I wanted something that was more convenient and was less bulky than a power strip. Plus I could easily have access to. So I went searching on Amazon as I came across this product and liked what I read about it. It has a lot more usb ports (it has 4) than a power strip, more outlets (9 of them), it's small and portable, it's fire proof, and it's easy to turn on and off simply pushing the button down on top. Oh it even has a feature of a built-in circuit breaker. There is a reset switch for short-circuit/surge/overload protection. This device will automatic power-off if it is overloaded. I could go on and on the it. Talk about a great convenient device. I am happy to say that I am glad I found it and purchased it. Packaging was superb and fast delivery.
Very effective is to me. I like it very much. I like it so so so much. No one can stop me. So it is like to me
It was a wonderful and excellent experience. I benefited a lot from the gift card that I won, as I saved some money and was able to buy films.
I once purchased my shoes. But unfortunately size of shoes is small. I return it. The service providing Amazon is great. It is very easy to return and also I back my refund within 7 days.
A delivery person from amazon fresh. To me a person who is isolating because of an autoimmune disease with morbidity of %100 if I get covid. That is why I got o contact delivery. First the man put groceries right against my front door piling it high. My door opens out in this apt building as my neighbors door does also. So groceries against door make it so you can't get out without pushing food off step.
So as he proceeded doing this I asked him to stop and put in front of bush instead. All he could say was Chinese. Chinese. I finally pushed groceries by opening door. He continued to reptile behind me. I tried to communicate with him. He just kept saying Chinese. He then took off mask and proceeded to get real close to my face and said Chinese. Exposing me at close range and talking. So I tried to talk to him again pointed to door showed him how not to put groceries there. I went and got written notice to not put groceries in front door
The only thing he said was Chinese. He could not speak even a little English. Could not read English and could not even understand spoken English. I have been totally isolating so if I come down with covid I will definitely blame amazon fresh. Is there not enough unemployment that amazon has to employ a person who is unable to communicate in English. During isolation a delivery person should be able to understand their customers for problems. So go ahead call me racist. I want and need to not have my life in danger because you hired someone without any knowledge of the English language. Not one word other than Chinese could he say.
What is going on Amazon Fresh?
I've been an Amazon Prime shopper for several years. Although I love the convenience, the points and the sometimes perks (which I don't often use), it upsets me that some prices like food items, sanitizers and sanitizing spray, rubber gloves (Playtex, specifically) are so much higher in price than at the grocery store. We're lucky to be able to find the products in Amazon, since we can't often find them in our grocery stores, but I really believe there's some price-gouging going on. Example: my hubby was finally able to find store-brand rubber gloves in our local grocery store last week (Wegmans) for $2.99. In an email today, I found Amazon's price for Playtex rubber gloves is $11.14. That's just one item. During the pandemic, I've found several other product prices to be way above traditional grocery store. I can understand a slight increase but many dollars is a little hard to accept.
I want to score them higher because they have a lot to offer, customer service has been helpful on the few occasions I've needed them and with Prime I get free shipping. Here's the catch - the shipping and delivery portion of the order is so awful that it supercedes and cancels out the good. When you order something from other sites, it gives you a delivery date and that's it; the item is there as expected. With Amazon it's a crapshoot! Very, very few orders ever show up on time and that's inexcusable. The cost of shipping is built into the cost of my membership, so remember nothing is free. They give you no recourse for late shipments. I order things with plenty of time but when you're expecting a delivery it should be there. My daughter's birthday present is already TWO DAYS late and the only offer is a refund, but then they reverse the shipment and that's not feasible because I still need the product. They shouldn't be allowed to charge you a fee if they don't hold up their end of the agreement. I'm not ordering from them anymore. It's time to get back to shopping small, local businesses again. Bye, Amazon
Terrible customer service! Ordered some supplements and selected overnight delivery 4am to 8am. Well 8am comes and no package so I use their chat to find out where it is. The agent (sohail) was very rude and told me he would use "simple words" to explain that it may take 2-3 days even though item showed available and would be delivered overnight. As you can imagine my response was slightly colorful at which point he disconnected the chat. Well I had to call and they refunded my money but I'm still SOL on my supplements! Great way to treat your prime customers Amazon!
Afraid to leave Amazon prime membership behind because you are afraid one day they may SHUT YOU DOWN of their own volition just because they don't like what you sell or what you are saying? Please check out ebay, up and coming Flipkart, newegg,.
Let's see what their Amazon decided to go into the China censorship business! You don't get rich if you don't get money dude! Let's say 50 million trump Voters decide to say stuff it Amazon that is a loss of $13.99 a month times 50,000,000 equals almost $700,000,000 a month or over $8 BILLION DOLLARS IN A YEAR! Let's go the full 74 million voters that voted for Trump is a direct loss forever of over $1,000,000,000 A MONTH or $12 BILLION a year Amazon is big but they are not the Federal Government! There ya go Patriots go for it, bye bye Amazon! What would Amazon stock be worth with a loss of over $1Billion a month not even mentioning sales loss? Let's see what their stock is Monday Morning do it CANCEL NOW! A few weeks of missing Amazon is a walk in the park.
I routinely order from Amazon Fresh – the majority of the deliveries have been perfectly acceptable – tonight's missed delivery is the last straw: this is the second time the delivery went to the wrong address!
The driver takes a photo of the bags by the front door – BOTH times, the photo is of the same… and different apartment. [see the photo attached – NOT my apartment!] The labels on the bags have my name and address – someone in that apartment knows they've received the wrong delivery and has been enjoying my food! WTAF.
Dudes, GPS! – How hard can it be to hit the correct address?!
