I am writing to seek urgent assistance regarding persistent and significant deductions on my Amazon Seller account that are severely impacting my ability to sell profitably.
For the past three months, I have been facing unexplained and excessive "Other" charges.
Past 2 Months: I have been charged approximately INR 12,000 in what Amazon identifies as "Other" charges related to "weight and dimension."
My product genuinely weighs 100 grams, and with standard packaging, the total weight is consistently 105 grams. However, Amazon is apparently charging me as if my product weighs 500 grams – which is a massive discrepancy and far beyond any reasonable or permissible limit for my item.
To even attempt to resolve this, I incurred additional costs by purchasing a weight machine to accurately verify my product's weight, which itself has added to my financial burden and already exceeds the amounts being deducted for these errors.
I have already submitted the necessary documentation, including weight images and a dimension form, to Seller Support. Despite my efforts, I have not yet received a satisfactory response or resolution. It is incredibly difficult to understand how a 105-gram product can be misidentified as 500 grams, and how this can go uncorrected after providing evidence.
This situation feels incredibly unfair, and it seems as though the seller's perspective and accurate data are not being considered. I am genuinely struggling to comprehend how to continue selling on Amazon under these circumstances of arbitrary and significant deductions.
Adding to this immense frustration, I have filed a "clawback form" to dispute these incorrect charges FOUR (4) separate times. Each time, my form has been rejected, despite my meticulous efforts. A day before yesterday, I submitted the form again, including 7 detailed images per ASIN as required, proving the correct weight and dimensions. Yet, there has been no resolution, and the forms continue to be rejected without clear explanation or action.
Now, on top of these unresolved weight and dimension issues that have been bleeding my account for months, I've also been hit with a new, unexplained "Other" deduction labeled "splat_use_case_3976_label" for approximately INR 4,000 today (May 29, 2025).
.
Today (May 29, 2025): I have been hit with another unexplained "Other" charge of INR 4,000 under the label "splat_use_case_3976_label." This is a completely unfamiliar label, and I have no idea what it pertains to.
These combined deductions are making it extremely difficult to operate. How can sellers manage their business effectively when such large, unexplained amounts are being consistently debited?
Could anyone in the community shed light on what "splat_use_case_3976_label" signifies? Also, what is the best way to dispute these recurring and seemingly incorrect weight and dimension charges?
I desperately need this case resolved as soon as possible. Any guidance or assistance from experienced sellers or Amazon representatives would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
