Urgent Help Needed for Violation of Amazon's multiple account policy and account deactivation
Hello everyone,
I have run into an issue with violating the multiple account policy by opening more than one account and would appreciate any guidance or help from Amazon sellers or support.
Here's a brief summary of my situation:
- My first account, Design_creator, was registered 3 years ago and deactivated immediately with purpose of providing a utility bill. After three years of trying to reinstate it, Amazon would not accepting my documents.
- In frustration, I unintentionally violated Amazon's multiple account policy by creating a new DesignCreatorHub account, which was deactivated within a week due to its association with my first account.
- After searching for ways to close my accounts and talking to Amazon buyer support team, I was told I could delete them by following the closure procedure (via https://www.amazon.com/privacy/data-deletion). As a result, I permanently lost access to Design_creator and DesignCreatorHub. Any attempts to log into accounts were accompanied by a message that there is no seller account on such email.
- Believing all my accounts were closed permanently, I registered my current account, DesignCreator, using the same credentials(email, phone etc.) as my first account. In this account, I successfully submitted a utility bill, went through the identity verification process, and have my account activated. However, in a day, the account has now been deactivated with a reason that had been found to be related to an account beginning with Design_creator.
Now I understand that I should not have created any other account and should have only one account.
But in order to reactivate my current account, I first need to successfully appeal all policy violations on any and all other selling accounts that are enforced. How I can appeal on those accounts if they were deleted permanently and I do not have access to? Can they be restored after the data deletion procedure is complete?
Any attempts to contact an Amazon specialist have been difficult: "Call Me Now" feature does not available, as my account deactivated and opening a case results in an automatic rejection.
I sincerely did not intend to violate any rules and am eager to resolve this issue. Please forward my appeal to Account Support so that I can discuss with them on resolving this problem.
Regards,
Andrii Shuvalov

Hello @Seller_HJ5SvEvjDAbgq
Thank you for the information provided regarding the deactivation of your account. I understand the steps taken, and will confirm that creating a new account while you have a deactivated one is a violation of our policy. All associated accounts must be in an active status for you to be able to operate on the platform.
This would be correct. If you do not have access to the previous accounts, you will need to reactivate them by appealing off the current account. You will want to explicitly state that you are appealing for the previous account and provide the information that was originally requested from you. If you experience any issues with this, you can refer back here with the messaging received from our team.
Can they be restored after the data deletion procedure is complete?

Unfortunately, once an account has been deleted through the process that you took, it cannot be recovered. The call me now button is available to sellers who are on the professional selling plan. If the button is not available, you may be on an individual plan. You can verify this through your 'account info' section of seller central.
If you have any additional questions or details to share regarding your situation, continue to refer here for support.
Best,
Atlas
