AMAZON - Train your staff! Seller Support getting rapidly worse
Honestly, all I ask is they actually read the case notes and look at attachments. Is that really too much to ask?
If anyone with any sort of clout at Amazon happens to be reading this, just spend 10 minutes reading some Support Cases, the replies from Amazon Support Staff are literally pointless.
This is just 1 example, I gave up.

The forum won't even let me post a heavily edited version of the chat log... Sigh.
You'll have to take my word it was a circle cluster mess over a very simple query.
One of our ASINs in a certain region is only showing the FBM offer, despite the FBA offer being active.
It went a little like this:
So you are having issue with variations?
No
So you are having issues with the pricing on the offer?
No
Do you need help creating an FBA shipment?
No, gives up.

Yes, I'm afraid I have to agree that with seller support, reading the case notes and looking at attachments really is too much to ask.
I think they do train their staff - they train them to pick a 'best fit' pre-prepared answer and not to actually engage in any conversation that might enable the seller to get their point across and obtain a solution. Every single one of their solutions require you the seller to simply go away.
There are so many threads and posts about the gross incompetence of seller support, you'd think someone at Amazon would take it up. Unfortunately there is zero accountability within Amazon, and in my 19 years as a seller, it has only gotten steadily worse. I'm sorry I can't offer any optimism.

There is no seller support, just bots closing your case to keep amazons metrics down.

This is true and convinces me if they wanted to improve it then they would have done.

100% Most useless support ever. I'd rather wait 3 days and get a competent reply than this AI bu11sh1t all the time , always passing the blame, never getting to tier 2 support.

Seller support is a complete waste of time. I regularly have listings removed because they are toys which contain Li-ion batteries or some other stupid reason, like they are a choking risk, which can take me weeks, loads of emails and messages and sometimes phone calls to get reinstated, and I sell bedding, towels and fleece blankets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
