BAD costumer service
December 24, 2015

The shipping was took age (almost one month) and everytime I called the costumer service they didn't know what was going on and what to say except that I should wait and be patient.

SO FAR SO GOOD
December 24, 2015

I am really pleased with Amazon. I have ordered from them twice. But one thing they did I was not pleased with was,, I put an item in the cart. Next thin I knew, I checked my checking account an they had shipped the item.The only reason I didn't object was because I really did need the item, but I was going to order later. But I will give them a pass this time

Positeively awesome.
December 23, 2015

I order many things off of Amazon throughout the year. I have been dealing with this company for quite a while now. I have only had a few incidences with an order that was not right but Amazon was right on top of it. Excellent place to do business with.

Always Satisfied
December 23, 2015

Never disappointed with the service I receive. I always get the products when they say I will. If a return is needed and a refund is to be processed, it happens quickly. They update me via email on the status of everything. Never disappointed.

I just love Amazon Prime because I got to shop and have things delivered in 2 business days and not have to worry about anything getting to me on time. Also I didn't have to deal with long lines or high prices. And Amazon is a one stop shopping place.

LOVE!
December 23, 2015

I LOVE amazon! I order from there just about every week:-) Love Love Love. And customer service is WONDERFUL. Never had an issue whatsoever! If something gets lost, they ship out another no problem. If something is damaged in the shipping, they refund or send another for free. It's great!

Amazon is amazing. I'm not surprised that they've grown like a weed. So far I haven't regretted any buys there, although I've probably paid a few bucks more than if I'd researched more.

I'm glad they're trying to revolutionize delivery. UPS has repeatedly let me down as a consumer so they need more competition, not less. I don't write 5-star reviews. Good!

I liked it so much. I had to wait for delivery a little bit longer than expected - that`s the only minus

I was a Prime member for years and I had pretty much good experiences. Fast shipping, easy to return and change.
Prime membership is now too expensive so I declined the payment. Still working good when we spend more than $35.
Overall I have the feeling they are improving their business.

Amazon used to earn 5 stars I dropped it to 4 since I have had a few shipping issues because they now do some shipping with Ontrac. I do like that if something is not right
You call their customer service and they are always very helpful to make it right. I am an online shopper and enjoy the benefits of prime. The tracking of your orders is also really nice.

Ordered a Christmas present on November 24th. Tried tracking the package with the same result... 'product uploaded to database'. Well by December 10th, I was writing customer service, and given the same response..."we will follow up"... but nobody ever got back to me. I wrote to them 10 times up until today. Same result. I called only to be informed that I would not be receiving my package. No explanation. Now a Christmas gift that my daughter had wanted so bad, she will not be getting. Stay as far away from this company as possible.

Tried and Trusted

I have been using Amazon for over 10 years to buy items and gifts of all sorts. The best thing about them is that they allow you to return anything so buy from them with confidence.
