Major Issues with Commission Charge on Refunds and Safe-T Claim Policy

Dear Amazon.in Seller Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention some major issues that are affecting my business on Amazon India. These issues pertain to the commission charges on refunds and the Safe-T claim policy.

1. **Commission Charge on Refunds**:

I would like to express my concern regarding the commission charges imposed on refunds. It seems unreasonable that sellers have to bear the refund commission when an order is refunded to the customer. This practice is not in line with fair business practices. Sellers should not be penalized for refunds, especially when they have already fulfilled their part of the transaction. I kindly request a review of this policy to ensure a fair and equitable solution for sellers on the platform. The most of time the buyer cancels the order even after the order was delivered to them, the Amazon refunds those orders to them without asking our point of view. This is affecting our business badly. First, our product got wasted because these are non-returnable items then we also have to bear additional commission on refunds which is 120₹-200₹ (4x than our per order profits). Our 4 orders profit got wasted only in 1 refund even the order was delivered to the customer from our side.

2. **Safe-T Claim Policy**:

My second concern revolves around the Safe-T claim policy. When we file a Safe-T claim for orders that have been refunded, we receive a message stating that the order will be reimbursed within 50 days of the refund. However, in these cases, this reimbursement is not processed within the stipulated time frame. This delay in reimbursement causes financial strain on our business operations.

Moreover, when we attempt to file Safe-T claims for orders after the 50-day period has passed, we are informed that these orders are not eligible for a Safe-T claim because such claims must be filed within 15 days of the refund. This contradiction in policies creates confusion and frustration for sellers.

I kindly request that Amazon.in Seller Support addresses these two critical issues promptly. A fair and transparent commission policy regarding refunds is essential for the sustainability of our business on the platform. Additionally, the Safe-T claim policy should be reviewed to ensure consistency and adherence to the stated timelines.

I believe that resolving these issues will not only benefit my business but also enhance the overall seller experience on Amazon India. I appreciate your attention to these matters and look forward to a prompt resolution.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Sincerely,

We sellers can crib and keep on writing these issues on forums day in and day out but it will never be of any use. As amazon will never ever listen to seller's grievances.

Rightly Said, Refund Commission & Easy ship charges on Courier return orders takes away profit of around 60% successful delivered orders. This should be either removed or reduce to minimal.

We too facing issues with Safe-T claims as been denied on pretext of exceeds limit & we don't understand whts the meaning of that as our's are fragile products always shipped via Easyship & easyship is responcible for handling in transit , taking back return from buyer and packing it safely for transit ?? Most of our return items are delivered as damaged as not packed well by return teams ( and buyer had not mentioned any damaged item delivered reason for return ) so why we are not given claims on such order as we are not responcible for such damage , besides whats more we are even denied for claims on order where replcement order is shipped and delivered to buyer but Safe-T executives don't take that fact in account and simply deny the case . In this scenario amazon is going worst to do business as we also facing tha yoga & K vaish fake orders , now this thing. Amazon please update yourself or else one day you'll also become SNAPDEAL as you're following same policies .

Hope things will imporve at Amazon soon .

Yes about SAFE T claim , when sent replies within 24 hrs even though they said like images are not clear. so these are not good practice. Amazon has to streamline their SAFE T claim policies and do some favor to sellers as well.

This is Amazon's income strategy. Even if Amazon accepts the Safe T Claim, sellers are reimbursed like beggars. We face this situation almost everyday, where customers are placing high value orders & then returns some other used/broken products & Amazon reimburses 1% -2% of the order value, wherein as a seller we lost the entire product. May be amazon's employees are only creating such fake orders & looting sellers both ways.

Yes, you are saying right as we are getting lost our 4 order profit in only one refund and getting more loss when Safe-t claim denied for getting wrong product also in return shipment.

But e-commerce companies making only profits by imposing different kinds of commission/fixed charges etc.

One main question is when we are paying commission to e-commerce companies then why they are taking "Fixed charges"???.

After charging so much commission they are showing insights to reduce the price of product or do more & more paid advertisement to get more visibility to sell the product on website.
