i think they blocked then unblocked a basic kindle for me - a while ago. What happened was - it was the one my wife used for travel - it vanished and after weeks of searching I called amazon, hoping they could tell us where/when it was last on line - as a possible clue to where she may have left it. They could not do that but I think they suggested blocking it as lost, & I agreed... [ but they may have simply de-registered it - I cannot remember exactly...]
at the time we were thinking she might have left it in a cafe or on a bus, or in a hotel...[ all places that she has left a phone! ]
Anyway, sometime after that, I found out what had really happened, it had been on a bedroom chest of drawers and had slid down though the gap between that and the bedroom wall. So when we were searching for something else & actually took out the bottom drawer - & there it was at the back. Flat battery but otherwise OK.
I called amazon & explained & they kindly turned it back on. but whether that was a blacklist or a simple de-register I don't recall.
