This is not quite a reply to OP. But I got banned from Amazon.it in a very surreal manner.

I got an email saying that I needed to verify my credit card info because some 'security team' had flagged a transaction as suspect. I was buying Christmas presents for parents in Italy. It gave me a link to do so. But when I clicked on the link, it would ask me to login. Which I could not do, because the account was already frozen. Dozens of phone calls later, I just gave up. I kept running into the wall of them wanting me to upload something proving my billing address was correct, while preventing me from doing so by freezing the account. Despite escalating the problem to various Amazon teams, no-one was willing, or able, to solve it. To date, I cannot access that account.

Did not have any Kindle items on it, it was just an account I used for presents. But still, a surreal experience.
