amazon killed my account the other day because i tried to buy a gift card for my friend while i was traveling abroad. it was legitimate. they refused to reopen the account and suggested i make a new one.
i bought a $500 prepaid amazon gift card for cash and made a new account with a new email.
guess which account also got suspended today.
@sneak Friends don't let friends use Amazon. Getting an account locked and told off by support when there's no real reason it should be closed, should've been a trigger to stop giving them your money.
@doenietzomoeilijk thanks for this helpful reply, it just so happens i love going to the supermarket in person to buy soap during a pandemic, i will change my ways immediately
@sneak @doenietzomoeilijk are there no other online businesses that sell soap? Has Amazon successfully created it's monopoly already?
In the Netherlands there are numerous small and large ecommerce and deliveries that sell and send to your front door and are not Amazon. Not sure if that is unique though.
@berkes @doenietzomoeilijk being european, you have no experience with how good home field amazon actually is. they do same day or very early next day delivery on a range of items larger than all of the european amazon stores combined. the ux of amazon.com vs amazon.{everythignelse} is basically incomparable
