Then, set your warning inclinations so Amazon knows to show you important things, pictures, and thoughts that identify with the ones you’ve picked.
In case you’re in a shopping disposition, Spark will show a shopping sack symbol at the lower part of your screen where you can buy the item. There will likewise be a number close to the sack so you can perceive the number of items is accessible to purchase on Amazon.

From selling books to one of the largest companies in the world, Amazon has revolutionized itself and the industry. Change that has been brought by the company due to the contribution of the above factors is phenomenal.
Since the ‘Malgudi Days’ the most significant change is “the connection and trust factor” between the consumer and the seller. For example, one buys a product or one sells a product without knowing each other and with a least of conversation between the two. Since Amazon has been launched the world of e-commerce has only been seen rising to the economy.
Amazon seller accounts are easy to build and deal with, but Amazon policies are not the same way. Amazon appeal service is to deal with the same. Amazon has a strict seller policy to ensure a healthy feedback system based on its guidance for its users. Restricting a seller account is “no better deal” for Amazon as well.
This is why Amazon gives its valuable clients chances to reinstate their investment. But like randomly said, “writing to impress is an art”. So, writing an appeal letter is an art of the zone in Amazon. Let us known some basic theories to undertake while dealing with Amazon seller account suspension.
Amazon appeal service for seller account suspension: Introduction
There can be many ways to execute the Amazon appeal service. Nevertheless, we should brief only two prime methods to deal with it.
Firstly
Let us know why a seller account is suspended on Amazon. The Amazon seller policy, in brief, is described below. Please pay attention to details as this might save you the “breath of a lifetime”. As per Amazon, it ensures a “safe buying and selling experience”.
Provide accurate information to the company and its customers all the time
Never try to fake your identity. Why should one hide if she/he has an option, to be honest, and have a piece of the mind at the same time? So update the information if you have got changes in it as soon as possible.
Act fairly to the customers and do NOT misuse its services or features
As per Amazon, the ‘unfair means’ are:
“Providing misleading or inappropriate information to Amazon or our customers, such as by creating multiple detail pages for the same product or posting offensive product images
Manipulating sales rank (such as by accepting fake orders or orders that you have paid for) or making claims about sales rank in product titles or descriptions
Attempting to increase the price of a product after an order is confirmed
Artificially inflating web traffic (using bots or paying for clicks, for example)
Attempting to damage another Seller, their listings, or ratings
Allowing other people to act on your behalf in a way that violates Amazon’s policies or your agreement with Amazon”.
Never attempt to abuse other seller’s listings or reviews or try to influence them
This may include the following restrictions:
Asking customers to write only positive reviews and remove the negative ones.
Reviewing your own products or competitor’s product.
Asking for reviews from only those who had a positive experience.
Paying other customers to write feedback and review your profile in exchange for products or services.
Never indulge in inappropriate or unhealthy communications
Hither, you cannot market your products. Further, as a seller, your communications are preferably expected to be professional and representing Amazon on the platform.
Never try to communicate with a buyer through other means of communication
Never indulge in communications outside the platform. You should be obliged only to the buyer and seller communication platform on Amazon.
Never try to undermine the Amazon sales processes
Do NOT try to circumvent a buyer to other websites as a part of the marketing process and never try to complete your transactions outside the principles of Amazon.
Do not operate more than one selling account if not required as per your business needs
Never rush on opening more than one selling account except for “legitimate business justification”. The operanda of rules here as per Amazon are:
“You own multiple brands and maintain separate businesses for each
You manufacture products for two distinct and separate companies
You are recruited for an Amazon program that requires separate accounts”
Never try to copy another person’s brand or logo
Do not try to indulge in copyright infringement claims or you will end up losing your account.
Not following the above policies will lead to an Amazon account suspension. Let us know now the second step to deal with the Amazon appeal service.
Secondly: How to write an appeal letter?
Now we shall learn to write an appeal letter. As a second approach to our propaganda of Amazon appeal service. Let us know some quick tricks to write an appeal letter to let Amazon know our faults. And let the company know that the seller is too serious about his/her profile.
Acknowledge your mistakes
The correction of a mistake starts with acknowledging your mistake in the first place. Accept all your faults and write them about not repeating the mistakes again.
Plan of Action
The plan of action includes writing to Amazon under the heading “correcting my mistakes”. Hereabouts, the following points are worth mentioning while writing an appeal letter:
Write about what you take as the plan of action for the removal of your faults.
Stay in a professional and serious tone while writing the letter.
