I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.
Amazon suspended my seller account. I've been dealing with this for about 10 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
The amount being held/disputed is approximately $28,431. I have tried contacting customer support 10 times with no resolution.
Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?
This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.
The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the EFTA. Your state may provide additional protections.
You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.
I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.
Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.
In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager.
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.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.
I've seen this play out several times in my field.
I ended up filing with the appropriate government agency, which cost about $4-8 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should document everything. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

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