Square Account Banned — Amazon suspended my seller account

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

Amazon suspended my seller account. I've been dealing with this for about 6 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $19,877. I have tried contacting customer support 10 times with no resolution.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

There are several legal theories that could apply here. The strongest is probably Regulation E, which requires showing an unauthorized electronic fund transfer.

Before taking legal action, consider sending a formal demand letter. In many cases, this alone resolves the issue.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's attorney general? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

I ended up hiring an attorney to send the initial letter, which cost about $2-4 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I've seen this play out several times in my field.

In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
