Amazon Issued Refund for Rs. 26000 Without Return for Self-Ship Order – Senior support person told me wait for 50 days to get reimbursment. now support is telling me to accept this as loss. Seller Left Uncompensated (₹26,000 Loss)
customer claimed compatibility issues of my product.
amazon support issued refund to the customer, without my consent or permission. that too in self ship order and i was told, i will get the products back. and that order was worth Rs.26000.
amazon literally issued refund to the consumer without our consent/feedback. when we asked for the status of our products back? they lied and told us to wait for 30 days.
after 30 days, amazon SENIOR SUPPORT EXECUTIVE told to us wait for 50 days and we'll be reimbursed.
then after another 50 days, they told us to wait for 15 days until they can get the details of our case.
after 15-25 days, they told us, we won't be getting our money back. and whatever other statements was made to us by amazon was wrong.
i contacted seller support,
they told me to wait for resolutions. waited for 3 months, they kept ignoring us.
WHO TO TRUST NOW? EVEN AMAZON SELLER SUPPORT AND THIS FORUM IS PROVING TO BE USELESS AFTERALL

Somewhat the same happened to us. In our case, Amazon reimbursed our amount of 17983/- in December 2024, but in March 2024 they again deducted this amount from our account in the name of "clawback." They said that they delivered the product to me; actually, they didn't deliver it. We asked them to show us the receiving, but they refused. Overall we are in loss of 17983 to date.

after reading all such messages I wonder how small seller become profitable? I am sure many of us are making loss and day in day out working for Amazon even without salary. I myself made loss and without advitisement their is no sell.

@Adam_Amazon_ has not responded for the past four weeks. I had already waited three months previously for this same case, during which Adam was handling it. In total, it has now been around 4–5 months.
I’ve also shared call recordings of my conversations with Amazon support via your X/Twitter DMs. If you have access, I kindly request you to listen to those as well.
If there is still no resolution, I will have no choice but to make this case public. I want to emphasize that I have followed every instruction provided by your support team and have done nothing wrong in this matter.
I received an order on Amazon for Rs. 26,000. I shipped the products. A few days later, the customer claimed there was a compatibility issue. We sent a message through Amazon asking the customer to reach out to our support team for assistance, and we clearly mentioned that the product is covered under a 6-month warranty. However, if someone intends to commit fraud, they obviously won’t contact our support.
Despite this, Amazon support issued a refund to the customer without my permission. This is not standard operating procedure, especially for self-ship orders. How the refund was issued in the first place is still a mystery.
Support asked me to wait, saying the return parcel may not have been updated in the system and that the AWB might be missing. They requested patience.
After this incident, I disabled multiple quantity orders for all our products on Amazon because it became too much of a hassle.
Later, a senior executive told me to wait. They said that if I don’t receive the returned item within 30 days, I would automatically be issued a reimbursement after another 50 days. I was also told that a SAFE-T claim was not applicable in my case.
I waited for 80 days. No seller support executive was able to understand my case. A refund should not have been issued without receiving the returned products. I was repeatedly ghosted, transferred unnecessarily, or given false promises of callbacks. When I raised a written ticket, I was told the seller would bear the cost of the refund — Rs. 26,000. So, Amazon takes a 10–15% commission, the customer gets a free product, and the seller bears the full cost?
If I had been informed of this from the beginning, I would have tried to get the items back. My case is very simple.
All I am seeking is a fair reimbursement, which was promised to me by a senior Amazon support executive. We have 5-star ratings on Google and provide high-quality products along with excellent after-sales service. We have never done anything wrong with our customers. i expect the amazon to issue refund to us. and penalise the employee (if found guilty) who issue refund and permanently ban that customer amazon account. Being customer centric is good, but not at the expense of your loyal seller/members of your platform.