It should appear in your words to Amazon that you are worth considering for reinstatement.
There should a tone of melancholy as well to showcase that you were not playing while your account was suspended.
Summary
Always write your summary considering all the factors such as preventive measures taken, a glimpse of future promises that will be kept, etc.
Amazon flex appeal service
As per Amazon, “Amazon Flex is a program where independent contractors, called delivery partners, deliver Amazon orders. Hundreds of millions of items are available through Amazon, including electronics, household essentials, and much more. Delivery partners use their own vehicles to deliver packages to Amazon customers.”
There are two kinds of deactivation:
Temporary: The reasons for temporary deactivations are:
Too many late deliveries or no deliveries.
Undelivered item not returned to Amazon on time.
Working for a third party using Amazon flex block.
Making exceptions without any reason or simply not complying with the policies.
Permanent: The reasons for permanent deactivations are:
Too many late shifts.
Too many missed shifts.
Here too, after getting suspension you can appeal for your account to be reinstated. Amazon flex appeal service is a different topic to handle but with the same strategy, it too can be handled well.
How long does it take?
It takes from 24-72 hours for Amazon to reinstate an account after a successful appeal. However, as per experts, a well written and optimized appeal letter can take only 48 hours as the maximum time.
Conclusion
An Amazon appeal service is not a hard topic to handle. But if dealt with carelessly can lead to account deactivation on Amazon.
Amazon has over 2 million third-party sellers. It covers more than half of its sales. Hence there is a tremendous amount of competition among sellers of Amazon. This makes the feedback more valuable as it plays an important role in increasing the seller’s visibility on Amazon. Negative feedback on Amazon is nothing but a headache for a seller. Removing it becomes an important part to deal with.
Let us bring some important factors into consideration while dealing with Amazon’s negative feedback removal.
Introduction: What is negative feedback on Amazon?
Negative feedback as per Wikipedia is, “Negative feedback (or balancing feedback) occurs when some function of the output of a system, process, or mechanism is fed back in a manner that tends to reduce the fluctuations in the output, whether caused by changes in the input or by other disturbances”.
Or in other words, feedback that downgrades a system (say business) is called negative feedback.
Similarly, on Amazon, negative feedback ruins a successfully running business. Below is a snippet of feedback and its look-alikes.
After-effects of negative feedback
Without a heavenly rating, a seller can not buy a buyer’s trust. Since Amazon consists of ratings out of five,
4 and 5 are considered good or positive feedback
3 is considered neutral, and
below 3 is a bad rating or negative feedback
Let us discuss some prospects of having neutral and or negative feedback.
Firstly
Your chance of winning a buy box decreases. Buy box gives you exclusive rights to be more noticeable and offers more products once the customers subscribe to your buy box.
What is a buy box?
The buy box is a box on the product detail page that allows sellers’ products to be added simultaneously. To ascertain the winner of the buy box Amazon counts the overall reviews by customers to a seller. A product sold brings either loss or gain to the buy box seller score.
A good review buys you 100 points while negative feedback on Amazon pushes you for a loss of 500 points.
For the above-described buy box awarding system a seller with negative feedback has either very little or no chance of winning it.
Secondly
Negative feedback could result in the loss of selling prerogatives on Amazon. As a seller performance meter, Amazon measures Order Defect Rate (ODR). As discussed earlier ratings 1 and 2 are considered negative feedback on Amazon. Any ODR above 1% is considered bad for a seller’s profile health. That means any seller that has more than 1% of negative feedback on Amazon can result in his or her loss of selling privileges.
What is ODR (Order Defect Rate)?
ODR is a percentage of seller’s products that have received negative feedback on Amazon. This is again a result of poor customer reactions to your list of products.
Thirdly
It is considered that neutral feedback on Amazon is also bad for a seller profile. Furthermore, Amazon does not measure an average seller’s 5-star rating. Rather, it counts positive ratings from the past 12 months.
Since Amazon considers 4 or 5-star as the only positive rating, 3-star works as “no good”.
How to remove negative feedback on Amazon?
Although removing negative feedback on Amazon is a complex process. However, we will discuss the most probable ways of removing negative feedback on Amazon.
Requesting removal of negative feedback on Amazon
If negative feedback on Amazon violates Amazon guidelines, a seller has the authority of requesting removal. Sometimes it is as easy as “checking buyers’ feedback”. Feedbacks that violate the guidelines on Amazon can be removed upon request.
