For 5 months Amazon KDP seems to be doing everything to prevent my "fictional" novel from being read. After not posting any ads or Sales Data, inflating the price by one hundred times, and refusing multiple video book trailers, they reduced the Look Inside feature to only show 5% of the text rather than the standard 20%. When I brought this to their attention and included a screenshot only showing up to page 13 of 260 (about 5%), and a screenshot showing their standard rule of showing 20%, I received a reply saying "We're no longer accepting requests to increase or decrease the reading sample on books. Your book will continue to show a default percentage of the contents to help customers make purchasing decisions, 10% for eBooks and 20% for paperback and hardcover."
So I again contacted KDP Support and again made it very clear that Amazon was only showing 5% instead of the standard 20%, and I received a reply saying, "We need a little time to look into the problem with technical team and manually fix it. We'll reply and send you more information within 2-3 business days."
8 days later they said they'll fix it in 2 to 3 days.
Then the price of the paperback went back up to $180.60 and after reporting that a week ago it still shows "Currently Unavailable".
As for not posting ads, after waiting 2 months they did not explain why no ad impressions showed over 24 days, gave no reasons for denying all book trailers, and to date, the ads show a total of 8 clicks.
If you are thinking of publishing a book on Amazon, make sure it doesn't have a plot involving a group of elites who control the media and don't want decentralized currencies and reasoning AI that dissipates knowledge, stops fake news, disinformation, misinformation, identifies corporate and government corruption, and more.
I was contacted by someone who was obviously American and sold the bill of goods. After I paid the enhanced marketing fee my account was transferred to a sales scoundrel from New Delhi(no offense to good Indian people). He extolled the virtues of my book and his marketing team and sold me on a website I have never had access to and they have never worked on. I got an editor named "Milli" who is brain dead and barely speaks English. Then they had the nerve to try to sell me an audio book plan! These idiots know as much about publishing as I know about astrophysics. Scammers/no contracts/no books/lots of empty promises. "Ray" "Bob" "Milli" "Jeff" scam family
Excellent book! So much to learn from Jackie! It is amazing that breathing is something we take for granted, and never think of it!

I began working with AMZ and it began alright, but as time went up work was slow, communication was not great. They had me send money through Zelle and was unable to get my refund of $2,500 called to discuss and they wanted me to work with them again for another charge and refusing to provide refund. They explained that I should not use Zelle for payment, that it was difficult to get money refunded and it was a scam, that many other companies claim to be Amazon publishing and are scams; however, initially asked if it was the right company I was calling the response was, yes you called the right place and went into no refund due to paying through Zelle. I do not recommend this company what so ever.
