ReviewTerminal Summary

Customers report a severely degraded experience at Amazon (1.5/5 rating) marked by chronic delivery failures, unresponsive customer service, account lockouts without justification, refund fraud, and a pattern of broken promises.

What customers love

  • Fast delivery when it works (historically reliable, now inconsistent)
  • Easy returns process
  • Wide product selection and competitive pricing

Common concerns

  • Delivery failures: packages arrive late, to wrong addresses, left unsecured, or not delivered despite promised dates
  • Customer service incompetence and dishonesty: agents lie about refunds, disconnect calls, lack access to account information, and refuse to honor written commitments
  • Account lockouts and financial holds: accounts frozen without clear cause, gift card balances seized ($339-$960), funds inaccessible with no recourse
  • Refund fraud: customers charged for returned items, promised refunds never issued, A-to-Z guarantee not honored despite proof
  • Third-party seller and driver accountability gaps: wrong items sent, theft by delivery drivers, Amazon sides with sellers over customers

Been a Prime member since whenever it…

Been a Prime member since whenever it cost half what it does now. Search is a mess these days, half the results are brands I've never heard of with five letters that don't spell anything. Returns are still the easiest part. Boxes show up in two days like clockwork though, can't really argue with that. Wife says I have a problem. Probably right.

Erratic messages.

Most of the time great but suddenly instead of getting messages on my mobile I am getting Relay text messages on my landline. Fine you would think but this morning I got an imminent delivery message for an item delivered yesterday and this afternoon I am told another delivery is three stops away BUT it was delivered two hours previously. What the F is going on?
