It was all good before until I tried to send payment with amex gc. failed twice, I gave up and used a real citibank cc, again, failed twice, so I called citi and was told the payment was not yet attempted on their side (i.e., no activity at all) Finally, I asked my friend to send me a payment (his account is in good standing), and found it surprisingly again it failed. I thought I am blocked so I called amazon payment finally, but the representative says my account is fine and suspects things wrong with the other party (recepient or sender) -- I readly doubt as my friend told me all his sends and receives are approved except the one to mine.
All failed payments on my account, send or receive (told by my friend), will always start with "pending" for 5-6 hours until it went to "failed"
Strangest thing I ever had, what could I do? Abandon and move on?
Thanks
Maybe you can send Amazon an email to close down the account and then reopen it ?
