New U.S Amazon Account application DENIED instantly

[jerryc]

Hi Guys, I need some help.
I tried to register a new Amazon account with new email address, new name, new EIN and its registered address, New real personal credit card number, but for the card holder's name, I put new company's name(not matching), then a new phone which was verified. After completing the whole process including tax identification, I got this:
Your application to register as a merchant on amazon has been declined. Our review is a proprietary process, and we cannot share the reasons for failed applications, nor the criteria by which applications are evaluated.
This is so frustrating! I guess it might has something to do with the credit card so I went back and add the same credit card information but with the right matching name but still it's denied. I heard rumor that It's very hard to register a new Amazon pro seller account recently. Not sure if it's right and don't why my account application was denied instantly, Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

Your problem was probably the wrong name on the card. If it's not printed on the card, don't try it. If Amazon's locked up now, you may have just burned the card # and EIN. Is there a problem with using the name that's on the card? Might be worth a call to see if you can just have them change the name to the correct one and continue setting up the account.

Indeed, new IP, new PC. only except the name, but why is it denied directly? I hope it won't ruin my EIN... Can I un-register my account?

It's because I thought it doesn't really matter. I got the EIN but I　didn't apply for a real credit card yet. Damn it, I hope I didn't screw my EIN... So you think my EIN is wasted?? Thank you!

If the billing address matches your previous registered information you are doomed.