Here is what Amazon considers an “absurd and obscene” comment. As per Amazon,
“Amazon reserves the right to remove feedback that isn’t directly related to the buying experience or violates one of our guidelines. If your comments include any of the following, your feedback is subject to removal:
Promotional content: This includes anything of a promotional nature such as comments about or links to other merchants or websites.
Obscene or abusive language: Please use helpful and appropriate language when participating in the Amazon Community.
Personal information: You shouldn’t include information that identifies other Amazon.com visitors.
Product reviews: It’s more appropriate to review products on the product detail page. Note: For more information about leaving product reviews, go to Customer Reviews.”
FBA (Fulfilled By Amazon) sellers have the adroitness of auto removal while non-FBA sellers have to do it on their own.
How to remove negative feedback on Amazon?: For non-FBA sellers
Follow the below steps to remove negative feedback on Amazon (for non-FBA sellers only).
Click customers and orders from the left-hand side.
Enter the booking ID and select the appropriate option.
Fill up the form to remove negative feedback on Amazon.
Reaching out to the buyer: ‘DOs and DON’Ts’
If your request for the removal of negative feedback fails, contact the buyer. If you are polite enough, they might have a change of heart. Henceforth, let us commence on the DOs and DON’Ts of the strategy.
DOs
Be timely with your approach while talking to the customers. As Amazon gives only 60 days to remove their negative feedback on Amazon.
Furthermore, apologize to the customer saying sorry about the mishappening.
DON’Ts
Never offer an exchange of services or goods for the removal of negative feedback.
Never rush while requesting the removal. Follow the process of apology, discussing a solution to the problem, and requesting the removal for creating the possibility. Go to the feedback manager page on seller central and talk to the customer.
A responsible seller: Replying to the negative feedback
Being a responsible seller never hurts i.e. it won’t waste your time. When it is clear that any of the strategies wouldn’t work reply to the customer’s feedback. At least, other buyers need to know that you made an effort.
Conclusion: It’s not the end of the world!
Although removing negative feedback on Amazon is a tough and complex task to do. But trying and losing might save you lessons for the future. It is never the end of the world if lost the case or trial.
Are you an Amazon seller facing consistent returns? If Amazon returns have been a niche for you, then this is the right blog to indulge with. There can be many reasons for Amazon’s returns. Some of them are:
Highly-priced: You have either a high price on your product or you are the one unaware of the market.

Accidentally ordered: Sometimes customers do feel that this isn’t the right product they were buying. In such as well you face Amazon returns to your seller’s account.
No longer needed: In such a case user is quite depressed about buying the product. Hence he renders it as ‘no longer needed’.
Unauthorized purchase: Hereabouts, you have mismatched your product’s photo with the actual product or have over beautified your product to mismatch the details.
Any of the above cases if mishandled can trigger account suspension on Amazon. Let us discuss all the prospects of the Amazon seller account while a product is returned to the seller.
Amazon returns policy: Introduction
Amazon says, “You can return most items purchased at an Amazon Physical store for a full refund within 30 days of purchase. In addition, eligible items purchased on Amazon.com can be returned at a participating physical store location.

While most sellers offer a returns policy equivalent to Amazon.com’s, some seller returns policies may vary. You can view the return policy of the seller before you purchase an item by viewing the Returns and Refunds Policy section of the seller profile page. To view the seller’s return policy, once you’ve ordered, you can select your order in the Returns Center”.
Using Amazon returns as a business model: Fluffy sales equals an opportunity
Sometimes losses offer a business opportunity. Let us discuss some business models that fit into our resourcing model of using Amazon returns:
Refurbished product: The product returned can be resold as a refurbished item on Amazon or other eCommerce platforms. Refurbished electronic items have newly emerged as a growing market. Successful companies like 2Gud are a good example of it.
Second-hand market: The returned product can be sold in the local second-hand market or can be rented over for ‘maybe better’ results.
“Per parts sale”: The product can be broken into its important (say valuable) component parts and these parts can cover good revenue in the market. For example, a TV set has distinct parts like IC chips, processors, LEDs, etc. These parts are of high-grade value and withhold high revenue in them.
Outsourcing return: There are companies that buy and ship the Amazon returned items for free. For example, at Kohl’s Store, one can effortlessly return the Amazon bought products for free.
Benefits of Amazon returns
Amazon quotes, “As part of this prepaid returns label program, Amazon automatically authorizes U.S. returns that fall within Amazon’s return policy.For return requests that do not fall into the Prepaid Returns Label program, we recommend that you respond to return requests within 24 hours.
