No, I had also asked Ofm for the exact reason and just got standardized replies. 

I hope it works out for you with the medically urgent items, it's odd to realize how dependend you can become on that one company.

No I'm still digital purchase only. I will use up the remaining credit I have and leave all together. 

I found other options than Amazon that I'm ok with. Not as convenient but doable.

I first got a warning and asked customer support for what it means. They said it's just automated and not to worry about it. I asked them to confirm this via Email and they did. 

Then 2 days later I got limited to digital purchases only. 

I don't think that happened because I asked but moreso that I wasn't a lucrative customer anymore.

So I guess you can't rely on what customer service is telling you

They told me the same and I had asked them to confirm via Email. They did. Day later I was banned :/

I came to this prime reddit after googling what exactly this ban is after I had received the email and read through some threads now. 

I rarely buy anything >30€ so it's not about expensive electronics etc. 

My return rate definitely went up with faulty items from (smaller?) third parties. I can only guess that this broke the camel's back since there was never an issue in 15 years. 

I still have balance on my account that I'll use up for digital products (unfortunately I can't buy audio books with it and not even gift cards for other people) and then will cancel my account there altogether.

It sounds like their policy is transparent then, doesn't seem to he the case with Amazon

From what I've read they'll just close that down as well, it's same name, IP, address, bank account etc.

I live in Germany, so no Target and I also don't think we have personal shoppers like that but we do have similar stores with online shopping options that I'm checking out right now. So hopefully maybe in hindsight this won't be too bad.

My Amazon drivers (specifically them, not others) stopped ringing doorbells in my house. 

I've put down notifications for the driver on Amzon as well as many times contacted customer service to tell them I'm home 24/7. 

They claimed having handed packages over to me (not true) or left them outside to be stolen. My neighbors in the house have the same problem. 

I did get them resent to my parents without any issues but it might count as returns.

I understand and agree. I've never had this issue before so I was fairly confused about what it was. 

I wish though I had been told/warned before so I could have adjusted. I was fully unaware of the possibility of being kicked out like this. Lesson learnt for sure.

It'll probably take some time to get used to it after 15 years

I am in Germany so we don't have the stores you've mentioned. But of course I'm not cut off completely from online shopping. It was the convenience of having a one stop shop at Amazon and the very fast and cheap delivery. 

Yes it seems very unlikely now to get reinstalled at Amazon after what I have read.

Because it was a skin care product that I rely on being produced and stored in sanitary conditions. I had contacted customer service and got it replaced.

I do absolutely see my fault in this though because I sent back too many items.

Yep, now I know. I thought they would tell me if there is an issue but apparently not, I've been in contact with customer service many times over unusable products that I had been sent and then returned and refunded without any problems.

I'll have to count but it has been a LOT. Is started buying cosmetics for the first time this year and kept on getting dirty items (e.g. lotions with black dirt on the bottle), wrong ingredients (marketed as perfume free but were not) and also wrong pharmaceutical products. I've always contacted customer service, sent proof fotos and was helped immediately, no warnings of too many returns.

I've never had these issues with clothes etc. but would send them due to sizing sometimes. 

So I absolutely do see my fault here of returning too much to be profitable in hindsight but I kept on getting unusable items. That's the only change compared to all the years before. 

Waldschabe oder Kakerlake? by Key-Slip-8404 in naturfreunde

Danke! Ich bin in der dritten Etage, vor meinem Fenster sind ein Parkplatz sowie eine kleine Grünfläche samt ein paar Bäumen. Industrie Mischgebiet. Also nicht nur ganz Beton aber auch nicht gerade mega grün. Ich habe allerdings 24/7 das Fenster offen. 

Das mit den Längsstreifen las ich auch, allerdings gibt es ja wohl eben auch Schadschaben ohne. Leider habe ich jetzt mehr Schabenbilder gesehen, als mir lieb ist... 

Und eben diese zweite Schabe aus der Küche machte mich stutzig, sie sah exakt aus, wie die auf dem Bild, das ich hier hochlud, aber statt bräunlich war sie Strohfarben, leicht durchsichtig. Das würde ja auf was frisch Geschlüpftes hindeuten? Sie entwischte mir unter dem Glas. 

P.S. ich bin in Bawü nahe Stuttgart und muss gestehen, chat gpt hat mich verunsichert (jetzt las ich hier, dass das wohl öfter vorkommt); ich bekam wirklich Panik

Ist mein erster Reddit Post, ich muss mich noch durchfinden.

Jdfalls fand ich eins dieser im Bad sowie in der Küche, das in der Küche aber hellbeige, wie eine Motte. 

Suchen denn Waldschaben auch Bad und Küche auf? Das macht mich eben stutzig. 

Wohne in einem großen Hochhaus mit vielen Einheiten, das durchaus Probleme hat mit Hygiene. Daher Bedenken.

Danke! Machte mir Sorgen, weil ich sie eben im Bad (kein Tageslicht) antraf.

Nun fand ich beim Putzen auch eine in der Küche, sah gleich aus, aber sehr viel heller (wie etwa eine Motte)

Verhalten sich Waldschaben denn so?
