There will also be an option to start a chat. The phone number (if there is one) and chat feature may be specific to the category you selected.

Resolving Disputes Effectively

Explain your issue and how you would like it fixed as clearly as possible. To get good customer service, give the representative all of the details, including when the problem arose and exactly how it happened. Then, explain to them what you think would be a reasonable solution for the problem. For example, if you got the wrong product in your order, you could say, “On October 28th, I placed an order for a red bath towel. When I received my package today, I opened it immediately to see that I got a gray bathrobe instead. I’d like to return the bathrobe and get the towel that I ordered. Can you help me correct this?” Remember to remain calm and speak clearly. Let Amazon know exactly why you're contacting them and what you think the best solution is to the problem at hand.

Keep all records, confirmation numbers, and shipping notes on hand. The more information you have, the easier it will be to resolve your dispute in an effective manner. Before starting a chat or call, round up all of your information on the sale and review it to make sure you have all of your facts straight. If you've needed to contact Amazon multiple times, get the name of the representative you’ve been talking to and the tracking number for your complaint. This can save you a lot of time when you need to contact them again.

Ask politely to speak to a manager if your representative can't help you. If you're getting nowhere with the current representative, kindly ask if you can talk to their manager. In general, if you're looking for store credit or a high-priced refund, it’s best to request to speak to a manager. You can try saying something like, "I'm sorry, but I think I need to talk to someone else who can more directly help me. Would you be able to transfer me to your manager?”

Be kind and civil in all of your interactions. As you’re talking to a representative, keep in mind that they’re only a human and can only do so much with their power as an employee. Stay calm and collected, even if you’re frustrated, and let the representative know that you really believe that they can help you. Talking to Customer Service If you’re having trouble staying calm, try repeating some of these phrases to communicate politely and effectively with the expert. "I know this isn't your fault, I just want to find a way to resolve this fairly." "Thank you so much for your help so far, I know this wasn't your issue or mistake." "I know this was just an accident, I'm just hoping to find a way we can make sure things end well." "I really enjoy using Amazon, which is why I'm confident we can find a way to fix this issue."

What's your reaction?
