Amazon Reviews Summary

The company's reputation is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from frequent delivery delays, inadequate customer support, and challenges with returns. Many customers report frustration with unresponsive service representatives and convoluted processes for refunds and account issues. While some positive feedback highlights the convenience and product availability, the overarching sentiment reveals a decline in service quality and reliability. Customers express concerns about counterfeit products and a perceived lack of accountability, suggesting a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service approach and improve operational efficiency to restore trust.

Alexa is so cool
November 22, 2017

I use Alexa almost every day to play music, check the weather, play games, and find out the latest news. Very affordable and useful. I recommend it without any reservations.

An absolutely first-rate company. I've bought many, many products on Amazon (including a 50" TV) and I continue to be amazed at their professionalism. Every once in a while I need to return something and the process is a snap.! 00% satisfied with products, pricing, fast delivery and customer service. Amazon is the best!

Pretty Damned Good
November 20, 2017

I have been shopping with Amazon for a number of years now and in all that time I've only been let down once and that was by a seller and not Amazon themselves so, all in all, I would say that was pretty damned good.

Never dissatisfied!
November 20, 2017

I have loved shopping on Amazon for years because of Prime shipping (and free movies!), amount of selection and prices. My favorite aspect, however, is customer service which cannot be topped! I will forever be a loyal customer and count on Amazon for many things from tissue to furniture.

Absolutely LOVE Amazon!
November 20, 2017

I absolutely LOVE Amazon! I have an Amazon Business Prime account.
Better than ANY other online store for the variety of items available!... 95% of all my online purchases are with Amazon!

I used to shop on ebay--- years ago... Now I only shop there when I cant get what I want, at the price I want, on Amazon, or anywhere else.

I have never really had an issue with Customer Service... any time I have had an issue, they have always made it right, in one way or another.

I believe that people who have had issues with Customer Service, are due the fact that so many 3rd party sellers have problems with their products, and a lot of them offer discount coupons...

And you have the Right to ask for a USA based Customer Service Rep.!
Or Ask to speak to a Supervisor!

Amazon will not refund your full purchase price, from 3rd party sellers, if you have used a coupon code... They will only refund the actual amount you paid... you have to contact the seller for the difference--- when you have to pay full price to re-order the item...

Excellent service
November 20, 2017

From order to follow up, Amazon shows you what caring customer service is all about. Emails are sent for confirmation of order, delivery and final to make sure you are happy with your product! Wish all retailers would take a page from their book!

We have enjoyed being an Amazon Customer furor years. Always great deals on anything we have ordered.

Since they moved the. Customer Service to the Phillipines, it is an almost impossible To get service. The staff cannot understand the terminology when trying to explain the issues with a product without hours on the phone and having to explain everything to 2 or 3 people.

My First Shop Stop
November 20, 2017

Amazon is one of the best sites online to shop. Easy tracking, packing and delivery is a breeze. Reviews always help make up my mind on the best item to choose. Returns are never a problem, but in all my years of using Amazon, the items I've bought have rarely needed to go back. A great place for sure.

Love It!
November 19, 2017

I have been a member of Amazon Prime for 2 years and I absolutely love it! The delivery is fast. Knowing that the shipping is taken care of I order without thinking about it. Some things are not included under prime so that is a bit of a bummer but most things I have purchased have been. I love the discounts on the books I order for my Kindle. I order many many books. I am very satisfied with the quality of all of my purchases. I can't speak on how returns are handled because I have never returned anything.

Once, I placed an order on Amazon and the seller shipped it without a tracking number. Two weeks went by and my item still hadn't turned up. I contacted customer service and was contacted within a day (or two?) with an immediate offer of a refund.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH AMAZON IS ALWAYS GREAT. THE FEW TIMES I HAD PROBLEMS, AMAZON WAS MY ADVOCATE AND WANTED TO DO EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO ASSURE MY SATISFACTION. I ORDER JUST ABOUT ANYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE FROM AMAZON. I SEND GIFTS, GIFT CARDS, BOOKS, PURCHASES FOR WORK, BUY CLOTHING, FOOD ITEMS, YOU NAME IT! THEY STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS AND PROTECT THE CUSTOMERS.
