Fee Category Reimbursement - Case opened 8 Months Ago and Still no Resolution
Looking for advice......Found out last September that 6-10 ASIN's were charged incorrect referal fee's.
The categories were fixed last September but even after Amazon acknowledged the ASIN's were in the wrong fee category and were getting overcharged by a few percentage points Amazon is still dragging this case along.
We have responded to every request they sent within a couple days. Even re doing excel spreadsheet templates they sent. This was very time consuming on our part as these were high velocity ASIN's and there were a lot of orders that needed reimbursement.
So here we are 8 months later and the only communication i get from Leadership is that an internal team is working on the problem.
In addition Amazon has a system limitation of 10MB per upload on a response at a time and since this excel file had so many line items the file size was much larger than 10MB so i split up the spreadsheet into 6 separate files, organized by ASIN, which they are now saying all information needs to be in one spreadsheet.
I have explained the situation to them multiple times and told them that their system does not allow such a large file to be sent and asked them how to proceed and have gotten no where.
It seems that these request/communications sit in a que for a couple weeks, while i get the same canned messages saying "internal team is working on a solution", then they request what is not possible due to Amazons system limitations.
This is a total stall tactic on Amazon's part and have been very patient but my patience is wearing thin after 8 MONTHS!
Any suggestions?

Hi there @Seller_nPZ6zIxdb5uQG,
I'm sorry that this reimbursement has taken an extended period. For larger reimbursements there is general several reviews and approvals must be completed before they can complete. @Roberto_Amazon is correct that this is with the correct team and under appropriate review. This is still true, however there are many steps to completing and validating this reimbursement.
If you don't see any movement by next Monday (6/9/2025), please reach out to me here and I will see what further escalation options exist, however please note these types of reimbursements cannot generally be expedited. Thank you for your understanding.
