Sane Old Lady (@Irishgirl5_) reported@MarioNawfal Say Amazon mistakenly delivered his pkg to your house and you are bringing it over…. Ring the bell, put the pkg down and BACK UP ten ft. (lady was trespassing with her phone ready to video.) Push harder next time.

Habeeb (@hola_1c) reported@greyfinance Una no see bank issue resolved. Did you guys forget Amazon kdp didn't accept Una ACC anymore

david johnson (@davidjohns37245) reported@Birdyword @danielfoch The problem with data centers isn't that they look ugly. Amazon warehouses look ugly too. They are massive energy hogs. They put an incredible strain on the grid
-
Permaculture Paladin (@GrowAllYourFood) reported@IBCking01 @longstoryfarms It's a real possibility but its a confusing issue. Some I bought on Amazon before I realized the ban was actually real are very dim idk. See they can still be sold as "specialty/ replacement" bulbs for fashion, that sort of vibe but it seems to be a grey area. There are LOTS of LED bulbs being sold when you search "incandescent" as "old fashioned" too.

Vinay Kumar (@Vna_kr) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN @ajassy Disappointed with the lack of response. I proactively reported fraud, got my account reinstated, and now facing the same issue again with auto-cancelled orders. Multiple escalations sent, no reply. Please resolve ASAP
-
Erica Larson (@teaaddict13) reported@EdKrassen You know @JeffBezos hasn’t been the CEO of Amazon since 2021, right? Take up your issues with @ajassy the current CEO if you want your public shaming to be taken seriously enough for resulting accountability. (in this case, pulling questionable merch) Accuracy is important, Ed.

Sofia_Petrillo (@GrumpySofia) reported@WomenInTheBurbs @amazon Been moving more and more away from Amazon. It would SUCK to fully shut it down. But, I've lived through way worse.
-
kevin (@K_emm1872) reported@richo160875778 @AvonandsomerRob Deporting them solves majority of the issue, also jobs like taxi's, uber eats and similar, amazon flex etc dont go towards that count and almost anyone can do it, be a lot of cleaning jobs wont be on official lists, problem is plenty dont want stuff like that
-
Frankie Lovehall (@TroopaKing) reported@Ideas2Film @RedNinetyFour Some aren't and some are. Amazon Prime ex players have no such issue. Jamal Crawford and Austin Rivers have no such issue. It's the ppl like Melo that do.
-
miza82 (@miza82) reported@vergereviven @ChequyLion @epppyyy the yearly release isnt the problem. invincible is too big. it would take 20 years or even more to finish if the animators got more time which is undesirable. the solution is amazon reaching out to more studios and freelancers but they are greedy. people dont understand this.
-
Brett Glass - WY7BG (@brettglass) reported@coldstreams @Lowes On Lowes' site, the same product is often listed twice at different prices, with the cheaper price farther down in the listing (as if they are willing to give you a bargain only if you hunt). Walmart, Amazon, and Target are also playing pricing games.
-
Sheikh Hasan (@Sheikh_hasanamz) reportedMost Amazon sellers chase shiny objects. But boring work wins. I calculate inventory, optimize listings, and manage ads daily. These basics keep products in stock, costs down, and profits up. It's not flashy, but it works. I see it every day.
-
Dennis Tyll (@dennis_tyll) reported@amazon Order in January just now opened it. It looks nothing like the picture here. It is absolutely terrible. It has an orange beak looks like a duck. If I had opened the package in January, would have sent it back. As it is, it's going into the trash. AMAZON should be ashamed to have this on their website!
-
🐐 Dowman 🐐 (@itsaregary) reported@AndyGibsonTV @amazon @asda Asda get about 6% of the face value. A customer spends on average 60% more than card value. Millions of £'s left on gift cards is drawn down yearly. Gift cards are hugely profitable and why they try give instead of cash refunds.

