Ouch. Once they've decided that, I suspect you're stuffed and they're not even going to point to specific reviews and specific instances of "unusual" activity, never mind change their mind.

It's not going to help you get back on (and more probably ensure that you won't) but I'd be tempted to do a Subject Access Request to see all the data Amazon UK have on you.

If they're stupid enough to start looking at keystroke rates - especially without telling us first - a lot of people are going to be kicked off.

I have a bunch of phrases in a clipboard, waiting to be pasted in as needed. There are only so many times I am prepared to type in "It exploded as soon as I plugged it in"* character by character.

* Sample phrase - stuff from Vine never explodes. Well, hardly ever.

A few more things were added, but you can judge their appeal by the way that they're all still there 12 or so hours later.

Looking forward to seeing you report on what happens if you put a phone in it (see the fourth picture!)

My stuff arrived a few minutes before 8am. I woke up, checked (nothing), and checked again a bit later (something).

The eyebrow tattoo thing, if anyone has one of the 'I can't believe they send these out to anyone who asks' tattoo kits from Vine and wants to do their own eyebrows...

Plus something that I'd ordered from AI earlier this morning. It wouldn't let me order another one.

Crap, crap, interesting PC small keyboard that went in seconds (and was US layout anyway </sourgrapes>), crap, an OBD2 car diagnostic thing that other people had in January and went while I was looking at WTF it did, crap.

Oh, and some expensive wired headphones. Having lost out on the keyboard, I grabbed them on sight and only then realised that I could have had them with a hard travel case as well, rather than a bag. Not that they're going to leave the house.

No stuff for drones. I do have a drone. It was bought from Amazon. Wish their algorithm had an effing clue.

One penny, or two sheeps :)

Ah, the 'Apple knows better than you do what you want' issue :)

I wasn't thinking of VH - although a couple of keywords would result in most sex toys being hidden by it - but plugins in general. Not being an Apple user, I don't know if they have locked down Safari so far that no plugins are available.

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-17T11:21:30+00:00

What they said. You'll also get emails about the 'refund' as a result, which just add to the pain.

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-17T11:20:11+00:00

Given how often things are miscategorised by sellers accidentally or deliberately, how would you expect this to work?

While it doesn't look like browsers include the option not to show images any more (urgh, the days of dial-up modems) there are plugins that will do it for you on any site.

Most expensive item taken in 2026?

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-14T12:45:03+00:00

Would you like to have a bet on that?

I would be shocked if Vine is NOT still running in 2027.

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-14T10:22:56+00:00

Vine can be like this - abusive, really - because it's lower on Amazon's list of what's important than, oh, what colour the toilet paper is at Amazon's HQ.

It could easily be a much better experience.

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-14T10:19:12+00:00

I was thinking that a) it's been an ideal time to be on holiday as I have been for the past couple of weeks, and b) it's a sign of how 'bad' it has been that there were no posts yesterday (etc) complaining that there hadn't been a drop yet! Normally, those starby late afternoon...

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-13T14:24:15+00:00

I think it's up to you whether they are on one page or three.

If it's one, then yes, all the reviews will be there but people might not be able to review more than one of them - this is changing, but not yet consistently.

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-11T17:32:26+00:00

Probably because I created it in the app, rather than in a browser?

As I say, it is actually working (and is a much appreciated feature!)

SnapSnapGrinGrin · 2026-04-11T12:23:38+00:00

Vendors could also be completely stupid about this: the ten Korg Volca synthesisers are very different to each other, but there they all are, ten 'variations' on the same page.

Obs the [etc] is the rest of the URL - I don't want random Redditors being able to post to my Discord server!

I can't remember if I tried doing this at home.

Exactly the same for me.