Amazon Customer Service has reordered the same order to be delivered tomorrow. [I can only hope it fking arrives]
I cannot continue to use a service I don't trust. I'm done with Amazon Fresh.
I didn't like the fact that I had to wait 3 days but over all I'm satisfied. Hopefully the waiting period will become shorter.
Being an Amazon prime member has so many bennifits. It is worth becoming a prime member. It's not only the shipping you also get to watch cheap to free movies on prime videos.
Amazon implemented with diliberate intent to cause undue burdensome treatment in how the consumer is put through a process of indefinite length of questioning after losing access to their individual account due to slightest errors or human error such as forgetting the password. The questioning goes in loops and is never satisfied no matter how close and accurate for the answers meant to reject them even when correctly answered as a flaw in system. This leads to loss of money from funds stored in the account for the account holder or merchandise that was ordered and not received because of cancellation. The length of questions and complexity of the process makes it impossible to satisfy the security tests that have to be answered 100 %. If one question out of numerous questions is answered incorrectly it blocks access to the consumer's own account. They don't use the standard process such as sending a code to emails or test to phone as most other companies do. Instead they implemented the most rigorous set of measures that makes it impossible to use the service. This is unfair and to a certain degree inhumane kind of culture in the business practice.
Amazon banned Parler from their web hosting service in a effort to control speech. Amazon is not an elected official that has any authority to decide what I can and cannot read. Amazon is merely a convenient shopping mall. This is the same as your local Abercrombie and Fitch manager telling you what you can and cannot read.
It's absurd.
When you select free shipping, they automatically charge you for prime on your credit card. You have to manually cancel prime. They are very difficult to contact to straighten out the mess. You have to buy enough stuff on amascam every month with shipping costs adding up to over $16 or your losing money. Amazon prime shipping is a scam.
Many opportunities to make some cash, but some sites are not safe. Other sites lead you down a path of offers and if you decline you do not proceed to your reward. Overall I am satisfied and would recommend trying this.
I recently contacted Amazon regarding my account being unable to review. I was pointed to a paragraph on their ToS saying I broke their rules. I've reviewed the ToS in depth and honestly did not break any rules. The only thing that I can think of remotely being correlated is I'm chinese with obviously a chinese last name.
On their ToS they listed 5 reasons with regards to why they ban a customer. Three reasons has to do with receiving product / discount for a review. Since I didn't do that it couldn't be the reason. One reason had to be someone took over my amazon account which did not happen. So that just leaves the last reason (below) which leads me to believe Amazon.com actively utilizes racial profiling of their customers and sellers.
-- Elements of the account indicate a relationship to sellers, publishers, or other reviewers of the products you review.
Based on the above reason, Amazon thinks I have to be related to a seller. I am of chinese descent with an extremely common chinese last name. And because I've purchased inexpensive china made product sold by chinese sellers (which one of these sellers likely have the same last name as me). That allows Amazon to racially link me between those sellers and me.
I think for an ecommerce platform being so big, to exhibit racial profiling is extremely unethetical and injust. People need to speak up more about this type of poor behavior. I have contacted them multiple times and received a generic response. I'm now resorting to posting all over social media accounts and raising awareness for this type of poor behavior
Scam artists, constantly trying to trick regular customers into signing up with a 'free trial' and the option for opting out only in small print, so they will sign up perhaps without even realising, forget to cancel it and end up paying absurd prices every month for rubbish services.
For example, trying to navigate the on demand service and it takes ages to load anything for a start, I find the film I want and Amazon says 'you own it', great! Except that was a lie to trick me into downloading the Disney plus app, which then tried to trick me (in the small print) into signing up at an additional 5.99 per month! Cheeky, dishonest, money-grubbing scum, both Amazon and Disney. Avoid at all costs. Sky aren't perfect either but are a lot more up front and honest than these renegades, and the service actually works smoothly and doesnt rely on rip-off third party apps.
Answer: I concur with all of the above answers except about the kindle. I have contacted Amazon via phone and they were very helpful.
Answer: Bought a hair dryer for my daughter in Melbourne. Arrived no probs.
Answer: Try Walmart! They deliver food too, and they accept EBT as well. I am switching to Walmart now because I ordered food from Amazon Fresh on 4 different occasions, and never received my groceries. I am disabled and I live alone, so I need delivery service to be reliable and dependable. Clearly, Amazon Fresh is neither reliable nor dependable, which sucks.
Answer: I have never shipped or had things shipped to or from Australia. Sorry
Answer: This problem began when Amazon Market Place started up and when I saw how bad it was with sellers selling at 3 to 4 times the full retail price at other online stores, it was a hint for me to stop supporting Amazon Market Place. If its sold by Amazon, I might buy it but I do my utmost to find a lower price so I don't have to buy it from Amazon. More often than not Bestbuy or Staples has it for the same or lower price. Bought an Asus RT AC 5300 from Bestbuy for 500 Canadian and it doesn't sell for less at Amazon. Returns are no hassle 30 day returns and no shipping just take it to a local retail store and that saves the wrapping and shipping.
Answer: Yes I do on the items I purchase and also through google and sitejabber
Answer: It takes longer if you don't pay monthly for Amazon prime.
Answer: The shipping cost is in the listing if that's what you're asking. If you click on new/used, it will be below the cost. If you have Prime, most things are free shipping.
Answer: You answer on the actual question I believe.
Answer: The above answers are good - I agree that a personal contact on the phone is best. - Go to 'Your Account', then click 'Let Us Help You' -then click Help - Then 'need more help',- then click 'Contact Us' - fill out the 3 steps and choose 'more no norder questions, - then clock on phone - from there it will direct you (how long the wait etc and they call you back)