Steven freedom warrior 🌸 🗽 (@stevov1981) reported@The_TUC @ShellyAsquith @amazon once again demonstrating that it has no redeeming qualities. It's only interest is to make money. A human life is of no consequence. I will not buy from this terrible organisation
-
Arnulfo Perez (@arnulfxx) reported@AmazonHelp Now Amazon say that I didn't send back the broken celular phone they send to me, but I have all the evidence that I did it. But now, they didn't answer to me. I suppose that Amazon Mexico prefer that mexican law force they to answer and prove that I didn't send the broken celular

DATTSANGRAM WASAMKAR (@Dattsangram_W) reported@AmazonHelp @AmazonIN This is just scripted talk. You committed to delivery TODAY after the first fail, and yet again, nothing! As a Prime member, I’m paying for reliability, not broken promises and fake "OTP" excuses. Stop the delays NOW. 😡
-
IBI (@primusibi) reportedNot trying to defend what’s being done with invincible like plz hire more animators, Stop wasting money on animators, Outsource the animation, whoever it is Robert Kirkman or Amazon plz fix this problem

IsThisIt (@IsThisIt11) reported@ChrisMurphyCT Amazon paid billions in taxes overall: About $9.3 billion in income taxes in 2024 Around $12.3 billion in total (U.S. + international cash taxes) in 2024. You failed to mention what percentage of taxes were paid by Corporations, billionaires and millionaires(~45%). But don't be mislead. The idea that heavier taxing of the uber-rich is a good thing is wrong. The Government will always spend more than it takes in and borrow money to cover it. (2024: tax revenues 4.92T, amount borrowed 1.83 T). "Houston, we have a problem." It borrows money by selling Treasury Securities. And who buys our debt: Domestic Investors and the Federal Reserve which total about 70-75% of debt offered to buy. And remember, we have to pay interest on the debt (over 1T$/yr). And that is your money that is only used to pay the interest on the Government credit card. No principal. So remember, when you hear free education, affordable housing, free subways, subsidized food prices, etc., you're paying it and you're paying the interest on the money borrowed to provide it. Just so you know, our Social Security fund which consists of employer/employee monies is invested in US Treasury Securities which pay interest back into the SS fund. So, the Government can't borrow from SS, but the SS fund can buy Treasury Securities which gives the Government SS monies that it couldn't borrow. Sneaky. Wake up. Understand that all the free **** you hear in the election cycle is paid by you. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. Sorry about the rant...

Ragnar Lothbrok59 (@RLothbrok59) reported@ChrisMurphyCT As always Chris you are a liar and an idiot. A quick Google search on Amazon "According to a 2026 report, Amazon’s federal income tax bill was roughly $1.2 billion, representing an effective tax rate of 19.6% on US earnings. While this reflects a significant amount, historical analysis has shown the company often paid a much lower rate, such as 6.1% in 2021, due to tax credits, depreciation breaks, and stock-based compensation." That does not include the billions paid in payroll. Also you moron, congress wrote the laws so why don't you fix them? What a useful idiot you are.

AquaPrime (@AquaPrimal) reportedIts important to learn so you don't waste money or think something is broken when it isn't. You don't want to be the infamous amazon review that gets mocked on the internet for not turning something on or forgetting to read the instructions.
-
Senthil Shivam (@Ramsenthil_) reported@AmazonHelp That is ridiculous. @AmazonHelp every time you contact them the "wait time" changes. So May 3rd now? Your social media team is just killing time while my orders are stuck as “Cancelled”. I don’t want more templates, I want the exchange orders I placed. Fix it now.@amazonIN

Ahmet (@Cat_05_05) reported@cptYuriAndropov @AngloVarangian Already Christians insults Jesus every day.Check Netflix,Disney Plus,Amazon Prime,HBO Max etc I think you should focus this problem inside you at first.

Steve Hostetler (@SCHostetler) reported@TurneyAuth7909 @WrnrWrites Because they just want a product for sale on Amazon. No one using AI to write prose or outline a story for them has an interest in reading or being an author. That might not be true for using it to find and correct syntax errors, but that ensures your book becomes training data.

Marcus (@RahimiMarcus) reported@AmazonErrorKing Is there a direct link for some reason won’t let me sign in I can copy past on my Amazon app
