Maybe with the Court Ruleing tho it WILL get their butts in gear to Get a Policy Posted.
What court ruling?
And there is no real worry since Amazon sends out letters before closing accounts.

I believe Katie was referring to this court ruling:

German Court Rules that Amazon Can’t Cut You Off From Your Kindle eBooks. Since Germany and the UK are in the EU, will this affect the UK as well? Maybe you can include this info in another email.

Here's a new story about Amazon closing an account where the person had a balance on his gift card that will be lost. I wouldn't have thought that a gift card balance would be forfeit, so if you ever receive a response you can add that to the list of questions.

Remember that Paul did not want any discussion on why a person's account was closed in this thread. I am linking to it because of the gift card issue.

I don't see that in the linked article. Am I just missing it or is there a followup article?

Here is the Same person ... http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/techn...DDW?li=BBnbfcL

In an update, Do said his account and that of his wife was subsequently canceled after she returned a bicycle purchased in her account.

“All open orders were canceled, I just could access digital content purchased in the account. I had over $100 in my gift card balance and Amazon agreed to send me the refund, I received a check in my mailbox after 1 week,” wrote Do, who calculated that his rate of return for Amazon is about 17% — ordering 104 items and returning 18.

In the Same article I posted....

Ultimately, he said, the account was reopened after he sent a letter to an Amazon account specialist pleading his case. Several readers responded with “banned” stories of their own, along with some sellers who complained of the difficulty of dealing with repeat returners.

Note Amazon Re-Opened his Account.

Your link starts out talking about the same person in my link (Greg Nelson) but ends talking about a completely different person - Tuan Do. Greg Nelson's account was not reopened and his gift card amount was not refunded.

Maybe Your Link is too New ... Amazon just closed his account. He jumped on the News 15 mins of fame. The other guy Do waited to see what would happen got his refund. Do also got his account re-opened.... Wish they Report HOW. Now that Would be useful.
All Current Closure say they still had their Digital Content...but no CS
Which is Why I wanted ALL my Amazon Movies backed up on the Fire. IF I ever get the stupid thing to work right & why I got 128 gig SDCard. [ok that's another thread]
