Let’s cut to the chase: you won't find any Amazon contact number seller support anywhere on the web, not even in the deepest recesses of the internet. It is not posted on the Amazon Services Central Forum or any Amazon website. 

But what if you need to settle an Amazon Seller Account suspension? How will you reach out to Amazon?

Amazon has no longer offered the public a dedicated Seller Support contact number. Instead, they've set up a systematic approach for their troubled sellers to be able to reach out to them. This article will tell you how to communicate with Amazon customer service when resolving an issue—such as appealing for your account’s suspension.

18 Tips to Write an Appeal Effectively

  1. Check and solve any pending issues you have before writing a plan of action.
  2. Write a detailed Amazon suspension appeal letter with a plan of action before the deadline.
  3. Be apologetic, sincere, clear, and persuasive when writing your appeal letter.
  4. Don't blame Amazon or the buyer.
  5. Take responsibility for the mistake, even if it is not your fault.
  6. Avoid sending follow-up emails or asking about the status of your appeal or case.
  7. Ensure that all your products comply with Amazon's policies to avoid being suspended again.
  8. Don't forge or alter the supporting documents that you will attach to the email.
  9. Point out each issue or question you have separately to make sure Amazon Seller Central Support representatives understand each of your concerns clearly. 
  10. Avoid sending questions or issues in bulk because it will only make the waiting time longer since your case needs to be solved by different departments.
  11. Be specific, direct to the point, and detailed with your explanations, whether it's a direct email or via Seller Central.
  12. Use proper grammar and sentence structure. Don't use flowery words and write your sentences comprehensively.
  13. Mention the solutions you've tried so far so you won't waste time getting suggestions you have already tried.
  14. List down all your issues before contacting the Seller Support team to avoid forgetting them, especially when you are in the middle of a conversation on the phone.
  15. Deliver the email to the right department to prevent it from getting lost in the sea of emails.
  16. Remember that Amazon will call you and not the other way around. Ensure your line is open at all times.
  17. The phone number must match the one you've registered on your Seller Central account. Amazon will check the phone number from your records; they will ignore your case if it is a different number.
  18. Before a phone call, prepare your Seller Account details and billing information because the representative might ask you about these for verification purposes. Plus, a pen and paper for note-taking.
