I remember a few posts stating debit cards don't always work.
Our card is a Visa/Debit card. Wondering if AZ has changed this and only want credit cards only??? |
what error message did you get?

She is in Canada,but she has a debit card from a US bank(M & T bank),so there should be no problem depositing her US $ SALES PRoceeds into that bank via bank debit card.
And she said it has worked for 9 years.
Unless the billing address is the problem NOW.
What kind of billing address did she give a US bank since she is in Canada?

If a CC doesn't work, they'll actually tell you to update it and you can't even disburse in the first place. |
Not all CC will accept incoming deposits

She is in CANADA,are you suggesting she uses a Canadian bank for her AMZN seller account,she sells on AMZN USA??
Now I wonder ,with her American bank account M & T Bank,how does she open a US bank account being a Canadian citizen?
what address did she use,and she does not have SSN?
OR she is a US citizen living in Canada?
confusing as xxxx.
First you said you were using M & T bank debit card,now you keep saying CC is accepted,does CC means credit card?
You are in Canada,and your AMZN account is USA and you sell to USA buyers,and you link a US bank account debit card .
It works fine for 9 years and then one Canadian buyer buys from you on AMZN USA and then you have problem ? with your US $ disbursement?/
Does AMZN know you are in Canada,and you are Canadian citizen or US citizen?
When you open an account with M & T bank which is a US bank based in Buffalo,NY 9 years ago,did the bank know you are a Canadian or US citizen?
What address did you give to the bank and what address did you give AMZN USA ??
fROM Where do you ship your goods sold on AMZN?
AMZN may have tightened rules due to money laundering !
Etys now asks sellers to provide name as registered with Etsy to be the same name as the bank account linked to receive disbursement,the name of the shop can be anything,but both name of bank account and Etsy account must be the same,for reason of deterring money laundering activities
The issue started in January with the Canadian sales from this US account. Have had 4 failed disbursements in a row. During that time, the US sales were deposited into the same acct, until, this last disbursement. It bounced.
------------------
Did the Canadian sales went thru ok?meaning it ends up in your M & T bank account?
then the 4 failed disbursements which failed,were they sales made to US buyers?
I am not saying you are doing anything illegit,since the passing of Patriot Act,there are some new rules /

Note what it said about Canadian seller using AMZN FBA,having a US bank account ,and the need to file US income tax form 1040 NR and possibly state sales tax (if AMZN is not doing it for you like Ebay).
I would think,just my own speculation,rules have tightened with ecommerce venues ,what works in the past does not work anymore ,the problem in on your end like someone pointed out,it could be your bank account and you being a Canadian seller using FBA,you need to find out from AMZN what needs to be done
What address did you give to the bank and what address did you give AMZN USA ??
UPS Store Lewiston NY
fROM Where do you ship your goods sold on AMZN?
Bought in Canada, shipped to FBA in the US, all legal. It is the bank when transferring by cheque to CND bank acct that would control laundering
-----------------------------------------------
AMZN knows this is not your real address,it wants your real address
she is using M & T Bank(which is a USA bank) debit card,it has worked for her for many years.
She is not using a credit card.
But it sounds like AMZN is not accepting that debit card!
Do they verify debit card like a credit card?trying to confirm her billing address?
Her billing address is a USA UPS mail service address,not her Canadian address.
She is wondering if she should use a credit card?
THANKS FOR THE CLARIFICATION.
Maybe try a credit card then

Does AMZN really do this everytime they disburse fund ?
Sellers often claim they see AMZN authorising $1 but never submit the charge.
After 9 years, the CC doesn't work in the US
