Amazon.co.uk Selling privilages removed

[Senyo]

Hello got an email saying amazon.co.uk selling privilages have been removed.

But when I go on amzon.de or .es or .fr or .it they do not state the account is suspended just amzon.co.uk.

My details are being verified at the moment so is it likely my privilages will be removed on the other amzon sites too ?

Yes they all will go over time if counterfeit goods are sold. What reason have they given for removing the selling privileges. If its bad metrics for the UK the others could stay open if your metrics remain good.

Hello my Amazon. Co. UK selling privilages were removed because I was linked to a previously closed account. So I was wondering if they automically shut down the other sites, because they haven't done so yet. As of now business registration and a household bill are being verified.

Thanks

Its a tough one, you have linked which is breach of amazon.co.uk terms and been suspended. Did you sell on the other marketplaces before. If so you will be suspended in time, if not maybe you will survive, but you cannot run a business thinking will I be suspended tomorrow.

Hello micky thanks for your reply, I haven't sold anything on any of the marketplaces, at the the moment as it stands now I have uploaded a bank statement and my business certificate, and it states on Amazon that 'the information is being checked, and if they require further information from me they will contact me'.

So do you think because of the link on. Co. UK Amazon the rest will soon be automatically suspended too or do I have a chance that the rest will survive?

Thanks
Chris

You will just have to wait while they are checking, but my guess is non will open as its UK are opening your seller central account. If the account were already open you would have been in with a chance.

Alirght will wait it out and see what happens

[Senyo]

How long do you reckon I should wait before I contact them to ask what is happening? as of now I have been waiting since saturday evening , so one and a half days.

[MICKY H]

I would say one week, then e mail them

[Senyo]

alright cheers micky

I have had over 20 Amazon accounts and I can tell you that you can still be selling in the other markets such as Italy, France and Germany.
The point is be very careful about the Spanish one as that is the tricky one. If you have got suspended on the Spanish Amazon previously, then do not take the risk selling there. But you should be fine selling on the others.

************Just be aware that you will not get suspended in those markets if your previous Italian, German and French accounts related to the previous account did not get suspended*************
If you got suspended on for instance the French Amazon account on your previous Amazon account, then donot use the French one on this account as it will get suspended within 24 hours.

Good luck

Hello Micky I have received an email from amazon to say that my information has been checked out and that I am all clear, my seller account is now open :D

Now I plan to sell mainly electronical goods, is there any way you recommend I do my selling to prevent account suspension on to stay under the radar from amazon.

Thanks
Chris

Just sell slowly, imagine you are planting an oak tree seed, watch it grow slowly. You should be aiming to have this account in good standing order for October so you can really go full steam for the Christmas market.

Alright thanks for the advice will definately take it slow.

@Workhard.Behappy I have had a previouse uk account with uk bank phone and address, but on that I didnt sell on any other marketplace just in the UK one I sold. I have now created a new account and im in Germany with german address phone bank and so on , but had my .co.uk selling privilages removed due to a link to a previously closed account a couple hours , after I entered my ID information on amazon. So are you saying I should be careful about selling in Spain? and as for UK I cannot sell there anyway, so I would just plan mainly germany and then some italy and france, my items may most likely have german written on packaging , does this normally cause problems with customers from non german speaking countries?

Thanks
Chris
