    @PlatoCurse @GretaThunberg @FatherBob Preserving our wildlife for example it is true they are dying, brazil is cutting down the Amazon with little replanting, ice caps are melting which is causing polar bears to die and sea levels to rise some islands are already seeing a difference.

  • vigilantandwary social graces (@vigilantandwary) reported

    @AmazonHelp I placed an order and provided a payment source where a glitch occurred and you are refusing to take the money that is sitting there. "your" relevant department was supposed to contact me but has failed to do so. instead I was told what all doesn´t work and got threatened as well

  • libraryzombie Libraryzombie, Urban Hermit - 🇨🇦🥄🧶🐱⛤ (@libraryzombie) reported

    For the last year, I had no buzzer for my apt. This caused problems with me receiving deliveries that weren't via Amazon delivery, Intelcomm or Canada Post. These three were on-point & got my packages to me every time. (more)

  • _sebin__thomas_ Sebin (@_sebin__thomas_) reported

    When I try to buy a product from @AmazonHelp which is essential for me but they are telling that it is not deliverable. Since yesterday also it was deliverable but today I checked that and showed undeliverable. Can you please help to solve this problem.@amazon

  • mitsucolt5566 Error 405 - Method Not Allowed (@mitsucolt5566) reported

    @paulkrugman considered that all $$ have to pass thru the swift system which middleman takes a huge cut each time $$ change hand, and it is so slow, yes, it makes sense. anyone with a phone and internet connect in arctic or amazon forest can get his $$ instantly. worth every ct.

  • Ravi_Kabadi Shriyan (@Ravi_Kabadi) reported

    @AmazonHelp Please arrange a callback now. will explain the issue.

  • dsmith12434 Darius Smith (@dsmith12434) reported

    @amazon @ChaseSupport Moving on from chase!!! You guys have some kind of internal bullshit that is costing me a ton of money. Didn't have this problem with other banks; so I'll be switching. Amazon, I'm including you because it was an amazon rewards ....

  • AmazonHelp Amazon Help (@AmazonHelp) reported

  • ColinMacphee1 Colin Macphee (@ColinMacphee1) reported

    @DrawingEggen @ripx4nutmeg What's your problem? Shop sells various products So does Amazon

  • DerrickVanZ Derrick Van (@DerrickVanZ) reported

    @SquawkStreet @jimcramer Amazon does have an app store. Google does have an app store. The difference is Android devices are not locked down to them. For an xplat app you have to buy it twice if you have android and ios devices. OTOH apple vets all apps: you're paying for that.

  • thejendra Author World Publishing (@thejendra) reported

    @SmokingSkills_ @coolfunnytshirt Most websites like Amazon, Flipkart (at least in India), also store credit card details of buyers but only partially and they won't store the CVV number and also depend on OTPs. The problem is mainly for international transactions where OTPs are not required.

  • Matthew53687611 Matthew Bailey (@Matthew53687611) reported

    @AmazonHelp Yes exactly. PS5s are never in stock, which is why having it stolen is such an issue! Unless you can set up an automatic replacement, I now have to spend hours a week refreshing the page trying to get one during a restock before they sell out in 30s.

  • eldhopjohn ej1990 (@eldhopjohn) reported

    @AmazonHelp I have recieved a damaged product. I requested return. But seller smartly evaded till return period gets over. I raised and AtoZ claim. Your staff closed the claim in support of seller without having done any genuine investigation. Now your staff is not responding to the issue.

  • joshchafetz Josh Chafetz (@joshchafetz) reported

    Is anyone else having this problem where links to Amazon on Twitter no longer display an image of the book cover but instead just show up as a link and nothing more? Anyone know how to fix?

  • mclauclin1 Ken Mclauclin (@mclauclin1) reported

    @dave_stickland Makes sense. Once you advertise to the website you should see a huge trickle down to amazon. Brand searches increase on amazon, you can charge more and you're building an audience through your own store.

  • bladerunnerspam Mr.baba yaga (@bladerunnerspam) reported

    @anaashark Shipping problem like amazon won't do it I just have to tell relatives in Germany to buy and send and imma pay em for all that blah blah and I'm wait to buy a Lotta **** so gotta Wait

  • LMFord2 LM Ford-Author (@LMFord2) reported

    @KWriterK I've been posting links for my books, but the Amazon links more & more have started not showing the book picture & other info, just a few letters & numbers in blue.☹ I've communicated the problem to Amazon but they don't seem to be interested in fixing it.

  • PurushaDeepak Deepak Purusha (@PurushaDeepak) reported

    @AmazonHelp I need a resolution, its that simple. U guys make it sound like a big corporate issue. If Amazon can't provide a resolution to an issue which is not a customer's fault. Im not concerned with what went wrong, where, all I need the products that I ordered. I need it ASAP.

  • Purple_Hill A.J (@Purple_Hill) reported

    @RyanSAdams ETH is a centralised pre-mined dumpsterfire running a Amazon server it will never work. Stop shilling you pathetic scam bag.

  • NymphiaXX NymphiaX | Any Pronouns | Comms. Open (@NymphiaXX) reported

    @deervergence agreed. my friend spoke about this too on discord in my server (in the media chat bc i know ur in my server if you wanna look) Lego has more of an understanding of what theyre doing + their design team VP is literally gay. like. this is not the same as amazon claiming "pride"

  • dsmith12434 Darius Smith (@dsmith12434) reported

    @AmazonHelp yeah; that's exactly why I'd have to terminate my services with you guys as well ... it has your name on the card but you guys won't step in to help fix it =/ that's why you guys are going to re-pay me in the form of my amazon prime payment.

  • JaeElBooks Jae El Foster (@JaeElBooks) reported

    @AmazonHelp Good customer service would have been understanding the urgency of the situation and shipping immediately. Bad customer service is knowing the situation and still not shipping until it will be too late. Bravo, @Amazon for yet another let-down.

  • XRP_accumulator XRP accumulator (@XRP_accumulator) reported

    @AmazonHelp While your there, please tell them the old app was perfect and next time don't fix what ain't broken.

  • saeed_baig saeed baig (@saeed_baig) reported

    @AhmadWaleed We already selling from Pakistan on amazon UK by using Pakistani Passport but the reason was cannot use pakistani Address to make address now problem solved all credit goes to Sunny Ali .

  • the_final_edge Steve Y (@the_final_edge) reported

    @jimcramer Amazon has an App Store on Android - Google does not install it stock or list it on the Play Store. Apple also is the gatekeeper for App Stores (of which there is only one, theirs) shown on iPhone. The problem is monopolization of App Stores, hands down.

    @NayTheGeek Out here the library has digital books available. You sign in with your card and check out books on their website through amazon. It’s pretty cool. I don’t read as much either though. Not enough time in the day.
