    @I_Am_Ilemona @AnthonyEhilebo This is exactly why INEC said that there was a glitch in AWS during the 2023 elections. Something that Amazon denied yet it stood at the election tribunals and was used as basis of technicalities in favor of APC .

    Think you OWN your Kindle books? You don't. You license them. Amazon can remove them. Digital games? Same. Smart home device from a bankrupt company? Brick. The gap between "owning" and "having access to" is one of the biggest consumer rights issues of our time.

    @its_revontulet The point of indie is to share stories with the world, not to sell merch. Merch is just the only way to get consistent funding bc production is expensive. Glitch went to Netflix, which let Spindle go to Amazon. Now they’re trying something new. I’m choosing to celebrate it

    @SDDonovan I prefer to buy paperbacks if they are reasonably priced. Hardcover if I can get them signed. I’m having a bit of an issue with ebooks. Many are exclusively on Amazon and I much prefer Kobo. If an ebook is DRM-free, it’s not an issue.

    Slowly building out this DVD library which has been a long time project. If you buy the items that have 2-4 movies on the disc, you can get it down cheaper than any streaming option. Plus if you do Amazon lockers you get 10% cash back which can be used to get more DVDs.

    @AmazonHelp It is difficult to keep track of messages here and that with 1 hr time frame. Why don’t you have a customer care number like it was before. I have paid for an item and got wrong one and that to twice…… never expected such problem happening at your platform

    @AmazonHelp Issue still unresolved despite escalation on ur given link Order ID: 171-1552310-6612341 Pickup failed 9+ times since 28 March. Refund promised by your executive if not picked by 12 April, but not honored. This is harassment. Only option left Filing complaint in consumer court .

    @amazonIN @amazon @AmazonHelp can you please tell me why my order is not being delivered yet after 4days order & payment done. JBL Tune FLEX 2 earbuds was ordered and not received yet for Pune location,need compensation & clarification on this issue quickly as possible asap.

    Most Amazon sellers hire a VA expecting to save 20 hours a week. After 30 days, they've spent 40 hours on training, corrections, and redoing tasks - and they're convinced VAs just don't work. The VA wasn't the problem. The onboarding was.

    While Flipkart and Amazon crush India's quick commerce upstarts, many are too busy battling giants to fix their clunky sites—big mistake. A robust online presence isn't just a shield; it's your secret weapon. Level up yours, or watch the war end early. #WebDesign #SmallBusiness

    @Sonicninj From what I understand, Glitch was constantly running out of budget, and part of sending their series to Netflix or Amazon was to try to make more money

    @RazerSupport Hello, I bought a Razer Blackshark V2 Pro 2023 Edition in November 2025, I've had issues with it and would like to use the warranty to either get a replacement or my money back. I bought it on Amazon France (I'm French), how can I contact Razer support for this?

    @BiggDebbiecakez Imagine Amazon showed you and told you how great the product was you saw the pictures and thought hmmm I should buy this then it proceeds to be made cheap and easily broken or a shortcut

    @tajudine2013gm2 @nypost We all buy from Amazon. Almost every product I get is Made in China (cheap). If we stop buying Chinese made products developed by children and women there I think they’d be in trouble. Bezos needs to step in and step up.

    Sooooooo in March an @amazon driver delivered a doorbell to my house. They stole a $450 crystal off my house front. I contacted Amazon and police immediately. I was told a series of steps to rectify the issue. I have heard no response. It’s been a month.

    @AmazonHelp This should stop !! In this case you have shipped and you yourself cancelled by order due to issues at your end ! So do you think it is ethical for customer to bear the MP fees. I waited for order for days and at end due to internal reasons you cancelled it

    Very disappointing experience with @AmazonIN @AmazonHelp @amazon Ordered 2 kurta-pyjama sets but received only a pyjama. Requesting urgent resolution and better quality checks to avoid such issues. Order details can be shared via DM. #CustomerService

    @AmazonHelp @AmazonIN Worst service ever! AC pickup (Order: 406-6811851-6446748) delayed again & again. Docs submitted, still no resolution. Call center useless. Stop harassing & fix this NOW! #AmazonIndia

    "Links aren't mechanical. They aren't outputs. They aren't artifacts you generate. They're endorsements. And endorsements require risk." That's from my book Authority First. (The first edition made it to #2 best seller for link building category on Amazon!). AI can write content in seconds. It can draft outreach emails. It can mimic tone and structure. What it cannot do is earn an endorsement. Transfer trust. Stake a reputation. As content becomes cheap, judgment becomes valuable. As outreach becomes noisy, relationships become rare. The agencies still trying to scale link building with automation are solving the wrong problem. The real skill gap in SEO isn't writing or research anymore. It's judgment.

    @AmazonHelp I’ve already contacted customer support 4 times, but each time they cut call before I can even explain the issue. All I hear are scripted/AI-like responses saying “it will be delivered,” while the order status clearly shows the replacement is being returned to the seller

    8. Missing Keywords (The Exact-Match Trap) Most ATS systems use literal keyword matching. Not AI. Not "understanding." "JavaScript" ≠ "JS" "AWS" ≠ "Amazon Web Services" "Project management" ≠ "managing projects" If the job description says "Kubernetes" and you wrote "container orchestration" — the system doesn't connect them. Fix: Open the job description. Copy the exact terms they use. Mirror them in your resume. Include both forms: "Search Engine Optimization (SEO)." Resumes that mirror the exact job title from the posting dramatically outperform those that don't. Some recruiters estimate the difference at 5–10x more interview callbacks.

    A complete blockade of Hormuz means induction stoves may soon be sold out on Amazon and the Nifty may slip further down. Looks like the worst is not over yet 😡

    @amazonIN folks you're amazing! But one issue is troubling me - I've 2 accounts of @amazonpay for Amazon personal account and Amazon business account with the same mobile number and email id. Now, when I try to pay on some app via Amazon Pay, it by default latches to Amazon business account. How can I make it different accounts? I want my Amazon personal account to be default for paying via Amazon Pay
