@AmazonHelp I am no longer asking for 'links.' I am demanding a manual override from a senior compliance manager to release my Amazon Pay balance and Echo Studio. @JagoGrahakJago @ConsumerIndia

[Felix Bast (he/him), PhD @ExaltFibs]

@AmazonHelp It has been 7 days since your team admitted in writing (Jan 8, 4:46 PM) that my account block was an ERROR. Yet, my orders are still randomly auto-cancelled. I have now filed a formal complaint with the National Consumer Helpline.

@AmazonHelp I have now filed a formal complaint with the National Consumer Helpline. NCH Docket No: 8516541

[Felix Bast (he/him), PhD @ExaltFibs]

@AmazonHelp Waseem, your 'Account Specialist' team ALREADY admitted the error in writing on Jan 8 (4:46 PM). I have followed all your links for 7 days, yet your system remains broken. My account is in a 'Zombie Flag' state.

[Felix Bast (he/him), PhD @ExaltFibs]

@AmazonHelp I am not looking for standard help; I need a senior manager to manually override the 'Zombie Flag' that your automated system is ignoring. Please escalate this docket to your Compliance Team immediately. @JagoGrahakJago @ConsumerIndia

@AmazonHelp Waseem, that link is useless for me, i did not forget my password/cant sign into account etc. Those are generic help. Read my specific issue in above messages and respond
