Missing, Late or Misdelivered Amazon Packages
Start with the tracking information in Your Orders. Amazon recommends confirming the shipping address, checking for a delivery-attempt notice, reviewing available delivery photographs and looking around the expected delivery location.
Check with household members, neighbors, a building mailroom, front desk, parcel locker, garage or other protected delivery area. Some orders are divided into multiple shipments, so confirm whether the missing item has a separate tracking number.
If the package still cannot be located, use the affected order to contact Amazon. Amazon provides additional instructions on its missing package help page.
Amazon Delivery-Driver Complaints
For an unsafe delivery, damaged property, package-handling problem or other driver complaint, save the order number, delivery time, tracking details, photographs and any available video. Submit the complaint through the affected order or Amazon’s Amazon Logistics support information.
Amazon Returns, Replacements and Refunds
Most eligible Amazon returns begin in Your Orders. Select the item and review the available return, replacement, refund or product-support choices. Policies can vary based on the product, seller, condition, delivery date and reason for the return.
Amazon states that many items may be returned within 30 days of delivery, but exclusions and different time limits apply. Review the specific return eligibility shown for the order rather than assuming every product has the same policy.
How to Check an Amazon Refund
- Open Your Orders.
- Locate the returned or refunded item.
- Select the available return or refund status option.
- Confirm the refund amount and original payment method.
- Contact Amazon if the displayed processing period has passed.
Amazon advises that refund timing can vary according to the order type, return shipping, processing time and payment method. In some cases, the complete process can take up to 30 days. Check the current status through Amazon’s refund-status guidance.
Problems With an Amazon Marketplace Seller
Amazon Marketplace orders may be sold and fulfilled by third-party businesses. Begin by contacting the seller through Your Orders so the conversation remains associated with the transaction.
If the seller does not respond or resolve an eligible order problem, review Amazon’s A-to-z Guarantee. Eligible requests can be submitted from the affected order by selecting the problem and following the refund-request instructions.
Keep copies of the listing, seller messages, tracking details, photographs and promised resolution. Amazon advises allowing the seller an opportunity to respond before seeking an eligible A-to-z Guarantee refund.
Amazon Account Access and Security Help
If you cannot sign in, begin with Amazon’s official password-assistance process. Enter the email address or mobile number associated with the account and follow the verification instructions.
When two-step verification fails, try an approved backup method or a previously trusted device. If those options do not work, use Amazon’s account-recovery process.
What to Do After a Possible Account Takeover
- Reset the Amazon password immediately.
- Use a unique password that is not used on another website.
- Review recent and archived orders.
- Remove unknown payment methods, addresses and devices.
- Review account email and telephone information.
- Enable two-step verification.
- Contact Amazon about unauthorized orders or account changes.
- Notify the card issuer or bank about transactions you cannot identify.
Unknown Amazon Charges
An unfamiliar Amazon charge may relate to a recent order, a delayed shipment, a digital purchase, an authorization, a Marketplace transaction or an order placed by another person using the account. Review Amazon orders and transactions before disputing the charge.
If the transaction remains unfamiliar, secure the account and contact Amazon through its official support system. Amazon’s payment-issues guidance explains common authorizations, declined payments and unknown charges.
